The poem starts out describing the dreary streets with cheap hotels and restaurants where Prufrock lives. He is

Robert E Lee or Ulysses S. Grant. Unfortunately this question does not have an official answer on which general is better. People often speculate that question. Ulysses S. Grant was a better general than Robert E Lee because the north won the civil war‚ Grant was more dedicated that Lee‚ and Lee’s army was less experienced than Grant. All of those points makes Grant a better general than Lee. The civil war was not a fun battle. Many people died during that war. During the 1800’s the southern portion

Experiment 3: Separating and Determining the Mass of Calcium Ion in a Calcium-Enriched Tablet In this lab‚ we dissolved a calcium-enriched tablet and participate the calcium ion as calcium carbonate. Our purpose is to determine the masses of calcium carbonate and calcium ion‚ to determine the mass percent of calcium ion in the tablet and to compare the masses and the percent with the listed tablet ingredients. This time we used a 150mL beaker‚ analytical balance‚ forceps‚ a 50mL graduated cylinder

In the first process of the lab‚ you measure the mass of water transferred from a buret to a beaker‚ to determine the experimental mass of the water‚ and the volume of the water collected. We measured the temperature of the water so we could calculate the density of the water‚ which enabled us to calculate the actual volume of water‚ by using the density and the measured volume of water. To determine the percent error‚ we had to subtract the actual volume of water by the experimental volume of water

One of the wonders of this planet is water. Water makes up 65% of humans‚ and 70% of the Earth. It is also common knowledge that humans cannot survive three days without it. Water is essential. If almost three-fourths of Earth is made up of water‚ why are there still so many people in the world suffering from a lack of it? Although not all water can be used for drinking purposes‚ in many places‚ water that is drinkable- is polluted or deluded by many agricultural and industrial motives and damage

In the first week of the experiment‚ the goal was to find the moles of NaOH‚ as well as a 0.1 molarity‚ while in the second week to goal was to determine the percent KPH in the sample. The first week titrations were successful and had very similar amounts of pink‚ which shows the precision of the results. The best trials were in the sample trial and the second and third trials. The average molarity calculated for the first week was 0.1017 M. This very close to the 0.1 M that was supposed to be made

Who knew that all of this would have ended with a handshake. Ulysses S. Grant started with 100‚000 men and had lost 17‚000 men. First it was Shiloh then the battle at Richmond. Then the battle of the Missionary Ridge Siege of Petersburg‚The battle of Wilderness and many many more‚ who knows what’s to come next! Grant moved his troops south to Richmond the next morning. In 30 days Grant had lost 50‚000 troops. One day in the middle of the night a fire started in the woods where Grant and his troops
