Organic farming cannot feed the developing world It is argued that without pesticides and genetically modified crops‚ farming is not economically viable in the developing world. Non-organic farming allows you to farm land that would otherwise not be farmable. Yields are high and costs are low. However‚ there is a worry that intensive farming in these countries will destroy the fertility of the land and in the long run organic farming will secure the future for sustainable farming.

Introduction to Gas Turbines A turbine is any kind of spinning device that uses the action of a fluid to produce work. Typical fluids are: air‚ wind‚ water‚ steam and helium. Windmills and hydroelectric dams have used turbine action for decades to turn the core of an electrical generator to produce power for both industrial and residential consumption. Simpler turbines are much older‚ with the first known appearance dating to the time of ancient Greece. In the history of energy conversion‚ however

hydrogen chloride has properties: Hydrogen chloride has one molecule of hydrogen and one molecule of chlorine: Hydrogen chloride has a very powerful smell. It is in the form of a gas but only when it is at room temperature which is approximately 25 Celsius and when the pressure is high. The solubility of hydrogen chloride is very high this means that it can dissolve in water quickly because it dissolves many times in its own solution (the gas form of hydrogen chloride). It is very soluble because

The Rate of a Reaction Chemical Kinetics is the area of Chemistry that is concerned with the speed‚ rate or mechanism at which a chemical reaction occurs. Reaction Rate is the change in the concentration of a reactant or product with time (i.e. M/s). It measures how fast a reactant is consumed and how fast a product is formed. 1.2 WRITING RATE EXPRESSIONS Consider the following hypothetical reaction. A + 2B ( 3C + D Rate = - rate of consumption of A = -[pic]rate of
