Most elements have isotopes. For stable isotopes‚ an interesting plot arises when the number of neutrons is plotted versus the number of protons. Because the plot shows only the stable isotopes‚ this graph is often called the Nuclear Belt of Stability. The plot indicates that lighter nuclides (isotopes) are most stable when the neutron/proton ratio is 1/1. This is the case with any nucleus that has up to 20 protons. As the atomic number increases beyond 20‚ a different trend becomes apparent. In

THE CHEMISTRY OF ORGANIC MOLECULES I. MACROMOLECULES-large molecules that are composed of smaller molecules and atoms that are bonded together. These are among the largest of all chemical molecules. A. Polymers-the largest of the macromolecules. These are composed of numerous‚ small identical subunits known as Monomers. There are 4 major polymers that are important for living organisms. These polymers are; carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids. B. Polymers

Unit 2 Lesson 3 The kinetic theory of matter explains that matter is made up of particles‚ which are in constant motion resulting in the different states of matter. Matter is made of constantly moving particles‚ which tells us how the matter in solids‚ liquids‚ and gases behaves. When molecules bump into each other‚ they do not gain or lose energy‚ they only transfer it‚ so there is no net energy change (law of the conservation of energy). In a solid‚ molecules vibrate in a fixed position

magnetic resonance. 1949 Using Rabi’s technique‚ NIST (then the National Bureau of Standards) announces the world’s first atomic clock using the ammonia molecule as the source of vibrations. 1952 NIST announces the first atomic clock using cesium atoms as the vibration source. This clock is named NBS-1. 1954 NBS-1 is moved to NIST’s new laboratories in Boulder‚ Colo. 1955 The National Physical Laboratory in England builds the first cesium-beam clock used as a calibration source. 1958

2013 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Coupe vs. 2013 Nissan GT-R Coupe 2013 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 Coupe The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is the extraordinary American sports automobile. Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 weighs at 3‚353 pounds; the Zr1 is dependent upon the aluminum suspension of the Corvette Z06. With a top speed of 205 mph‚ the Zr1 is the speediest auto ever manufactured by Gm. It’s exciting to drive and conveys stunning speeding up exhibition and astoundingly determined grasp for braking‚ drifting and

the element changes into a different isotope of the same element or into an entirely different element. Recall that isotopes of an element are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. Different elements are distinguished by having different numbers of protons.

1.1: Thesis outline Purines breakdown by the body will form a chemical called uric acid. Uric acid mostly can be found in foods and drinks like dried been and pears. Normally‚ most of the uric acid dissolves in blood and move from blood to the kidneys. High level uric acid kidney or blood caused some bad effect such as leukemia‚ hyperuricemic and lymphoma. Therefore‚ the electrochemical method (graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode method) are introduced to detect the uric acid in human

water(2cm3). Lipids (fats and oils: 10%-20%) Soluble in non-polar solvents. Fats‚ which are made from the elements carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen‚ provide a more concentrated energy source than carbohydrates. The carbon atoms are less oxidized as the molecules have fewer oxygen atoms in their molecules and so more energy is released when the molecules are completely oxidized to carbon dioxide and water. The fat stored in adipose tissue provides insulation‚ which regulates the temperature of the body
