Methane Electronegativity Essay

A fuel is any material that can be made to react with other substances so that it releases chemical energy as heat. Fuels can range from solid forms such as coal, liquid forms such as LPG & gas forms such as propane (you, 2017). Most of the fuels used are fossil fuels. Over 81% of America’s fuels are fossil fuels, these include fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas. Fossil fuels are fuels that are extracted from the earth, this means that they are a limited resource. This creates the need for…

Light intensity: As the light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis also increases as this is helping the chloroplast to absorb chlorophyll. However, when it reaches its optimum level the level stays the same. Moreover, the Carbon dioxide concentration levels allows the plant to create food quicker. Once the Carbon dioxide reaches its optimum level the rate of photosynthesis stays the same. In addition, at the start, when the temperature begins to rise the rate of photosynthesis rises…

General Purpose: The purpose of my speech is to persuade my speakers to take action and help lower global warming by putting laws in place. Specific Purpose: Persuade my peers/audience to take action. Central Idea: Inform my classmates, about the impact that certain actions are doing on our planet. Introduction A popular topic that has been flying around for a few years has been the topic of global warming. Scientists started looking into and doing research on global warming back in the…

The goal of this lab was to compare the differences of temperature effect on a plant's growth rate. In this experiment, the materials used were water bottles, seeds, and cotton. One half-cut bottle with the seed was placed in room temperature, while the other in cold temperature. The plants were equally watered every other day after for 2 weeks (at the same time). Throughout this experiment, the results led to the conclusion that a plant placed in room temperature had a higher germination rate…

Coal Energy vs Wind Energy The United States alone burns more than a billion tons of coal every year, making up more than half of the electricity used in the US from coal power. However, burning fossil fuels also causes 78 percent of the United States global warming emissions, 32 percent being from coal. In order to combat these pollutants and hopefully cut down prices different cleaner, and renewable energy alternatives are being used instead. One of these newer and effective forms of…

An Inconvenient Truth: Rhetorical Description Global warming it is happening what is it and how does it affect them, these are common concerns and questions that come to mind when looking at these posters. While analyzing these two posters, the first thing that is noticeable is one has penguins walking through the desert, and the other has factories and smoke is rolling out of the chimneys. These two posters represent crises that are happening within our climate. What these two posters…

What is the effect of temperature on the chirping rate of a cricket (Teleogryllus, commudus)? Research: /3 Male crickets make chirps/song in the attempt to attract a female so they can reproduce. The crickets create the chirp noises by rubbing their wings closest to their head (forewings). The song mentioned above (calling song) is the song the crickets use to attempt to attract a female. A cricket varies the number of chirps in a certain amount of time. Using the chirps you can…

Inspired by a forsaken orange that sat in a North Carolina parking lot, Jonathan Bloom wrote American Wasteland to examine the growing problem of food-waste in America. I think Bloom did a tremendous job by presenting this looming issue. His numerous anecdotes pertaining to food-waste creates an innate sense of relatability, which in turn direct readers’ attention to the statistical and logical presentations of the issue. This is an impressive feat because Bloom avoided coming off as preachy or…

Deforestation in the Amazon Did you know that it is said that within 100 years, there will be no more rainforests? The rate of deforestation is the same as the loss of thirty-six football fields every minute. One and a half acres of forest is cut down every second. Although it allows for people to generate more revenue, deforestation should be banned because it creates more carbon dioxide in the air, promotes the development of drought, contributes to the extinction of wildlife and is a limited…

being a prominent figure among ethnic minorities, Martin Luther King Jr., as evidenced by his support of sanitation workers in Memphis, supported any cause which he saw as worthy. What he saw worth in; however, was not just the poor, the minorities, the disenfranchised, or the oppressed, but those who he saw as being slighted of true justice and true equality. Perhaps this mentality is what drove him to comment on environmental protection—a cause which not only affects minorities or the poor,…
