In Plato ’s "The Allegory of the Cave‚" Socrates tells an allegory of the hardship of understanding reality. Using metaphors Socrates compares a prisoner in an underground cave who is exploring a new strange world he never knew of to people who are trying to find a position of knowledge in reality. Through it‚ Plato attempts to map a man ’s journey through education and describes what is needed to achieve a perfect society. According to Socrates‚ most people tend to rely on their senses excessively

disseminate information. According to official reports being received on the Hurricane Katrina incident‚ there have been reports that the public water supplies of several towns in the area becoming contaminated with a life-threatening biological agent. There will be several steps that will have to be taken into consideration to inspect the water within the town limits‚ but also within several lives to ensure safety. It is very important that no one is to drink or use the water. In contrast to

even bigger problems. Agent Orange was contaminated with TCDD‚ a toxic dioxin compound. Agent Orange’s was a powerful mixture of chemical defoliants. It was given its name from the color of the orange-striped barrels in which it was shipped. The government of Vietnam says that four million of their citizens were exposed to Agent Orange. Three million have suffered diseases. This includes the children exposed. The exposure causes many diseases and genetic mutations. How does Agent Orange tie into the

Student Name: Marwa Noaman ID: 51230262 Introduction: To determine a substance analytically‚ oxidation- reduction reactions are used. During any redox reaction transferring of reactions occurs from a reducing agent to an oxidizing agent. Purpose: * To titrate "Mohr’s salt" solution with KMNO4‚(second standard) which has to be standardize with oxalic acid (first standard). * To learn how acid-base reactions could be used in titration analyses of unknown substances

process where iodine is used as titrant for strong reducing agents. Another type of titration where iodine is involved is called iodometry‚ where iodine “is produced in-situ from the quantitative oxidation of iodide and then subsequently titrated with thiosulfate solution‚”2 being the difference from the former type of iodine titration. Iodometry is more widely used‚ as in this experiment‚ because there are only a few strong reducing agents; thus few iodometric determinations. (2) As mentioned earlier

are they are used to great effect‚ killing thousands and injuring many more. Chemical weapons were first used in combat in May 1915 when the Germans released chlorine gas against the French in the Battle of Ypres. Over the course of WWI new chemical agents were developed including cyanide‚ phosgene and mustard gas. The Geneva Protocol of 1925 condemned chemical weapons but states that if a state used chemical weapons retaliation in kind was acceptable. The treaty also did nothing to stem the production

In the displacement reaction of metals‚ the more electropositive metal will displace the less electropositive metal from its salt solution Through the observations of experiment results‚ aligning them with theory‚ oxidizing and reducing agents are distinguished.
