The Ancient Greek astronomers played an integral part in the construction of modern astronomy and our current understanding of our solar system. They were far from the first ancient astronomers; most of their work was built upon pre-existing knowledge from the Babylonians and Egyptians. However, what distinguishes the Ancient Greek philosophers from their predecessors was their attempt to not only observe the night sky but also to understand it. The Greek astronomers theorised the workings of…
Tooth enamel is primarily made up of hydroxyapatite, a crystal composed of calcium, hydrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus. By replacing the hydroxyl molecule on hydroxyapatite, fluoride makes the enamel more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria; this is how fluoride works to protect teeth (University of Waikato). However, how much fluoride protects teeth is still…
“How are corporate agribusinesses polluting our water” Corporate agribusinesses could potentially be the number one polluter to the water supply today, harming marine life and even humans if the polluted water is consumed.

lower than that of a hammer made of steel forgings. What other factors should be considered in this choice? Would you choose cast iron or steel to make hammer heads? Answer Cast iron Cast iron contains “3% carbon, and approximately 1% silicon, phosphorus, sulphur, and manganese” (Xiong et al., 2011p 2978). The carbon carbon content makes it to be very hard. It is also known for its low tensile strength and being very brittle (Xiong et al., 2011). Cast iron is suitable for making abrasion…
Content Stoichiometry is the relationship of the masses of the reactants and products in a chemical reaction. For a given mass of a substance in a reaction, the mass of any other substance in the reaction can be obtained using the coefficients of the balanced chemical equations and the molar masses of the substances involved. The amounts obtainable from a balanced chemical equation are called stoichiometric amounts (Villamar Jr., 2004). As what was said in the introduction, the first topic that…
