temperature; this chemical element is abbreviated as He. Helium has two protons in its nucleus whereas the atomic number of helium is 2 and is listed in group VIII of the periodic table. As a noble gas helium is almost chemically inert‚ unreactive. After hydrogen‚ helium is the most abundant element in the universe. During an eclipse in 1868‚ French astronomer Pierre Janssen discovered helium. After Helium was proven to be an element it was named by a British chemist Sir Edward Frankland and British astronomer

Hydrogen Automobiles The effect of pollution that is emitted from vehicles is a serious concern in today ’s society. The cause of this pollution is the toxic emissions from current vehicles. This toxic emissions or pollution destroys the Earth ’s ozone layer or atmospheric gases Acknowledging these facts‚ many are very concerned with the condition of the Earth ’s atmospheric gases in the future. In just a very short time‚ scientists produced a new vehicle which only emits water out of its exhaust

<b>Thesis Statement</b><br>The hydrogen bomb is a nuclear weapon in which light atomic nuclei of hydrogen are joined together in an uncontrolled nuclear fusion reaction to release tremendous amounts of energy. The hydrogen bomb is about a thousand times as powerful as the atomic bomb‚ which produces a nuclear fission explosion about a million times more powerful than comparably sized bombs using conventional high explosives such as TNT.<br><br><b>The Hydrogen Bomb</b><br>The Atomic Bomb Was A Essential

A plot of against gives a straight line. Example 4 The Arrhenius parameters which define the Arrhenius equation for the decomposition of cyclobutane are In (A/s-1) = 15.6 and Ea = 261 kJ mol-1. Determine the half-life of cyclobutane at the temperature of 773 K. C4H8 (g) 2 C2H4 (g) The decomposition of cyclobutane follows first order kinetics as the unit of A is s-1. Comment: The units for A provide information on the reaction’s overall order of kinetics

Hydrogen and the Noble Gases Hydrogen is the chemical element with atomic number 1. It is represented by the symbol “H”. It is an odorless‚ nonmetallic‚ tasteless and highly explosive gas. Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant chemical element in the universe. It forms 1- ions when combined with metals‚ and 1+ ion when combined with non-metals to form acids. Hydrogen is “the fuel of life”; without it to combine with oxygen we would not have water. Water is made of two parts hydrogen

Grass Decomposition Lab Problem: How do temperature‚ sunlight‚ amount of moisture‚ and presence of oxygen affect the decomposition of grass? Controlled Variable: Amount of grass and water in each container. Independent Variable: temperature‚ sunlight‚ amount of moisture‚ presence of oxygen. Dependent Variable: decomposition rate of grass. Hypothesis: I believe that there will be the most decomposition in high temperatures‚ low sunlight‚ low amount of moisture‚ and high presense

The Decomposition of Baking Soda Purpose: - To determine the correct balanced equation for the decomposition of baking soda using % yield. PreLab Notes: Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) decomposes when heated yielding both gaseous products and solid products. The production of gas makes baking soda a leavening agent in baked goods. The trapped bubbles of gas give muffins and cakes a lighter‚ airier texture. When heated‚ baking soda decomposes in one of the following unbalanced equations.

is collapses and the solid is converted into liquid. The trend in structure is from the metallic oxides containing giant structures of ions on the left of the period via a giant covalent oxide in the middle to molecular oxides on the right. Sodium peroxide‚ magnesium oxide and aluminum oxide are metallic oxide which have high melting and boiling point compared to other period 3 oxide. This is due to their giant ionic structure and the strong ionic bond. Strong ionic bond in the molecule need more energy
