The element of design is too complex to be simply defined. It has numerous benefits; one particular benefit is that it helps solve contemporary social issues. Despite the different roles it has, "design has had one constant role throughout history as an agent of change that helps us to interpret changes of any type" (Rawsthorn, 2015). There are groups of people who make it their responsibility to use the benefits of design to find solutions to various problems in society; these people are called…

resilience is composed of several individual components that determine whether a person will conquer the obstacles that arise in life, and to what extent these obstacles will impact the person. In her article, Harrington (2012) lists several “key elements” of resilience which include emotional, spiritual, and family health (pp. 2-3). In this essay, I will examine my strengths and weaknesses in these areas of mental health and resilience and apply them to a difficult challenge that I have faced…

gases are the group of elements which are like no other elements. The noble gases are the elements grouped as the last group, group 18. These elements, from smallest to greatest atomic mass, are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon. Group 18 wasn't always called the noble gases. this group used to be called the inert gassses. They changed the name of thisi group because they are not always inert, or chemically inactive. the first element in this group is the element Helium.…

knowingly) shaped by elements. In The Disappearing Spoon, the author Sam Kean, discusses the wonderful world of the periodic table in depth. Within the first nine chapters of the novel, Kean explains the importance of location on the table, origin and discovery of each element, and its impact on other aspects of human life. Through various tales, the table is pulled apart and analyzed in an ingenious way. To a reader, it is interesting to follow how our life is determined by the elements of the…

included in the periodic table of elements with the abbreviation At and an atomic number of 85. Considered a Halogen and sharing many traits of Halogens, especially Iodine, astatine lies in column seven and period six of the current periodic table. Like many of the elements, astatine’s initial inspiration for discovery was to fill-in a missing part of the periodic table. In 1872, Dimitri Ivanovich Mendeleev wrote a paper on the periodic table which included the element francium. As noted in…

Why didn't scientists at the University of California at Berkley call element 97 and 98, Universitium and Ofium, respectively? (1 mark) Scientists at the University of California at Berkeley did not call elements 97 and 98 as ‘Universitium’ and ‘Ofium’ because they were worried that New Yorkers might name the next two ‘newium’ and ‘yorkium’, making the phrase “University of New York” rather…

The purpose of this lab is to understand how the elements in similar groups are together because of similar properties the elements share. Like Mendeleev, we had made connections toward the creation of the periodic table. When finding the unknown elements we used other known elements as guides and looked for similar properties. Like the Periodic Table today, it is organized through similar properties of each element and categorized in groups. Dimitri Mendeleev was a chemist from Russia who lived…
