I have always believed that climate change exists and I have seen proof of it. Speaking of proof‚ an example is a graph that NASA has created that explains the drastic increase of the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the past few years. As you can see from the graph‚ the graph sharply inclined upwards around the past century‚ passing the line shown in the graph. I have also witnessed glaciers melting away and Arctic and Antarctic animals hopelessly trying to cope with melting ice. However

Climate change is creating vulnerability. Sewage treatment plants are susceptible to major failures and overflows because of rising seas‚ more intense coastal storms‚ and increased heavy precipitation events. In 2012‚ Climate Central’s comprehensive analysis of sea level rise‚ stated more than two-thirds of costal locations in the U.S. will be affected by global warming that has more than doubled the chances of a hundred year storm surge occurring within the next year. (Hurricane Sandy) The higher

Currently‚ our planet is going through a series of significant climate events that is potentially leaving an impact. Global warming has been at the center of creating destructive climate change. By increasing the amounts of greenhouse gases‚ humans are creating an environment with hotter temperatures‚ melting ice caps‚ and rising sea levels. To add on‚ scientists are now worried that humans are potentially destroying the oceans by creating an acidic environment in the water. The acidic environment

COORDINATION COMPOUNDS: * FLEXIDENTATE CHARACTER OF POLYDENTATE LIGANDS; * Poly dentate ligands have flexi dentate character in the sense that all donors atoms may not form coordinate bonds with the central metal atom or ion. For example; EDTA which is the hexa dentate ligand also acts as tetra dentate or penta dentate in certain complexes. Similarly sulphate ion‚ which is a bi dentate ligand‚ also acts as a mono dentate ligand in certain complexes‚ e.g. in [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]Cl. * LABILE
