Afternoon folks, We have been given as a gift, some metals, all different. We have never had a good stock of metals before, only what we use at the time. Can I safety store the metals in their class's with the chemcials in the chem store. Or must I store it away from the chemicals. We have appox abo...

Hi Jazz, I do believe it was you who sent me the Spirit Burner labels??? I did email you asking where they came from. I did not know they were from Chemwatch. I guess you have paid for chemwatch. With DET schools we do not have that choice. So I would be unable to use those lovely looking labels for...

When you first go on to Chemwatch, you do need to click or push the Teacher Mode , has a little hat as the picture. As we go on to the site, it puts us down as student each time. So click on the Teacher Mode, and that should be fine. I have forgotton sometimes, so I can only get a soultion. Regards

Morning Folks, Lovely morning in Syndey. We need to update our wash bottles. At the moment we have the Curved straw that comes out of the side of the bottle. Looking through the books, see their are so many different types. I would love to hear your views. Have people had any problems?? Thank you

Here is NSW and the CSIS we could not use 6M Sodium Hydroxide, with Year 10's.

The book said years 7-10 could use 2M, otherwise should use Soluitions of 1M only. But I am not too sure what goes on in QLD.

Regards

The CSIS is not out of date. It is how ever updated from time to time. Can we help with some thing??

perhaps you could try WIRES. They have help't us out before. With a bird or two, to preserve. You can only ask them.

Hope this helps you.

I understood, it was only replaced when a new MSDS was issued. I go through our MSDS once a year, to see which has changed, or been re-issued. Or perhaps you could use the work updated. Useing Chemwatch. Some times their are a lot other times very few, need reprinting.

HI Folks, I believe we need to store Class 9 away from other groups, etc Class 8, 3, 5.1, 6.1 etc, but not sure how far, is it a 1 (one) metre? Also as far as I can tell, their are NO solutions that are class 9, am I correct??????????????????? Can it be stored at the end of the Non Classifeid group?...

Sticky tape does not last to long. I only have the Name of the Spirit, Coloured dot & Flamable sticker. I just can not fit the who...

Do we know what did happen at Hay High School. Perhaps we may get details in a few days time??

Welcome back every one

I believe W.A and many of the other states, have different law's & regulartions. NSW is a little different again, we have to use Chemwatch. Perhaps one day they will put us all on the same level (So to speak). We really do not mean to confuse you all, but the NSW system can be a little confusing...
