[pic] THE IMPACT OF SCIENCE IN HUMAN LIFE The word science comes from the Latin word “scientia” which means “knowledge”. [pic] It is a broad field of human knowledge concentrated with facts which are logically explained by rules‚ regulations and principals. The word science always lives with us. The people who study science are known as “scientists”. They perform chemical reaction and invent different objects which help us to make our life easier

Carbon steel is steel in which the main interstitial alloying constituent is carbon in the range of 0.12–2.0%. The American Iron and Steel Institute(AISI) defines carbon steel as the following: "Steel is considered to be carbon steel when no minimum content is specified or required for chromium‚cobalt‚ molybdenum‚ nickel‚ niobium‚ titanium‚ tungsten‚ vanadium or zirconium‚ or any other element to be added to obtain a desired alloying effect; when the specified minimum for copper does not exceed 0

important‚ this being carbon. There are many interesting things about carbon including‚ facts about it‚ its history‚ and what it is used for. Carbon is a very important element‚ in fact‚ life could not exist without it. Carbon (C on the periodic table) is a chemical element and is the sixth most abundant element in the world. Carbon is the 6th element on the periodic table in group 14‚ period 6‚ it has six protons‚ six electrons‚ and six neutrons‚ with an atomic mass of 12.01u. Carbon has a boiling point

Introduction Every human in the world has a significant impact on the water cycle‚ as well me. Every day I use resources and have a major impact in into this cycle. We often use resources without thinking much about it. It is simply normal to us‚ that’s enough of these resources are available for the people. Water is just always available for us. In every day that I take a shower‚ take a bath‚ cook with water or just go swimming in a sea I have an important influence on our water cycle. Water which I

"A carbon fiber is a long‚ thin strand of material about 0.005-0.010 mm in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. The carbon atoms are bonded together in microscopic crystals that are more or less aligned parallel to the long axis of the fiber. The crystal alignment makes the fiber incredibly strong for its size. Several thousand carbon fibers are twisted together to form a yarn‚ which may be used by itself or woven into a fabric. The yarn or fabric is combined with epoxy and wound or molded

Activated Carbon Activated Carbon is the best general use adsorbent to remove/reduce a lot of organic and some inorganic contaminants found in different liquid and gas products. Activated carbon has the unique ability to adsorb a wide range of compounds from both the liquid and gas phase. This adsorptive feature is responsible for removing contaminants from water and other substances where the adsorbent material is added. Activated Carbon features a highly crystalline form with a wide surface

Carbon Dioxide from Cars U.S. states are beginning to attack another major source of global warming pollution besides power plants: your car. David Biello reports Cars in California offer a new kind of sticker shock this year: carbon. In addition to the familiar smog ratings‚ labels on new Cali cars rank them 1 to 10 based on greenhouse gas emissions. The best‚ a perfect 10‚ will emit less than 200 grams of greenhouse gases per mile. The bad ones more than 520. Vermont will also begin offering
