@Nova be patient, someone might answer it

Nova

Okay

pH13

@Nova just assume that you are right ... no one would post an answer with "yes, you are right" because that is not considered to be a good answer. you might get a comment on that.

Nova

Okay, I just thought it was an important conceptual question that a lot of my classmates wanted verification with. I attempted to answer it as I wrote it to illustrate my approach to the problem so future readers could relate.

@Nova what do you consider to be the theoretical yield?

Nova

The amount of product that should be produced

pH13

I think that Beerhunter is right and it should be 100%. If you have by-products, those 100% are simply lowered but that does not change the calculation.

@user36790 I said something in the g-block elements, maybe that's it. I was about to make myself known, when I got distracted by my work :D

Soooo.... I'm back.

user116211

@Martin-マーチン O.O

user116211

You know, Martin, there is another man who is really like you- means you have alike faces.

Martin - マーチン

There is? A doppelgänger?

Who?

user116211

You know, under these hats, there is not as much hair left as with this guy ;)

That's why the hats...

@Martin-マーチン O.O

Martin - マーチン

Also, he is probably tall and muscular... and I am... well... not.

I could maybe be his Mini-Me

user116211

BTW, he is Brandon McCullum, the retiring captain of Black Caps- the New Zeleand Cricket team.

user116211

@Martin-マーチン Your face and his quite the same!

@Martin-マーチン You are 100 yrs old??

user116211

Don't underestimate yourself!

Martin - マーチン

I won't... would be cool to meet him though...\

user116211

@Martin-マーチン :D

user116211

You follow cricket?

Martin - マーチン

No. It's not popular in my country. I like football (soccer)

user116211

4:54 AM

@Martin-マーチン o.O

Martin - マーチン

It's hard to understand the rules if you have no people around that actually are able to explain them to you

user116211

@Martin-マーチン Cricket runs in our vein ;P

user116211

@Martin-マーチン Agreed.

Martin - マーチン

@user36790 From that statement I would guess you are from India or Pakistan :)

user116211

Germany national cricket team

The Germany national cricket team is the team that represents the country of Germany in international cricket matches. The German Cricket Federation, which organises the team, has been an associate member of the International Cricket Council since 1999, having previously been an affiliate member from 1991. The national team made its international debut against Denmark in 1989, playing as West Germany. It has since played regularly in European Cricket Championship tournaments, as well as twice in the lower divisions of the World Cricket League. In 2001, Germany also competed in the ICC Trophy (now...

Cricket in Germany

Cricket in Germany has a history going back to 1850, when a group of people from England and the United States founded the first German cricket club in Berlin. Several more teams were later founded in Berlin and the rest of Germany, as well as a national federation. Cricket lingered on over the following century, with occasional visits of German players to England and British and other foreign teams touring in Germany, but only when it got a foothold in the German universities in the 1980s did the number of German cricket clubs and players start to grow again. Nevertheless much of the cricket to...

Martin - マーチン

I met a guy from Pakistan who was really into cricket, and he showed me some footage and then said, did you see that? I was like yes, but why is it special and he could not explain...

I read a few things about the rules, sounds like fun :D

user116211

@Martin-マーチン what video

user116211

Even I didn't know Germany has a national team authorised by ICC

Martin - マーチン

4:59 AM

I few years back there was a post-doc from india, and he was into cricket, i think he played in the backyard with his son

@user36790 me neither

user116211

o.O

Martin - マーチン

I don't remember the video, must have been last year or the year before in a tournament

and there was on guy bowling and the batter hit the ball to the outer bounds and caught it in the air but he was leaving the field so he threw it in the air again while still jumping, rushed back in the field and caught it again...

It really looked very athletic, but I did not really understand what was the consequence of it and the guy could not explain it.

user116211

@Martin-マーチン This is typical ;P

Martin - マーチン

He went bat crazy about it... maybe it was a guy from pakistan and maybe it was a winning move... i don't know

user116211

Enjoy this Aussie taking a splendid catch.

Indian players, SA players are the most athletic fielders in cricket.

user116211

And Indian Players are one of the richest community in sports world.

user116211

We are mad for them, actually.

user116211

But the fact is,

user116211

they don't represent India in any game

user116211

but represent BCCI, the cricket organization.

user116211

5:10 AM

But that doesn't matter ;D

Martin - マーチン

haha, isn't that the case in many sports?

user116211

@Martin-マーチン means?

Martin - マーチン

well in football, the players also represent clubs rather than countries

user116211

@Martin-マーチン o.O

Martin - マーチン

then when the world cup or something comes along you have a national team, but that represents the association

user116211

5:14 AM

O.O

Martin - マーチン

for example, there is no UK football team, because england, scottland, northern ireland and wales have their own football associations

so in the world cup they represent them, not the UK

user116211

@Martin-マーチン that country is intricate.

user116211

The English founded cricket and they never World Cup!!

user116211

While its colonies are winning more than one time

Martin - マーチン

true, but it's gotten a lot more simple than a couple of decades ago

Martin - マーチン

Haha, the english founded football and only won the worlcup once ;)

user116211

Aus-5

user116211

@Martin-マーチン That was controversial too ;P

Martin - マーチン

true

So when the ball is caught in the field in cricket, the bowler is out, right? That's why it is a big deal.

the batter is out?

@Martin-マーチン generally out; but depends on other factors too.

Martin - マーチン

World cup 2010, the revenge ;)

@user36790 I think cricket is really an interesting sport, yet the ball is so small and so fast, it's almost impossible to see

user116211

@Martin-マーチン it's really heavy.

user116211

@Martin-マーチン lol

user116211

if you can't stop the ball or catch the ball properly, you may get severe strain.

user116211

cut or injuries like the disjoining of the thumb from the mainhand. So severe

Martin - マーチン

5:30 AM

I've seen pictures where players did get hit in the head with that ball, that looked very ugly

it's basically shooting with cannon balls

user116211

@Martin-マーチン yeh! Many lives gone that way.

user116211

The most famous case is Phil Hughes of Aus .

Phillip Hughes

Phillip Joel Hughes (30 November 1988 – 27 November 2014) was an Australian Test and One Day International (ODI) cricketer who played domestic cricket for South Australia and Worcestershire. He was a left-handed opening batsman who played for two seasons with New South Wales before making his Test debut in 2009 at the age of 20. Hughes scored his first Test century in March 2009, aged 20, in his second Test match for Australia, opening the batting and hitting 115 in the first innings against South Africa in Durban. This made Hughes Australia's youngest Test centurion since Doug Walters in 1965...
