    Types of Spectroscopy used in Organic Chemistry 1.1 Introduction Spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between matter and light (electromagnetic radiation) (Crouch & Skoog, 2007). It is often phrased as the light of knowledge (Reusch, 2013). In the past, spectroscopy started by the study of visible light dispersed according to its wavelength by a prism (Anon., n.d.). Now, with the knowledge of light having both wave-like and particle-like characteristics, with given frequency or…

    Critical assessment of the article: Quantitative analysis by Auger Electron Spectroscopy 1 Introduction When the outer electron fills the vacancy left by an ionized electron in the inner shell, the released energy can be passed to another outer electron that causes further emitting of an electron with characteristic energy, this is the basic principle of the Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) [1]. Nowadays, AES is almost an indispensable tool in nanoscience research for its high surface…

    Presentism is the view that all, and only, things that exist in the present, the now, exist. To determine whether something is part of the present means that you have to find what exactly determines the present. The common objection for presentism is by the use of the Special Theory of Relativity, or more specifically the relativity of simultaneity. The Special Theory of Relativity is a well confirmed physical theory of the measurement of non-accelerating frames of reference in all inertial…

    time trying to find the neutral particles. In 1932, Chadwick finally proved the existence of the neutron. In 1935, he received the Nobel Prize in physics for discovering the neutron. Discovering the neutron led to many other discoveries and changed science, such as neutrons being used to split heavy atoms apart, and atomic fission. Chadwick played an important role in history and the atomic bomb. In 1941, he wrote the final draft of the MAUD report, which inspired the United States government to…

    Dalton introduced his belief that atoms of different elements could be universally distinguished based on their varying atomic weights. John Dalton's research not only changed the face of chemistry but also initiated its progression into a modern science. In 1869 Dmitri Mendeleev discovered that the properties of elements "were periodic functions of the their atomic weights.” This later on became known as the “Periodic Law.” At his funeral…

    We all love screaming. So why don’t we do it more? I’ll tell you why!
