CM2111 Experiment 2. Tinghui and I spent the entire friday afternoon in the library, and when we finally left the library at 9 plus, we had only managed to write the introduction and procedures. It’s just so tough. I mean, I don’t think the lectures prepare us enough to write the report. And I can’t find comprehensible info from the books. How do you know if it’s a strong field or weak field ligand, what causes distortion from octahedral, does the bond length matter, and if I were to discuss the electronic spectra do I have to identify the transitions? I think so, but I can’t make any sense of the term symbols?
I’m currently trying to borrow the report from a friend who took this module last semester. Actually I only asked her to tell me the crystal field, but she had offered to send me her report.I had asked her on Friday night, and she’d said she’d send it later, which she didn’t. And then come Saturday she still didn’t send it, so I asked her about it. Turned out that she’d gone out ans she said she’d send it when she got home. It was Valentines’ and I didn’t want to bother her too much though I must admit I was pissed already. At midnight I figured surely she must have reached home and messaged her. She said she just got home and was really tired and would send me tomorrow.
Now I guess it’s just really obvious this person is just stuffing me with excuses. I mean, hello… how hard is it to just attach a word document and email it? And it’s not even like I asked for it; she had offered it. If I’m not so desperate I wouldn’t have bothered to contact her at all. It’s noon now and I still haven’t received her mail and heck I may just crapped my report through…
