phones to send text messages. The majority of today’s mobile phone users have become texters. One big advantage that everyone likes is that text messaging is one of the cheapest and fastest ways of communicating with people around the world. For example if you have to tell something to someone‚ but you don’t want to interrupt them with a phone call‚ you can text them and they can look at it when they have a chance. The term SMS is another term for Short Message Service. It refers to the means of

Redox Reactions Reactions involving oxidation and reduction processes are very important in our everyday world. They make batteries work and cause metals to corrode (or help to prevent their corrosion). They enable us to obtain heat by burning fuels--in factories and in our bodies. Many redox reactions are complex. However‚ combustion and synthesis (from elements) are two ordinary examples which require very little description. Just a little more involved are the displacement reactions‚ with

Polymerization reaCTIONS polymers are high-molecular-weight compounds‚ fashioned by the aggregation of many smaller molecules called monomers. Ex. plastics that have so changed society and the natural and synthetic fibers used in clothing are polymers. Classification of polymers Homopolymers - consist of repeated long chains or structures of the same monomer unit. Ex. PVC(polyvinyl chloride) Copolymers - polymers that consist of more than one molecule. Trimers - molecules consisting

Lab #5: Grignard Reaction – Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol John Kang Chem 152L Performed: 7/20/04 Date submitted: ________________ Lab Partners: Sang Lee‚ Vicky Lai TA: John Stanko Abstract: This experiment explored the synthesis of triphenylmethanol through the use of Grignard reagents. The percent yield of the product was 10% on a relatively humid day. The melting point was calculate to be 127.2oC with a literature value of 162oC. An IR spectrum of the product was taken and used

Biology 104 Reaction Times Objectives: 1. Formulate and test hypotheses regarding reaction times. Introduction: Reaction time is a measure of how quickly an organism can respond to a particular stimulus. Reaction time has been widely studied‚ as its practical implications may be of great consequence‚ e.g. a slower than normal reaction time while driving can have grave results. Many factors have been shown to affect reaction times‚ including age‚ gender‚ physical fitness‚ fatigue‚ distraction

Some students apply for admission only to their first-choice school‚ while others apply to several schools. Which plan do you agree with‚ and why? Be sure to include details and examples to support your opinion. Although I understand students who desire to concentrate all of their energy on applications to their first-choice schools‚ I support making application to several different schools. There are two reasons why I feel this is important. First‚ application does not guarantee admission

Chemical Reactions & Equations CHEMICAL REACTION : In a reaction when the original state of the particle changes and it cannot be reversed by simple physical means‚ this type of reaction is known as chemical reaction. Example :- Fermentation of grapes‚ burning of wood etc. In this reaction we have seen that after burning of wood‚ coal is formed and we cannot make wood from coal. PHYSICAL REACTION : In a reaction when original state of the particle can be recovered by any means then this type of

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation

of the week when Pete receives big shipments of inventory for the store. When that occurs the retail part of the Garden Center can be really busy for a few days after stocking the new inventory. Inventory can range from a variety of things‚ for example; garden rocks in assorted rock pallets‚ mulch bags sorted out by type‚ hay bales stacked‚ and even bird baths. So as one of the three managers‚ Pete has to make sure things go well and items are placed correctly and neatly throughout the store‚ in
