Merici students' outstanding performance at ACT Titration Stakes

Our Year 12 team of Bronte Alexander, Madeleine Fisk and Claire Molineux placed in the top ten teams and will move on to the national competition.

Merici College fielded two teams in the ACT Titration Stakes on Tuesday evening.  In a competition valuing technical skill and precision, teams must determine the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide and then use this to further determine the concentrations of three separate solutions of acetic acid. Our Year 12 team of Bronte Alexander, Madeleine Fisk and Claire Molineux placed in the top ten teams and will move on to the national competition, while our Year 11 team of Jade Esler, Japneet Kaur and Rosemary Zielinski performed strongly but just missed out on getting through to the next round.
