On the 9th of October, Robert Sheldon was found lying on the tainted red grass of Oak Park. The park was described to be “about two blocks square, with a fountain in the middle and a small swimming pool for little kids.” Police investigators ran through a body analysis showing Sheldon was stabbed by a switchblade around two-thirty in the morning. Hours later after the body was found, police went around asking Sheldon’s family and friends. Three kids, who are witnesses say Ponyboy Curtis and Johnny Cade were responsible.
Ionizing energy also increases as the elements go across the periods and also decreases when the elements go down the groups. The atomic radius does the opposite of electronegativity and ionization; it decreases as the elements go across the periods and increases when the elements go down the groups. The electronegativity increases as you go across the periods because the elements nucleus gains 1 more proton which means more protons more power to attract the electrons, the electronegativity decreases as you go down the groups because an extra shell is added every time this then causes an increase in nuclear charge due to more protons being added. This means that the nucleus is less able to attract electrons. Ionizing energy increases across a period because as the atoms radii is getting smaller the electrons get closer to the nucleus which creates a greater attraction for the electrons making it harder to remove them.
In a capitalist world, there are many opportunities to succeed, but an individual must be willing to work hard in order to ascend the social ladder. In Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich, she undergoes an experiment to see whether or not the average low-wage worker can get by in America. Ehrenreich claims that based on the wages that the low wage worker receives, he/she can not really get by and thus they don’t really have a way to get up out of poverty. However, the working poor do in fact have an opportunities to succeed, such as working up the corporate ladder from the bottom and saving money to build wealth, making Ehrenreich’s argument invalid.
Somalie Prak LIBS 4960 Dr. Katie Olivant Chemistry Chemistry is a study of fundamentals of inorganic chemistry. This course is designed to provide you with basic understanding of chemistry and prepare you for more advanced chemistry courses. One concept that I learned in this course was the Atomic Theory. This theory suggests that all matter is made up of tiny indivisible particles that are called atoms. Atoms can be defined as the basic unit of a chemical element or the basic building blocks of matter that make up everyday objects such as a chair, or a table.
Atoms DBQ Atoms make up every object , substance, and material we know of(O.I). An atom is the smallest particle an element can be divided into. An atom has a complex structure, and the knowledge we have of it has changed many times throughout history. This tiny maze of parts has helped us learn important ideas about the structure and study of microscopic particles(O.I).
Journal 4 Poetry are rhythmic words that possess the power to sing like music. Ron Wallace’s poem “Hardware” is a beautiful example on how a poem can sing and dance. Ron uses techniques like plosives, fricatives, and liquids to control the pacing of the stanzas in the poem. He is deliberate with the movements. A great moment in “Hardware is on stanzas 4-6 which says, “set screw and rasp, ratchet wrench, band saw, and ball pen hammer.”
The higher the element's atomic number, the further away the two outermost electrons are from the nucleus. The further away the electrons are from the nucleus, the weaker their bond is and they are easily taken away. The easier they are taken, a bigger reaction occurs
What are atoms? Well, atoms are the base of any chemical element. Atoms consist of in multiple things, in which these things scientists of the past have discovered, and they are so well known, poems and stories are made about them. In fact, the Periodic Table of Elements is made up of atoms. Atoms are the smallest bit of matter.
The smell of a Corpse Flower, Titan Arum, helps prevent it from being eaten, but despite this the plant is still very rare; according to the IUCN it’s officially “threatened. " It comes from the forests of Sumatra. It's not actually one big flower; it’s thousands upon thousands of little male and female flowers. These give out oils, while the center collects heat. A mature plant can weigh 200 pounds.
In the 1980s, during the apogee of the AIDS crisis, many conservatives came forward to blame homosexuals for the epidemic. For instance, according to Armstrong, Lam, and Chase, Kaposi’s sarcomas, alongside other diseases, composes a list of conditions that serves as a criterion for the diagnosis of AIDS. In fact, its relation to AIDS is so remarkable that it became a label; in a society that is divided by pre-conceived ideas of morality, it became a visual representation of HIV as punishment for homosexuality. However, in Angels in America: a Gay Fantasia on National Themes, Tony Kushner attributes a deeper meaning to the lesions caused by Kaposi’s sarcomas – from death sentence to change, and finally, to redemption. Through these lesions, the author symbolizes the paradox of AIDS in an American society that refuses to embrace minorities, and how its destructiveness has fortified the sense of community amongst homosexuals.
In the famous words of of Dr. Julius Robert Oppenheimer, “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” Oppenheimer was the creator of the atomic bomb. He was a normal smart man who ended up creating the most destructive weapon of the modern world. A weapon that can kill hundreds of thousands of people. Oppenheimer was born on April 22, 1904 in New York City.
Nowadays, twenty-first century has pushed the individuals to live in a period where life could be seen as a binary opposition such as stability and instability, or opportunity and threat, or freedom and restraint. Unfortunately, a rising percentage of the population started to experience a chronic deprivation which sometimes might go as far as below the basic needs for survival of a human being. This kind of group of people are considered to be a new growing social class known as ‘precariat’. The first half of the essay is going to examine the challenges and struggles of the precariat society using Barbara Ehrenreich’s case studies, while the second part will investigate whether those subjects are able to characterize that they are being
What is the evidence to support the structure of the atom? The commonly accepted picture of the atom that we use today was not theorised all at once, rather it was continually built upon by a number of physicists throughout the years. A recent, previously accepted model of the atom was devised by JJ Thompson. He theorised that the atom consisted of a number of negatively charged electrons embedded within a sea of positive charge which could all move around freely, thusly named, the “Plum Pudding Model”; owing to its aesthetic similarity to the dessert.
Saturn is the second largest planet and sixth number planet of our solar system. Saturn is a gas giant made up of hydrogen and helium. It is big enough to hold more than 760 Earths within it, and is second massive planet after Jupiter, roughly 95 times Earth 's mass. However, Saturn has the lowest density among all the planets of solar system .It spins faster than any other planet except Jupiter which help Saturn with its magnetic field which is about 578 times more powerful than Earth 's. Although Saturn has at least 62 moons but its largest moon, Titan, is slightly bigger than Mercury, and is the second-largest moon in the solar system after Jupiter 's moon Ganymede (our moon is fifth largest).Although it is the most interesting planet
The periodic table is a much more interesting concept than people give it credit for. Periodic means the repeating according to some pattern. The first periodic table is very different from the modern one. They are both very interestingly organized. The periodic table has the elements on them.
