TECHNICAL INFORMATION SHEET 16 HOW CLAY BRICKS ARE MADE INTRODUCTION Clay bricks are used in a wide range of buildings from housing to factories‚ and in the construction of tunnels‚ waterways‚ bridges etc. Their properties vary according to the purpose for which they are intended‚ but clays have provided the basic material of construction for centuries. Brick is the oldest manufactured building material‚ and much of its history is lost in antiquity. The oldest burnt or fired bricks have been found

CHEMICAL BONDS Chemical Bonds I. Introduction Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms called a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are the covalent bonds and ionic bonds. Covalent bonds are bonds in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Covalent bonds

The first property of water is that it is an excellent solvent. This is because of the chemical composition and physical attributes of water. Since water is polar‚ it allows water molecules to become attracted to different molecules. The attraction can be so powerful that it can disrupt the attractive forces of the different molecules. For example‚ water can be heavily attracted to salt that it can disrupt the forces that hold sodium and chloride‚ therefore dissolving it. The second property of water

Forces on Physical Properties By Hannah Kloss Chemistry 112L- 01 --- Eric Boakye November 10‚ 2014 Physical properties are properties that can be measured and seen in an object. An example of a physical property of an object would be the color‚ mass‚ solubility‚ volume‚ or the polarity of an object. A physical property can change the appearance of an object‚ but that does not mean that the chemical composition has to change. The chemical composition can remain the same. Physical properties

Title : Properties of hydrocarbon Objective : 1) To study the properties of hydrocarbons. 2) To determine the unknown samples. Results : Part A : Combustion Compounds Observations Hexane There was orange flame and burned mildly during the burning process. No soots and smoke were produced. C6H14 + 19/2 O2 6CO2 + 7H2O Cyclohexene Orange flame burned vigorously. A small amount of black soot and smoke were produced during the burning process.

Chemical Periodicity Engr. Imelda Galera De La Salle University-Dasmariñas Dasmariñas‚ Cavite Philippines ABSTRACT Chemical periodicity was demonstrated using different samples of elements from Group IA‚ IIA and IVA. These samples are: Li2CO3‚ Na2CO3‚ K2CO3‚ MgCO3‚ CaCO3‚ BaCO3‚ Carbon‚ Tin‚ Silicon and Lead. Each sample was placed in a test tube‚ (one sample and one test tube) and the physical color‚ appearance and state was defined. Water was used to test the solubility of the element

Step 1 A. EasyBeds is a hotel chain operating in Europe and recently expanded into the Asian market. The last two years it operates a small- capacity hotel in Shanghai. The strategy of the business is to provide customers with int’l service standards but at a significantly low cost base. As a result‚ their competitors are 5* hotels‚ but the level of their prices are just above 2 to 3* hotels. To manage that they offer their clients only basic services. In addition‚ their client mix includes both

Properties of Substances- Gr.12 Chemistry Final Lab Report Lab: Properties of Substances M. Nguyen SCH4U April 27‚ 2012 Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to use a variety of tests to identity the type of bonds which are present in each solid. Various substances (paraffin wax‚ sucrose‚ sodium chloride‚ tin‚ and silicon dioxide) were experimented and identified with tests for hardness‚ solubility‚ conductivity‚ and the time for the solid to melt with a candle and Bunsen burner
