An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example‚ the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system: if the system is divided in half‚ the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. According

Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans breed other animals and plants for particular traits. Typically‚ strains that are selectively bred are domesticated‚ and the breeding is normally done by a professional breeder. Bred animals are known as breeds‚ while bred plants are known as varieties‚ cultigens‚ or cultivars. The cross of animals results in what is called a crossbreed‚ and crossbred plants are called hybrids. In animal breeding techniques such

The intensive supervision model was adopted as an “alternative sanction” to assist in reducing overcrowding in the prison system and aid in the reduction of cost to house an already overcrowded inmate population‚ as well as reduce recidivism (Latessa & Smith‚ 2011).

Selective Precipitation of the Barium Magnesium Group ABSTRACT The purpose of this lab was to identify the cations from the barium magnesium group present in an assigned unknown solution through selective precipitation. This was a qualitative lab where the theory of the common ion effect was used in several steps. Once the experiment was completed‚ it was determined that unknown solution #4 contained Ba2+‚ Sr2+‚ and Mg2+ ions. INTRODUCTION Selective precipitation is a part of chemistry
