Chem homework is due, through an online system, Sunday night.

Professor told me I missed the first assignment, my guess is it was due last Sunday night. I wasn't enrolled in the course until Saturday night, so if he confirms it was Sunday night, I'm going to tell him he needs to open the assignment for me, or strike it from my record.

And at that point I might as well tell him I want to confirm that quiz 1 will not be held against me, as, again, I wasn't in the course.
 
And we're back to the usual problem with an online system.

I know the answer, but I don't know how they want the symbols put into their system, so it keeps showing wrong.
 
Here we go again!

Six sig figs, on a ten digit number.

Incorrect. Try again, two attempts remaining.

No explanation of why they don't like it. Of course, it could be that I choose to use 1.661 instead of 1.66, or maybe 1.67, or.... it's all in how you choose to round off amu in kg.
 
Yep, it was rounding. Of course, they just say the "correct" answer, without actually say which numbers they used.

From the looks of it, their number is larger, so they rounded to probably a single digit.
 
INTERLUDE FOR FEEDBACK!

Rated it very poor, very difficult, and then explained the multiple failings of the question.

BEGIN THE RAMPAGE!
 
It gets better!

Early on, they used Z for mass, and A for atomic number.

Now they've switched, Z is being used for atomic number, A is for mass.

Holy fuckballs, CONSISTENCY.

You shouldn't be a jerk about. It's not his fault. He probably wasn't aware
 
Enter three totally separate answers on one line, separated by commas.

Get one wrong, flag the whole line wrong, don't say where the problem is.
