How much can we know by simply reading the nutrition facts on the back of any packaged foods? Certain nutrition facts are given and in most cases the most important or common‚ such as the amount of sodium‚ amount of protein‚ the total fat‚ and the amount of calories among others. But what guarantees that these nutrition facts given are correct or accurate? It is known that not everything on the nutrition labels may be true. Little do people know that not everything on the nutrition facts is accurate

Period 2. 03/05/17 Introduction: To have a successful germination‚ the plant seed needs a sufficient amount of water and oxygen present. Other conditions include room temperature‚ and the amount of light intake. Hydration of a seed‚ is an essential step for seed germination (Martínez-Andújar‚ 2014). Plants tend to germinate better in

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Exponential Equations (variable in exponent position) 1. Isolate the exponential portion ( base exp onent ): Move all non-exponential factors or terms to the other side of the equation. 2. Take ln or log of each side of the equation. • Make sure to use ln if the base is “e”. Then remember that ln e = 1 . • Make sure to use log if the base is 10. • If the base is neither “e” nor “10”‚ use either ln or log‚ your choice.. 3. Bring the power (exponent)

Weak Acid Titration Abstract: Our method for determining the unknown weak acid was to determine the equilibrium constant K from the molecular weight of the weak acid from our titration data. In this lab the acid Potassium hydrogen phthalate and two unknown acids were titrated. We determined the molar mass of the Potassium hydrogen phthalate‚ for the unknown acids we calculated the molar mass and the Ka values. We used NaOH as the known base for titrating in all three of the titrations. Our

mathematics at a deeper level. Review of homogeneous equations The homogeneous constant coefficient linear equation an y (n) +· · ·+a1 y +a0 y = 0 has the characteristic polynomial an rn +· · ·+a1 r+a0 = 0. From the roots r1 ‚ . . . ‚ rn of the polynomial we can construct the solutions y1 ‚ . . . ‚ yn ‚ such as y1 = er1 x . We can also rewrite the equation in a weird-looking but useful way‚ using the symbol d D = dx . Examples: equation: y − 5y + 6y = 0. polynomial: r2 − 5r + 6 = 0. (factored):

of -1. Straight Lines: Equation of a straight line is y = mx + c‚ where m = gradient‚ c = y-intercept. The equation of a line‚ if we know one point and the gradient is found using: (y - y1) = m(x - x1) (If given two points‚ find the gradient first‚ and then use the formula.) Two lines meet at the solution to their simultaneous equations. Note: When a line meets a curve there will be 0‚ 1‚ or two solutions. 1. Use substitution to solve the simultaneous equations 2. Rearrange them to form a quadratic equation

Why It Couldn’t Be The short story Cold Equations by Tom Godwin takes place on a ship called EDS. The space cruiser is piloted by a man named Barton. He has an order of killing the stowaway who snuck onto the ship because the weight on the EDS is too much for the ship to handle. In the process of hunting down the stowaway‚ he realizes it was a young innocent girl named Marilyn. Once Barton understands what kind of person Marilyn is‚ he doesn’t kill her immediately because he knows her reasons were

The Hamiltonian operator in the energy equation‚ containing the electron correlation is more complicated and cannot be solved. The electron correlation is the interaction of electrons with other electrons. There are several model chemistry examples used to approximate including‚ molecular mechanics‚ ab-inito‚ configuration interaction‚ semi-empirical‚
