lobe of the brain can cause an individual to develop different impulses and as well impulsive behavior (Schwartz‚ 2012). There are even disorders and illnesses such as Depression‚ Schizophrenia‚ and Bipolar Disorder believed to be the result of chemical imbalances in the brain. However‚ biological factors can also determine decisions and actions. Pharmaceutical medications have shown that people make different decisions when on the medications versus when not on them.

Chemical equilibrium is a state of balance within a system of chemical reactions. Equilibrium in chemistry is achieved when substances are produced and broken down at the same rate and thus‚ the number of molecules of each substances becomes constant. Thermodynamics is a branch of physical science that involves the relationship between heat and other forms of energy (Energy‚ Enthalpy‚ and the First Law of Thermodynamics). There is a more specific area of thermodynamics that explicitly pertains to

Eggs are a key ingredient used to make a foam. Investigate the functional and chemical properties of eggs and other ingredients when making meringue. Chemical and Functional properties of eggs: Background information Eggs give a smoother texture to microwaveable dishes‚ frozen dishes are better to freeze. The yolk and the egg white cam be used in many different ways for different products of food. Eggs contain a lot of protein and a balance of other nutrition. Some producers require fresh eggs to

Naming Chemical Compounds General Information: Scientists all around the globe use a standard method for naming chemical compounds. The standards were set up by an international committee sponsored by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). Having this standard makes life easier for people who use these compounds everyday. It would be tough to set up any experiment if scientists everywhere used different names for the same compound. It would also make the lab a

CHM1022 Tutorial 2 – Semester 2‚ 2012 (Chemical Equilibria) 1. The reaction 2 HCl(g) +I2(s) [pic] 2 HI (g) + Cl2(g) has Kc = 1.0 x 10-34 at 25˚C. If a 1.00 L reaction vessel initially contains 0.100 mol of each HCl and solid I2‚ what are the concentrations of HI and Cl2 at equilibrium? 2. Consider the following gas-phase reaction and equilibrium constant at 25 oC: 4 HCl(g) + O2(g) [pic] 2 Cl2(g) + 2 H2O(g) The concentrations of all species were measured at a particular

The objective: In this experiment‚ I decided to find out how temperature would affect endothermic reactions compared to exothermic reactions. An endothermic reaction absorbs energy in the form of heat. This reaction feels cold because it is taking heat away from its surroundings. It also releases gases. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy as heat. Since the energy is released‚ the exothermic reactions feel hot. Methods/Materials I did three experiments. I mixed lemon juice

Question 1 Issues Arising From Case The issues are the future viability of the plant for producing EPC and the long-term effects of not upgrading this production line. The additional upgrade will result in additional production‚ but as mentioned by the sales director if there is no demand for the increase in supply and Rotterdam plants excess will be added to the Mersey side quantities the plant upgrade could ultimately result in a dropping of prices to shift supply.

Chemical equilibrium is the point at which the concentrations of reactants and products do not change with time. It would appear as if the reaction has stopped‚ but in fact‚ the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal‚ causing the reactants and products to be created at the same rate. This can be expressed mathematically in the form of the equilibrium constant. The following is the general equation for a reversible chemical reaction: aA+bB →cC+dD
