Properties and changes are used to describe matter. A property is a trait of matter‚ when that sample of matter is in a fixed state. There are two different types of properties: physical properties and chemical properties. A change is something that alters the properties of a substance. There are two types of changes: chemical changes and physical changes. A physical property is a property that can be observed without changing the makeup (or composition) of a substance. Some examples of a physical

For example‚ in Queensland a deep‚ fertile clay soil is suitable for intensive agriculture but a shallow‚ sandy soil is better suited to grazing and growing native trees. The suitability of a soil for a particular purpose can often be

A Prudent Intellectuals point of view of whom should have won the questionably legitimate election race between George Walker Bush and Albert Arnold Gore‚ Jr has to put into account a culmination of impartially viewed facts and opinions from both sides of the argument‚ for example the system of counting votes through the means of puncturing chad through a perforated scantron-like card is highly flawed in many instances.“Due to the way a name is put on the voting plack‚ citizens may inadvertently

Emergent Properties Every living organism is composed of one or more cells. Each of these individual cells serves their own purpose. However‚ they are structured to work together to perform a function. Emergent properties are the properties in which components of a system that is working together has‚ yet when the components are broken down individually‚ they are lacking these properties. Examples of emergent properties include the human brain and ant colonies. An emergent property of the brain

Element: Simplest form of matter to have unique chemical properties. Atom: The smallest particles with unique chemical identities. Nucleus: Center of an atom (composed of protons and neutrons). Proton: Have a single positive charge (+1). Neutron: Have no charge. Electron: Tiny particles with a single negative charge and very low mass (-1)/determines chemical bonding properties of an atom. Atomic Number: Number of protons in the nucleus. Atomic Mass: Approximate number of protons and neutrons

The flow of warm ocean currents past drier land masses‚ such as the Gulf Stream‚ partially explains the elevated frequency of lightning in the Southeast United States. Because the influence of small or absent land masses in the vast stretches of the world’s oceans limits the differences between these variants in the atmosphere‚ lightning is notably less frequent there than over larger landforms
