Robert Crowley Mr. Scott Period 3 October 30th 2015 Chemistry Introduction and Overview Elements are the substances that make up everything in the universe, known and unknown. This means that elements are what make up matter, and everything you see, hear and touch. There are 118 elements known to man, some that you may know include gold, iron and oxygen. Each of these have distinguishing qualities and they come in 3 different states of matter, solid, liquid and gas. Some of these are…

Mallory James Lynette Burdick CHM 130 11 November 2015 Fritz Haber: For Better and For Worse Fritz Haber, a scientist not well-known to many, has played an immense role for our world today. This paper will describe him, his contributions to the chemistry field, the hardships he had to go through during his career as a chemist and the contradictions of his inventions. Fritz Haber was born into one of the oldest families of Breslau, Germany (now part of Poland) on December 9, 1868. Sadly, his…

Henrietta Leavitt and Stephen Hawking are similar in a variety of different ways. Both Hawking and Leavitt have contributed a great deal to science. Stephen Hawking had discovered that radiation can escape black holes, and Leavitt had discovered the period-luminosity relationship as well as being fundamental in defining the size of the universe. According to the article on Henrietta Leavitt, “Before Leavitt established the period-luminosity relationship, astronomers could determine cosmic…

On November 11, 2002, A person name Jacob Higgins was born. His specialties include: Staying inside, gaming, sleeping, and watching youtube. One time, he went to school. He didn’t like it that much. He is currently in school right now writing this paper in third person. Hopefully the person reading this doesn’t mind. Anyway, he wants to program a game. Unfortunately, he will probably won’t achieve this. This is pretty much all. Is it? No. He likes to swim. He has friends. 7 I think? Recently,…

The Most Insurgent Scientist Many people have heard of Einstein, “he’s the really smart guy with the crazy hair.” Yes, he is that, but he is so much more than just the picture students see of him in their science classes. Einsteins is one, if not the, most influential scientific figures this world has ever seen. Walter Isaacson delves deep into Einstein's life to tell us that he is more than just the commercialized image we see him as today. Einstein His Life and Universe by Walter Isaacson…

Albert einstein Albert Einstein was an immigrant. He was born March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. According to the text, “ He was theoretical physicist for almost his entire life”. His dad was Hermann Einstein his mom was Pauline Einstein and his sister was Maja Einstein. Albert Einstein immigrated to the US on October 17, 1933. He immigrated because the appointment of adolf hitler as a chancellor took affect. Also he faced bad weather. He took…

A Rydberg atom is an atom with one or more electrons that have a high principal quantum number. Essentially, this means that the electrons occupy an electron shell further from the atom, and spend time further from the nucleus. These electrons have much higher energy and are less bound to their nucleus. Because of their behavior, they…

CMRJ341 Professor Jennifer Bourgeois October 18, 2015 Impact radial fracture lines ends shortly after the earlier impacts. In this case, bullet (C) was the first shot followed by (B) And lastly (A). In order to figure out the order of bullets is figuring out the radial fractures is looking at the initial fracture. Bullet fractures are round and has the same shape as a wheel. Fractures Also connects in the shape of a spider web. Then you have to figure out which side the fragment is facing in…

Electrons are small negatively charged particles that are found in the electron cloud of an atom. These electrons repel other negatively charged particles and are attracted to positively charged particles. They are important because they play a major role in creating chemical bonds between atoms and contribute to its mass. A scientist by the name of Robert Andrews Millikan won a Nobel Prize for his study and finding of the charge of an electron. His findings greatly helped the scientific…

From the times of the ancient Greeks to modern day, scientist have argued the concepts behind matter. During the time of Aristotle, philosophers created scientific theories based on logic alone, eliminating all scientific evidence. This is when Democritus proposed his theory. Later, Dalton proposed his theory after completing experiments about matter. Democritus's theory was the theory of atomos. He claimed that atomos were particles so small that they could no longer be divided. Democritus…
