The atomic bomb was necessary due to the Japanese’s refusal to surrender

advisors made the decision to drop the atomic bomb‚ they thought it would end the war. The dropping of the atomic atomic bomb had many successful tactics. It created great peace for the US from the fact that it ended total war. After the US had lost millions to the war‚ it was ready to make a change to end all war.

The Atomic Bomb: Effects on Hiroshima and Mankind The nuclear bomb was the most devastating weapon ever created by man. It was developed between 1942 and 1945 during the second World War. The project to build the worlds first atomic weapon was called The Manhattan Project. The nuclear bomb was based on the idea of splitting an atom to create energy‚ this is called fission. Three bombs were created‚ "Trinity"‚ "Little Boy"‚ and "Fat Man". "Trinity" was dropped on a test site in New Mexico on July

This question has been floating around the air for years now‚ The first bomb was dropped on the city of Hiroshima‚ Japan in 1945 of August 6. This devastating bomb killed around 135‚00. There was also a second bomb that hit Nagasaki on August 9th that killed approximately 50‚000. But the question remained was this necessary? In my opinion YES! Dropping the bomb was very necessary‚ it was also reasonable considering the fact that US lost a total of more than 418‚000 both military and innocent civilians

Chemistry of Bath Bombs Date: 16th May 2014 Introduction – When sodium bicarbonate and citric acid mix in water they dissolve‚ the sodium bicarbonate reacts with the citric acid to form sodium citrate and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide then bubbles out as a gas‚ which makes the bath bomb break up‚ in this experiment 3 tests will be conducted in order to find the correct ratio of bicarbonate soda and citric acid to create the

about how this war really ended? It obviously had to have taken a very powerful army or leader‚ but that wasn’t the case. What really caused this national turmoil to come to an end was the dropping of the most deadly weapon known to mankind: the atomic bomb. The year is 1939‚ and a world war is on the rise. America really wanted to create a weapon that they could use if worse comes to worse. Albert EInstein had written

announced his decision to support the development of the hydrogen bomb‚ a weapon theorized to be hundreds of times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Japan during World War II. He approved of the funding for the nuclear weapon because of several events prior to his public announcement. One of the reasons was the fact that the United States had lost its nuclear supremacy when the Soviet Union successfully detonated an atomic bomb at their test site in Kazakhstan in 1949. Another reason why

you’re bound to see updates on some war happening in some country. One thing that everyone on this planet seems to have in common is that no matter where one lives or who they are we all cannot escape the impact of war. The poem The Diameter of the Bomb brings this idea to light by talking about how the impact of violence doesn’t stop within the area it happened. “At the distant shores of a country far across the sea includes the entire world in the circle. And I won’t mention the howl of orphans

Experiment B2‚ Heats of Combustion – The Bomb Calorimeter. Objectives: To calibrate a bomb calorimeter by the combustion of benzoic acid. Then to use the calibrated calorimeter to measure the heat of combustion of naphthalene and calculate the heat of formation of naphthalene. Theory: q = C.ΔTBA C = q / ΔTBA Moles = mass / Mr ΔŪ = ΔU / moles ΔHoc‚298 = ΔŪoc‚298 + PDV = ΔŪoc‚298 + RTΔn C10H8 (s) + 12O2 (g) 10CO2 (g) + 4H2O (l) ΔHoc‚298 = - 1
