Chemistry 217 Dr.Rudolf Rednose Tues/8am/S-473 Determining the Percent Oxygen in the Air INTRODUCTION: Recent tragedies in coal mines have exemplified the importance for us humans to breathe an adequate amount of oxygen if we are to survive. But what amount of oxygen is adequate? How can we know the amount of oxygen present in what we consider fresh air? The purpose of this experiment was to determine the percent oxygen typically present in air. The conclusion of the test suggested that

follow leaders you might be doing so blindly which is a bad thing. The novel Divergent by Veronica Roth is about a girl named Tris who found she was divergent and has to hide it from everyone else. The novel The Compound by S.A. Bodeen is about a boy named Eli who had to evacuate to a compound during a nuclear war and has been there ever since. Both of these stories use dystopian control and mood to suggest the theme that we should not just follow leaders blindly without knowing what is actually going

Title: 03.09 Molar Mass of Compounds: Determining the Formula of a Hydrate Purpose: To determine the formula of a hydrate. Materials: * crucible * Bunsen burner * balance * CuSO4 hydrate Procedure: 1. Measure the mass of the clean‚ empty crucible‚ record the mass. 2. Add one or two scoops of the hydrate to the crucible‚ record the mass. 3. Heat the crucible and hydrate above a Bunsen burner for at least ten minutes to make sure that all of the water evaporates

Here’s a good example from engineering. An aerospace engineer might want to graph the lift of a wing versus the size of the wing‚ and he wants to show everything from an insect wing all the way up to a jumbo jet. A fly’s wing is maybe 0.1 inch long‚ and a jumbo jet wing might be 1000 inches long (about 80 ft). It would be pretty tough to put more than one insect on that graph - if you scale the wing length axis to fit on a sheet of paper‚ all the points for insect wings would be jammed up against

Edgar Allan Poe’s The Philosophy of Composition was written in 1846‚ and according to my perception of what he writes‚ it was first of its kind. None before him had dared to reveal their creative process‚ as difficult and complex as it is‚ and for this they received particular criticism from Poe himself. It seems to me‚ that although he respects that other writers consider the creative process a secret or merely a sled of unexpected mind twists and mysterious thought processes‚ he himself wanted
