INSE 6230– Total Quality Project Management Fall 2013‚ Instructor: Dr. Chun Wang Assignment 1 Part 1 Short Answer Questions Chapter 1 1. Why is there a new or renewed interest in the field of project management? Project management is very important for a good business because it provides the project managers to aim for the success of the project. The computer hardware‚ software and networks have radically changed the work environment. Timing is the important factor in the business

Determination of the Rate Constant for a Chemical Reaction Department of Chemistry Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the rate constant k‚ for hydrolysis of tertiary butyl chloride to tertiary butanol. The solvent system for this reaction is 45% isopropyl alcohol and 55% water. The rate of hydrolysis of t-butyl chloride is measured by the decrease in the concentration of this reagent with time. The rate of decomposition of t-butyl chloride must be equal to the rate of formation

The Effect of Exercise on Heart Rate The aim of this investigation is to find out how different types of exercise can affect my heart rate. To measure and record my heart rate‚ I am going to undergo an experimental test. I am going to do 3 different types of exercise: walking‚ light jog and lastly hard running. First‚ I will draw out a table to record my results‚ and then I will measure my resting heart rate for one minute. To make the experiment as accurate as possible‚ I will

Spot Rate and Forward Rate Spot Rate: It is nothing more than the YTM on bond. It is the rate of interest on bond maturing at any time in the future. It is also known as geometric average of 1 year forward rates in the future. Hence‚ YTM on bonds can be calculated as: When forward rates are given then; oS1 = oF1 oS2 = [(1+of1)(1+1F2)](1/2) -1 oS3 = [(1+of1)(1+1F2)(1+2F3)](1/3) -1 and so on. Forward Rates: It is the interest rate established today ‚ that will be paid on money to

1. HOW IS UNEMPLOYMENT MEASURED? Based on my research (Abs.gov.au‚ 2015)‚ the Australian Labour Market Statistics (July 2014); the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) measures the unemployment rate in Australia. The data came and it is published monthly from the Labour Force Survey (LFS) in Labour Force‚ Australia (cat. no. 6202.0). And are described by many attributes such as age; sex; marital status; geography; country of birth duration of job search. An individual is said to be employed if he

AIMS The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of temperature rise on the rate of transpiration of a plant (hibiscus) by measuring the plant’s water uptake in a period of time. HYPOTHESIS Transpiration is the process by which plants loses water to the atmosphere from their leaves. Water in the plant is lost to the atmosphere by evaporation. Evaporation of water can occur at any temperature. In the presence of sunlight‚ water in the plants evaporates into the intercellular air

reaction used to determine the experimental rate law of is 2I-(aq) + H2O2(aq) I2(aq) + 2H2O2(l). The rate law determined experimentally is rate= k[I-]1.017[H2O2]0.927. Additionally by performing essentially the same experiments but with temperature changes one can determine how k is affected by temperature changes and the new activation energy. Also‚ from graphs the activation energy was determined to be 33.3 kJ/mol. INTRODUCTION: The rate of a chemical reaction often depends on reactant
