1) what are the toughest questions in RC... i havent studied for this section at all.. is finding tone on the test a difficult one???what is tone exactly???is it the readers mood??

2) do any1 know how many word problems are on the QR??? is there a minimum amount that has to be on there?? or it just depends on your version?

3) how hard should i study for taxonomy??? i plan on studying all the questions from destroyer, and skimming biological diversity chapter from cliff ap bio..in your opinions , would this be suficient???

4) which transition elements dont follow the usual electron configuration, when filling it up?? i think Cu is one, right???

thanks...in advance..

Cr, Mo

if you are doing the electron configurations as you normally would and you come across an element that ends in d4 or d9.. those are the ones that have an electron from ns^2 "pop up". so if you have something like 4s^2 3d^9, you would change it to 4s^1 3d^10
