During this analysis paper‚ I will be providing the following: a presentation of the experiment‚ the method of “The Ship of Theseus”‚ possible reactions to the thought experiment‚ and support for my argument of the experiment. The ship was used to celebrate the returning of Theseus and the young men from Crete after Theseus slayed the Minotaur. As a tradition‚ the Athenians continually sailed the ship‚ but after time‚ “They took away the old

The Undeniable suffering of farm animals The view of the treatment of animals in our society is certainly impaired. We are behind a veil of ignorance because we have no idea what is truly going on in farms and labs. At such a young age we are inclined to eat meat by our parents‚ so as we grow up eating meat becomes a habit for us and we don’t stop to realize about how and where the meat came from. The media rarely portrays the brutality and cruelty of animals‚ so there really is no way for people

Introduction The melting point is defined as the temperature at which the solid is in equilibrium with its liquid‚ and this characteristic is very unique‚ so a substance can be determined by the melting point. Determination of the melting point is very important technique in many areas of chemistry especially‚ in organic chemistry area because the melting point is really significant in order to identify the purity and the identity of a substance. Measuring the melting point is a fast and cost-effective

Introduction The purpose of the experiment was to determine the melting points of compounds using a Mel-Temp device. The melting point of naphthalene‚ urea‚ and sulfanilamide are found. This is then followed by the measuring of an unknown compound‚ and an impure sample (a small amount of naphthalene mixed with the unknown). Experiment In the lab‚ the height of the chemical in the capillary was set to 2-3 mm thickness. The voltage at the Mel-Temp started at a low setting of 1.5-2. The heat was
