Chemical Castration LaDarius D. Abraham Southern University A&M College Sex offenders have been a serious problem for our legal system at all levels‚ not to mention those who have been their victims. Sadly‚ many of those assaults are perpetrated by people who have already been through the correctional system only to victimize again. Sex offenders‚ as a class of criminals‚ are nine times more likely to repeat their crimes (Oakes 99). This presents a problem for the public‚ as potential victims

energy is being released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. My lab partner and I had to determine the heat exchanged when solid magnesium hydroxide is mixed with solid citric acid‚ using a coffee cup calorimeter. Given that citric acid is soluble in water is the property that makes this reaction possible. The first law of thermodynamics and Hess’s law are also present within this experiment. Knowing the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions is also relevant. If the temperature goes

Reaction on Reaction Paper The first thing that came to my mind when I have heard about Reaction paper is “What exactly is it?” and before I get an understanding of that‚ I resisted that change. But later‚ when I have studied about it and understood its purpose‚ I have started thinking “Why people avoid change at the first look without an analysis?” The general human tendency is to live in a comfortable zone in which he has lived for quite some time. He draws a circle‚ thinks that circle is his

this problem. Firstly the causes of this problem is the attitude of human. The human attitude nowadays really disappointing. They do not have the love feeling to the nature and throw garbage or any chemical substances anywhere including the river‚ the sea and any water sources. So this chemical substance will harm the water and we as the user will use the water without notice that we use the contaminated water. Slowly or in the long term our body will be affected. Besides that. the excessive used

Chemical Bonding Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms ... a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent bond: bond in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Ionic bond: bond in which one or more electrons from one atom are removed and attached to

Factors Affecting Reactions I. Factors Affecting Reactions [545] • Every chemical proceeds at its own rate. • By changing the conditions of the reaction‚ the rate of almost any reaction can be modified. • The rate of a chemical reaction depends upon: o Temperature o Concentration o Particle Size[SA] o Catalyst A. Temperature [545] • Increasing the temperature causes molecules to move faster‚ so there’s an increased chance of them colliding

also cause a concern when it comes to consumers. Those hard-to-pronounce chemicals that are in the list of ingredients on the label are used for more than just flavoring‚ appearance‚ and preserving the food (Food Additives). Those additives are used in some other very harsh items such as bug repellent (Food Additives). However‚ there are some simple and sustainable options that can help consumers avoid running into harsh chemicals and additives that may be lurking in their food. These changes will not

Chemicals in medicines Rakesh Mohan Hallen The words medicine’ and ’drug’ are often used in our country to mean the same substances: any substance‚ manufactured artificially‚ which can help recovery from sickness‚ relieve symptoms or modify a natural process in the body. A medicine is often a mixture of several chemical compounds. Even if it has only one active component compound often other substances are used as fillers or binders to give it bulk.
