Location However‚ a sever earthquake that is located far from population centers does not cause the same damage as a less sever one that occurs in the middle of a city. As an example‚ in 1960‚ the strongest earthquake recorded‚ 9.5 magnitudes on the Richter scale‚ struck in the Pacific Ocean near the Chilean coastline‚ killing

calculate or predict the amount of reactants needed or product will be produced from a balanced equation with some known quantitative physical properties. Stoichiometry was first introduced to chemistry by Jeremias Benjamin Richter from Germany in the late 18th century. Richter carried out some of the earliest determinations of the quantities by weight of acid-base saturation and determined that it would take equivalent amount of different bases to saturate a particular acid of the same quantity.

While an earthquake the size of the Kobe quake in 1995; 7.3 on the Richter scale (The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica)‚ can be expected to cause wide spread damage‚ Japan did validate that building codes can be an effective mitigation tool. While upwards of 100‚000 wood manufactured older homes collapsed during the 20 second earthquake‚ a large majority of the newer construction buildings remained intact (Todi‚ Hataya‚ Abe‚ & Miyakoshi‚ 1995). Certainly‚ building codes implemented in Japan
