specialization‚ division of labour and the most important thing‚ comparative advantage. The next step of a FTA would be a customs union‚ which has a common external tariff. Members of FTA’s are free to set their own external tariff. The TAFTA‚ the Trans-Atlantic Free Trade Agreement‚ is herefore a proposal for a FTA between the US and Europe‚ as shown in Picture 1. Other possible members of this FTA could be the European Free Trade Agreement (EFTA) and the North-American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)

The opposition of the Trans-Alaska pipeline did their best to keep the pipeline from becoming established but their efforts where in vain. With oil prices high‚ and so much support coming from Washington and the lower 48 states‚ it wasn’t long until the pipeline was constructed. However‚ the opposition would get another change to argue their points. In the spring of 1989‚ the Exxon Valdez oil tanker spilled its precious cargo in the Prince William Sound after it struck a reef‚ spilling between 11

women and decide to be part of the movement? An interesting concept of this day and age has arisen. The evolving social norms including gays and trans-genders have altered the roles of men and women interchangeably. As society becomes more relaxed with how far to stray from traditional roles‚ feminists gain a foreign enemy. A loose group called Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminism does not tolerate transgender women and aims to exclude men who have become women and desire to join the movement.

reasoning for my opinion. The articles and information exposed as of today could be targeted to only one side of the argument and favoring the pros side‚ or vice versa. Most of my ideas were formed from the opinions of professionals dealing with the Trans-Pacific Partnership because of the lack of information‚ analysts can only make predictions and educated estimates on the effect of the TPP on the Canadian economy. That means‚ their arguments are based on a limited amount of information

British mercantilism established itself with the help of the trans-Atlantic trade. Great Britain was then able to have adequate supremacy over the colonies to impose several acts such as the Navigation Acts and Molasses Act. Trade routes linked the American Colonies‚ West Indies‚ Africa and England. England‚ being the mother country‚ wanted a favorable balance of trade. The triangular trade is an example of mercantilism‚ or the idea that the mother country gains wealth and power by controlling

RATE OF REACTIONS. The reaction rate (rate of reaction) or speed of reaction for a reactant or product in a particular reaction is intuitively defined as how fast or slow a reaction takes place. For example‚ the oxidative rusting of iron under the atmosphere is a slow reaction that can take many years‚ but the combustion of cellulose in a fire is a reaction that takes place in fractions of a second (right). Chemical kinetics is the part of physical chemistry that studies reaction rates. The concepts

Abstract This experiment is to study the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction between potassium permanganate with oxalic acid. We used 2cm3 of 0.02M potassium permanganate and 4cm3 of 1M sulphuric acid into a test tube. In another test tube‚ we placed 2cm3 of oxalic acid. We placed the test tubes in a water bath at 40‚ 45‚ 50‚ 55 and 60oC respectively. When the solutions have attained these temperatures pour the oxalic acid into the acidified permanganate solution and recorded the time

Lab #4: Aqueous Reactions Introduction: In this experiment we studied the two different types of aqueous chemical reactions‚ double replacement and single replacement. In a double replacement reaction one or both of the products is an insoluble ionic compound or otherwise known as a precipitate; or a non-electrolyte; or a gas. In a single replacement reaction there is typically a metal and an ionic compound consisting of a metal cation and a non-meatl anion. Singel replacement ractions occur when
