Re: Disposal of Chemicals

The last free pick up in NSW I believe was in 2000. Our school has not had one since. We had to pay to have ours removed 2005 after a good clear out we had. I now have even more, but will late a year or two if I can, just incase their is a free one going. I really would not hold your breath. Good Luck

Re: STANSW annual conference

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.

Re: MSDS Expiry

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

Re: making soap

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.

Re: MSDS expiry date

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.
