INTRODUCTION Sugar is one of the main food items consumed in Sri Lanka. The annual per capita consumption of sugar in Sri Lanka is around 30 kg and the total annual requirement of sugar in the country is around 550‚000t. But‚ only about 50‚000 t are produced locally. In a year only 38‚000 t were produced. The balance requirement has to be imported. The total annual expenditure on sugar imports is around Rs. 20 billion. Sugar cane (Saccharum officinarum) is the only crop cultivated in Sri Lanka

CHEMICAL ATTACK ON SYRIA Over 110‚000 people have died in Syria since the beginning of a years-long conflict in the country. On August the 21st‚ the U.S government says that 1‚429 died through the chemical attacks which marked the sea change in foreign policy towards the Middle Eastern country. The impact of poison gas is horrific and fatal. Those exposed to the nerve agent can die within 15 minutes of exposure. Mr. Obama’s absolutist position against it is backed up by international law and the

Materials & Methods: This aim of this experiment was to determine whether or not a chemical reaction occurred after the mixing of various chemicals. The evolution of a gas‚ the formation of precipitation‚ and the change of temperature or color are all indicative of a chemical reaction. It was assumed that a reaction did not take place if the mixture of chemicals exhibited none of these characteristics. Several precipitation‚ complex-ion formation‚ redox‚ and acid-base reactions were performed.

Chemical Bonding and Structure In his essay I will be discussing the scientific background and explanation of chemical bonding and structure‚ I will also be describing the method of injection molding and its benefits and limitations and how it is superior to the previous methods of making plastic. Finally I will also list the implication effect of plastic and its effect (economically and environmentally) A chemical bond is the result of a lure (attraction) between atoms or ions

I. Introduction There are two types of chemical reaction that occur one goes only in one direction and the other one is reversible. A reversible reaction is when a products starts to form the backward reaction starts where the products turns back to reactant molecules. When the rate of forward and backward reaction is already equal and the concentrations of the reactants and products no longer change with time we can say that chemical equilibrium is already achieved. A reaction is said to be at
