I know in my career paper I indicated a preference towards becoming a Foreign Service officer‚ particularly one involved in economic affairs‚ as it fits my major better. However‚ I’ve always held an interest in computer and software design and programming and my interests would also be served by becoming a software engineer. My goal is to find the career that suits me better than the other career and strive to achieve that career. Right now‚ I am still working on

Major: Environmental Engineering We humans have a long history of polluting our air‚ water‚ and soil. This contamination not only hurts nature‚ but is dangerous to people. Luckily‚ environmental engineers are on the job. They use math and science to clean up the messes we’ve made and prevent new ones from happening. For example‚ they might figure out how to clean up toxic material that has seeped into the ground at an old gas station or design an effective way to treat wastewater. If you choose

era of computers‚ which brought about remarkable technological advancements to society and these have also contributed to the current genetic revolution‚ which promises to do for life what computers did for information. This increasing power and accessibility may one day give parents the option of genetically engineering the "designer baby". This may be used to spare the unborn from disease or‚ possibly‚ make them tall‚ intelligent and blessed with any desirable traits. Genetic engineering has given

Argon (Ar) is a noble gas found in Group 0 on the periodic table. It gets its name because of its chemical inertness and comes from the Greek root ‘Argo‚’ which means lazy. This is because Argon doesn’t react well with other elements. The atomic number of Argon is 18 making it a member of the helium group of elements which are also called noble‚ or inert‚ gasses and are non reactive. Its electronic configuration is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 The outermost shell‚ shell number three‚ has a completely

Combustion of Acetylene (ethyne) Rx: Back Why I don’t do acetlyene explosions in our lab.... Combustion of alkanes A quick review.... • Combustion reactions of alkanes consist only of C and H (hydrocarbon) • require O2(g) as a reactant • produce CO2(g) and H2O(g) and a large amount of energy!! Oxygen can be the limiting reagent which can lead to Incomplete combustion. For complete combustion of a hydrocarbon‚ oxygen must be in excess. If there isn’t sufficient oxygen‚ incomplete combustion occurs
