there have been many wars in history‚ the Civil War has been the most important one to the United States.

The South was not happy about that‚ so they fired on Fort Sumter and won the Battle of Fort Sumter which was the first conflict of the Civil War. The Civil War occurred from April

THE PERIODIC TABLE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The idea that all things are elements or combinations of elements can be found in the writings of the ancient Greeks and other early peoples. Although this idea may seem simple‚ it is very difficult to decide if a substance is indeed an element or a compound. There were twelve chemical elements discovered in ancient times‚ but it was not known that they were elements. Another 76 elements were discovered between 1557 and 1925. Many mistakes were made in

thermodynamic variables of KNO3 is presented. KNO3 was heated and dissolved in varying volumes of distilled water. Upon dissolution‚ the KNO3 solution was removed from heat and the temperature was recorded once crystals formed. For each solution‚ ∆G the Ksp were found with the temperature and molarity values. ∆H and ∆S were found through the linearization of the data with a plot of lm(Ksp) vs. . ∆G becomes increasingly negative as temperature and concentration increased. ∆H was found to be 29

analysis of variance (MANOVA) is a generalized form of univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA). It is used when there are two or more dependent variables. It helps to answer : 1. do changes in the independent variable(s) have significant effects on the dependent variables; 2. what are the interactions among the dependent variables and 3. among the independent variables.[1] Where sums of squares appear in univariate analysis of variance‚ in multivariate analysis of variance certain positive-definite matrices appear

In particular‚ it is neither necessary nor sufficient to prevent attribute disclosure. Motivated by these limitations‚ we propose a new notion of privacy called “closeness.” We first present the base model closeness‚ which requires that the distribution of a sensitive attribute in any equivalence class is close to the distribution of the attribute in the overall table (i.e.‚ the
