How are you able to access that since when wkikpedia had been blacked out?
It was alright except the first two or three question; they were really hard; I did't get the one mith mantle dynamics! How is mantle dynamics related to convection drift; I gueesed and pput radiactiveity - is that right? Also what where the 3 answers about the governametnt and earthquakes????

yeah,i didnt get the mantle dynamics question aswell!so i had to guess and i put that convection currents are formed by radioacticvity in the mantle,,dunno if its right though!and for that other earthquake question,the reasons i put was:1)people might not trust the scientists 2)scientists dont know what is fully happening underneath the earth 3)and i cant remember!!
does anyone remember the question at the start about gold not being pure!and then we had to write down 2 things..but i cant remember what the question is!:s-smilie:

I found the paper okay :smile: What did everyone put for how is nitrogen oxide formed in the engine?? I didn't really understand that as we haven't done about it so I just put 'Because the nitrogen in the fuel reacts with the air around it' aha :L I'm guessing that's wrong though :L

Yh I think the question was about gold's properties; I put its stronger (brittle) and has to go less process (less expense) what about u ?:smile:

I put '1) It's too soft when pure, and 2) it's too expensive and rare to make jewely out of 100% gold'

So would this count : HAs to go through more processes? + what did you put about sulfur dioxide (1st question) ??

What you can do is put an m in the website so

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

becomes

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page


Basically the mobile site is still working. Or alternatively put this at the end of the URL "?banner=none"

Therefore

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

becomes

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page?banner=none

24 carat gold is something like 99.9% or 99% pure. As Gold is found in it's native element i.e. pure, it isn't that it's too rare it's just a matter of maleabilty and cost (which is why I highlighted part of it) Half can be considered correct the highlighted part I'm not sure. But I don't rem the exact question.
