- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
What is the function of Cl-?
It plays an important role in salinization (dissolved salts in
water supply) & road salt, urbanization.
What is the function of So42-
Used for protein synthesis and metabolism, rarely limiting & many sources of SO4 are tied to acidification, but SO4 itself is not toxic.
What is the function of HCO3-?
Concentration determines buffering capacity of aquatic
systems & a key component of inorganic carbon pool in aquatic systems.
What happens with the cation exchange if seawater displaces fresh water?
Tthe dominant ions change from CaHCO3 in fresh water to
CaCl2 in the displacing seawater.
What is effective concentration?
If water contains a lot of ions, the ions are electrostatically attracted to each other, these attractions hinder the ions to participate in reactions. Therefore the concentration is lower than the actual concentration.
When is the activity coefficient (gamma) low? (2 points)
2. When the charge of the ions is higher (2+ instead of 1+)
Why are ion activities important?
What are functions of cations and anions?
Buffering capacity, or micronutrient, to protein synthesis.
What are the main sources of major ions in water?
Weathering, atmospheric deposition and environmental
processes.
What is the saturation state of a solid in solution an indicator for?
Its tendency to further dissolve, or to precipitate. It is an important parameter to assess ocean acidification.
Why is the arctic ocean sensitive to acidification? (3 points)
1. Due to cold temperatures: Carbonate minerals are more soluble in cold water & Colder T increases solubility of CO2, which enhances carbonate mineral dissolution too.
2. Relative high river input: Rivers often have low concentrations of inorganic C relative to the ocean (= lower buffering capacity) 3. Melting sea ice: dilutes nearshore waters.
How is salinity largely determined?
By the sum of major anions and cations.
Name three weathering inputs
1. Importance of carbonic acid: CO2 + H2O «H2CO3«H+ + HCO3
2. Carbonate rock waters are rich in Ca2+, Mg2+, and HCO3- (calcite vs. dolomite)
3. Silicate rocks have diverse compositions, but weather more slowly
Name three atmospheric inputs
1. Inputs from ocean water: Na+, Cl-, but also Mg2+ and SO42-
2. Dust deposition f: Ca2+
3. Pollution: SO42-, Cl-
Name two environmental inputs
1. Biological uptake (Ca, Mg, SO4) and redox (SO4)
2. Pollution/fossils
What happens if the IAP is lower or higher than the Keq?
If IAP is higher than Keq: reaction goes towards reactants
Where does the ocean spatial variability mostly depends on?
What are the two sources of dissolved inorganic carbon to freshwater systems?
2. Weathering (and the production of bicarbonate via rock dissolution)
