Heat and Temperature Heat is often described by the average individual as being the change in temperature from hot to cold. “Often the concepts of heat and temperature are thought to be the same‚ but they are not.” Heat and Temperature‚ para. 2) Perhaps the reasoning behind the incorrect reasoning is that humans associate the two together because when heat is applied to an object the temperature rises. The kinetic theory of matter better explains the underlying cause as to what takes place

Alkali Metals Introduction Alkali metals refer to six elements belonging to the Group IA of the long form of the Modern Periodic Table‚ viz. Lithium (Li)‚ Sodium (Na)‚ Potassium (K)‚ Rubidium (Rb)‚ Cesium (Cs) and Francium (Fr). Fr is a radioactive element. These elements are called so because they form strongly alkaline oxides and hydroxides. Electronic Configuration of Alkali Metals Each of the alkali metals has one electron in their outermost (valence) shell‚ which is just outside an inert

EXTRACTION OF METALS SUMMARY Most metals exist in compounds in rocks in the Earth’s crust. Many of these ores contain oxides or sulphides of the metals. The compounds need to be reduced to produce the metals as elements. Metals are very useful to us because of their special properties. Reduction means removal of oxygen or gain of electrons. Carbon is a good chemical reducing agent because it readily combines with oxygen‚ but it is only useful for the metals below it in the Reactivity

Capacity Planning Based on time horizon or duration it is viewed in three (i) Long-range Capacity Planning Time horizon is of more than one or two years. It is carried for productive resources which a long time. Long-range capacity planning requires participation and approval of top management personnel. (ii) Intermediate-range Capacity Planning It has a time horizon for 6 to 18 months. It may be varied by such alternative such as hiring off or laying off labour‚ purchasing or making new tools

CAPACITY AND DEMAND Capacity management is the activity of coping with mismatches between supply and demand. Capacity is the ability an operation or process has to supply demand. Usually this means how many products or services it can produce over a period of time. It’s something that is a basic responsibility of operations managers in any kind of organization. Therefore‚ one of the first things that any manager must ask themselves is‚ what is the operation’s‚ or process’s‚ current capacity

I. BACKGROUND Precious metals and gemstones have been a popular investment vehicle especially in Asian countries and on the part of those who are constantly moving from one country to another. Asians have a special fondness for them because precious metals and gemstones have enabled them to survive hard times most especially when the super power waged their wars on our shores. Another reason for this is the presence of many gold deposits and mines in our country

INTRODUCTION: Capacity building and Community Development models to formulate programs and projects that is not only sustainable but can also benefit the community in the long term with self-reliance and make a positive difference in community. There are different social and political ideologies and perspectives of community development‚ these ideologies and perspectives make different assumptions of how society functions and the need and level of interventions in the society (Ife‚ 1995‚ p 119)

corporate intranet to help departments communicate effectively. The schedule for different departments to ‘go live’ on the intranet is set‚ and we have to purchase the appropriate servers‚ minimizing cost and making sure that the intranet has enough capacity to handle the employees that start using the intranet each month. I picked this case because it resembles the types of problems that I faced during my summer internship at The CocaCola Company. One of my responsibilities was to assist in the cost
