Thomas Newberg Chemical Weapons Convention Historically chemical weapons are rarely seen in combat but when they are they are used to great effect‚ killing thousands and injuring many more. Chemical weapons were first used in combat in May 1915 when the Germans released chlorine gas against the French in the Battle of Ypres. Over the course of WWI new chemical agents were developed including cyanide‚ phosgene and mustard gas. The Geneva Protocol of 1925 condemned chemical weapons but states that

CHM1022 Tutorial 2 – Semester 2‚ 2012 (Chemical Equilibria) 1. The reaction 2 HCl(g) +I2(s) [pic] 2 HI (g) + Cl2(g) has Kc = 1.0 x 10-34 at 25˚C. If a 1.00 L reaction vessel initially contains 0.100 mol of each HCl and solid I2‚ what are the concentrations of HI and Cl2 at equilibrium? 2. Consider the following gas-phase reaction and equilibrium constant at 25 oC: 4 HCl(g) + O2(g) [pic] 2 Cl2(g) + 2 H2O(g) The concentrations of all species were measured at a particular

1. The Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. They have greatly increased the life-expectancy of those of us who live in "advanced" countries‚ but they have destabilized society‚ have made life unfulfilling‚ have subjected human beings to indignities‚ have led to widespread psychological suffering (in the Third World to physical suffering as well) and have inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of technology will worsen

Chemistry Summary The particle theory: 1. Matter is made of tiny particles 2. Particles of matter are in constant motion 3. Particles of matter are held together by very strong electric forces 4. There are empty spaces between the particles of matter that are very large compared to the particles themselves. 5. Each substance has unique particles that are different from the particles of other substances 6. Temperature affects the speed of the particles. The

In the end America needed industrial titans like Rockefeller and Carnegie. America was a young country so it was only right that it grew in time. Form this growth came new technologies. Also in a way Americans benefited from monopolies. It helped that some industrial titans were philanthropist. The way that America was growing it needed new technologies. Industrial titans did have very corrupt ways of business but they were only filling the demands of Americans. For many reasons people need access

Lab 4: Physical & Chemical Properties Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to distinguish if different substances react to heat or cold and if a solution is added to it during the experiment will it change the substance or leave it the same. Throughout the different tests each substance is put through a series of tests to determine if it changes in any way in regards to color‚ odor‚ or consistency from the start of the experiment. The results will be documented in table 1. Data Table 1: Solubility

Danger: Chemical Sunscreens Sunscreen is meant to be a product designed to protect the skin from the sun. The first form of sunscreen was a red‚ petroleum jelly like substance that was mainly used to aid troops during WWII‚ it then transformed into a sort of pasty‚ white substance of zinc oxide. As the years passed and society began to evolve into one that craved sun kissed skin‚ many companies started to brainstorm in search of a new kind of sunscreen. The formula they aimed for was one that protected
