Experiment 1: Scientific Writing and Integrity Procedure 1. A Molecular Explanation of How the Fog is Produced when Dry Ice is placed in Water The main goal of the article written is to try to figure out where the dry ice-in-water-fog (DIWF) was coming from, for there has been discussion if the fog is coming from the water or if it is coming from the dry ice being sublimed. In their terms, they hope “to describe on molecular terms what may be happening in this demonstration” (644). Researchers…

1a) Euro Interbank Offered Rate (Euribor)- rates offered to prime banks based in the Eurozone on euro interbank term deposits Background info: Euribor was first published on 30 December 1998. 1 January 1999 was the day that the Euro as a currency was introduced.

There is a problem that has plagued the nations of the world, including the American Public for an exceedingly long time, since before the handheld mobile phone being tapped by the government, since before the unrest in the middle east, since before the people were aware we were melting the ice caps. I’m not talking about the laws of war, I am talking about a much larger battlefield, one upheld in the minds & hearts of gentlemen as well as ladies who duel to uphold their honor along with their…

Summary The goal of the experiment was to determine weight % of sulfate inside an unknown sample compose of Na2SO4. The sample was dried, weighed and dissolved in water and hydrochloric acid. Barium chloride was then added in excess to drive the precipitation process to completion. Heat was use to digest the precipitate before it was filtered through an ashless filter paper and ignited to constant weight. From mass of the sample and mass of the precipitate, the percentage of sulfate in the…

Sex sells better than any commercial product. This world craves sex and would lose its mind without it, and because of that, so many people are being dragged and destroyed by prostitution. Sex has been up for sale since the 18th century BCE. It was considered something sacred with many shrines and temples dedicated to the practice. Now there are different types of prostitutes to suit the needs of any customer. Go to any urban city’s street-corner and a prostitute could be bought at a cheap rate.…

The Great Golf Ball Dilemma- Will *All calculations are rounded* This maths investigation explored the best way to package six golf balls and to recommend to the manager of a sports manufacturing company Supreme Sports. The task was to test two designs, a cylindrical box and a rectangular box, under the criteria of wasting minimal space and also the least cost the company. This testing would occur by using the knowledge of surface area and volume using formulas to find out the mathematical…

So for a decimal measuring device each mark on the vernier is spaced nine tenths of those on the main scale. If you put the two scales together with zero points aligned, the first mark on the vernier scale is one tenth short of the first main scale mark, the second…

Editor, Harvard graduate, editor again, reporter, war fighter, writer. It does not seem coincidental that after being stationed in France during World War I, that Richard Connell began writing short stories, of men fighting each other and intimidating each other, as shown in “The Most Dangerous Game” and “The Cage Man”. One of Connell’s most famous short stories, “The Most Dangerous Game,” is about an intelligent man, Rainsford, who meets former General Zaroff. General Zaroff then proceeds to…

Over five hundred years ago, cleric Diego de Landa approached an abandoned society lost in the jungles of Central America. His findings led him to make assumptions of these people he marked as savages. De Landa denounced these people as “idolatry, divorce, sacrificial, and slave traders” (qtd. in Gibson 13). Nearly three centuries after de Landa’s account, the U.S explorer John Lloyd Stephens noted his discovery of an altar among the ruins of a Central American city called Copán, with the…

Leonhard Euler Leonhard Euler was one of the most important and influential mathematicians in history, as well as one of the most underappreciated. He made contributions to virtually every area of mathematics. It is sometimes jokingly stated that he was so prolific, that many discoveries were named for the first person after Euler to discover them (Richeson, 2008). The base of the natural logarithm, e, is named after Euler, as well as the Euler-Mascheroni constant, also called Euler’s constant.…
