Henry Moseley (November 23‚ 1887 – August 10‚ 1915) was an English physicist. His main contributions to science were the quantitative justification of the previously empirical concept of atomic number‚ and Moseley’s law. This law advanced chemistry by immediately sorting the elements of the periodic table in a more logical order. It also advanced basic physics by providing independent support for the Bohr model of the Rutherford/Antonius Van den Broek nuclear atom containing positive nuclear charge

The April 1986 disaster at the Chernobyla nuclear power plant in Ukraine was the product of a flawed Soviet reactor design coupled with serious mistakes made by the plant operatorsb. It was a direct consequence of Cold War isolation and the resulting lack of any safety culture. The accident destroyed the Chernobyl 4 reactor‚ killing 30 operators and firemen within three months and several further deaths later. One person was killed immediately and a second died in hospital soon after as a result

the damp conditions. 2. Make a Boric Acid Paste Boric acid paste is an excellent home remedy on how to get rid of silverfish naturally. The silverfish bugs will ingest the boric acid when they come into contact. Eventually‚ they are killed from the boron that their bodies cannot excrete. • Make a paste using flour‚ water‚ and boric acid. • Place paste on the areas where there are silverfish bugs. • Ensure the paste is far from young children and pets 3.

BENIFICIAL AND ALTERNATIVELY NOT SO BENIFICAL USES OF RADIATION BY: Sanwal Hayat What is radiation? Radiation is away in which energy moves from one place to another for example energy radiates away when a stone dropped in the water in circular waves while sound energy radiates from speakers mouth to listeners ear and heat energy radiates from sun to earth.

Periodic Table Trends Quiz 1. The most reactive metals are located in the lower left hand corner of the periodic table 2. Which of the following atoms listed below has the largest atomic radius? Ca 3. Compared to the atomic radius of a rubidium atom‚ the atomic radius of a strontium atom is smaller. The smaller radius is primarily the result of the strontium atom having greater effective nuclear charge 4. An element is most likely to have properties similar to those of another

This experiment was very eye-opening as it allowed me to observe the struggles and patience that the farmer faces when growing these crops. The first few days of the experiment proved to be rather slow as very little growth could be observed. After the several days of being under the scorching sun the leaves of the tomato plants started to dry up and would fall off at the very touch of it. More water had to be added to them to further hydrate the plants. It was only after around 30 days that a concrete
