ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using two tests: the glass tube test and the agar-water gel test. In the glass tube set-up, two cotton plugs soaked in two different substances (HCl and NH4OH) were inserted into the two ends of the glass tube. The substance with the lighter molecular weight value (NH4OH, M = 35.0459 g/mole) diffused at a faster rate (dAve = 25.8cm), resulting in the formation of a white ring around the glass closer to the side of the

water, plants, animals, and people. What makes up plants animals and people? The same thing that makes up everything else, matter. What is matter made of? Atoms. And atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons can be broken down even further into the quarks up, down, charm, strange, top, or bottom. What can quarks be broken down to? Theoretical matter aka empty space. How do these things work? Energy, pure energy. When you break it down everything comes down to either

how is he going to manage change? In the 1970s, to be successful you just needed a high school diploma, and then skip twenty or thirty years later people needed a bachelor’s degree. And finally jumping to the present to where none of these things matter and now a master’s degree is what people need to reach for. In my opinion, it’s a game like putting a dollar on the string. A person gets ever so close to grabbing the dollar to have it yanked farther away from their grasp. Never allowing the person

A philosopher, poet, politician, and visionary, Empedocles of Acragas developed radical new ideas about the nature of the universe. His philosophy of the four elements in the universe and the definition of matter as the various ratios of these elements foreshadowed later developments in atomic theory by philosophers such as Democritus of Abdera (c. 460–c. 370 B.C.). Empedocles was born in Acragas, Sicily. His father, Meto, was wealthy, and his grandfather, also named Empedocles, was renowned for

Actual Value is a MATTER THAT MATTERS this week. Unlike Perceived Value, Actual Value is not measured by your valuables, and it needs more than prayers because it is not a gift bestowed by providence on only a few rarely endowed individuals. Statistically, actual value determines perceived value, Jesus Christ said ‘for every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.’ There will be problem if people get different value (perceived

Matter is generally considered to be anything that has mass and volume. The volume is determined by the space in three dimensions that it occupies. The mass is determined by its rest mass (or invariant mass), which is measured by the acceleration a body has when a force is applied. The greater the mass, the slower the acceleration for the same force. Matter is thus a general term for the substance of which all observable physical objects consist. Typically, matter includes atoms and other particles that

Vincent Godwin Amy Baus WVSII 5/2/16 Worldview II Capstone Essay Does it really matter? That’s the question asked to be decoded in this essay. The simple answer would be yes. All things matter in this world. The sad truth is that some people believe however that not everything matters. That is the reason the world is not nor will not be perfect now or in the near future. In Worldview class, valuable things were learned in an effort to show us how such important issues are being overlooked

INTRODUCTION: MATTER AND MEASUREMENT The Study of Chemistry Chemistry: • is the study of properties of materials and changes that they undergo. • can be applied to all aspects of life. The Atomic and Molecular Perspective of Chemistry Chemistry involves the study of the properties and the behavior of matter. Matter: • is the physical material of the universe. • has mass. • occupies space. Examples of matter: ~100 elements
