Chemical Weapons Chemical weapons use the toxic properties of chemical substances rather than their explosive properties to produce physical or physiological effects on an enemy. Although instances of what might be styled as chemical weapons date to antiquity‚ much of the lore of chemical weapons as viewed today has its origins in World War I. During that conflict "gas" (actually an aerosol or vapor) was used effectively on numerous occasions by both sides to alter the outcome of battles. A significant

INTRODUCTION TO CHEMICAL BONDS CHEMICAL BOND Definition: A chemical bond is defined as a force that acts between two or more atoms to hold them together as a stable molecule. Main types of bond: 1. Ionic or electrovalent bond‚ 2. Covalent bond‚ 3. Coordinate covalent bond Forth type of bond: Metallic bond: The type of bonding which holds the atoms together in metal crystal. Valence electron: The electrons in the outer most energy level in an atom that takes part in chemical bonding

Usually the power of the present societies is tripartite. The power is divided into an executive‚ a legislative and a judicative part. As though is it also in the science fiction film Equilibrium written and directed by Kurt Wimmer. After World War III only one civilised stronghold is left‚ the city-state Libria. The city-state contains the same structure of state as we know it today from totalitarian states. However the power of state is tripartite and Preston is part of the executive apparatus

A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. The bond is caused by the electromagnetic force attraction between opposite charges‚ either between electrons and nuclei‚ or as the result of a dipole attraction. The strength of chemical bonds varies considerably; there are "strong bonds" such as covalent or ionic bonds and "weak bonds" such as dipole-dipole interactions‚ the London dispersion force and hydrogen bonding

Three things are usually required for a chemical explosion: a chemical reaction that occurs very rapidly‚ a large increase in gas pressure‚ and a confined-reaction vessel in which the pressure of the gaseous products can increase to a point that the gases break violently out of the container. In this chemistry and physics science fair project‚ you will use the combustion of ethanol to provide energy for a small explosion. The chemical equation that describes the combustion of ethanol is shown below

Investigating travel and tourism industry There are 8 main components of travel and tourism industry. They are : 1- Accommodation- this is the most important component in the travel and tourism industry. Accommodation may include hotels‚ guest-houses‚ lodging-houses‚ bed and breakfast‚ inns and motels. 2- Transport- a good transportation system is very important for a travel and tourism industry‚ whether people are on business‚ travelling for leisure or visiting friends and

On Thursday‚ September‚ 28 in Ms. O’Brien’s Honors Science class we conducted two experiments the Mixed Substances Lab and the Investigating Mixtures Lab. The objective of the Investigating Mixtures Lab was “To observe that not all liquids behave the same way when mixed with other liquids”. Before we started the lab we we each created a hypothesis mine was “If the water and vegetable oil are mixed and the two combine and make a mixture‚ then the vegetable oil will float and the water will sink”.

* Chemical Formulas and Reactions . . . Midterm Objectives: * To balance chemical equations. * To interpret chemical reactions. * To understand equilibrium reactions and the factors that can affect them. * Molecular Mass / Formula Mass * Is the sum of the atomic masses of all the atoms present in one molecule of that compound. Example: the molecular mass of sodium bromide‚ NaBr‚ is 103‚ which represents the sum of the atomic mass of sodium (23) plus that of bromide (80)
