up a glass with water and put a straw in it. The reason this experiment relates to the idea of rationalism is because when you look at the straw after placing it in the cup‚ it looks like that the straw is broken or cracked because of the light refraction‚ but you understand that it is not broken or cracked. Mill/Bentham Chapter Questions Mill’s theory of higher pleasures states that when it comes down to pleasures and satisfaction‚ people tend to set these empirical grounds for these

Introduction Isaac newton—English astronomer‚ physicist‚ mathematician‚ and scientist—became interested in science as a boy and even invented several devises while he was still young. He attended Cambridge University and later taught there. In Optics‚ newton published his principles of light and colour‚ and in his mathematical principles of natural philosophy (also known as the principia)‚ he discussed the laws of motion and the theory of gravity. Besides his scientific study‚ he spent much time

Introduction Background Indicators are used in acid-base titrations to determine end points as both acid and base are colourless in nature. However‚ indicators chosen must be suitable according to the type of reactions such as: - Strong acid-weak base titration - Weak acid-strong base titration - Strong acid-strong base titration - Weak acid-weak base titration Only the first two mentioned above will be investigated in this experiment. Aims/Objectives 1. To understand
