fad is the “3 Day Chemical Breakdown Diet”. The claims being are that the food being eaten in this diet is chosen in a unique way with unique combinations to chemically react and breakdown fat without exercising. Also‚ they Claim that one can lose up to 10 pounds in just 3 days. These are not considered as valid claims for many reasons. I have tried this diet and I know what they tell us to eat. They make us eat between 700 and 1000 calories maximum‚ so even without any chemical reactions‚ one will

“A brief history of chemical warfare” By Harold Maass For more than 2‚000 years. As early as 600 B.C.‚ the Athenians poisoned the wells of the Spartans‚ who later tried lobbing burning sulfur pitch over the walls of Athens‚ hoping to fill the city with toxic smoke. Genghis Khan used that same trick‚ catapulting burning sulfur pitch during his siege of fortified cities around A.D. 1200. Over the centuries‚ various armies put poisons on arrows and in bullets to make them more lethal. But it wasn’t

Total continuity equation is the principle of the conservation of mass when applied to a dynamic system. The unit of this equation is mass per time. In overall balance‚ only one TCE can be written. CCE is based on component balance. Unlike mass‚ chemical components are not conserved. If reactions occur on a system‚ the number of moles of an individual component will increase if it is a product and will decrease if it is a reactant. The unit of CCE is moles of component per unit time. While EE‚ the

Overview Chemical Warfare is using the chemical properties of a substance to your advantage during war. This has been going on for centuries. Even the most basic forms of weapons were used. People have been putting poison on the end of their spears and arrows since they have been around. Over the years‚ it has also developed into much more advanced chemistry. In this article‚ I am going to focus on the more advanced‚ modern uses of chemical warfare in World War I and World War II. World War
