Electricity from Natural Gas Natural gas is a fossil fuel formed when layers of buried plants and animals are exposed to intense heat and pressure over thousands of years. The energy that the plants and animals originally obtained from the sun is stored in the form of carbon in natural gas. Natural gas is combusted to generate electricity‚ enabling this stored energy to be transformed into usable power. Natural gas is a nonrenewable resource because it cannot be replenished on a human time frame

Mustard Gas During World War I LOST was the original name for mustard gas‚ it was named after Lommel and Steinkopf. They were the first people who proposed this gas to the military to use as a weapon in 1916. Although mustard gas could possibly been developed as early as 1822 by a French chemist‚ Cesar-Mansuete Desperetez. Thirty-two years later Alfred Riche repeated this reaction of the sulfur dichloride and ethylene‚ but both Riche and Desperetez did not note any harsh properties. In 1860‚

Boyle’s Law - Solutions 1) If I have 5.6 liters of gas in a piston at a pressure of 1.5 atm and compress the gas until its volume is 4.8 L‚ what will the new pressure inside the piston be? P1V1 = P2V2 (1.5 atm)(5.6 L) = (x)(4.8 L) x = 1.8 atm 2) I have added 15 L of air to a balloon at sea level (1.0 atm). If I take the balloon with me to Denver‚ where the air pressure is 0.85 atm‚ what will the new volume of the balloon be? P1V1 = P2V2 (1.0 atm)(15 L) = (0.85 atm)(x) x = 18

My thoughts about the film‚ Fruitvale Station‚ are plenty. The film was more critical of Oscar‚ and I understand some of the criticisms that are leveled on the one side portrayal of Oscar. This movie is much more one-sided than I had expected it to be. We are introduced to the story of the footage where police are seen shooting the handcuffed Oscar. The movie made it so hard for me to sympathize with the officers who are supposed to protect the people and maintain the law. Even if the character Oscar

is * Sulfur mustard is a type of chemical warfare agent. These kinds of agents are called vesicants or blistering agents‚ because they cause blistering of the skin and mucous membranes on contact. * Sulfur mustard is also known as “mustard gas or mustard agent‚” or by the military designations H‚ HD‚ and HT. * Sulfur mustard sometimes smells like garlic‚ onions‚ or mustard and sometimes has no odor. It can be a vapor (the gaseous form of a liquid)‚ an oily-textured liquid‚ or a solid

Gas Chromatography Purpose: The purpose of the gas chromatography lab is to find out how different substances interact with the surface of a solid. Chromatography is a separation technique that depends on the relative distribution of the components of a mixture between a mobile phase and a solid stationary phase. Chromatography measures the tendency of a substance to interact with the surface of a solid or to remain in a mobile phase. When doing a chromatography lab the mobile phase has to

It was the summer season. We were free from school. We were a party of four friends. We decided to go to Mussourie— a fine health resort in the Himalayas. We went to Dehradun by train. From there we decided to go to Mussourie on foot. A bus could also take us there‚ but we just wanted to have a novel experience of hiking. We reached Rajpur. It is just at the foot of the hills. It was from here that we set out for Mussourie on foot. We hired two coolies at Rajpur to carry outr luggage. Our route
