replenish. There are also many approaches to assure water purity. Filtering, boiling, education, chlorinating, harvesting, roof catching and grid collecting are a few solutions (Starkey 16-20). It is important to educate the society on detecting unsanitary water and the possible solution to eliminate the harmful effects. Filtering, boiling and chlorinating water is all suitably inexpensive ways to ensure safe drinking water. Boiling and chlorinating removes any bacteria or microorganism in the…
When I read “The Open Book” by Stephen Crane it was very long and I found the wording in the story a little difficult to understand. I had to reread a few sentence and look up some of the words. However the complicated words didn’t stop me from reading the story because I was really into it. I wanted to know what was going to happen to these four men because Crane kept the readers at suspense as to what was going to happen to the four men. At first I thought these men were doomed that they would…
My Element is the Most Important Element (Argon) •Atomic mass 39.948 •Atomic Number -18 •Gas at 298 K •Density-0.0017837 grams per cubic centimeter •Third Noble gas •Chemical Symbol-Ar •It is also obtained from the air as a byproduct of the production of oxygen and nitrogen •It is the third most atmospheric gas •Argon is colorless and odorless •Argon is non reactive and has no effect on living organisms •Makes up 1% of the air around •Argon is found in the earth’s crust…
due to its weak magnetic field. Mars is relatively moon-like in appearance, with many craters on its surface and a network of “scarps” that intersect the many impact craters. It also has essentially no atmosphere, so the side facing the sun gets boiling hot but the side facing away drops to an extreme low of -279 degrees Fahrenheit. The greenhouse effect has been well documented since the 1980s, with scientists and even public figures debating its causes, effects, and legitimacy throughout it…
There were numerous reason as to why the English Civil War began. One reason was that James I and the Parliament already were on bad terms with each other. James believed in an absolute monarch which frightened the House of Commons and the Parliament. On the other hand, Parliament had money that James needed yet they wouldn’t give it to him. This resulted in James suspending Parliament and consequently they didn’t regroup for ten years. When his son, Charles I, came to the thrown he already had…
technologies could easily have military applications such as satellites and monitoring, and it was important for these countries to gain backing and pride in order to help the metaphorical “game of chess” they were engaged in. With the Cold War coming to a boiling point, and the Space Race heating up, funding for the United States space program became a must have. In 1958, NASA became the first space program for the US,…
surgical tools, and laboratory apparatus. In normal conditions Platinum is a solid, shiny, silver metal. Its atomic number is 78, and its atomic mass is 195.084. Its density is 21.45 g/cm3. Platinum has a melting point of 3,215 fahrenheit, and a boiling point of 6,917 fahrenheit. Platinum is in group 10 on the periodic table. It is also a Transition and Platinum Group metal. Like the other elements in the Platinum Group metals, Platinum is very rare and very expensive. Every year 130…
Titanium has 22 protons, 26 neutrons, and 22 electrons. The atomic number of this element is 47,867. Titanium is a lustrous transition metal. William Gregor was a man who was interested in minerals. He recognized the presence of a new element. The boiling point for this element is 5,948 fahrenheit and the melting point is 3,034 fahrenheit. The titanium chemical properties is more reactive at high temperatures. It can actually catch fire when heated in the presence of oxygen. Titanium is not…
Effect of Water Availability on Germination of Acacia rubida and Swainsona formosa Seeds Question The aim of this experiment is to investigate whether water availability prior germination affects Acacia rubida and Swainsona formosa seed germination. We will control the water availability by pre-soaking time. Hypotheses Null hypotheses • Seed germination speed will not differ between long and short soaking time. • Change in soaking time will have same effect on A. rubida and S. formosa seeds.…
