The Penny What do you think about the penny? The penny is a coin that is worth one cent. It is made of copper and zinc. Should we keep this coin or get rid of it? The thing is‚ we should get rid of it. We shouldn’t keep the penny because it is worthless‚ wastes time‚ and costs more to produce than it is worth. The penny takes up too much space in many ways. The penny is rarely used and is usually just put or thrown away. “We often store them in jars...” (Sommer). Why do people store them in jars

Penny-Ante Equilibrium Introduction What is equilibrium? What happens to the amount of reactants and products when equilibrium is reached? What if more reactants or products are added to a system already at equilibrium? In this activity‚ pennies will be used as reactants and products in a reversible reaction to answer these questions and learn more about the fundamental nature of equilibrium. Concepts • Reversible reactions • Equilibrium • Equilibrium constant • LeChatelier’s principle Materials

Pennies don’t put in their two cents for their place as a part of American currency. It’s not like they’re particularly useful. Almost nobody picks them up unless it’s in the hope that the face of the long-deceased Abraham Lincoln might bring them good fortune of some odd sort. Thieves don’t scrounge around people’s pockets for pennies‚ and then have the person call the police for their missing penny. When most people say that they want to keep the penny‚ most of the time it will simply be an infantile

Chemistry and Society Teresa Miller University of Phoenix CHM 110 September 9‚ 2014 William De Vorick Chemistry is defined as the branch of science that deals with identification of the substances of which matter is composed; the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact‚ combine‚ and change; and the use of these processes to form new substances. Chemistry is important to my everyday life and society because everything exists because of chemistry

The Inorganic Chemistry of Carbon Inorganic Carbon For more than 200 years‚ chemists have divided compounds into two categories. Those that were isolated from plants or animals were called organic‚ while those extracted from ores and minerals were inorganic. Organic chemistry is often defined as the chemistry of carbon. But this definition would include calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and graphite‚ which more closely resemble inorganic compounds. We will therefore define organic chemistry as the study

government leaders: should America continue or discontinued the penny? Well‚ why continue a coin of such little value and significance? The penny should be eliminated because the uneconomical coin is a waste of time‚ resources‚ and money. Too much time is spent in vain searching for lost pennies. According to MIT graduate Jeff Gore‚ mentioned in the article Penny Pinchers by Rick Khan‚ four hours are spent per year looking for pennies. “If each person’s time is worth $15 per hour‚ then each person

loss from the hot water from combining it with the cold water. As discussed in a page titled Heat Capacity2‚ the heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat it takes to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree (in this case C). In the experiment performed in lab‚ the heat capacity of the calorimeters was calculated by subtracting the heat gain from the heat loss and then dividing that by the difference in the temperatures between cold water and the combination of the hot and cold water
