Absolute Value Graph Problems In this portfolio problem, I worked with absolute value, its function, properties, and applications to other graphs. Absolute value can be defined as the positive real number equal to a given real but disregarding its sign. In each graph the cyan colored function is the absolute value graph, and the lime green colored function is the original graph. It is apparent that there are no negatives in the absolute value graph. The cyan colored function is the absolute

“For a process in condensed system the value of [∂(∆G) / ∂T]p approaches zero asymptotically as the absolute zero is approached ” i.e. ∆G and ∆H curses meet each other slightly above absolute zero. & Run coinciding with each other up to absolute zero. This behavior is shown by full lines. The dotted line curve reveals that values of ∆G and ∆H become equal at absolute zero only. & Their

Chapter 5—Gases 5.1: Substances That Exist as Gases Air: 78% N2, 21% O2, 1% Other (such as CO2) Ionic compounds do not exist as gases at 25 degrees Celsius as well as 1 atm (due to strong electrostatic forces holding cations/anions together in an ionic solid). The stronger the attractions (intermolecular forces), the less likely the compound can exist as a gas at ordinary temperatures. The characteristics of gases include: assuming the volume/shape of their containers, most compressible

William Saroyan once said, “Good people are good because they’ve come to wisdom through failure”. This means as people fail overtime wisdom is gained by a realization of prudence, then one becomes virtuous. I agree because those who go through struggles usually learn from it and their wisdom expands. This is an accurate assessment and is evident in the novel “Hamlet” by Shakespeare. For the purpose, of revenge we see Hamlet the protagonist who takes advantage of his insanity, to get revenge on his

Amit Gorajia March 7, 2014 Our Diverse Biosphere Essay 2 Adapt or Perish Scientific studies show that the increase in temperature is responsible for roughly half of the total amount the sea level has risen in the past century. This raised concern for certain coastal regions that may have to endure more natural disasters such as floods and hurricanes. However, humans are not the only species that are affected by the increasing in temperature. One species that may be potentially affected greatly

nominal variable is not numeric and values are names or categories. Example: A nominal variable for gender would be female and male. D) A ratio scale is measured by equal-interval variable. An equal-interval variable has an absolute zero point on the ratio scale. An absolute zero point means there is an absence of the variable. Example: A number of cats an individual has. If one person has three and the other has six, you can say that they have three times the amount of that person. E) A continuous

Laboratory Exercise Two Reaction Enthalpies for Acid – Base Neutralization Reactions Goals 1. To measure the amount of heat released in acid-base neutralization reactions. 2. To determine the molar enthalpy change for each acid-base neutralization reaction. 3. To validate Hess’s Law using the experimental results. Background Information Acids and bases react together to produce a salt and water as shown in the following reaction. HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) This type of reaction is
