Have you ever wondered what reality really is? People are always saying ‘snap back to reality’ but what does reality really mean. If you put it into perspective, no one can fully explain what it is, just like describing a colour without naming it or explaining the difference between left and right. Reality means different things to different people, but today I’m here to tell you about two specific groups of people who, I believe, have two very intriguing opinions on reality. Good morning/ afternoon
Leonardo Da Vinci was born near Florence, Italy in 1452 to a father who failed to raise him until he was approaching adolescence. His passion for the arts began at an early age as he apprenticed for a local artisan at the age of eighteen, but his interest in science and mathematics started to lead him astray from his artistic interest. Throughout the rest of his life a trend of unfinished artwork is noticed as well as a disposition towards the modern sciences of life instead of his highly coveted
Riddick as a character is bad he has a code of conduct that makes him evil but gives him qualities that some would consider good. Through the movie he has chances to do good things but he considers himself a loner and there for doesn't care about anyone else. At moments he could be described as a psychopath with no emotional grief who likes to see others suffer or at least enjoys messing with people before killing them in horrible and sudden ways. Always one step ahead of his opponent, Riddick constantly
Leonardo da Vinci is a very famous painter, not just for his artwork but his inventions too. He was born April 15, 1452. Leonardo spent the first 5 years of his life living with his mother. After that, he lived with his father. His father married many women. Many also died. He also had many children. Leonardo had around 12 step-siblings. Leonardo received an unofficial education, where he studied Latin, Geometry, and Mathematics. When Leonardo was 14 he was apprenticed to the artist Andrea di Cione
PSED Leonardo is a playful and loving boy. At the beginning of the year, he used to come in grumpy and it took him a while to adapt; however, as time went by, he managed to overcome this. Now, he always comes in very happy and excited. Leonardo has established positive relationships with both his teachers and classmates. He is really affectionate and enjoys giving hugs and kisses to the people he is fond of. He has formed a special friendship with Alejandro, Ana Karina and Jerónimo. They love to
“La Noche Boca Arriba” by Julio Cortázar and the film Pan’s Labyrinth by Guillermo del Toro both use magical realism as a vehicle to present the impact of traumatic events in a person's perspective of life itself. In Pan's Labyrinth, The film uses enigmatic, complex, characters with a background of trauma to make the viewer question the film's ambiguous ending. Much like Julio Cortazar's story. The main character's lives are both dramatically transformed, Blurring the lines between reality and fantasy
Crimson Peak Crimson Peak is an American gothic romance/horror movie that came out in October of 2015. It was written and directed by Guillermo del Toro — whom is famous for producing other American movies such as: Hellboy, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, Pacific Rim, Mama, and many more. Toro has always loved monsters, he considered them to “symbolize great power.” His new movie, Crimson Peak is “ about a house that has a memory and induces horror” (Biography.) A ghastly warning from a mother should
owning other businesses. He sold alcohol which was illegal to do during this time period. Joe Bonanno had a huge impact on society. However, he also had many problems with his underground businesses. Joe Bonanno was born in Castellammare del Golfo, Italy, on January 18, 1905 and he first came to the United States in 1908. His real name is Giuseppe Bonanno. He was born into a very dominant Sicilian family. His father's name was Salvatore Bonanno. He moved into a Brooklyn neighborhood
of matter, as each element and compound has a unique density connected with it. Density defined in a qualitative manner as the measure of the relative "heaviness" of objects with a constant volume. For gases the density may amount with the number of gas molecules in a constant volume. Helium balloon: Compare the behavior of helium filled balloon with that of an air filled balloon. Even taking into account the weight of the rubber balloon, the helium balloon floats on the air and is less dense than
pressure exerted by a particular gas are highly dependent on one another. This is explained by several Gas Laws. Boyle’s Law states that when the temperature is kept constant, pressure of gas is inversely proportional to the volume. Relating this principle to molar volume, the higher the pressure, the smaller the volume the gas particles occupies. When the volume of the container enclosing the gas is reduced, there are more gas particles per unit volume. The gas particles collide with each other
What is fractional distillation? Fractional distillation is a method of separating miscible liquids using heat. This technique is used for the separation of liquids which dissolve in each other. Several simple distillations are completed during fractional distillation using only one apparatus. During the process a mixture is separated into several parts called fractions. Mixtures contain different substance with different boiling points, the differences in boiling points is the main reason fractional
THE MPEMBA EFFECT Erin Splaine Deerfield School Grade 8 Abstract The reason for this experiment was to find a faster way to freeze water by simply changing the temperature. The way this was accomplished was by heating an amount of water while leaving an equivalent amount at room temperature, then freezing both amounts of water and determining which freezes first. The heated water ended up freezing completely first, even though the cooler water started to freeze first. These findings tell us that
Abstract— “An explanation for why hot water will sometime freeze more rapidly than cold water is offered. Two specimens of water from the same source will often have different spontaneous freezing temperatures; that is, the temperature at which freezing begins. When both specimens supercool and the spontaneous freezing temperature of the hot water is higher than that of the cold water, then the hot water will usually freeze first, if all other conditions are equal and remain so during cooling. The
Chapter -1: OBJECTIVE the more general When designing a small temperature control system, the best choice for a refrigerator/heater element is often a thermoelectric cooler (TEC). The operation of these devices is based on the Peltier effect, which was discovered in 1834 by Jean Peltier. When an electrical current is passed through the junction of two dissimilar metals (Figure 1), heat is also transferred across the junction. To pump heat, a thermoelectric cooler can require a significant amount
Synopsis This experiment is the determination of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) content in toothpaste with the use of back titration while demonstrating quantitative transfer of solids and liquids. A accurately weighed quantity of toothpaste was dissolved in excess volumes of HCl. This solution is then titrated with NaOH to find the volume of the excess HCl. The volume of HCl reacted, which is found by substracting the volume of given HCl with the volume of excess HCl reacted, can be further manipulated
INTRODUCTION The objective in this experiment is to better understand why liquids evaporate at different rates. In doing so, investigation of the factors that determine the intensity of the intermolecular forces by the rate of evaporation must be obtained in the following seven liquids: methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, water, pentane, and acetone. Intermolecular forces are forces that exist between molecules whereas intramolecular forces are the forces that hold atoms together within a molecule
We can compare the boiling water or large pressure cooker to the massive pressure that is placed on the geyser’s plumbing system (Atteberry 2009). The water in the system reaches an unbelievably high temperature before the water starts to boil. The magma at the base of the surface moves heat through the system causing more energy to become trapped in the water (Atteberry 2009). At some point, the water will reach the boiling point and becomes chaotic. The chaos pushes a small amount of water to the
Research question: In a distillation lab, how do we calculate the number of moles of two pure liquid substances in the initial mixture, distillate samples, and the final mixture? Distillation is a process widely used in chemical research and industrial production. If we need to purify a liquid or extract a liquid substance form another, distillation can be used. Distillation works because different liquids have different boiling points. However, when a mixture is distillated, the vapor does not
Fractional Distillation Kaisha Butz Lab Partner: Jenna Knafo Instructor: Dr. Beatrix Aukszi LA: Paige Swalley 09/23/2014 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to fractionally distill a hexane/toluene mixture and to analyze the fractions. It is hypothesized that the first fraction will contain only hexane, the second a mixture of both, and the third just toluene. In order to separate the toluene and the hexane a Hickman still set-up was used. Once the mixture was distilled into
In the lab, “Properties of Hydrates,” the purpose was to compare the properties of several well observable hydrates and to determine if dehydration is a reversible or irreversible change. The lab consisted of attaining a pea-size sample of each compound, burning it over a bunsen burner, and comparing the starting mass and the mass lost after the combustion. These results are important to be able to identify a variety of different chemicals that contain water molecules as part of their crystalline
