Imagine never seeing the sun, sky, or nature. In the novel Tunnels by co-authors Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams, a boy named Will Burrows stumbles upon an underground Victorian era city, named the Colony. Will finds the underground city while looking for his father who recently went missing. After being captured by the civilians of the underground city (also known as colonists), he discovers that his dad, also known as Mr. Burrows was captured by the colonists and was banished deeper into the earth. Will is desperate to find his father but longs to escape to the surface. There are three very important objects in the novel. The three most important objects that help Will in his discoveries are; Mr. Burrow’s Journal, a light orb, and Will’s shovel. In the beginning of the novel when Will is searching for his dad, also known as Mr. Burrows, he discovers a journal that is left by his dad. It says that Mr. Burrows was leaving on an expedition upon discovering a mining elevator that lead to the Colony. The journal is important to the plot of the book because it leads Will in the direction of his father. If Will had not found the journal, he would never have a chance at finding his father. “But Will was too engrossed in the journal to explain. He recited slowly, in broken sentences, as he struggled to decipher his father’s handwriting” (Gordon/Williams 98). Will discovers the journal and immediately begins to read and uncover its significance. Will’s hunger for information on…

A few summers back, my family and I took a trip out to Flagler Beach, Florida, not too far from Daytona. A few days into the vacation, the girls had gone out for a shopping trip, so, because there was a slight drizzle, my Dad and I decided to just chill out and watch some TV until the weather decided to calm down. This was a vacation that will never be forgotten. My ears perk up as I notice the quieting of the rain against the window. I get up and walk over, pushing the roughly sewn curtain to…

This implies many things. The atomic number of an element indicates how many electrons and protons there are. The number of electrons should always be the same of protons because their charges cancel and the overall charge of the atom is neutral, and so the number of protons and electrons of copper is 29. There are 29 electrons surrounding the nucleus, organized in orbitals. There are 29 protons in the nucleus, however the number of neutrons is dependent of the carbon isotope being described.…

We finally breeze in our way toward the beach, as we are en route to the destination of peace, calmness and tranquility. We walked out of the car, where we picked our many items and backpack full of cloths. We ran towards the beach, which was a beautiful sight to see such a heavenly experience. As we found a resting ground, Devasree soon persuade me to walk with her in the sandy beach alone. I eventually agreed and we walked in the sandy beach, her hand gracefully locked into mine walking side…

Introduction Molecular orbital theory allows for the relation between the nature of chemical bonds and the properties of molecules.1 Many times, the frontier molecular orbitals, named HOMO and LUMO, are analyzed in order to predict these properties. In this lab, each double bond corresponds to a molecular orbital. The HOMO, or highest occupied molecular orbital is the most energetic (highest n-value) orbital that contains an electron. The n-value is equal to the number of double bonds present.…

Mo's story began on a Friday afternoon a few weeks ago. Which of course at the time, Mo believed Friday to be the start of a normal weekend, but she was wrong. Now, I am not saying her weekend was awful, but it did run awry. The plan was to travel to her father's house in Dixon, which is about two hours away from Bloomington-Normal. She had already said goodbye to her mother and step-father, on the grounds of the fact that they had left to celebrate their anniversary. The couple planned on…

With this how does the search field get narrowed down, for space is rather large? Calculations for everything from mean motion resonances to resonant orbital geometry constraints, then take the planets mass and put it all together to eliminate locations that the planet could not be. Those eliminations help narrow down the areas of space that need to be considered based on where the planet needs to be to alter the path the eKBOs orbit the Sun. For an in-depth look at the mathematics behind…

It was a particularly cold, frisky night in Saturn. We have been in the rings of Saturn on our enemies ship for god knows how long. Our commander, Cayde, at tower Earth sent the Fireteam to Saturn to capture the Taken King. The Taken King, was the biggest plague the system has ever seen. If the Fireteam shut down the Taken King, they ended all of the battle between the Taken and the Vanguards that took place all over the Solar System. It was the Hunter, Titan, and the Warlock. They were…

that comprise an atom. The first of these components that make up an atom is the proton. The proton is a very important part of an atom, because the atomic number of an atom is equivalent to the number of protons that that atom has. Additionally, the mass of an atom is equal to the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons of that atom. The number of electrons that an atom has is also equal to the number of protons that that atom has.…

Constructing the Quantum Model of the Atom Modeling is one of the main components in the scientific method. To understand how the orbitals functioned in an atom, we were assigned to build a quantum model of our given element. For the assignment, we had to represent at least three shells in or model and it had to be strong enough to hang on the ceiling. The element I received was Terbium. Terbium is located in the sixth period and the lanthanide series. Because it was located in the lanthanide…
