many people come and go from the war. One person in particular has stuck out to us. This man is Benedict Arnold. Benedict Arnold was born on January 14‚ 1741. He was raised in Norwich‚ Connecticut. He was a member of the militia during the French and Indian war. (1754-1763) There is a memorial to Arnold at the Saratoga National Historic Park to commemorate him for his heroism. The statue even shows Benedict Arnold’s detached leg. He lost it in battle; which means he was willing to suffer a severe wound

1. Benedict Anderson/Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism: 1983 (Revised 2006)/Brooklyn‚ New York 2. What is the central theme – the topic – of the reading? “The reading is about....” Anderson articulates that a nation is an “imagined political community – and imagined as both inherently limited and sovereign” (6). People will not meet every person in their community and nationalism has been proven to be hard to define. The people from the same community will

Late in the fifth century the son of a well-off family in Italy left for isolation on his mission to truly seek god. This man was St. Benedict‚ who is credited with the first establishment of the concept of withdrawing from all temptation for Christian beliefs in the west. St. Benedict left his home and went to the top of a mountain‚ where he established a monastic community. In this community the individuals who resided there‚ constantly reiterated their faith. They sacrificed whatever they

Chemical Nomenclature refers to the naming systems used with chemical formulas. This worksheet focuses on the most basic chemicals and nomenclature systems. Please read the information concerning each problem set and then attempt the problems associated with that information. The simplest compounds contain just two elements. Sodium chloride‚ NaCl‚ is an example of a binary compound. Several other examples are listed below. Potassium bromide KBr Calcium bromide CaBr2 Lithium fluoride LiF

The book I have read for the book talk is The Mysterious Benedict Society written by Trenton Lee Stewart. Published in 2007. "You must remember‚ family is often born of blood‚ but it doesn’t depend on blood. Nor is it exclusive of friendship. Family members can be your best friends‚ you know. And best friends‚ whether or not they are related to you‚ can be your family" (Pg. 257). Four orphans‚ a boy named Reynard Muldoon (Reynie)‚ Kate Wetherall‚ Constance Contraire‚ and George

Experiment 16: Kinetics: The Iodine Clock Jane Smith Purpose: The objective of this experiment was for students to apply their knowledge of kinetics and rate laws in order to determine the rate of a chemical reactions‚ activation energy‚ and frequency factors of those reactions. Specifically‚ this experiment was performed using a series of solutions with varying concentrations of KI‚ Na2S2O3‚ and (NH4)2S2O3 . Students recorded time elapsed to observe physical evidence of a reaction taking place

China. Enormous quantities of opium made their way to China‚ swelled by the number of merchants involved. By the 1820s‚ the value of opium coming into China exceeded the value of goods exported out. Thus‚ the Chinese had to pay silver in addition to their goods to get opium. Silver shortages began to hurt peasants. To stop the trade‚ the Qing emperor sent a special commissioner‚ Lin Zexu‚ who froze all legitimate trade in Canton until foreign merchants handed over their opium stores. The opium traders

Experiment A1: Kinetics of the Reaction between Acetone and Iodine The key aim of this experiment was to determine the rate equation for the acid-catalysed iodination of acetone and to hence consider the insinuations of the mechanism of the rate equation obtained. The stoichiometric equation for the reaction between iodine and acetone is below‚ followed by the rate equation (where x‚y‚z and k are the values to be obtained): I2 + CH3COCH3 CH3COCH2I + HI -d[I2]/dt = k [I2]x [CH3COCH3]y [H+]z
