This paper relates to the concepts I learned from weeks one and two of my Economics class and how market forces affect the price of sugar. Characterized by volatile prices and widespread intervention sugar is one of the most massively traded agricultural commodities in the international and local markets (Sariannidis‚ 2010‚ p. 1). Sugar is one of the staple foods most people cannot live without. The reason I am using sugar as the subject of this paper is because I observed raw sugar has doubled its

PROBLEM SET 3 Problems for Chapter 3 1. Suppose the consumption function in the U.S. is represented by the following equation: C = 200 + .5 YD‚ where YD = Y – T and T = 200. a. What is the level of consumption in this economy if YD = 0? Briefly explain how individuals “pay for” this consumption when YD = 0. b. Given the above parameters‚ calculate the level of consumption if Y = 1200. Suppose Y increases to 1300. What happens to the level of YD as Y increases to 1300 (i.e. calculate

Determination of Equilibrium Constants Introduction Bromothymol blue is an indicator for many acid-base titrations. When adding different solutions within the indicator it is to react and change colors‚ in this experiment the different colors were blue‚ green‚ and yellow. In the following experiment‚ obtaining the absorbance levels for each one makes it possible to calculate the equilibrium constant. Materials and Methods For this specific experiment there are a few materials that are crucial

Introduction: Chemical equilibrium is when the concentrations of the reactants and products have reached a state where reactions occurring in one direction are at the same rate of reactions occurring in the opposite direction. This process‚ called dynamic equilibrium‚ is the main subject of Le Chatelier’s Principle. Le Chatelier pointed out that if a system at equilibrium is subjected to a stress that momentarily causes the system to be not in equilibrium‚ a spontaneous change will occur to

Mme. Loisel of “The Necklace” is a dynamic character. But to argue this opinion‚ there are many reasons why Mme. Loisel is in fact‚ a static character. Guy de Maupassant skillfully develops the character of Mme. Loisel in “The Necklace” with an unvarying nature by her thoughts and words. Maupassant begins to competently develop the traits of Mme. Loisel as a static character by her thoughts. The life of Mme. Loisel is described by her residence filled with the‚ hideousness of the drapes‚ the shabbiness

is considered in a state of equilibrium when its properties do not change at time passes. Equilibrium is a state of a reaction where the concentration of all the reactants and all the products remain constant over time. Equilibrium as used in chemical systems means that all the chemical forces in a reaction are in balance and that all physical properties of the system (color‚ density and concentration) of all chemicals species involved remains constant. The equilibrium state can be characterized by
