Convertible bond

forces of attraction present in a molecule, the stronger it is. Water and ethanol both have dispersion forces and hydrogen bonding while kerosene only has dispersion force. It means to say that there is a greater energy needed in order to break the bond that holds the molecules together. In conclusion, intermolecular forces increase direct proportionally with increasing polarization. It should also be noted that the arrangement of the strength of intermolecular forces increase from dispersion,…

Paragraph 1 Sphalerite and wurtzite are the two polymorphs of Zinc Sulphide (ZnS). Sphalerite follows the space group F-43m, wurtzite is of the space group P63mc, and both polymorphs have the same formula of (Zn, Fe)S. The crystal chemical relationship between the two can be discussed by looking at the capability of transformation between the two polymorphs, known as polymorphism. This is due to the same SnS4 polyhedral found in both. Yet even though this is so, the two differ when we look at…

Surface modification of CNTs with desired organic, inorganic compounds through covalent or non-covalent bonds represents an emerging area in the research on nanotube-based materials. Such modification can result in a significant enhancement of properties and open up a broad range of novel application perspectives. Non-covalent or covalent functionalization…

PARAGRAPH 1 Comparing the crystal structure of α-FePO4 & β-FePO4 Firstly, the crystal structures of the alpha and beta Iron Phosphate can be identified from the paper. The lower temperature form, α-FePO4, has the space group P3121, while the higher temperature form β-FePO4, has the space group: P6422. These space groups translates to the lattice symmetry of trigonal and hexagonal respectively. The two space groups are chiral. α-FePO4 is the main form of Iron Phosphate in room temperature since…

The infrared (IR) spectra of PVA nanofibers are shown in figure 3-a. According to this figure, polyvinyl alcohol FTIR spectrum has peaks at 1655 cm-1 relating to the bending band of (HOH) peaks in 2910 cm-1 and 2940 cm-1 related to the stretching bands of (CH2) and Peaks at 1710 cm-1 and 1573 cm-1 are related to the carbonyl group. Also, the peak in 1142 cm-1 indicating the presence of oxygen atoms, the band at 1097 cm-1 is assigned to (C-O) stretching vibration of the ether group and peaks at…

Is Doping in Sports OK? 73 home runs in a single MLB season. That is almost an unthinkable thing to accomplish at the highest level of baseball. When Barry Bonds completed this feat in 2001, many people speculated on whether or not he was helped in any way… they meant steroids. Doping, which is the use of steroids, is now a major issue within pro sports and has helped many athletes accomplish feats they might not have otherwise done. Even though doping does not always make that much of a…

Steroids are alive and well in sports today. Not until the 1960’s was the use of performance-enhancing drugs by professional athletes acknowledged as a problem (CITE). Today, steroids are widely known throughout all levels of sports, and are prohibited in all of them. Even though there are rules in professional sports as well as collegiate, athletes still find a way to consume them, even though they are aware of the consequences. Athletes not only have to be aware of the repercussions of…

A parent is loosely defined as a mother and father who raises a child to their full potential. Most kids are raised by either their biological and/or stepparent. In some cases, however, there are children who grew up not knowing their biological father. According to (Wolf, 2017), there are 82.2% reported single mothers in the US alone. With the ever increasing number of fathers being absent in a child’s life, it brings the question of how much of an impact having an absent biological father has…

their children’s lives. Sons are referring to technology rather than their fathers, and are struggling with tasks because of this. When sons consult their fathers, they are more successful at accomplishing tasks; this also strengthens the father-son bond. Considering these circumstances, Gillette released the ad “Go Ask Dad” for Father’s Day. It [the video] presented that 94% of teenagers ask the Internet for advice before their dads. Subsequently, it showed fathers of diverse backgrounds…

Jaxson Ziemann Miss Davis College Prep English 2 31 March 2017 A Hero’s Accomplishments Baseball is known as America’s pastime for good reason. The sport is does many things to draw interest to the game and how it’s played. Baseball is highly competitive, complex, and difficult to master. That is why people enjoy it so much. A game’s outcome could change with one pitch, and one swing of the bat. On Tuesday, September 8th, a ball is hit and leaves the field over the left field wall. Just like…
