Chemical bonds are what make up the world. In bonds‚ elements are held together and form compounds that may have new physical and chemical properties. There are two main kinds of bonds‚ they ionic and covalent. In bonding the goal of the atoms involved is to reach a level of stability with less energy. In order to reach the epitome of stability‚ as in the case of noble gases‚ an atom strives to complete its outer shell. Either losing or gaining electrons may do this‚ which concludes in an ionic bond

The first story i’m choosing to refer to is ‘Between the pool and the Gardenias’. In this story it shows how the main character Marie found a baby and took the baby in as her own. We learned that she had multiple miscarriages and also works as a maid. Later on in the story we found out that the baby was actually deceased and that she was just hallucinating thinking the baby was real . I believe that in this story women are portrayed as a source of children and that is all they are really good for

Chemical kinetics‚ also known as reaction kinetics‚ is the study of rates of chemical processes. Chemical kinetics includes investigations of how different experimental conditions can influence the speed of a chemical reaction and yield information about the reaction’s mechanism and transition states‚ as well as the construction of mathematical models that can describe the characteristics of a chemical reaction. In 1864‚ Peter Waage and Cato Guldberg pioneered the development of chemical kinetics

In 2015‚ Steven Mackey composed his masterpiece entitled Mnemosyne’s Pool. This song is unlike any other piece I have ever heard before. I was fortunate enough to witness this song played live at the St Louis Symphony earlier this fall. With its complexity and brilliance‚ the music hooked me from the beginning notes. The orchestra began with the first movement and the strange and eerie blends of sounds harkened the audience to a dream-like remembering. The music was very dark and ominous while
