Teachers are so annoying

Today's post is just to enforce my insistence that I'm not on hiatus.
And also. Irene declared her overwhelming faith in me, which pretty much threw my determination to not blog, down the drain.
See, Irene, its all your fault. :D



I have something to interesting to share today anyway.
Chem prac today.
So we did this experiment where we had to react magnesium ribbons and HCL together.
Obviously, when you put them together, the resulting liquid you would get is MgCl.

Mg + HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂

So after we have recorded our results and everything, someone went over to msA and enquired

"So... When do we throw this liquid (MgCl₂)?"

And you know what she answered?? What she answered?


"Oh... Put it back into the HCL bottle."



Er, WHAT?!
IS SHE MAD?!


HELLO.
MgCl ≠ HCl

Does she not realise that there was actually unused pure HCl remaining in the bottle?
Does she not realise that if we put it back in, the MgCl will mix with the remaining HCl, thus contaminating the HCl?
Does she not realise that other classes might be using this "HCl" in the bottle for their experiments?
Does she not realise that this would result in a total waste of resources and effort put in to make this HCl solution?
Does she not realise that no sane or competent teacher will ever suggest doing such a thing?!



I'm like, super pissed la.
I can't believe it.


Seriously, how the hell did she get to be a bloody teacher?



This is so. Sickening.
