disorder because of it being prevalent within my family on my absent father’s side. What I learned from Google was that bipolar is a disorder that can cause people to have mood swings, there were two different types of bipolar, and that the drug lithium could be used to treat this disorder. Some of the things that I had learned from the textbook were the differences between bipolar I and II, the diagnostic criteria involved in bipolar disorder, and why bipolar occurs. Some…
Group 1 Elements Referring to the table created from observing the characteristics of the three elements from group 1, Lithium, Sodium, and Potassium, we can see that they all share the appearance of being lustrous and metallic, with a silvery-white presentation, and it is also known that they are all alkali metals. It is also noticed that they are all soft metals easily cut with a knife rather than most metals such as calcium or iron. All three elements are stored within oil, with Sodium as an…
Bipolar is a psychological disorder in the brain. It causes mood swings without any warning and can pose danger to others. Lucky there is treatment for the disorder to help relief the mood swings. Bipolar disorders are much less common than that of depression, But with 6 million of the population having it you would think that it is fairly larger number, really that only counts for about 2.5 % of the population having a bipolar disorder (Goldberg,2015). The disorder blossoms most commonly around…
It is estimated that there will be enough Lithium to power fusion energy for 1,000 years (ITER). These elements are natural and help to reduce the carbon footprint compared to the search for coal, oil and operating other renewable energy sources. CO2 emissions are expected to rise by 60% in 2030…
output of 1500 kW. In 2016, Adgero announced a regenerative braking system for large trucks that employed a graphene-based supercapacitor. In 2016, Henrik Fisker announced development of an electric car that will use Graphene supercapacitor instead of lithium-ion…
Rationale I decided to turn this lesson into a flipped lesson as the topic on ionic bonding is something very microscopic and I feel it would help students to develop a more concrete understanding of an abstract topic. By recording the lecture which includes a step-by-step guide on drawing a dot-and-cross diagram, the weaker ones will be able to study at their pace and choose to pause or rewind should they not understand. This helps them to understand the concepts better, as opposed to going…
right place. Today I am going to talk about an amazing lawn mower that works to eliminate all these bottlenecks in your mowing experience: the Poulan Pro Electric Lawn Mower. The Poulan Pro Electric Lawn Mower is a walk-behind lawn mower which uses lithium ion batteries for power. Walk-behind lawn mowers are known to be great for mowing small lawns unlike tractor lawn mowers and sit-on mowers. They are also cheaper than these and offer more versatility and maneuverability. If then you are facing…
Misdiagnosis for children Joey Rivera Professor Hodge Goodwin College English 300 11/23/15 Are meds necessary or are you a lazy parent? (Ellis, 2012, pg1)” Between 2005 and 2011 data had been collected to show that there was an increase in mental illnesses for children ages 3-17. “ADHD (6.8%) Behavioral or conduct problems (3.5%) Anxiety (3.0%) Depression (2.1%) Autism spectrum disorders (1.1%) (CDC, 2015, para 9” the problem with these numbers is not that there going up it is that…
The previous lab that was conducted dealt with oxidation, which is referred to as a compound gaining oxygen or losing electrons (Wyman, 2015). This week’s lab consisted of a reaction that was the opposite of an oxidation and it is known as a reduction reaction. To be more specific a reduction reaction is when the reactant that is present gains electrons, which is response lowers the overall formal charge of the compound. For instance, if there are two hydrogen ions and each one has a positive…
produced recently in America. More than 2,400 roadsters have been sold in 31 countries as of 2008. It costs $109,000 and to many governments around the world this car is considered very capable and encouraged. It also happens to be the first car to use lithium-ion battery and the first electric car to go over 320 km per charge. In a champion ship called Federation Internationale de l’Automobile that involved a three day and 1,000 kilometer challenge, one of the formula one drivers drove a Tesla…
