@hBy2Py I guess you can edit in a BOLDED, ITALICISED, CAPITALISED SECTION at the top of Martin's question, telling people that the first event is scheduled for XYZ time on ABC day.
I think it's best to just create a chat event for that time. It should show up on the main site. Otherwise, just create a new event. Leave the header event like it is for now, or we need to edit it every time (cc @orthocresol)
Yeah, agreed. If we don't move forward with this, we'll postpone too often...
While I am trying to rid us of the reaction tag, I come across a couple of questions that have a negative score and thus could be classified as bad or a bad fit for our site. Usually such questions will be removed eventually as abandoned unless they attract an answer.
Sometimes these questions...
Either definition is acceptable, as long as you clearly identify relationship between the calculated rate value $R$ and the rates-of-change for each of the species in the system.
In case (1), you've effectively calculated the rate constant defined as:
$$
R_1 = k_1\ce{[NO]^2[O2]}
= -{\mathrm...
If someone could clear this up for me that would be great. Here are my thoughts: if an equilibrium reaction is constantly producing both reactants and products, how do you decide which is which? Here is an example question:
Given the reaction, at equilibrium, it was found that $[\ce{C}] = \pu...
I think you can just edit the question in such cases.
Most of these users are inactive anyway
I've edited Q's to fit the A's before
Sorry but I have shifted the Walsh diagram and your discussion of the frontier orbitals to my answer. I really don't wish to steal any credit from you (everything you said is 100% correct), but this question is old and the current answers have zero discussion of the Walsh diagram and frankly, do not really match the question. By moving around the information I am only hoping to present a more logical flow of discussion for future visitors. — orthocresol ♦Sep 7 '16 at 17:33
It was either that, or flagging every other answer as NAA.
Finally, TRE is back, and we've got stuff to do.
The next TRE will be held at 2017/04/08 16:00 – 18:00 UTC. Register for the event here.
This episode will feature the following tags:
reaction questions: As we see fit, we will retag ones that are worth it, delete ones that deserve it, and ...
I made the announcement specifically to enable everyone to edit as much as they want during april... i'm not moving away from that. The chat event is a gimmick, it's already featured. when there is some meta stuff happening on the mother site it's not my fault... also that editing thing is blocking the space.
I am officially changing the post to a tag-blacklist-request.
I think, and so far there was no objection, that it is a meta-tag, and that it is not helpful. Unlike homework or reference-request it basically only serves as a placeholder. I would say it is on par (maybe a tiny bit better) with ...
I was a reading a book that a senior gave me, it said that redox is a type of reaction in which both reduction and oxidation take place. I know about oxidation but not reduction. After googling reduction reaction I found it's simply just the opposite. But then how can a reduction and oxidation ta...
@hBy2Py Ok, I've just numbered them in sequential order, I think that's slightly easier for people to follow. I've also taken out ~14 or so questions which had been cleaned up after last Sunday.
cleanup action chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/41769/… Nuked. This guy posted the same question twice (note that the duplicate question was posted by the same person), it should have been nuked long ago. (ortho)

Please explain why, thank you very much.
