dislike for atomic bombs. In his presidency there were some instances involving the Cold War that many of his supporters and advisors believed an atomic bomb would be needed. However Eisenhower stood strong on his opinions and resolved the conflicts without using not only atomic bombs but no military force at all. At the UN’s General Assembly meeting in New York of December‚ 1953 he gave his famous “Atoms for Peace” speech. Just eight years prior the U.S. dropped two atomic bombs in Nagasaki and Hiroshima

On August 6‚ 1945‚ the United States of America dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima‚ Japan. The United States was justified to do this because of the unprovoked attack and bombing of Pearl Harbor‚ Hawaii‚ which occurred three years prior to the bombing of Hiroshima‚ and it was necessary to stop the war because it saved thousands of American lives. Until then‚ the fight had never been on United States soil. The innocent civilians of Japan did not have to worry about being killed on their land until

suggestions come to mind‚ raging from the invention of the iPhone to the Civil War. I believe that the most important event was the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The dropping of the bombs saved over a million American lives‚ introduced America as a world power‚ and‚ if not most importantly‚ was the first steps into the Cold War. If the bombs had not been dropped‚ many American lives would have been lost‚ and the war could have dragged on for many more years. If “Operation Downfall”

Leo Szilard‚ a Hungarian scientist‚ began research discovering the possibility to use the neutron of an atom to split the nucleus into smaller parts‚ resulting in two different elements and energy. This process was called fission‚ and it was the basis for the atomic weapons designed and created for use in the Second World War. In early 1939‚ German physicists found a way to split a uranium atom‚ paving the way to atomic weaponry. Out of fear from the power in the enemy hands‚ Albert Einstein‚

Determination of the Resonance Stabilization Energy of Benzene Using Bomb Calorimetry Kaitlynn‚ Jesse ‚ Belinda Truman State University Abstract The resonance stabilization energy of benzene is investigated by the combustion of cyclododecatriene. The heat of combustion for cyclododecatriene was determined using bomb calorimetry and used to solve for the stabilization energy of benzene. The bond stabilization energy of benzene is found to be 167.6 ± 388

Chapter 2 The History of the Atom It took many scientists and philosophers hundreds even thousands of years to come up with an accurate atomic theory. For nearly 2‚000 years science was unable to come up with experiments that were able to test and put forth the theories made up by Democritus which was a fifth century B.C. Greek philosopher. In 1803‚ John Dalton‚ who viewed the atom as a small solid sphere‚ and is credited for the developing of the first coherent atomic theory was now in the picture
