The purpose of the experiment is to perform a series of chemical reactions involving copper. The goal is then to perform precipitation, acid-base, decomposition, and redox reactions using the copper cycle. The mass of the copper was then analyzed using the percent recovery formula. Reaction 1: The Formation of Cu(NO3)2: Reaction 1 of the experiment involved performing a redox reaction to create Cu(NO3)2. Immediately after HNO3 was added to the copper wire (Cu), the brown NO2 gas was emitted from…
000 employees and a gross quarterly profit margin of 59.75% (Ycharts.com, 2015). Until the 1990’s, the business previously defined themselves as a chemical company, and was notorious for producing controversial products such as DDT, aspartame and Agent Orange. Currently, Monsanto manufactures herbicides and crop seeds to be sold for use in agriculture. Their largest products are the herbicide, glyphosate, (marketed under the name…
We grow up with people telling us "the sky is the limit", or other clichés that everyone believes in such as "you can do anything that you put your mind to". How can this be true if anything and everything worth trying is restricted? Therefore, the government should not set limits on artificial intelligence because it enforces a lack of creativity and will only be used to maintain a sense of dominance. Over the years artificial intelligence has provided us many different creative outlets to…
In this scholarly thesis by Pamela King, she goes very in-depth about the effects of Agent Orange on people during and after the war. Although she covered pretty much everything on the war in her one hundred plus page thesis, the main part to focus on is the section that talks about the legal actions taken by the U.S. veterans after the war. She goes into detail about the legal cases that were in action after the war. A specific suit that she talks about was filed in the Federal District Court…
developed the chatbot as to be able to achieve unique aspects that a human is unable to perform. These achievements are noted as, knowledge of multiple languages, able to handle multiple conversations, faster response time and cost effective (Live Chat Agents vs Chat Bots: The Future of Customer Service, 2017). Yet as with any multi-level platform there will always be the possibility of unforeseen…
In the past decade alone, the use of technology throughout society has increased dramatically. Technological advances have gone from being privileges to integral parts of the daily lives of a large population of the world. A shift towards developing artificial intelligence (AI) has occurred in order to increase convenience and efficiency of tasks and processes for individuals, businesses, and nation-states. However, unintended consequences have arisen alongside the rapid development of these…
The company Monsanto, is an economical farming worker organization that evolved and undergone numerous transforms since its Start done 1901. As stated by the mission proclamation the organization is" committed to supporting research with academic and USDA scientists who have complementary areas of expertise (Monsanto, 2014)." The organization has developed and broadened its product offering from synthetic items, for example, sweeteners and plastics to petroleum, bundling, and other materials. A…
AI; Its Dangers and Applications Artificial Intelligence, or, AI, is the intelligence displayed by machines or software. It is a common trope in the Science Fiction genre. Movies such as Blade Runner and 2001: A Space Odyssey all revolve around the concept of AI. Recent developments in computer technology and neuro research show that AI is on the horizon. An AI developed by the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence, named Artiso, “has passed the first-, second- and third-grade biology…

If they don’t die right away it’s almost inevitable that they will later on since there are many health side effects after being exposed to chemical weapons. Lastly informaction.org details the effects of chemical weapons on the environment. Agent Orange which is an aggressive herbicide was used in large scale in Vietnam and destroyed over 15% of their vegetation (http://www.informaction.org/index.php?menu=menua.txt&main=weapons_effects.txt&s=Weapons).
