well be hydrogen. Automakers rapidly are closing in on making hydrogen fuel cell vehicles an everyday fact of life‚ with several test models set to debut over the next few years. Hydrogen fuel cells to power vehicles are desirable‚ experts say‚ because hydrogen is a renewable fuel that can be used to create electricity to run cars. A chemical reaction between oxygen and hydrogen produces the electric power‚ and when pure hydrogen is used‚ the only emission from the tailpipe is harmless water vapor

Oxygen Revolution {text:bookmark-start} {text:bookmark-end} Oxygen Revolution {text:bookmark-start} {text:bookmark-end} Oxygen Revolution The oxygen revolution‚ which is sometimes known as the oxygen catastrophe is believed to have occurred about 2.4 billion years ago with the evolution of cyanobacteria‚ a type of blue- green algae. Before this time‚ the atmosphere had a very different chemical make-up‚ high in carbon molecules; unsustainable for life as known today. These prokaryotes

Chemistry 2500- Exercise C4 The Emission Spectrum of Atomic Hydrogen Objective The purpose of this lab was to calculate an experimental value for the Rydberg constant and then the ionization energy for the hydrogen atom. These values will be obtained by using a prism spectrograph to measure the wavelength value for a section of the visible line spectrum of atomic hydrogen. Theoretical Background When H+ combines with an electron it forms it’s excited state‚ H. This excited atom

Claire Kerns Bio Per.1 2-13-13 Cancer reflection Is cancer a disease due to genetics or environment? Cancer is a disease both caused by genetics and environmental factors. Each person has either proto-oncogenes or oncogenes. These are the genes that are responsible for regulating cell division. When a person has an oncogene it is a mutation of a proto-oncogene. The oncogene (dominant gene) tells the cell to continuously divide. This can be a problem if the cell is cancerous. Cancer cells

Chemistry Write-Up The Thermal Decomposition of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate Aim: When Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate (NaHCO3) is heated‚ Carbon dioxide and water are given off to leave a white powder. The aim is to find the equations for this reaction. Hypothesis: The experiment will prove which of the equations below is true. It will tell us whether Sodium Carbonate is produced or Sodium Oxide. 2NaHCO3 Na2CO3 + CO2 + H2O 2NaHCO3 Na2O + 2CO2 + H2O Variables: Independent: Original

Collecting Butane Gas The purpose of the lab was to determine the molecular mass of Butane‚ and this was done by using the ideal gas law (PV=nRT). The materials used were: match‚ funnel‚ bucket‚ cylinder‚ thermometer‚ lighter‚ scale‚ and a wooden flynt. These materials are used to help collect and test the Butane gas. Butane gas was used because it is ideal at standard temperature and pressure. Procedure: 1. Rinse bucket and fill three fourths full. 2. Rinse all glassware. 3. Place

The Saga of the Volsungs: The Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer In his translation of The Saga of the Volsungs: the Norse Epic of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer‚ Jesse L. Byock compiles many versions of this famous Norse epic and creates a very important scholarly work. Of special importance is the introduction‚ which provides a central working background to base readings upon. There are several themes echoed throughout the translation that reflect accurately on this portion of history. Byock
