others‚ or dying for his country? Andrew Carnegie was no Ulysses Grant but he was also not Vanderbilt‚ Carnegie gave back to his country with the riches he earned. We cannot look upon Carnegie as being the child with the silver spoon in his mouth growing up. He was poor growing up and was business savvy which is how he became rich. We should not punish him for using his knowledge to become successful but we should look at what he did with the money. Andrew Carnegie was a hero‚ he not only brought

A flame test is conducted when an element is burned and the flame produces a color different the starting flame color. When the coffee stirrer was put into the flame‚ the element’s atoms (from the solution of the stirrer) left the original level of energy. When the atoms fell back to ground level‚ they released photons in the form of colored flame. Using the flame test‚ unknown compounds can be identified when they are burned since each element has a specific color. (Douma‚ 2008). The color

11th D Flame Test Intro: The flame test is a procedure used by chemists to identify the presence of specified metal ions‚ based on the color the flame that appears along with it when it ’s heated. Our flame test was in lab class‚ where the main aim was to tested different solid metals in the flame in order to observe the wide variety of colors those chemicals also sometimes compounds (by mixing them) they produced‚ the second one was to identify unknown metals based on their flame color

The world revolves around currency‚ in reality we all use money in our everyday life we are making it‚ spending it or saving it. Andrew Lang wrote “Ballade of Wordly Wealth‚” through repetition in this poem we learn about the people in the 1800s and 1900s and what they thought about money.

Lab 20: Flame Tests Purpose/Objective: The ground state is the normal electron configuration of atoms or ions in an element. When atoms or ions in ground state are heated to a higher temperature‚ some electrons absorb enough energy to move them to higher energy levels. This is known as the excited state. However‚ the excited configuration is unstable‚ and the electrons must return back to their positions in the lower energy level. As they return‚ the energy that was previously absorbed is now emitted

this‚ rinse it with distilled water from the wash bottle‚ dip it into the Hydrochloric Acid‚ and place it in the burner flame for a few moments. 4. Take note of the color of the flame when the wire is clean. This is the color you should see after each cleaning. 5. Once the wire is clean‚ dip it into one of the solutions‚ place the wire in the flame‚ and observe the color of the flame. 6. Clean the Nichrome wire as directed in step 3‚ then repeat step 5 until all of the solutions have been tested.

Background In the Flame test lab we took a simple wire‚ looped it‚ and rinsed it in HCL (Hydrochloric Acid ). Then we dipped the wire in the different samples provided. The samples provided were Sodium‚Potassium‚Calcium‚ Barium‚ Strontium‚ Lithium ‚ and Copper II. Finally we put the wire loop into the flame of the bunsen burner. The flame erupted into many different colors for each specific sample. We then used the colors we recorded to find the two unknown samples given to us. But the question
