Chemical Engineering department for guiding me through the seminar preparation and the University for providing me the platform to present this seminar. Abstract Carbon nanotubes are allotropes of carbon. They are one-atom thicksheet of graphite rolled up into a seamless cylinder with diameter of the order of a nanometer. Their name is derived from their size‚ since the diameter of a nanotube is on the order of a few nanometers (approximately 50‚000 times smaller than the width of a human

Chemistry 101 Chapter 6 THERMOCHEMISTRY · Thermochemistry is the study of the quantity of heat energy released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. Example: the burning of fuel: is a heatevolving reaction · Heat : · Energy: is a form of energy the potential to do work (to move matter) exists in many different forms: Electrical energy Kinetic Energy (energy of motion) Light energy Heat energy Chemical energy (energy of substances) · Different forms of energy can be interconverted

one had thought about putting these two things together. Lipman had only put two things together. Lipman had created the eraser topped pencil in Philadelphia‚ Pennsylvania. At first pencils were filled with lead‚ but now pencils are filled with graphite. Lead is poisonous and can make a person sick. Also‚ the best wood to use for pencils is incense-cedar usually found in California. That was discovered in the nineteen hundereds. Rubber from the eraser on pencils is nonnatural because natural rubber

Chemistry Notes: Metals: • A metal consists of a lattice of positive ions surrounded by a ‘sea’ of mobile delocalised valence electrons. • Metallic bonding is the electrostatic attraction between the delocalised electrons and the positive ions in the metallic lattice. Properties of metals: Property Explanation Relatively high density The particles are very close together. This is because of high electrostatic forces between the sea of valence electrons and the positively charged nucleus.
