Chemistry Pg. 1 Carbon Dating Carbon dating is the most reliable‚ commonly used‚ and useful dating method‚ for what it can date. It is used to date late Pleistocene and Holocene artifacts and geologic events up to 50‚000 years decayed. Carbon dating has been very beneficial to the scientific world‚ because it is used in so many different fields of science‚ including archaeology‚ geology‚ oceanography‚ hydrology‚ atmospheric science‚ and paleoclimatology. The radiocarbon dating method was developed

"A carbon fiber is a long‚ thin strand of material about 0.005-0.010 mm in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. The carbon atoms are bonded together in microscopic crystals that are more or less aligned parallel to the long axis of the fiber. The crystal alignment makes the fiber incredibly strong for its size. Several thousand carbon fibers are twisted together to form a yarn‚ which may be used by itself or woven into a fabric. The yarn or fabric is combined with epoxy and wound or molded

Carbon Nanotubes Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a recently discovered allotrope of carbon. They take the form of cylindrical carbon molecules and have novel properties that make them potentially useful in a wide variety of applications in nanotechnology‚ electronics‚ optics‚ and other fields of materials science. They exhibit extraordinary strength and unique electrical properties‚ and are efficient conductors of heat. Inorganic nanotubes have also been synthesized. A nanotube is a member

Healing Wonders of Charcoal Chapter One The Problem Introduction The use of charcoal as a simple remedy for different health problems is an ancient way of treating many common diseases that afflict humankind dates back to the time of Hippocrates who lived from 460 to 370 B.C. In the late 1800‚ Ellen G. White spearheaded the use of charcoal in the treatment of different diseases. A sincere and prayerful Christian‚ she wrote many books including health books such as: Ministry of Healing‚ Medical

Adsorption is operative in most natural physical‚ biological‚ and chemical systems‚ and is widely used in industrial applications such as activated charcoal‚ synthetic resins and water purification. Similar to surface tension‚ adsorption is a consequence of surface energy. In a bulk material‚ all the bonding requirements (be they ionic‚ covalent or metallic) of the constituent atoms of the

which monitors the quality of waters all year. The network monitors waters all over India. Samples of water are taken frequently and checked for bacteria and other harmful substances within the water. Other ways of sewage treatment include air flotation‚ dual media filter‚ activated carbon filter‚ sand filtration and sludge drying beds. These methods all take place in sewage treatment plants. Water treatment plants are very expensive and are needed to be maintained constantly. Removal of sludge is said to be the most untreated area of water treatment

Carbon‚ an element discovered before history itself‚ is one of the most abundant elements in the universe. It can be found in the sun‚ the stars‚ comets‚ and the atmospheres of most planets. There are close to ten million known carbon compounds‚ many thousands of which are vital to the basis of life itself. Carbon occurs in many forms in nature. One of its purest forms is diamond. Diamond is the hardest substance known on earth. Although diamonds found in nature are colorless and

somewhere on time. Car emissions produce three types of carbon - Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and hydrocarbon (CH4) - which are traumatizing both our health and the environment. By itself‚ carbon isn’t a harmful element‚ but one of its characteristics is easily pairing up with majority the elements in the periodic table. Its ability to bond is infinite; it can create many different substances without any problems. Carbon Monoxide is a poisonous gas‚ that leads to severe poisonings
