based on my research‚ wind energy is the result of the sun’s energy interacting with the earth’s surfaces. It is also an ideal renewable energy source that is infinitely sustainable; pollution free; doesn’t use fuel; and doesn’t produce greenhouse gases‚ toxic or radioactive waste. This type of energy is considered a green power technology because it has minor impacts on the environment. When using wind to generate electricity we use machines known as turbines and this turbines use blades that are

Experiment 4: Behavior of Gases Introduction: In this experiment‚ the problem trying to be solved is what gas laws are being used when the pressure‚ temperature‚ and volume are being measured. The three gas laws are Boyle’s Law‚ Charle’s Law‚ and Gay-Lussac’s Law. The Boyle’s Law is when volume and pressure are being compared. Pressure and volume are inversely proportional‚ because when pressure goes up‚ volume goes down. The Charle’s Law is when volume and temperature are compared. Volume and

Experiment 2 Behavior of Gases PURPOSE This experiment has two parts. The purpose of part A of the experiment is to determine the atomic mass of a metallic element whereas the purpose of part B of the experiment is to determine the rate of diffusion of both gases hydrogen chloride and ammonia by measuring the distances travelled by the two gases in the same time period. For part A the reaction of the metal with the aqueous acid is as follows: M(s) + n H3O+ -----> M+n(aq) + n/2 H2(g) +

Introduction: The presence of greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere last year reached its highest levels since pre-industrial times‚ a report released by the United Nations World Meteorological Organization (WMO) warns recently. Even if we managed to halt our greenhouse gas emissions today‚ and this is far from the case‚ they would continue to linger in the atmosphere for decades to come and so continue to affect the delicate balance of our living planet and our climate. The latest

Student: Mary Chrisin L. ObreroDate: October 7‚ 2014 Section: 116 Behavior of Gases and Determination of Absolute Zero Experiments 4&5 Introduction: First of all‚ the Boyle’s law (pressure-volume law) indicates that the volume of a certain amount of gas given held at a constant temperature differentiates inversely with the applied pressure when there are constant temperature and mass. Equations: PV=C. When pressure goes up‚ volume goes down (derived from the equation above): P1V1 = P2V2 =

The purpose of this experiment is to discover the physical and chemical properties of the studied gases. In discovering these properties it allows the student or observer the ability to identify these gases when they come into contact with them. Procedure Before I began the procedure I gathered all my supplies from the given list in the manual. From there I began the actual experiment and diluted the HCL placed in a test tube and then placed the ZN in the tube as well. I placed the stopper

What are Greenhouse Gases? These are the gases that make up our atmosphere: Carbon Dioxide 89% Methane 7% Nitrous Oxide 3% Halocarbons 1% What is the Greenhouse Effect? The Greenhouse Effect is the way that gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun. They let heat in‚ but prevent most of it from escaping. It is essential for life because we need a certain amount of radiation to heat up our atmosphere. What human activities produce Greenhouse Gases? By burning fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and

Poisonous gases changed the experiences of the people in the war for the worse. Breaking on impact‚ the canisters released yellowish green fumes that wafted slowly toward the French and African troops near the Belgian town of Ypres. As the fumes reached the Allied forces‚ soldiers realized the cloud was poisonous chlorine gas. Quoted in Dooly’s Great Weapons of World War I‚ one French doctor at Ypres expressed his horror: “I had the impression that was looking through green glasses. At the same time

In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar‚ by William Shakespeare‚ Brutus is the tragic hero for many reasons. Brutus’ character is noble‚ loyal‚ and honest. In the play Brutus is forced to make a difficult choice between killing Caesar‚ the ruler of Rome‚ to save Rome or to stay loyal to Caesar and let him live. Even when he stabs Caesar he is noble because he was doing it for the citizens of Rome. One of the reasons that Brutus is a tragic hero‚ is that he is very hesitant about killing Caesar. He has
