    has come to create deals with our vehicles and the fuel they use. The EPA has released the RFS (renewable fuel standards) on the 30th of November 2015 and has two intentions. According to Manning, “ The RFS program is intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while reducing US dependence on oil imports. Under the program, a certain amount of renewable fuels must replace or reduce the amount of petroleum-based transportation fuel, heating oil, or jet fuel (Manning).” The EPA plans on mixing…

    The Greenhouse Effect Most people recognize global warming, but fail to recognize what is really behind it. In addition, most people would also recognize the concept of the greenhouse effect, or at least some variation of it. The fact is that the greenhouse effect is what leads to global warming, but how does that happen? Let’s start with some historical analysis of the topic. The greenhouse effect (or at least a rough version) was originally thought of and recognized by Jean Baptiste Joseph…

    the way we run things, are not particularly sustainable. Capitalism, to a certain extent, is what is causing the problem. The way we consume large amounts of resources with no conscience of what will happen in the future. What Klein suggest is a noble idea. My thoughts on this is that I don’t think nobody would argue with Klein that we are harming the environment, and that we should do something about it. However, what Klein suggests is harder to put into practice at a global level, even though…

    volatile liquids was utilized in this experiment to determine the molar masses of unknown volatile liquids by employing the ideal gas law in the course of vaporization and condensation of the liquids. This was done by taking measurements of volume, temperature, mass, and pressure throughout various steps of the experiement. These findings were then applied to the ideal gas law and molar masses were obtained. The experimental data found from the calculations were similar to the theoretical…

    connected to a power supply was used to heat up liquid nitrogen. Measuring the current and resistance in the circuit gave the power supplied to the liquid nitrogen and measuring how long it took for a fixed amount of nitrogen gas to be produced gave the rate of evolution of nitrogen gas. Plotting the power against the rate of evolution and determining the gradient yielded the value of 188 ± 22 kJkg¯¹ for the latent heat of vaporisation of nitrogen. This is within the accepted value of 199 kJkg¯¹…
