Hydrocarbon

major source of noncarbon renewable energy. Firstly, it is clean, meaning it does not cause air pollution. Second it is reliable and inexpensive and finally it allows the U.S to limit or decrease the dependency that they have developed on other hydrocarbon sources of energy. The plant itself is expensive to build, but, in the end, they pay for themselves as they are known to last a long time. There is also no need for us to rely on international sources, but rather take advantage of the domestic…

bonding. Assess and explain the accuracy of your prediction. The classification for sugar is polar covalent. Sucrose is a polar covalent solid. Sucrose had a relatively low melting point but was soluble in water. The low boiling point and the hydrocarbon structure meant that it was a covalent and the ability for it to have dissolved in water meant that the molecule must have been polar, making it polar covalent. In a sucrose molecule the two simple sugar molecules bond in such a way that…

The planet is quickly becoming desperate for a solution to global warming. The issue has been discussed seriously for decades; however, global advancements to counteract the effects of climate change have been ineffective. International focus has been on stopping the output for harmful emissions into the atmosphere. This is widely considered to be the most obvious and, if put into practice, the most effective solution. However, the world is addicted to old methods of power production with no…

Smoking Bans By: Nathaniel, Alexis, Devyn, and Logan We see people smoking, everywhere; in their cars, at their house, in bars, outside, at parks, almost anywhere at almost any time. We see our dad smoking a pipe on the couch, we see our friends mom smoking at the park, we see our own family and friends with cigarettes in hand puffing away. Smoking bans are set to help save the lives of smokers, non-smokers, and the environment around us. Smoking harms the human body in many ways. Although some…

Introduction: The name Pseudomonas is derived from the greek and latin words which means “false unit“ (pseudo = false, greek; monas = single unit, latin). “Monas” was used in the early history of microbiology to define single-celled organisms. In 1786 Otto Friedrich Müller, from Copenhagen, classified the bacteria and named the pseudomonads, they came into the group of vibriones (which was defined as group of shaking bacteria). Many years later it was detected that Pseudomonas are motile. They…

air were said to cause health issues such as silicosis, which is an incurable lung disease. If that was not enough the water supply for nearby towns is said to be polluted by toxic fluids “containing added chemicals, radioactive material, liquid hydrocarbons, and heavy metals” (Hoffman). Fracking has been accused of causing more than one negative side effect to people living nearby and for those working on site. Despite the previous arguments, there are several other reasons consider fracking to…

magnanimous as this one, wherever you have got monstrous budgets and prodigious star power, the result are going to be nothing wanting BANG BANG! This film additionally guarantees the instance internal secretion rush through the medium of super high hydrocarbon stunts, mega quick automobile chases and fascinating…

mineral oil): Because petrolatum is derived from petroleum (oil), it needs to be refined, and some refining methods use toxic compounds. If the petroleum jelly becomes contaminated during the manufacturing process, possible PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) and other carcinogenic agents may get into the jelly. PAHs are considered potentially carcinogenic and have links to breast cancer. Any traces of PAHs are supposed to be removed at the end of the refining process. The European Union…

Did you know that at one point, the United States had a fear that they would run out of natural gas? Roughly a decade ago, industry analysts and government officials became worried that the United States would run out of natural gas, a source of energy in the states. A solution to this predicted problem would become hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking. Developed more than sixty years ago by George P. Mitchell, fracking is the process of pumping millions of gallons of chemically treated…

There are many reasons why the cosmetic industry has become a concern for the people of the United States. Many people have had diseases and cancers that can be linked to the chemicals that are placed in their personal care products and cosmetics. Little has been done for putting regulations on these chemicals being placed in personal care products until recently with the Personal Care Products Safety Act. The chemicals that are being put into cosmetics are affecting every person who uses any…
