We the US Chambers of Commerce feel that it is in the best interest of both the US and Cuba to bury the hatchet. The US and Cuba have had bad blood since the 1960s when the Eisenhower Administration banned trading between Cuba and US except medicine and food. There were many reasons for the embargo like communism in Cuba‚ Cuba taxing American products heavily‚ and Cuba allowing the Soviet Union to build missiles bases in Cuba which ultimately resulted in the Cuban Missle Crisis. It is absurd in today’s

Your brain is primal and animalistic. Every single thing you do or think is because of a primal instinct. Even writing papers for school assignments can be traced back to a basic need for survival. Ask yourself: Why do you write papers for school? Because you will get good grades so that you can get a better job with a better degree to make more money so that you can afford food‚ water‚ and shelter. Basic needs for survival. It’s that simple. Although to take it one step further‚ the ultimate‚ subconscious

BasesLewis acids and bases play an important role in chemical reactions because‚ except oxidation-reduction reactions‚ almost every reaction could be categorized as an acid-base reaction. Bases in water solutions show certain specific characteristics: bitter taste‚ feel slippery‚ and turn litmus paper blue. Acids in water solutions show these most common characteristics: sour taste‚ react with metals‚ and turn litmus paper red. The understanding of chemical reactions‚ such as acid and base interactions‚

Two key factors that contribute to the ease of deprotonation are the polarity of the H—A bond and the size of atom A‚ which determines the strength of the H—A bond. Acid strengths are also often discussed in terms of the stability of the conjugate base. Sulfonic acids‚ which are organic oxyacids‚ are a class of strong acids. A common example is toluenesulfonic acid (tosylic acid). Unlike sulfuric acid itself‚ sulfonic acids can be solids. Superacids are acids stronger than 100% sulfuric acid. Examples

CHEMICAL REACTIONS: ACID-BASE BUFFERS Short Overview Acids and bases represent two of the most common classes of compounds. Many studies have been done on these compounds‚ and their reactions are very important. Perhaps the most important reaction is the one in which an acid and base are combined‚ resulting in the formation of water (in aqueous solution) and a salt; this reaction is called neutralization. A buffer solution is a solution that contains both an acid and a salt

we were always given the option to live on base or off. The answer has always been the same‚ off base. I enjoy living off base because we have more freedom‚ a sense of normalcy‚ more income‚ and a better way to experience the culture in Spain. Being able to live off base has always been a better experience for us and we always enjoy the different homes we are able to choose from. First I enjoy living off base because we have more freedom. Being off base we still have to follow certain rules of the

Acid and Base Titrations: Preparing Standardized Solutions Introduction: This experiment focuses on titrations of acids and bases. A titration depends on addition of a known volume of solution and is a type of volumetric analysis. Many titrations involve either acid-base reactions or oxidation-reduction reactions. In this experiment we do one of each. We monitor the pH of the reaction with the use of a color indicator. We also learn about the standardization of bases (NaOH) and acids (HCl) which
