was one of the world’s most prolific writers. In addition to his books, he also wrote many individual short stories, essays, and criticism. An interesting fact about Asimov is that his works span nine out of the ten major categories in the Dewey Decimal System — the only category that does not include any of his works is Philosophy and psychology.

Abstract:- The experiment illustrates the relationship between the limiting reagent and the amount of product produced as a result of a chemical reaction. The chemical reaction was carried out by mixing the solution of Na2CO3 and CaCl2 and the precipitates of CaCO3 were obtained as a product. The experiment was carried out in 4 trials in order to determine the limiting reagent and the actual yield of the product obtained. In the first three trials, Calcium Chloride was the limiting reagent and…

The chalk could have been affected by a few tenths or hundredths of a gram and not a whole gram. Another error that occurred was the change in temperature. The soda went from being room temperature to very cold. This wasn’t very likely to have…
