civilizations. One source of these estimates is the Drake equation, created by Frank Drake of SETI, in which the number of civilizations capable of communication is derived…

The amount of time required for a chemical reaction to come to completion can vary tremendously depending on the reaction (Addison-Wesley, 2002). The speed at which any reaction proceeds can be defined as a reaction rate (J. Laidler, 2015). The rate of reaction can only be obtained experimentally, in order to yield a rate law. By conducting this experiment, it has the potential to harvest useful information regarding the understanding of rates of reaction. Understanding the rate of reactions is…

clock turns hours to days and days to years, details begin to protrude, warping the facade of childhood stories to their true state, presenting anything but a happy ending. Such stories are presented as Popular Mechanics by Raymond Carver, The Cold Equations by Tom Godwin, and This Year’s Class Picture by Dan Simmons, these three tales strive to entertain and warn about the choices and consequences of life and how it is not always what is desired. These three authors all portray characters as…

correlation between the two subjects to be viewed easier. Trend lines help people accurately determine future outcomes that can come in handy if there is a problem. This is possible because trend lines make it easier to find the slope intercept equation. This equation could be used to find future points in the graph. In this essay I will try to determine who is the best basketball player between Lebron James and Michael Jordan by using a trend line. Before finding the better player, we first…

It is believed that at higher potential foils can be overheated and deformed, which can quench the reaction propagation. The quenched reaction front with deformation will be explained in more detail in the next section. The reaction front speed of 1Ti/2Al reactive foil is nearly constant for different potentials. The high conductivity of this foil type and moderate diffusion distance of atomic mixing exhibit nearly constant reaction velocity. With increasing activation potentials, the reaction…

Discussion As a result of the calculations made above, considering the overall; CH3COCH3 (aq) + I2 (aq) + HCl (aq)  CH3COCH2I (aq) + HI (aq) the rate law for this reaction is, Rate = k[CH_3 COCH_3 ]^m [I_2 ]^n [HCl]^p. As supported in question 3 part A, the reaction orders m, n and p for acetone, iodine and HCL, respectively were 1, 0, 1. Resulting in an overall reaction order of 2. Manipulations were based on the usage of initial concentrations to calculation the rate constant for the…

Kinetic can be defined as a study of the speeds or the rates of chemical reactions. The factors that could affect the rates of the reactions are physical state, reaction temperature, catalysts, pressure, concentration of solution, and reaction time. The change of the speed of the reaction can be predicted based on the different reaction conditions. Kinetic study is important because it can describe information about the reaction mechanism. The concentration has affected the frequency which the…

started off by allowing students to solve a quadratic I had written on board. However the quadratic equation I had written on the board was the wrong equation so students got stuck when they tried to use the quadratic equation because they got a negative under the square root. From there, we went to the graph of the quadratic to see if that would be able to help identify the x-intercepts. But, the equation didn’t have any real solutions so there were no x-intercepts for us to use. Next, I…

The four practice frameworks that are used to develop the integrative Solution- Oriented Social Work approach are the strengths perspective, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and the MRI approach (Greene & Lee, 2011). The first framework is known as the Strengths Perspective. The main point behind this perspective is that the clients already have the different skills and resources necessary to be able to handle their problems in a successful manner, but they are either not aware that…

It seemed like all the large questions had been answered. The behaviour of bodies, from asteroids to galaxies, was predicted by Sir Isaac Newton 's laws of gravity and motion. Magnetism, electricity and light were linked by James Clerk Maxwell’s Equations. The understanding of the atom had reached the plum pudding stage, where an atom was a globe of 'stuff ' with the positive and negative charges speckled throughout. Physicists were confident that all the important things had been discovered,…
