regulate or research the effects of chemicals on living organisms can cause many health risks to their citizens and the environment. One such instance in history is in the United States of America after World War II‚ where synthetic chemical pesticides used by the government and farmers grow crops. Rachel Carson researched on why these pesticides were unsafe for humans‚ animals and especially nature. Rachel Carson fought to bring global attention to the use of chemicals. As well as launching the awareness

Titanium Titanium is a transition metal that was discovered in the year 1791 by an English pastor named William Gregor. The discovery was made when Gregor was by a Stream in the parish of Mannacan in Cornwall‚ England and found black magnetic sand. When Gregor analyzed this sand‚ he found out it was made up of the oxides of iron and an undefined and yet undiscovered metal.

FORMAL LAB REPORT INTRODUCTION John Dalton’s atomic theory states that elements combine in simple numerical ratios to form compounds. A compound‚ no matter how it is formed‚ always contains the same elements in the same proportion by weight. The law of mass conservation states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. In this experiment‚ the mass of the metal was not destroyed or created; the metal’s mass was simply changed into a compound form once the gas

I was assigned was the element Manganese. The symbol for manganese is Mn. It is number 25 on the periodic table. That means it has 25 protons and electrons even on mars or anywhere you go it will have the same protons and electrons. The atomic number would also be 25. It has 30 neutrons also in in the nucleus. The melting point for Manganese would be 1519 K (1246°C or 2275°F). The boiling point would be 1519 K (1246°C or 2275°F) according to http://education.jlab.org/. It also could be 1245.0 °C
