Logs & Ln on the Pcat

[Lasche]

Logs & Ln's are on the Pcat right?
I know that we can't use calculators, and I'm having trouble with natural logs needed to calculate rate equations. Can anyone help?
How do I find Ln(.88)?

Thanks

Ln 1 =0
0.88< 1, so Ln0.88 is a negative number and close to 0
thus, ln 0.88 can be-0.10 or -0.2
You have to estimate.

log is calculus 2. the pcat only covers calc 1 am i right. actually i guess it depends on what book. for steward its up to log.

The basic log properties you need are from Algebra

So basically you're say just know the rules, right? Like Log AB = Log A + Log B, etc...

if you know log base 10 better, you can convert logx to lnx....
(2.3)logx~lnx
