Final Project: Brazil Jerry Rhodes HTT 200 May 16‚ 2010 Tom Jensen Final Project: Brazil I always have wanted to travel to South America. I am drawn to the culture‚ the cuisine‚ and the natural beauty of the region. Brazil is especially appealing to me. I would love to attend Carnival and see the Amazon one-day. The beaches and nightlife of Rio de Janeiro are definitely on my travel wish list. I have taken short trips to Canada and border towns in Mexico‚ but never actually had an opportunity

Chemical Periodicity Engr. Imelda Galera De La Salle University-Dasmariñas Dasmariñas‚ Cavite Philippines ABSTRACT Chemical periodicity was demonstrated using different samples of elements from Group IA‚ IIA and IVA. These samples are: Li2CO3‚ Na2CO3‚ K2CO3‚ MgCO3‚ CaCO3‚ BaCO3‚ Carbon‚ Tin‚ Silicon and Lead. Each sample was placed in a test tube‚ (one sample and one test tube) and the physical color‚ appearance and state was defined. Water was used to test the solubility of the element

an object. An example of a physical property of an object would be the color‚ mass‚ solubility‚ volume‚ or the polarity of an object. A physical property can change the appearance of an object‚ but that does not mean that the chemical composition has to change. The chemical composition can remain the same. Physical properties are separated into two different categories. They are separated in to intrinsic properties and extrinsic properties. Extrinsic properties rely on the amount of material

Chapter 1 Chemical Reactions and Equations Q.1. Why should magnesium ribbon be cleaned before burning in air ? Ans: Magnesium ribbon is a very reactive metal. When stored it reacts with oxygen to form a layer of magnesium oxide on its surface. This layer of magnesium oxide being a stable compound prevents further reaction of magnesium with oxygen. The magnesium is cleaned before burning in air to remove this layer so that the metal can be exposed to air properly. Q.2. Write the balanced

INTRODUCTION 1.1. Nickel Nickel is a chemical element with atomic number 28. It is denoted by the symbol ‘Ni’ and is one of the main constituent of meteorites. It was discovered in 1751‚ by Axel Fredrik in Sweden. It belongs to the transition metal group and is known for its hardness and ductility. Significant chemical reactivity is exhibited by pure Nickel. Nickel in its pure or low-alloy form is used in several fields as it is highly resistant to various reducing chemicals. Nickel when annealed exhibits

Harmful Chemicals in our Environment Over the past century humans have introduced a large number of chemical substances into the environment. Some are the waste from industrial and agricultural processes. Some have been designed as structural materials and others have been designed to perform various functions such as healing the sick or killing pests and weeds. Obviously some chemicals are useful but many are toxic and their harm to the environment and our health far outweighs their benefit to

Chemical Bonds Chemical Bond: is the force that holds atoms together in a compound. They form because they lower the potential energy of the charged particles that compose atoms. Chemical bonds can be broadly classified into two types: Ionic and Covalent. Ionic: metal & nonmetal Metals have a tendency to lose electrons and nonmetals have a tendency to gain them. The metal atom becomes a cation and a nonmetal becomes an anion. The oppositely charged ions attract one another and form an ionic

2 Chemical warfare What is Chemical Warfare: To understand chemical warfare you must first understand what a chemical agent is. A United Nations report from 1969 defines chemical warfare agents as " ... chemical substances‚ whether gaseous‚ liquid or solid‚ which might be employed because of their direct toxic effects on man‚ animals and plants ... ". This means basically that any chemical that is used to directly effect and harm a person‚ plant‚ or animal would be an act of chemical warfare
