This shows that everyone is different and has a wide range of views. Knowing this‚ one can assume that each one of their views on utopia must be equally as varied. Therefore‚ achieving a common utopia is near impossible. A utopia is a perfect place where everyone is happy both in society and in oneself. Motivation; an element of life that gives someone the

    “You are not that special”‚ “Do you want to be thrown into a mental hospital?”‚ “You can’t do anything right” “retard…” Admittedly‚ this is a strange introduction when discussing about possible-selves; seeing that these quotes are highly derogatory. However‚ there is a method to my madness. That is to say‚ in view of the theory about possible selves‚ it brings up the question: if a child could overcome the trauma they endured and achieve success? Concerning my possible self‚ the years of abuse resulted

    Chemical Bonding Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms.

    I am going to talk about how gold is made. I also noticed some physical and chemical changes happening in the video. My first Physical change I saw was when they drill in a certain spot‚ on the rock then they can put the pieces back together and pretend it did not happen because the molecules have not changed in the object‚ you are just breaking them into smaller pieces. So that is why it is a physical change. A chemical change I saw is when there is gold mixed with other materials like silver and

    The atmosphere of Earth is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by Earth’s gravity. The atmosphere protects life on Earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation‚ warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect)‚ and reducing temperature extremes between day and night (the diurnal temperature variation).The common name given to the atmospheric gases used in breathing and photosynthesis is air. Dry air contains roughly (by volume) 78.09% nitrogen‚ 20.95% oxygen
