On August 6‚ 1945‚ the United States of America dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima‚ Japan. The United States was justified to do this because of the unprovoked attack and bombing of Pearl Harbor‚ Hawaii‚ which occurred three years prior to the bombing of Hiroshima‚ and it was necessary to stop the war because it saved thousands of American lives. Until then‚ the fight had never been on United States soil. The innocent civilians of Japan did not have to worry about being killed on their land until

suggestions come to mind‚ raging from the invention of the iPhone to the Civil War. I believe that the most important event was the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The dropping of the bombs saved over a million American lives‚ introduced America as a world power‚ and‚ if not most importantly‚ was the first steps into the Cold War. If the bombs had not been dropped‚ many American lives would have been lost‚ and the war could have dragged on for many more years. If “Operation Downfall”

Determination of the Resonance Stabilization Energy of Benzene Using Bomb Calorimetry Kaitlynn‚ Jesse ‚ Belinda Truman State University Abstract The resonance stabilization energy of benzene is investigated by the combustion of cyclododecatriene. The heat of combustion for cyclododecatriene was determined using bomb calorimetry and used to solve for the stabilization energy of benzene. The bond stabilization energy of benzene is found to be 167.6 ± 388

Who would have thought that people would resort to “dumpster diving” as a means of filling their bellies? It turns out freeganism‚ dumpster diving‚ is the result of years of protest against big business and is a logical way to help reduce consumer waste. Freegans are people who “use alternative ways of living based on limited participation in the conventional economy and minimal consumption of resources” (What Is A Freegan? 2008). Freeganism is the “summation of multiple ideologies and movements

My topic is the atomic bomb. Two questions I have are one‚ why did the atomic bomb happen? Two‚ how did the atomic bomb change the world? The sub-topics introduce the Manhattan project. Japan refused to surrender‚ why the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki? The atomic bomb was first used in warfare at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in august 1945‚ and the bomb played a key role in ending World War II. The Atomic bomb created the Manhattan project. The Manhattan

The End of World War II The United States Decision to drop the Atomic bomb has been a controversial topic since the day the first bomb was dropped August 6‚ 1945. President Harry Truman made the ultimate decision to use the atomic bomb‚ to him it was a clear decision that this would end the war with America’s most hated enemy: Japan (Nathan‚ 2012). There had been thousandths of bloody deaths up to-this-point in the war‚ Japan was destroyed‚ they had just about nothing‚ their country was in starvation

The goal of this experiment is to determine the enthalpy of combustion of naphthalene by means of a bomb calorimeter. First‚ the bomb calorimeter was standardized using benzoic acid and the average heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter was calculated to be 10.60.3205 kJ/K. From that‚ the These results show that heats of combustions of unknown substances can be determined via bomb calorimetry. Introduction The first law of thermodynamics states that energy is conserved.2 Using that law it can
