distinguishing similarities and differences among atoms prompted scientists to devise a way of arranging the elements. Relationships were discerned more readily among the compounds than among the elements; thus, the classification of elements lagged many years behind the classification of compounds. Development of the Periodic Table It was in 1817 when Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner showed that the atomic weight of strontium lies midway between those of calcium and barium. Some years later

A closer look reveals that marijuana should not be legalized for medical use, because young people are given mixed signals about drugs, other drugs can be used that are easier to regulate, and there are more harmful side effects. Marijuana is one of the

lulls”. The government has used science to come up with a list of narcotics and classified them based on several factors and this paper is intended to cover those factors as well as how the law uses forensics to find the evidence needed to proceed within a court of law. One of the first things a court of law has to use is the knowledge of a drugs ability to cause dependency. This means that a person cannot function in a normal manner without the use of the drug and to go without the drug causing

that the use of scanning would be able to demonstrate imagery. It would take longer to determine how big the angle is when they are further apart because you scan the clock more. So, when visualizing the difference between 4:10 and 9:23, it would take longer to visualize 9:23 than 4:10. This additional time shows that there must be some kind of image that is being referred to. b. The symbolic distance effect occurs when people are

Medical GDGB15 Workplace violence 1. Definitions of work place violence There is No single, uniform definition for workplace violence so far exists.

Force & Motion The First Law: Force and Inertia Object remains at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by unbalanced force. Object in motion will continue at constant speed and motion unless acted upon by unbalanced force. Force is an action that can change motion. A force is what we call a push or a pull, or any action that has the ability to change an object’s motion. Forces can be used to increase the speed of an object, decrease the speed of an object, or change the direction
