applications also exist or are being developed‚ including use as semiconductors: some blue diamonds are natural semiconductors‚ in contrast to most diamonds‚ which are excellent electrical insulators. The conductivity and blue color originate from boron impurity. Boron substitutes for carbon atoms in the diamond lattice‚ donating a hole into the valence band. Substantial conductivity is commonly observed in nominally undoped diamond grown by chemical vapor deposition. This conductivity is associated with

Chemical Prperties of Metals Most metals are chemically reactive‚ reacting with oxygen in the air to form oxides over changing timescales (for example iron rusts over years and potassium burns in seconds). The alkali metals react quickest followed by the alkaline earth metals‚ found in the leftmost two groups of the periodic table. Examples: 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O (sodium oxide) 2Ca + O2 → 2CaO (calcium oxide) 4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3 (aluminium oxide) The transition metals take much longer to

CHAPTER I (The Theoretical and the Problem) Introduction In the plant kingdom flowers are what we think the world represents. Flowers are given to people as well as most likely they are roses‚ tulips and any other beautiful flowers we can think of. In the Philippines there is a flower that’s not so attractive but it makes up for the uses and the pleasing aroma it radiates. It is the sampaguita flower of the Philippines; it is also the national flower of the Philippines. Sampaguita is very

APPLICATIONS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN LASER TECHNOLOGY WHAT IS AN ORGANIC COMPOUND? An organic compound is any member of a large class of gaseous‚ liquid‚ or solid chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon. Organic chemistry is the science concerned with all aspects of organic compounds. Organic synthesis is the methodology of their preparation. APPLICATIONS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS clothing of cotton‚ wool‚ silk‚ and synthetic fibres; common fuels‚ such as wood‚ coal‚ petroleum‚ and natural

scientific report. By mixing the sodium borate solution with the PVA solution‚ non-Newtonian fluid- like properties start to become apparent. When kneading the SLIME‚ the strands of pva are held together on a molecular level by joining them with bridges of boron dioxide from a borate molecule. Sodium tetraborate decahydrate is commonly used.1 Procedure The experimental procedure conducted is explained in detail in the manual2 Data Table 1: Preparation of sodium borate solution CHEMICAL COMPOUND AMOUNT
