Chapter 11, “The Chemical Elements”, was of great interest to me. “Chemistry is the study is the study of the composition and structure of matter (anything that has mass) and the chemical reactions by which substances are changed into other substances (James T. Shipman 285).” In this summary paper, I will discuss some of the highlights of the chapter. The way I see it, God is the original/first chemist. He took His own creations (the elements in our Periodic Table) to make provisions for…

Nowhere does it forbid reasonable regulation in order to protect the lives of innocent people. Of course, it's understandable that, since the Republican party pays its bills with money from the NRA among many other special interests (so do the Democrats, it's just not the NRA, so that's a fight for another day. They have just as many problems!), you would be hesitant to support legislation that would protect people's lives at the expense of gun sales. The truth is current background…
move up from Soldiers to Non-commissioned officers, creeds and doctrine further supplement our oath and reinforce this bond. Specifically, the Creed of the Non-Commissioned Officer outlines the role we fill as servant leaders. We spurn our own self-interest; we seek no individual credit, we seek no aggrandizement. The traditional marks of success: money, glory, praise; are rejected in favor of the satisfaction of mission accomplishment. The needs and welfare of our Soldiers are codified as our…

Based on the zones of inhibition size around the disks, it can be evident that an effective agent will inhibit bacterial growth and the relative effectiveness of a compound is determined by comparing standard antibiotic values. The minimum concentration which inhibits the bacteria is called as Minimum inhibitory concentration…
The process of passing the Pure Food and Drug Act was long because the federal lawmakers had less incentive to put concerned into the food industry. Actually, the first time the government was involved in the food and drug law was during 1850 where they reclassified tea as an exclusion for certain kind food. “In 1884 a resolution was introduced in the House authorizing an investigation of adulterated food and drugs by the Committee on Public Health, but it received only fourteen favorable votes”…
typical wit and down-to-earth style. Let us take his lessons on compounding. His first lesson on compound interest to the investors is the narration of stupid decision taken by Queen Isabella to fund Christopher Columbus’s expedition to find a new route to Asia. The monetary amount of $30,000 was invested for the expedition. Warren’s proposition is that if that same money was invested for 4% interest rate, it would be worth over $ 7 million…
insight into the nature of gases. Thus became know as the Atomic Theory. The Atomic Theory states that: “all matter is made up of atoms which are indivisible and indestructible, all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties, compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms, and a chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms” (Atomic Theory). Though most of this theory has held true we now know that atoms of the same element can have different…
