The Effects of Gun Control Law on Violent Crime Rates Emily JettCSCI N207Final Project12/8/2012 | Abstract: This paper discusses the relationship between violent crime rates in each state as well as that state’s corresponding gun control laws. The data is presented to provide information pertaining to the theory that stricter gun laws prevent higher rates of violent crime. Violent crime statistics were taken from The United Crime Report document from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s website

Kajfasz Patient Self-Determination Act Project – Advance Directives Congress enacted the Patient Self-Determination Act‚ a healthcare policy‚ as part of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act signed by President Bush in 1990. The act went into effect in 1991(Nathanson‚ 1997). According to Nathanson

The term distance determination corresponds with Forensic Gunshot Residue Distance Determination Testing. Distance determination is the process of determining the distance a firearm was shot from its intended target. The determination process requires the firearm to be test fired from various distances to compare gunshot residue (GSR) patterns made during the test and compared to the ones made on the target. Often times the request for distance determination occurs resulting in the death from a shooting

CH 127 – Chem 2 Lab Determination of an Equilibrium constant Goals The purpose of this experiment is to determine the equilibrium constant for the reaction Fe3+(aq) + HSCN(aq) –>FeSCN2+(aq) + H+(aq). The equilibrium constant expression Kc for Reaction is kc=FeSCN2+[H+]Fe3++[HSCN] Procedure *Preparation of the Beer’s law plot Prepare five solutions of FeSCN2+(aq) of known concentrations between 1x10-5M and 1x10-4M by diluting various volumes of 4.62x10-4 HSCN. Calculate the Final concentration

PRE - DETERMINATION 1. One day‚ you feel as if you are going to meet someone. Fortunately‚ you meet that person on the same day. But my question is‚ “How did you feel that you will meet that person that day?” 2. Few incidents in our life happen accidentally‚ but you will feel as if the same incident has happened already‚ but you won’t be able to remember when exactly it happened! My question is‚ “Was that feeling real?” A solution to all such questions is this “THEORY OF PRE-DETERMINATION”. This

Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Abstract: In this experiment‚ two reactions were run to determine the molar absorptivity and the equilibrium constant of FeSCN2+. The main principles used in this lab are equilibrium‚ LeChatlier’s Principle‚ Beer’s Law and Spectrocopy. The first reaction was run to completion using LeChatier’s Principle and the second reaction was run to equilibrium. A spectrophotometer was used to measure absorbances. Using a graph of absorbance versus concentration

INVESTIGATION #2 DETERMINATION OF THE WATER OF CRYSTALLISATION April 4‚ 2012 OBJECTIVE: Chemical compounds that contain discrete water molecules as part of their crystalline structure are called hydrates. Hydrates occur quite commonly among chemical substances‚ especially among ionic substances. More often than not‚ such compounds are either prepared in‚ or are recrystallized from‚ aqueous solutions. Hydrates exist for ionic compounds most commonly‚ but hydrates of polar and non polar covalent molecules
