The book 20‚000 Leagues under the Sea written by Jules Verne was a science fiction novel of its time‚ originally published in 1870 in French‚ and later translated many different times. The copy of this book that I read was 418 pages long‚ published by The Floating Press and copyrighted by the same company in 2009. This book began with rumors of a large oceanic ‘beast’‚ hypothesised to be a ‘narwhal’ being seen by many different boats. Professor Pierre Aronnax‚ a French marine biologist‚ was given

Hess’s Law‚ the enthalpies of both reactions along with the enthalpy of water can be used to determine the enthalpy of formation for magnesium oxide. Such reactions will take place in a coffee-cup calorimeter which is made up of two Styrofoam cups and a top. It is assumed that the insulation provided by the cups will suffice in retaining the heat within the reaction so that an accurate reading can be derived. This assumption is essential to the accuracy of the results in both Part I of the experiment

From field to cup… How coffee is made Do you ever wonder how coffee is made? It’s not a simple process. There are three stages to make coffee: harvesting‚ processing and roasting. The first stage of making coffee is harvesting. Coffee trees take 3-5 years to produce their fruit and they require special attention to soil‚ light and climate to produce a quality harvest. The cherries are either picked by hand or machine harvested. Once harvested‚ the fruit must be removed from the cherry

In this experiment‚ a coffee cup calorimeter was used to measure the temperature readings of a neutralization reaction and magnesium oxide‚ MgO. Calorimetry is used to measure amounts of heat transferred to or from a substance.2 The difference of temperatures was used to calculate the heat energy given off by each sub-reaction. These values were solved by using Hess’s Law which determined the overall enthalpy changes of the neutralization reaction and MgO formation. Hess’s Law states that the heat

Opposites are found everywhere in the world. Almost everything in the world is an opposite and this can be seen in people as well. In the novel 20‚000 leagues under the sea‚ by Julius Verne‚ Pierre Aronnax is a scientist and studies organisms. Then the news starts reporting about a monster and Arronnax wants to find out what it is. So‚ he boards a government ship called the Abraham Lincoln with Conciel‚ his assistant. While on the Abraham Lincoln‚ professional harpooner‚ Ned Land is also on the ship

color of cups affects people’s rating of coffee. I remember when I did this experiment on Jenny‚ one of the teachers in THSI‚ she was surprised by the different flavor in different cups. I accepted some of my hypothesizes‚ and some is still unsure. The glass cup can provide the strongest feeling to the testee. And‚ the dark blue cup can enhance the sensation of either sweetness and bitterness. Besides‚ due to the close percentage between blue and white cup‚ it can not prove that white cup is more

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND I. A. About the Industry Coffee is a brewed beverage with a distinct aroma and flavor‚ prepared from the roasted seeds of the Coffea plant. A coffee plant is usually a bush or small tree that grows to 10-12 feet (although it can grow up to 32 feet) and can produce coffee beans for decades. It can live for between 60 and 70 years. It can take up to four years for a coffee tree to reach maturity and bear fruit. The English word coffee originates from the Arabic word ‘kaweh’ meaning
