bombs and hydrogen bombs. The hydrogen bomb is the most powerful‚ destructive bomb of all. In this essay I’m going to give a brief history of the hydrogen bomb‚ the chemistry behind the bomb‚ and how much destruction the hydrogen bomb can do. After the Soviet Union’s atomic bomb success during the cold war‚ the U.S wanted something bigger and stronger. In 1950‚ President Harry S. Truman announced work on the hydrogen bomb. A group of scientists led by Edward Teller created the first hydrogen bomb in

<b>Thesis Statement</b><br>The hydrogen bomb is a nuclear weapon in which light atomic nuclei of hydrogen are joined together in an uncontrolled nuclear fusion reaction to release tremendous amounts of energy. The hydrogen bomb is about a thousand times as powerful as the atomic bomb‚ which produces a nuclear fission explosion about a million times more powerful than comparably sized bombs using conventional high explosives such as TNT.<br><br><b>The Hydrogen Bomb</b><br>The Atomic Bomb Was A Essential

temperature; this chemical element is abbreviated as He. Helium has two protons in its nucleus whereas the atomic number of helium is 2 and is listed in group VIII of the periodic table. As a noble gas helium is almost chemically inert‚ unreactive. After hydrogen‚ helium is the most abundant element in the universe. During an eclipse in 1868‚ French astronomer Pierre Janssen discovered helium. After Helium was proven to be an element it was named by a British chemist Sir Edward Frankland and British astronomer

Discuss the Role of Hydrogen Bonding in living Organisms A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular bond and is formed when a charged part of a molecule having polar covalent bonds‚ forms an electrostatic attraction with a molecule of opposite charge‚ generally with fluorine‚ oxygen and nitrogen. Molecules having non polar covalent bonds do not form hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds are classified as weak bonds as they are easily and rapidly formed and broken‚ however the cumulative effects of large

between molecules‚ geometric isomerism‚ purity for melting point determination; and intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules and branching for the boiling point determination. From the structure‚ intermolecular forces can be observed (hydrogen bonding‚ dipole-dipole interaction‚ or London dispersion forces)*. Along with these forces‚ geometric isomerism affects also. In terms of purity‚ a pure compound has higher melting point than compound with impurities. Branching‚ also a factor‚ makes

difference in electronegativity between hydrogen and oxygen. Polar nature and geometry of water molecules allow them to form hydrogen bonds with each other and with dissolved hydrophilic substances. 2. What do the terms hydrophilic‚ hydrophobic‚ and amphiphilic mean and what do molecules described by theses terms possess? Hydrophilic—water loving‚ able to form hydrogen bonds‚ Hydrophobic—water hating‚ lack functional groups that allows the formation of hydrogen bonds‚ associate w/each other through

Shrinkage is the contraction in the dimension of the fabric due to usage. These are the reasons for shrinkage: • In case of a fabric‚ the warp yarns are under much strain due to interlacement than the weft yarns. Hence when a fabric is allowed to shrink‚ the warp yarn shrinkage will be more than weft yarns. • To overcome this fabric is extended in widthwise to some extent in the stenter machine during the finishing process. Then it is subjected to the preshrink process. Various mechanical
