The Life Cycle and the Social Clock Early models of adult development sometimes assumed that marriage is a requisite life task for full adulthood. Stage models posited a linear set of stages that people progressed through over the course of a lifetime. The concept of the social clock describes societal expectations for the time at which people are expected to marry‚ have children‚ and accomplish other life tasks. What are the implications of these expectations for the ways in which people who are

How does a catalyst in the form of a metal ion affect the rate of reaction in an iodide clock reaction with potassium peroxydisulphate ions? Background When peroxydisulfate ions (S2O82-) react with iodide ions (I-) in the presence of a starch indicator‚ they produce a dark blue solution. Reaction (1) S2O82- + 3I- I3- + 2 SO42- (peroxydisulfate ion) (iodide ion) (iodine ion) (sulfate ion) To determine the rate law for this reaction a series of changes

Many advanced high school and college chemistry students perform an experiment known as the "iodine-clock" reaction‚ in which hydrogen peroxide reacts with iodide to form iodine‚ and the iodine subsequently reacts with thiosulfate ion until the thiosulfate has been consumed. At that point‚ the reaction solutions turn blue in the presence of starch. The experiment helps students understand the fundamentals of chemical kinetics --- the speeds at which reactions take place. 1. Activation Energy

Analysis The 13 Clocks is a fairy tale told by a twentieth century author. Its themes are clearly statements about the moral concerns of the time and perhaps are intended more for adults than for children‚ even though James Thurber used the form of a child’s story.

The clock nowadays are technology that has been taken for granted. The focus of this case study is to show the importance of time measurement and how our life nowadays revolves around it. By going through history all the way from using the sun and stars to the development of clocks that neither lose nor gain one second in 200 million years to show how

presence of substitutes as its demand is affected by the change in the substitute’s prices. The new technologies available also affect the demand of the product. Substitutes for the Tata already existed in the market from players like Maruti‚ General Motors‚ Mitshibushi‚ Hyundai‚ Honda‚ etc. Most of the car manufacturer has a product in this segment to defend their market share in terms of volume. Result: Threat of substitutes is HIGH‚ hence Industry attractiveness is LOW Bargaining power of suppliers
