Braaten} \address{The Ohio State University‚ Columbus‚ OH 43210} \maketitle \begin{abstract} In 1924 Albert Einstein predicted the existence of a special type of matter now known as Bose-Einstein condensation. However‚ it was not until 1995 that simple BEC (Bose-Einstein condensation) was observed in a low-density Bosonic gas. This recent experimental breakthrough has led to renewed theoretical interest in BEC. The focus of my research is to more accurately determine basic properties

Energy Efficient Condensing Gas and Oil Fired Boilers Condensing boilers are the most energy efficient central heating boilers on the market today. They can be up to 10-15% more efficient than a modern conventional boiler and up to 30% more efficient than older boilers‚ so the energy saving and the impact on your fuel bills can be significant. They achieve this high level of efficiency by removing the heat from the fuel it is burning and also cooling the products of combustion‚ which are normally

The water cycle is nature’s way of showing how water moves around. The water cycle is a continuous cycle where water evaporates‚ travels into the air and becomes part of a cloud‚ falls down to earth as precipitation‚ and then evaporates again. This never ending cycle is everywhere. One of the places that it occurs in is the Amazon Rainforest. The Amazon Rainforest is a unique habitat filled with wildlife. With its tropical weather‚ the Amazon has an abundance amount of rain per year. In addition

cases‚ we are ourselves the determinants of nature‚ since the use we make of natural forces produces the result we have caused. One such recent matter is the use of plastic. The term "plastics" covers a range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic condensation or polymerization products that can be molded or extruded into objects or films or fibers. They consist of long chains of polymers. Their name is derived from the fact that in their semi-liquid state they are malleable‚ or have the property of

Think back to big firework nights such as Bonfire Night and Ne Year’s Eve – has it often rained the following day? According to some‚ it does and for many the reason behind the rain isn’t merely a coincidence. They believe it is because of fireworks! But is it true that fireworks could change the weather and make it rain? Here’s a quick look at the theories and the science behind this long running myth. The Argument The argument that fireworks can make it rain comes from the composition of fireworks

atmosphere‚ and an even smaller amount of the Earth’s freshwater (0.003%) is contained within biological bodies and manufactured products.[2]Water on Earth moves continually through the water cycle of evaporation and transpiration (evapotranspiration)‚ condensation‚ precipitation‚ and runoff‚ usually reaching the sea. Evaporation and transpiration contribute to the precipitation over land. Water used in the production of a good or service is known as virtual water. Safe drinking water is essential to humans

Prelab 5B Macrocyclic Synthesis OBJECTIVE: The objective this week is to produce Tetraphenylporphyrin and its metal complex. This will be carried out by condensation of 4 equivalents of Benzaldehyde and pyyrole in the presence of propanoic acid. The product will undergo UV/Visible Spectrum tests to determine its lambda max. The lambda max will show us the relationship between a conjugated system and the visible spectrum. PROCEDURE: Step 1: preparation of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP)

occur during the formation of the polymer. Pre- lab questions 1. Is Nylon 66 a step or chain – growth polymer? Define both types of polymerization in your answer. Nylon 66 is a step-growth polymer Step-growth polymerization‚ also known as condensation polymerization‚ eliminates one small molecule when two monomer units are joined together. Chain-growth polymerization‚ also known as addition polymerization‚ joins monomer units without loss of atoms. (Blackman et al. 2012) 2. Draw the repeat
