Are iPads and tablets bad for young children? Tablet ownership has more than doubled in the past few years – and as many parents are finding‚ children are highly proficient at using them. But are these devices harmful to their development? Or do they encourage ’technological intelligence’? Paula Cocozza The Guardian‚ Wednesday 8 January 2014 12.59 EST Meet the experts: children often find tablets more instinctive than adults.

so-called post-PC era where tablets PCs are all set to take over computing world? One important element of the laptop design has stayed persistent during the past 20 years‚ the conventional flip lid‚ protecting the screen and providing a sturdy base for a the keyboard it’s the back-bone of any laptop. But with the emergence of the tablet market‚ advances in technology and changing materials this could be about to change. The rise of tablet PCs means laptops must adapt‚ while tablets and laptops are both

In most of The Epic Poem of Gilgamesh‚ the twelfth tablet does not exist in most of the epic. This section is not included in some translations and versions. The authors of this epic poem added this tablet to this poem‚ but the reason why is still not found. It does not keep up a correspondence with the rest of the poem and this tablet also disagrees with some events that are a main focus. In The Epic Poem of Gilgamesh Tablet XII‚ Gilgamesh drops a stick through a small hole in the floor of the

An Investigation into the Factors Affecting the Rate of the Reaction between Calcium Carbonate and Hydrochloric Acid A chemical reaction is the process by which atoms or groups of atoms are redistributed‚ resulting in a change in the molecular composition of substances. The reaction rate is how quickly a reaction occurs and this can be affected by four different factors: ¡¤ changing the surface area of any solids involved ¡¤ changing the concentration of reactants in solution ¡¤ changing the temperature
Premium Carbon dioxide Chemical reaction Calcium carbonate
Carbonates react with strong acids to give off carbon dioxide and water. Marble is calcium carbonate and thus behaves in the same way: CaCO3 (s) + 2HCL (aq)  CaCL2 (aq) + H2O (l) +CO2 (g) In this experiment‚ I am going to see if temperature affects the reaction rate between marble chips and hydrochloric acid by timing the release of carbon dioxide in the reaction. I predict the higher the temperature‚ the faster the reaction rate. This is due to the kinetic theory. The more heat
