Carbon Nanotubes Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a recently discovered allotrope of carbon. They take the form of cylindrical carbon molecules and have novel properties that make them potentially useful in a wide variety of applications in nanotechnology‚ electronics‚ optics‚ and other fields of materials science. They exhibit extraordinary strength and unique electrical properties‚ and are efficient conductors of heat. Inorganic nanotubes have also been synthesized. A nanotube is a member

A carbon footprint is "the total set of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions caused by an organization‚ event or product" [1]. For simplicity of reporting‚ it is often expressed in terms of the amount of carbon dioxide‚ or its equivalent of other GHGs‚ emitted. The concept name of the carbon footprint originates from ecological footprint discussion.[2] The carbon footprint is a subset of the ecological footprint and of the more comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). An individual‚ nation‚ or organization’s

Carbon nanotubes describes a specific topic within solid state physics‚ but is also of interest in other sciences like chemistry or biology‚ actually the topic has coating boundaries‚ because we are on the molecule level. The carbon nanotubes have in the recent years become more and more popular to the scientists. Initially‚ it was the spectacularly

Damage to the environment is an inevitable consequences of worldwide improvements in the standard of living. The improvement of people’s living standard owes too much to the rapid development of science and technology. However‚ people nowadays are confronted with so many problems‚ such as the deterioration of environment‚ air pollution and the explosive expansion of population. Some people claim that the damage to environment is an inevitable consequence of economic development. From my point of

introduction of the carbon tax in Australia. Recently‚ the carbon tax issue has been gaining increasing attention in Australia due to its function of reducing greenhouse gas as well as its extensive economic impacts on a range of industries‚ such as tourism and hospitality. The conceptual meaning of the carbon tax is “a levy applied to various operations that generate carbon dioxide” (Covey‚ 2009‚ p.329). Such a tax is introduced to achieve a desired national emission target (Covey‚ 2009)

Emission Spectroscopy The purpose of this lab was to see that when elements are heated‚ they may enter and excited state. We proved this by doing a flame test. During Part A‚ we used a spectroscope where all of the colors are arranged for you; whereas in Part B‚ we could see and make the colors ourselves and get a more accurate reading of the flames. We had specific elements we were told to put on the wire loop‚ and when we did that we saw different color flames come out of the Bunsen burner. That

WHAT CAN DAMAGE TO A BRAND IMAGE? CITE SOME EXAMPLES An organization’s brand is its heart and spirit. It’s a living thing‚ to be treasured‚ cherished and nurtured. It’s your reputation and promise – how you walk and talk and behave in business. It’s about integrity. Even more important‚ a brand is how others see‚ perceive and speak of you. It’s not something that can be contrived by a new coat of whitewash or silly‚ self-serving slogans. An organization’s brand – whether major corporation or entrepreneurial
