Thermodynamics of Borax C3C Justin Nevins Chemistry 200‚ Section M1A Introduction The purpose of the lab was to determine how the solubility of Borax (Na2B4(OH)4) and other thermodynamic quantities such as enthalpy‚ entropy‚ and Gibbs free energy depend on temperature. When Sodium borate octahydrate (Borax) dissociates in water it forms two sodium ions‚ one borate ion and eight water molecules. The chemical reaction is shown as: (reaction 1) A simple acid-base titration

article by Nancy Gibbs‚ refers to this as “helicopter parenting‚” and it applies to more than just bullies. Parents are not allowing their kids to play outside anymore or even walk to the store. Their logic is that there are bad people out there: murderers‚ kidnappers and child molesters. This makes a lot of sense especially if you watch the news on a regular basis.
