Although many people go through extreme hardship during war‚ they can find things to love that gives them the endurance to pull through. The novel Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys‚ details the story of a group of refugees that are desperately trying to escape the encroaching Russian army who are brutally pillaging‚ raping‚ and massacring everything in their path‚ by getting to the ship the Wilhelm Gustloff. The Wilhelm Gustloff is attacked by a Russian submarine and sinks and only four out of the

______________________ Evaluation of the Gas Law Constant Objectives In this experiment‚ we will determine the Ideal Gas Constant‚ R‚ which relates the number of moles of gas present to its volume‚ pressure and absolute temperature. Background To see how "R" was derived‚ we must look at the proportionalities defined by the other fundamental gas laws. For example‚ Charles’ Law showed us that the volume of a gas sample is proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure. Thus V ∝ T abs . In addition

soil property. These two tests are the falling head permeability test and the constant head permeability test. Which test is used depends upon the type of soil to be tested. For soils of high permeability (sands and gravels) a constant head test is used. For soils of intermediate to low permeability‚ a falling head test is used. As we were testing sand we used a constant head permeability test. By carrying out the constant head permeability test we can determine the coefficients of permeability of

questions on the effects of salt on grass growth. In the winter‚ many people place a salt compound on their driveways to melt snow and ice that has accumulated. The following spring‚ it is noticed that the edges of the driveway does not have any grass growing and grass a little further from the driveway is growing slower than the rest of the lawn. It will be determined if grass growth is negatively impacted in the spring after a winter of salt compound applications. Salt and Grass Growth Introduction:

The Great Salt Lake The Great Salt Lake is a wonder of its own. Made by the remnants of Lake Bonneville‚ this lake is unique to Utah and has many different characteristics that make it this way. Have you ever wondered how big the Great Salt Lake really is? It is one of the largest lakes in America. The Great Salt Lake is about seventy-five miles long and twenty-five miles wide. Even though the deepest spot in the lake is thirty-four feet the average depth of the Great Salt Lake is around 13 feet

Katie Paez Marine Science Salt Marsh Essay Salt marshes play vital roles in coastal areas‚ such as Westhampton‚ Southampton‚ Hampton Bays‚ and many other locations. Let’s look at the global effects of salt marshes. A study from September of this year published in UVAToday shows that the carbon stored in salt marshes may help in slowing global climate change. Carbon dioxide is the predominant so-called “greenhouse gas” that acts as sort of an atmospheric blanket‚ trapping the Earth’s heat. Over

People have been using salt since 6050 bc.We have used it for seasoning‚ preservation‚ and in the last century for lowering the freezing point of water(History of Salt). In pure water 0 degrees celsius is the normal freezing point of water. Ice will melt just as fast the water will freeze. You won’t see the melting and freezing processes as long as they are balanced and equal. Adding salt or any foreign substance to the water upsets the fragile equality between freezing and melting.
