THE STRUCTURE OF SILICON DIOXIDE Silicon Dioxide is commonly found in our daily lives- but what exactly is it? Silicon Dioxide (SiO2)‚ or Silica‚ is the most abundant compound of silicon found in the Earth’s crust‚ as well as a widely found oxide. Formed when silicon is exposed to the oxygen in the atmosphere‚ it is a giant covalent molecule with strong electrostatic forces of attraction between the adjacent non-metal oxygen and silicon atoms. Silicon Dioxide occurs in 13 different structural modifications

unethically. At the centre of the government’s policy on climate change is pricing carbon. Many commenters and politicians have referred to this as a “carbon tax”. The idea is that polluters will pay per tonne of carbon they release into the atmosphere. This cost will initially be set at $23‚ and increase gradually until 2015. This is widely thought of as the most effective and least costly mechanism to reduce carbon output and reduce the level of climate change that is occurring.

Carbon Footprint Report BIOS 125 June 17‚ 2012 Carbon Footprint Report Carbon footprint refers to the amount of carbon we emit individually in any one-year period. Carbon is produced from many sources and is the primary gas responsible for Global warming (What is a Carbon Footprint? Para 1). I discovered a way to actually see the amount of carbon I personally emit by using a carbon dioxide emission calculation. The carbon footprint is a very powerful tool to understand the impact of

Strontium Manganese Oxide Introduction The ternary inter oxide SrMnO3 was first characterized by XRD by Negas and Roth []. This perovskite type inter oxide crystallizes in the hexagonal form with the space group P63/mmC(194). This inter oxide is of considerable interest to materials scientists owing to its ability to accommodate a high degree of anion vacancies‚ crystal structure and its high Neel Temperature (TN). It also exhibits polymorphism with two different cubic and hexagonal structures
