Aristotle, a Greek philosopher, studied many things but his greatest contribution to science was the idea…

 Second Law: The mass of substance produced in electrolysis directly proportional to its equivalent mass. W1 / E1 = W2 / E2 = W3 / E3...  Third Law: The mass of a substance produced in electrolysis is directly proportional to the number of electrons per mole needed to cause desired change in oxidation state. Conductivity When voltage is applied to the electrodes immersed into an electrolyte solution, ions of electrolyte move, and thus, electric current flows through the electrolytic…

Historical explanations and scientific explanations are very different and similar. A historical explanation is an account of an event or events in history and it can reveal when the event takes place, how it takes place and the events that prompted that particular event to take place.

humans should not just assume that they are the problem in the present climate change. “1,000 years ago—the early part of the second millennium—the temperature was even higher than today, worldwide (Baliunas). One thousand years ago there was no thermometers to take temperature. The way the decide what the temperature was is by glacial remains and old trees (Baliunas). Back then there was no human industry to cause a large period of global…

introduced through both the air and through food consumption. Cadmium is found in rechargeable nickel based batteries as well as cigarette smoke.

Chromium is found abundantly in many every-day items such as cement, anti-freeze, porcelain, ceramic, and even in tattoos. Arsenic is a very widespread metal and can be found in…

I came across a report Racial Bias in Health Care and Health penned by Dr. David R. Williams and Dr. Ronald Wyatt which discusses racial and ethnic disparities from a health care perspective and why steps should be taken to address it. He shares his experience when confronted with implicit and explicit bias as a patient at a local hospital. Implicit bias is behavior that results from subtle implicit attitudes and implicit stereotypes that often happen unconsciously and without any overt intent.…

Introduction: Enzymes have a huge effect on the human body and other organisms. Enzymes are catalysts that are used to accelerate the reaction process by lowering the activation energy. For this experiment the catechol oxidase was extracted from potatoes. The enzyme is called catechol oxidase because the oxygen is reacting to catechol. Catechol oxidase causes the browning of the fruits and vegetables because the compound is toxic to the bacteria. The purpose of this experiment is to…

person wants to kill and control weeds and unwanted plants, using hot water would be very effective, but not when trying to grow them. Some plants are more tolerant of hot water than others. Before you try to heat your plants, you should get a probe thermometer to make sure you know the water temperature that you are dumping on your plants. As long as you do not overheat your plant roots and leaves, watering with hot water will have no harmful effect. When you are heat treating plants this is an…

The Industrial Revolution is the development of industries on a large scale, and it is filled with factory owners and workers.
