The Impact of the Paris 1919 Peace Conference on Japan and China During the late 1800’s‚ the continent of Asia was unstable and was experiencing turbulent change. Specifically‚ Japan and China had an ethnocentric view of their own civilizations‚ for they strived to remain isolated from Western culture‚ viewing themselves as far more superior than European societies. However‚ they were not able to remain isolated‚ as the British penetrated into China‚ while the U.S. was able to open trade with

Elimination Reactions ________________________________________ As described previously‚ primary alkyl halides generally undergo substitution reactions with simple nucleophiles by an SN2 mechanism. Secondary alkyl halides‚ often react with simple basic nucleophiles to give a mixture of products arising from both substitution and elimination. As with substitution reactions‚ the rate at which elimination reactions proceed can be proportional to both the concentration of the base and the concentration

Polymerization reaCTIONS polymers are high-molecular-weight compounds‚ fashioned by the aggregation of many smaller molecules called monomers. Ex. plastics that have so changed society and the natural and synthetic fibers used in clothing are polymers. Classification of polymers Homopolymers - consist of repeated long chains or structures of the same monomer unit. Ex. PVC(polyvinyl chloride) Copolymers - polymers that consist of more than one molecule. Trimers - molecules consisting

Elizabeth Cooper MGT-106 Ball May 20‚ 2010 Self-Assessment Reaction Paper Summary It is not easy to describe yourself and to be truly honest. The way you think of yourself and how another person might think of you could be completely different. This class has helped me to understand myself better and accurately describe me. If I had to describe myself‚ I would say that I am very laid back and easy going. I do not let small things bother me. I feel you should “pick your battles” sort of

My Reaction to Apollo 13 The movie Apollo13 is great but little kind of boring. Tom Hanks is a great artist! He is my idol. One of his great movie is Forrest Gump. By the way‚ The Apollo13 is America’s third moon landing mission. En route‚ an onboard explosion deprives their spacecraft of most of its oxygen supply and electric power‚ forcing NASA’s flight controllers to abort the Moon landing‚ and turning the mission into a struggle to get the three men home safely. I thought Jim’s wife was his

1. Balancing these privacy interests against the public interest in disclosure displays a one-sided scale—weighing heavily on the side of non-disclosure. Now having presented Joe Smith’s privacy interest‚ the court must now strike the balance between the privacy and public interests. The purpose of FOIA was to open government agencies to “the light of public scrutiny.” See Ray; see also DOJ Reporters. So‚ if the files do not constitute a “clearly” unwarranted invasion of personal privacy‚ then

ENGINEERING Reaction Engineering CGC035 / CGC052 Problem Sheet 3 - Fluid-fluid reactions 1. The reaction rate for the heterogeneous reaction A(g) + B(l)→ products is second order according to the expression -rA=kCACB and it is relatively slow compared to mass transfer so it takes place in the bulk of the liquid. Combine the following rate expressions for diffusion through the gas and liquid films‚ -rA=kAga(pA-pAi) and -rA=kAlaCAi-CA‚ with Henry’s law pAi=HACAi and the reaction rate
