Alberta Oil Sands because of how it affects people’s health‚ there is a limited supply of it‚ and how it affects the environment. Firstly‚ the health of those who live around the Oil Sands is negatively affected. A study made by the Alberta Cancer Board in 2009 showed that people who lived about 250 kilometers away from a tar sands development were experiencing higher than normal rates of cancer (ForestEthics). This study indicates that there is a correlation between one’s health and the Oil Sands; the

“From Sand Creek” by Simon J. Ortiz is a long poem showing how he dealt with the history of his people and recognizing all the struggles they went through‚ throughout the United States History. Simon Ortiz referenced some historical figures throughout the poem that he drew some inspiration from. This is their back round and how it all lead to Sand Creek. “This American has been a burden of steel and mad death‚ but‚ look now there are flowers and new grass and a spring wind rising from sand creek

Organic Chemistry: CHP 225 Thomas Hsieh Experiment 2: Boiling Points o Date experiment was performed: September 16‚ 2011 o Objective: To determine the boiling point of organic compounds such as tert-butyl alcohol‚ sec-butyl alcohol‚ n-butyl alcohol‚ and an unknown. o Principle: Boiling point is the temperature at which gas and liquid phases coexist in equilibrium. At this temperature‚ the vaporization rate and the condensation rate are equal. The liquid and vapor reach a state of dynamic

DOE - Design of Experiment DOE is an approach used to identify factors/steps that are contributing most to an observed variation in product specifications. The classical DOE focuses on identifying the factors that affect the level of a product/process response‚ examining the response and forming the mathematical prediction model. The modern DOE‚ introduced by Genichi Taguchi in early 1980s‚ applies in both product and process development to identify the factors that affect the variability of the

In the eye opening documentary‚ The Human Experiment‚ directed by Don Hardy and Dana Nachman‚ the many health dangers of thousands of harmful chemicals in everyday products are exposed. The film explores the lives of people who have been affected by the ubiquitous chemicals found in our food and our homes. The film addresses the battle against powerful industries that are determined to keep consumers in the dark about the dangers of many of their products. The fight against dangerously lethal chemicals

Objective 1. To demonstrate the relationship between the pressure and temperature of saturated steam in equilibrium with water. 2. To determine the vapour pressure curve. Introduction Properties of a fluid can change when heat and work are applied to it. There’s an interchange between the fluid and its surroundings when heat and work are applied according to the study of thermodynamics. Substances such as gases and vapors are often referred as P-V-T substances. Theory: An ideal gas
