    I Love Jack Short Story

    • 1700 Words
    • 7 Pages

    I loved Jack so much he was my best friend and a brother to run to when things got bad, what I miss the most about him along with his smile, laugh, idiotic dancing, drinking competitions, crying on his shoulder, hanging out at Cronulla and just being around him made you forget everything on your mind. Before we all lost jack, I would sit there and hug him so tight and talk to him for hours each day, that 's how I know so much about depression, pain and other mental illnesses. I saw it all through my own eyes with him, all the demons inside and then I went through it. He would talk to me about his girlfriend, everything he was feeling and what she was doing to him that no human should ever treat their love ones. She pushed boundaries she should have never pushed, he once told me a massive part he didn 't want to be here besides all the other shit that was going on in his life was because of her. His love for her was infinity and the feelings for her was too hard to let go and he would rather chop it all then lose her, it was killing him and sending him insane, but he just surfed it off as it was his only escape to ease his mind and that 's how I learned to surf when I was about twelve and half years old, he taught me so I would have something to distract myself instead of destroying myself. I was too young to understand at the time, so I just sat there and listened, why I hate myself to this day because I couldn 't help him in time. All I could do was hug him and stuff.…

    Sodium Citrate Lab Report

    • 333 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The D-glucose serves to reduce the silver from Ag1- to Ag1+. The sodium citrate first reduces Ag1+ to Ag, and then functions to bind with the particle surface of silver nitrate particles to allow them to interact. Finally, silver nitrate can aggregate. The silver nitrate combined with D-glucose, sodium citrate, and heat forms an aggregate. The citrate binds with the particle coating and dispels the repulsion between silver nitrate nanoparticles. The nanoparticles then form an aggregate-- a loose…

Bacteria are prokaryotes, meaning the entire organism consists of a single cell with a simple internal structure. The DNA of a prokaryote is neatly packed in the nucleus. The bacterial DNA floats freely in a twisted thread-like mass called the nucleoid. Gold is unaffected by almost everything. The only materials that can affect gold…
