Mrs. Flowers was a very important reference in the life of the narrator Maya Angelou. She was portrayed by Maya as being a person who was kind‚ respectful‚ highly educated and a source of inspiration. She was a well to do‚ elegant and highly sofisticated person who had the ability to touch the lives of people that belonged to her community. I dare say that Mrs. Flowers was one of the main people responsible for allowing Maya to flourish and reach higher ground. Mrs. Flowers had an unimaginable power

Reaction Paper A person’s life can tell us so many stories about the world we are living in and how it can affect and change people. The Dolzura Cortez life story that had been put into movie tells us so many stories and realities that are currently happening nowadays. In the movie it shows us how the life of Dolzura started; a wife and a mother to her three kids. But like some of the family in the Philippine setting today‚ she also is receiving violence from her husband. And that is because

RATE OF REACTIONS. The reaction rate (rate of reaction) or speed of reaction for a reactant or product in a particular reaction is intuitively defined as how fast or slow a reaction takes place. For example‚ the oxidative rusting of iron under the atmosphere is a slow reaction that can take many years‚ but the combustion of cellulose in a fire is a reaction that takes place in fractions of a second (right). Chemical kinetics is the part of physical chemistry that studies reaction rates. The concepts

Does Charlie really deserve to die? Charlie just wanted to become smart and live longer; but the Doctors didn’t tell Charlie that the intelligence would be temporary. In the story‚ Flowers for Algernon‚ I strongly feel that the Doctors did not follow their ethics of fieldwork and made a bad choice by choosing Charlie Gordon as their test subject for the intelligence surgery. If Charlie didn’t take the surgery‚ he could have lived longer with an IQ of 68‚ but instead dies. Charlie made a contribution

Abstract This experiment is to study the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction between potassium permanganate with oxalic acid. We used 2cm3 of 0.02M potassium permanganate and 4cm3 of 1M sulphuric acid into a test tube. In another test tube‚ we placed 2cm3 of oxalic acid. We placed the test tubes in a water bath at 40‚ 45‚ 50‚ 55 and 60oC respectively. When the solutions have attained these temperatures pour the oxalic acid into the acidified permanganate solution and recorded the time

Lab #4: Aqueous Reactions Introduction: In this experiment we studied the two different types of aqueous chemical reactions‚ double replacement and single replacement. In a double replacement reaction one or both of the products is an insoluble ionic compound or otherwise known as a precipitate; or a non-electrolyte; or a gas. In a single replacement reaction there is typically a metal and an ionic compound consisting of a metal cation and a non-meatl anion. Singel replacement ractions occur when

We start noticing we are miles and miles away from help; we realize we are alone. We cannot see beyond the situation we are currently experiencing. We are blind by the sea storm and it seems like there is no sign of hope anywhere. But just as we fall into despair‚ a luminous light squeezes from

Daniel Keyes’s fictional story‚ "Flowers for Algernon"‚ drew on themes‚ patterns of events‚ and character types from the Biblical story of the Garden of Eden. Both stories had a mutual theme: Ignorance is bliss. Both stories also shared a similar pattern of events. Charlie Gordon‚ the protagonist in "Flowers for Algernon"‚ and Adam and Eve‚ the main characters in the Garden of Eden‚ all started out in a state of innocence‚ unaware of evil‚ until they were encouraged to become smarter. After they
