Public utilities provide water‚ electricity‚ natural gas‚ telephone service‚ trash and other essentials. With the rise of the cellular phone the telephone utility has seen a decrease in use. Typically a public utility has a natural monopoly on the service it provides. It is more economically efficient to have only one business provide the service. When it comes to charging for the services

Chemical Equilibrium: Le Chatelier Principle By Sarah Ramos and Kristina Todorovic Chemistry 203 DEN Dr. Mohamed El-Maazawi Part A. Acid-Base Indicators Purpose In this part of the experiment‚ we will find a reagent that will shift the acid-base equilibrium reaction described by Equation (2) in one direction and then a second reagent that will cause the equilibrium position to shift back in the opposite direction. Introduction An acid–base indicator

Most people are not familiar with the concepts of mathematics and mathematizing. Once they hear any of these terms‚ they connect them to education. The next discussion will attempt to shed some light on these two concepts by defining mathematics as a language. First‚ it will define these two terms with examples. It will then point out various differences between mathematics and mathematizing while giving examples. Finally‚ it will elaborate the importance of both concepts to humans and how they have

This profession ranks in the top 10 most dangerous jobs in the country. My personal experience as a Utility Theft Investigator almost resulted in an electrocution. While investigating a case of utility theft I placed my hand inside an energized meter can causing an arch with my wedding ring; this could have resulted in a fatality. The following

Discuss whether marginal utility theory is a realistic piece of economic analysis in explaining consumer demand. [13marks] Marginal utility is the extra satisfaction gained from the consumption of an additional unit of a good or service. It can be specified as the change in total utility divided by the change in quantity. The concepts of market demand and law of demand often utilized marginal utility as the backbone‚ the theoretical basis. An example would be the demand curve‚ which is usually

Why study Mathematics? The main reason for studying mathematics to an advanced level is that it is interesting and enjoyable. People like its challenge‚ its clarity‚ and the fact that you know when you are right. The solution of a problem has an excitement and a satisfaction. You will find all these aspects in a university degree course. You should also be aware of the wide importance of Mathematics‚ and the way in which it is advancing at a spectacular rate. Mathematics is about pattern and structure;

makes effective mathematic teaching and learning? This issue had been debated for years by the educationists as old as the teaching itself. Excellent students’ performance in mathematics is in line with an effective mathematics teaching and learning in the classroom. As been highlighted by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics in the United States: “Students learn mathematics through the experiences that teachers provide. Thus‚ students’ understanding of mathematics‚ their ability to

The Principle of Market Equilibrium The Principle of Market Equilibrium is the proposition that markets always move toward equilibrium‚ a situation in which no opportunities for individuals to better off themselves remains. Specifically‚ a properly competitive market reaches equilibrium when a good or service has an equilibrium price tag‚ at which level the quantity demanded and supplied are balanced (called equilibrium quantity). In an economic graph‚ Market Equilibrium is illustrated by the cross

Equilibrium Kurt Wimmer’s film Equilibrium (2002) is set in color. It tells a story about how suppressing emotions eliminates war‚ and any books‚ art‚ or music is forbidden. Those who are caught being a sense offender has committed a crime punishable by death. The film demonstrates the true source of man’s inhumanity to man. The internal struggle within the characters throughout the film such as with the main character Cleric John Preston (Christian Bale)‚ contributes to the theme of the Truth of

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction CHM 152LL Section 33263 March 28‚ 2014 John Weide Abstract: The purpose if this experiment is to determine the equilibrium constant of an unknown alcohol. In this experiment unknown alcohol number three and unknown ester number three were used. The equilibrium constant was found by titrating a series of reactions containing H2O‚ HCl‚ and the unknown ester with only the last solution containing the unknown alcohol
