Any oda view?

Abeg joor kudos to all d social science student...see as all of dem dy calm dy watch both d art and science stident dy fool deir selves....abeg oo i no mention name oo..if u knw say ur name na art and science student only den u fit attack me o..no b say i dy fear oo.bt i just dy make announcement

IamTitanium: U funi pass Basket mouth

watttt..na complement be dat?

Doc_Miss: Number of moles in NaOH= CV/1000

= 0.1 X 25/1000 = 0.0025mole

Number of moles in HCl= CV/1000

= 0.1 X 50/1000 = 0.005moles.





HCl + NaOH is a Neutralization Rxn and therefore the Product is NaCl and H20 which is Neutral,so it wont affect the pH.



Since the acid(HCl) is excess

Number of moles of Acid not neutralized = 0.005mole - 0.0025mole

=0.0025mole.

Number of moles of HCl not neutralized = CV/1000

Cross multiply,

therefore, C= Number of moles of Hcl not neutralized/Volume in dm3

C=0.0025/0.025+ 0.05

=0.033M

[H+]= 0.033M
= -Log [H+]
= -Log [0.033]
= -[Log3.33 X 10^-2]
= -[Log3.33 +Log 10^-2]
= -[Log3.33 - 2Log10^10]
= -[Log 3.33-2]
= -0.5229+2
=1.4771


pH = 1.477

wrng.....total fiasco....
Anoda person?
Hahahahaha....i knw say she be don be fear say upon all d xplanation..

[quote author=Riley_Freeman] speculation Like seriously

One advice.. Get closer to your Bible. Thanks [/quoteHmmmmm..tnx for d advice bro....
Bt dy are mere speculations and also fictions.

Riley_Freeman: lol.. you ehn, na so you dey quick vex .

But if we should go with the story, then..it just might not be correct... Just maybe.

No ooo...it must be correct ooo or else.........*

Affrey: i dont knw it gush i just fell down becos i was thinking and typing lol ur questions r too hard for me

Hahahaha...as u big reach u stil dy fall..

Riley_Freeman: Ken, your answer 'may' have been correct but the reason? Lol..I had to step in 'cuz of that..you really had me laughing.


@Miss Bernie, if That's the case..then neither of the answers seem right..because the guy stated it exactly as it is..In other words, he meant what he said..'literally'

but if I come across that question with the stated options..I wouldn't mind ticking 'C' like I said earlier on.

Well, maybe it's time you reveal the answer, cuz as it seem, we all got it wrong.

Lolz...wait oo do u mean dat dose answers aren't correct?

Hmmm..miss bernie dnt provoke my anger oo..report here wif immediate effect...

Affrey: my aunty told me that he even prophecised about that plane crash a week b4 it happened

hmmmm....some are speculations oo....my uncle even told me dat he prophecised dat nigeria will play in d final match @ d african's cup of nation.

Affrey: Aissssh miss bernie whts the answer nw,is it paradox,antithesis or oxymoron.well sha its alright

if she says anoda tin oda dan paradox i will personally stone her to death....sowi na slip of lips oo

d ans has already been given...it is paradox.......

Riley_Freeman: lol...I don come here this morning dey come witness comedy..Very funny. I for no like involve myself o, make people no con begin hate me more, but I have to..afterall, we are here to learn.

Someone said the answer is Euphemism.

Now what is Euphemism?


E.g The popular example... "The man kicked the bucket" .

In other words... The man died.

Another popular example.. " The girl has been deflowered..

In other words.. "The girl has been disvirgined"

Now what's the sentence of discord ..lol
This is the beginning of the end of my career.

Now..look at that definition of Euphemism n look at the statement itself.

Yea, as at first glance..one may think it's euphemism.

But is the speaker intending to express his predicament in a more pleasant way ?.

No! He is saying the situation exactly as it is.. 'This is it!' 'this is the end for me'

if he wanted to Euphemize the statement(i.e make it look pleasant) .. He would have said something entirely different.

Or would you tell me.. "end of career" sounds pleasant to you.

Now over to Oxymoron.



For the red coloured words.. "contradictory"...in other words ; "Opposite"

e.g good/evil, tall/short, etc

N.B; the words must not necessarily be opposite to eachother. But should atleast "seem" opposite.

E.g necessary/evil.. Nice/fool

And for the blue coloured words.. "placed side by side"

Now, that's the major aspect of oxymoron people neglect.

The words MUST be placed side by side/combined.

E.g evil good, nice fool, falsely true etc

Using them in a sentence, we have something like..

1. The gun is a necessary evil.
2. Mr. Eze is a nice fool.

Oh! I forgot to mention what "self-contradictory" .means

In a lame man's words.. It's like saying, "Jonathan dey try o..but he no dey do anything"
(This is a paradox by the way)

what has he succeeded in doing? Contradicted himself!

N if you scrutinize that "This is the beginning of the end"..

The contradictory words isn't really combined/placed side by side.

In conclusion, an oxymoron is purely based on Self-contradictory words combined/joined together.

And now, Paradox.


lol...dont mind the definition, I don't cram much.

e.g The popular example, "The boy is the father of the man".

At first glance, you may think that's absurb. But if you examine it closely, you would see the truth therein. "the boy is the one taking care of the man"

Do I also need to state the self contradiction therein? It's obvious

Another popular example from the Bible.

Jesus said.. "Anyone who saves his life will lose it, but anyone who loses his life for my sake will find it"

it may seem absurd right? But examine it n if you still don't get it..lemme know.

And the statement in question.

This is the beginning of the end of my career.

Hmmm.. I bet the answer is now clear to you?

If it isn't..look at the definition again, atleast it's self explanatory.


And ehmmm, someone said it's Anthithesis.. Which is somehow correct, but I'd still say..not entirely correct..lol, another figure of speech just used.

I really can't remember or give a coherent definition of Anthithesis at the moment, but I'd give an example which you may use in getting the meaning.

" United we stand....divided we fall"


In anthithesis, Yes! Contradiction exists but the difference is.. One set of words is placed against another.

Which exists in the aforementioned example.


Just reason around it.


The truth is, these figure of speech that makes use of contradictions (Oxymoron, Paradox, Anthithesis ) could pose one or two problem most times.

With that said, A single statement may have up to 10 figure of speech.. It must not necessary be one. Tho' you need to find the most suitable one before picking your answer.

And if I come across a question like that.

What figure of speech is used in the statement below.

"This is the beginning of the end of my career"

A. Euphemism
B. Oxymoron
C. Paradox
D. Anthithesis


without thinking twice, I'd pick C. Because, it is the most suitable answer.


I hope I have not offended anyone?

abeg joor make una clap for me oooooo..i get am...lit too sweet..na i be put in 4..bt dem come go give me economics and statistics

Sir-Tunechi:

Lolz..na make he burst na i dy o

Didi 5: It is possible in appreciating literature to derive more than a figure of speech from a word,sentence or phrase.
Hence my answer was paradox and antithesis.

tell dem oo..dat was wat i said earlier...u can derive up to 4 figures of speech frm just a sentence...were is even dis gal called bernie....wont u say d ans...dnt let me assume u dnt knw it oo

odizeey: Affrey hw body,mhelena wlcm, dhamora I hail,Ken u b boss

Oga odizee....u na my oga d top o..i dy look up to u

mhizz_bernie: nd wats d hidden truth

Wat is d ans joor?

MrRomantic1: shuo! Snc wen did u becum a lit stdent! Abi na cus of affrey? Na wa o

Hahahahaha...lwkmd...u go see wenti ur mouth go put o...the fact say i no be lt student no mean say i no fit talk again..shuuuuuu

Affrey: thank u soo much mickey,they were goin to eat me raw

hahahahaha....was jokin oooo.

mickeyIso: good boy

Na u sabi o..bt see sth..d ans could be both paradox and antithesis in d sense dat frm d extract it says..the beginnin of d end..nw beginin is d opposite of end and d both of dem are opposin..and also dat statement was nt only opposin bt was witty...which is wat paradox is all abt..so a particular example can get up to abt 4 figure of speech bt dependin on d context

with dis i rest my case

mickeyIso: good boy

mickeyIso: she sed self contradictory not two contradicting words

Noted

Affrey: well dats what i was taught in sch and i knw oxymoron is the placing of two opposite words side by side like bitter sweet.

yes nw u correct..tot u said earlier dat paradox is self contradictin statement....

Droga dray: IT IS PARADOX,,,if u knw little abt lit dnt sprang n argument on wt a baby lit knw so well
