my videos, such as getting my own YouTube channel and linking them from there. Any thoughts or opinions would be very much appreciated. This week at college has been a very busy and tiring week. I am pleased to say my UCAS form is finally complete; my personal statement is finally finished and has been proof-read by virtually anyone who sits still long enough! All that is left to do now is to ask (beg) my teachers for (good I hope) references, and then I'm all set! I can honestly say it's an utter relief to get it finished, the thought of finishing my UCAS and personal statement has been hanging over me like a cloud, and getting it done feels like a huge weight has been lifted. This week also documented a huge number of experiments, I am excited to say. A record four experiments, three for chemistry and one for physics, and though they may only be quick demonstrates to illustrate a particular point, I still get a thrill by getting hands on in the labs! In chemistry, we were looking at aromatics compounds, such as phenolic compounds and started working on carbonyl compounds. We firstly performed some tests the phenolic compound methyl-4-hydroxylbenzonate, which was less corrosive than pure phenol. We tested it's solubility in water and the pH of the resulting solution; we then tested phenolic compound's solubility in alkalis. We concluded that the compound had acidic properties and though was slightly soluble in water, had much
