type of dislocation that occurred in this lab was an edge dislocation where an extra plane of atoms was inserted into the crystal structure. If enough pressure is applied on the material, a permanent deformation stemming from dislocations can occur, known as plastic deformation. The hardening of materials through the use of deformation in a material stems from the atomic structure of a metallic material. Metals are held together by metallic bonding where electrons are shared amongst atoms so…
in the United States. His book, Hooked: Five addicts challenge our misguided drug rehab system, documents the journey of the five addicts: Mike, Darrell, Darlene, Glenda, and Crystal. Through examination of these stories as documented in Hooked, we can journey through the book and begin to examine the underlying structures which are creating blockages for addicts seeking treatment in the United States. In 1997 when the book starts, Mike Pagsolingan was a 34-year-old Italian man with a history…
These sound pulses are usually in the order of 1-5 megahertz. The probe is a transducer that uses an array of piezoelectric crystals. When an electrical current from the machine is applied to these crystals, they rapidly change shape. The changes in shape cause vibrations of the crystals, producing ultrasound waves that travel outward. The sound waves then pass through the patient’s skin and into his or her internal anatomy. Sound is a wave that travels…
To begin with and as you most probably know already there are seven chakras, there is the root chakra which can be found at the base of the spine and symbolised by the color red. The next chakra will be found in your lower abdomen and is known as the spleen chakra. This chakra is synonymous with the color orange. Whilst in the stomach area you will find the solar plexus chakra and the color yellow. Slowly rising upwards you will find perhaps the most common chakra situated in the chest area.…
1 WRITTEN ESSAY Paragraph 1 The FePO4 crystal is examined at various temperatures ranging between 294K and 1073K by neutron powder diffraction. At relatively low temperatures, FePO4 adopts an α-quartz structure, which is tetrahedral. High pressures causes a phase change to a more dense octahedral structure, which is known as β-phase. The transition temperature is 980K. Cutoffs can be observed during the firstorder transition,. For α-phase, the increases in cell parameters…
yield of 5.89 g the percent yield was calculated to be 70.97%. While special care was taken to follow the procedure, the recrystallization of the crude benzil product was challenging because while scratching the flask with the mixture there were no crystals produced. This may have influenced the final amount of crude…
“specialized skin cells” with tiny crystals. These crystals are arranged in a lattice that shifts; the crystals move away or closer together to reflect different wavelengths of light. The closer the crystals are in relation to each other, the smaller wavelengths they reflect such as violet or blue. Smaller wavelengths such as red are reflected the further away the crystals are from each other. The theory now is that chameleons use a combination of moving the crystals and dispersing pigment to…
Paragraph 1 The crystal chemical relationship between quartz (SiO2) and FePO4 can be studied by putting them under a temperature range of 294K to 1073K in an attempt to study the evolution of their structures. In doing so, we would able to examine the other quartz homeotypes that emerge during high temperatures and known to show a-b transitions. This study of quartz homeotypes were essential because the new information that was gathered would aid greatly in the creation of new products and more…
for 30 min at room temperature. Then, trypsin/chymotrypsin- digested samples of KPNB1 obtained from the UV-crosslinking experiments with various concentrations of compound 1 were analyzed by nanoflow liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry. The tandem mass spectra of the trypsin/chymotrypsin-digested KPNB1-compound 1 adducts showed 10 peptides coupled to compound 1 (Table S1, the Supplementary Information). Among these adducts, we found that the amounts of three of the products,…
