Not that I really need this now, but in Chemistry A-Level, I never understood what the equivalence point was on an acid base titration, when its NOT strong acid/strong base.

Surely if an acidic or basic salt can be made, that means H+ isn't = OH-

So what would a definition be?
Thank God they didn't ask me this in the exam :D

What is the relationship between pollution in the environment and the growing numbers of people who have diseases that were once uncommon?

It appears that autism is vastly more prevalent now. And, there appears to be a dramatic increase in the incidence of autoimmune disorders, such as fibromyalgia and lupus. Is environmental pollution responsible and to what extent?

We've all seen the nuclear tests where they blow up the bomb in the ocean, and a crazy amount of water shoots up in the sky. How come these tests don't cause massive tsunamis? Seems to me that they would, but maybe I just don't know enough to understand, which is why I ask, :)

In the case of chemical impurites it's easy enough to evaporate water to remove the impurities...but in the case of a radioactive contamination...is there a process seperate the radioactive particles?

I once read about about a killer called Locusta the Poisoner who lived in ancient Rome and was sentenced to be raped by a specially-trained giraffe and then torn to bits by wild animals afterwards. Giraffes are huge, so is it even possible for them to penetrate a woman?

"The key to life and death is everywhere to be found, but if you do not find it in your own house, you will find it nowhere. Yet, it is before everyone's eyes; no one can live without it; everyone has used it. The poor usually possess more of it than the rich; children play with it in the streets. The meek and uneducated esteem it highly, but the privileged and learned often throw it away. When rejected, it lies dormant in the bowels of the earth. It is the only thing from which the Philosopher's Stone can be prepared, and without it, no noble metal can ever be created."

What is it?

Ohms Law states that
1 ohm = 1V/1A
(V= volt, A=ampere)
But in superconductivity, resistance is zero. But then, how can V be zero, if current is passed through a superconductor? Whatever other numbers V and A are made, the division cannot be equal to zero. Then, are superconductors an exception to ohm's law?
