bombs and hydrogen bombs. The hydrogen bomb is the most powerful‚ destructive bomb of all. In this essay I’m going to give a brief history of the hydrogen bomb‚ the chemistry behind the bomb‚ and how much destruction the hydrogen bomb can do. After the Soviet Union’s atomic bomb success during the cold war‚ the U.S wanted something bigger and stronger. In 1950‚ President Harry S. Truman announced work on the hydrogen bomb. A group of scientists led by Edward Teller created the first hydrogen bomb in

<b>Thesis Statement</b><br>The hydrogen bomb is a nuclear weapon in which light atomic nuclei of hydrogen are joined together in an uncontrolled nuclear fusion reaction to release tremendous amounts of energy. The hydrogen bomb is about a thousand times as powerful as the atomic bomb‚ which produces a nuclear fission explosion about a million times more powerful than comparably sized bombs using conventional high explosives such as TNT.<br><br><b>The Hydrogen Bomb</b><br>The Atomic Bomb Was A Essential

temperature; this chemical element is abbreviated as He. Helium has two protons in its nucleus whereas the atomic number of helium is 2 and is listed in group VIII of the periodic table. As a noble gas helium is almost chemically inert‚ unreactive. After hydrogen‚ helium is the most abundant element in the universe. During an eclipse in 1868‚ French astronomer Pierre Janssen discovered helium. After Helium was proven to be an element it was named by a British chemist Sir Edward Frankland and British astronomer

that way if you believe in the power of change. Hydrogen fuel is that change for the automobiles of the future. Hydrogen has been used for decades‚ but mostly for commercial use. Each year‚ we get closer to removing the oil company’s choke hold on our wallets. It’s time to drive with a lighter purse and a cleaner environment and it’s time for hydrogen fuel. The two largest points of debate with hydrogen fuel are cost and production Hydrogen fuel is a cheaper alternative to our current source

HYDROGEN BONDING: Hydrogen bonding is a bonding type consisting of dipole and dispersion forces. A hydrogen bond is the attractive force between a hydrogen atom attached to a molecule and an atom of a different molecule. According to the Pauling scale of electro-negativities of the elements‚ it can be viewed that the three most electronegative elements in the periodical table are nitrogen‚ oxygen and fluorine. These are also called heteroatoms. The heteroatoms have a partial negative charge while

Hydrogen Fuel Cells There are many reasons to look for new cleaner forms of energy. Fossil fuels‚ being non-renewable‚ will eventually run out. Pollution from burning fossil fuels destroys our environment. Hydrogen fuel cells could be used many places where fossil fuels are currently being used. Using hydrogen as a form of energy can not only reduce our dependence on imported oil‚ but also benefit the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants that affect our air quality

Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide February 22‚ 2007 Chem. 1130 TA: Ms. Babcock Room 1830 Chemistry Annex PURPOSE OF THE EXPERIMENT Kinetics of Hydrogen Peroxide The major purpose of this experiment is to determine the rate law constant for the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide. In this experiment‚ the goal will be to try to measure the rate law constant at low acidity‚ since at low acidity‚ anything less than 1.0 x 10-3M‚ the effect of the hydrogen ion is negligible. To calculate

Effects of Different Concentration of Catalyse on Hydrogen Peroxide Aim: In this investigation I will try to find how long it takes for the filter paper disc to rise up whilst varying the amounts of concentration of catalyse. Prediction: I predict that the lower the concentration of catalyse the longer it will take for the filter paper disc to rise to the surface of the tube. Equipment: 1. Hydrogen peroxide in a container 2. Flat bottom tube 3. Tweezers 4. Filter paper
