Number theory

Purpose: Utilizing our comprehension of the arrangement of the elements in the periodic table (the way elements with common traits are grouped together), we will determine the name and location of each unknown element by clustering said elements with other known elements that they share the most characteristics with. In this lab we will momentarily fill the shoes of the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, who was the first to observe the patterns between elements arranged according to their…

does not yet show to have a limit to the number of individuals in their population. Of course, there is a carrying capacity for these type of birds, as well, but this sample does not show to be large enough to exceed their limit. Since the graph shows a general upward trend, it can be concluded…

Primogeniture, a system that provided a form of transfer from the deceased to their children in chronological birth order, had revealed itself present during the Elizabethan Era, and also has shown present in Shakespeare's’ works, such as the comedy As You Like It. Primogeniture had played a hefty role in the Elizabethan Era, shaping society to what it is known as today. Numerous factors tell of the importance of primogeniture, and during the Elizabethan Era, it not only influenced many writers,…

Dalton Ellis Adv. Chemistry Mr. Lawson 6th 1/05/16 Reading Assignment I choose The Disappearing Spoon, by Sam Kean because I read short reviews on all the books on the reading list, and this one seemed the most interesting. After doing some research on the boom I found that it had great reviews online, and was one of the top ten most recommended books in the chemistry genre. This book caught my attention because it gave a brief history of many of the elements, and I was keen to learn how to…

german state of Hesse, where Hassium was first made. Hassium was discovered in 1984 by Peter Armbruster and Gottfried Munzenburg. These two inventors developed this element in Darmstadt, Germany which is located in Europe. Hassium has a atomic number of 108 as it is the 108th element on the periodic table. Hassium atomic symbol is simply just a capital h and a lowercase s “Hs”. The atomic mass of Hassium is rounded to 270, although some sources could say it is 269. Hassium is located…

My chemical element is Sulfur. If you were to be looking at a periodic table, its symbol would be S. Sulfur’s atomic number is 16. Sulfur has 16 protons, 16 electrons, and 16 neutrons. Sulfur’s atomic mass is 32.065 and its mass number is 32. Sulfur comes from the Sanskrit word “Sulvere” and also the latin word “Sulphurium”. Sulfur was discovered in Ancient times and has been mentioned in both the Bible and the Torah. Sulfur is commonly found in meteorites, volcanoes, hot springs, and as…

issues advocating against the abstract question of reality. In contrast, the aim of modern science has been, by employing the scientific method, to establish reality beyond any doubt. As a result, the public commonly accepts scientific findings and theories as undisputable truths. However, the certainty of modern science is misleading and continues to leave the question of reality open for…

Observation of a 5-year-old Purpose The purpose of this observational study is to gain perspective of the various theories of development that were taught in class. Also, to help the observer understand that observational research is complex and difficult to describe a five-year-old female child objectively. The observation took place in the child’s home for one hour while her parents were present during the study thus, the mother can sign the permission slip. Descriptive information The child…

How does science play in the explanation of reality? It would seem in that in the era we live in now science emerged to play a very big role. Considering that it is the largest bodies of investigation we have, along with being the most socially acceptable. Although, that seems to be the issue at hand here, that science discovers things about our reality and most people at large, tend to accept the reported findings. Most people walk through life reading magazines articles that report scientific…

experimental results show that the null hypothesis may be mistaken, and thus, in this case, it is discarded and replaced the hypothesis development and testing. In the case of a hypothesis that is not refuted by the results, it may form the basis for the theory to explain this phenomenon. Experimental science has placed the importance of the publication, they may be re-created by other researchers to prove the consistency of the rights of observation so that they might further refine the…
