Essays on Freezing

Introduction

The objective of this experiment is to study the effect of a solute on the freezing point of a solvent. When a solute is added to a pure solvent, the freezing point of the solvent is lowered as compared to its pure form. This decrease in freezing point of the solvent is known as “Freezing Point Depression”. A similar phenomenon occurs in the boiling of such solvents, but instead of decreasing, the boiling point is increased due to the addition of the solute. This phenomenon is known as “Boiling Point Elevation”. Such phenomena, including others, are known as colligative ...

Mike Mayo takes on Citigroup (A) and (B)

Do you agree with Mike Mayo’s concerns about the extent of Citigroup’s DTA’s? Why or why not? I agree with Mike Mayo’s concern about Citigroup’s Deferred Tax Assets (DTA’s). Citigroup’s DTA’s increased from $4.7 billion at the end of 2006 to $38 billion by the third quarter of 2009. Citigroup would use the huge DTA’s to shield future profits from taxation to a tune of $38 billion. However, the accounting rules require that a firm can only carry the DTA’s if it is reasonably probable that the firm would ...

Introduction

The sinking of the Titanic is one of the worst sea tragedies. The cause of the tragedy is believed to have been a collision with an iceberg in the near-freezing Atlantic Ocean, but forensic investigations revealed more flaws in the design of the ship. The ship was inadequately equipped with lifeboats and had initial design flaws which resulted in water flowing from one watertight compartment to another. Moreover, there were communication flaws which meant that distress calls could not be received quickly while other findings revealed that some of the structural components were too weak to sustain the freezing ...

Dante’s Inferno is a play that has a carefully worked out structure that gives the impression that there is specific punishment for particular crimes depending on the severity of the latter. From the outset, it is important to note that the vision of hell that the play illustrates causes the audience to perceive the trip to hell as a horrifying experience, especially when Dante creates the impression that every person has to undergo punishment because everyone is a sinner, one way or another. The structure that the play creates has nine circles with each with each representing different ...

Abstract

The impact of salt on melting of ice can be described as utilizing atomic progression recreations. The harmony the point of solidification melancholy saw in the recreations is in great concurrence with trial information. The dynamic parts of liquefying are examined as far as the trading of water atoms amongst ice and the fluid stage (Brique, 1967). The ice/fluid harmony is a profoundly dynamic procedure with the incessant trade of water particles amongst ice and the fluid stage. The parity is irritated when ice dissolves and the softening continues in two phases; the restraint of the relationship of water ...

Reproduction in the News

Introduction Science and technology are marching forward into the brave new world with increasing rapidity. The proverbial Moore’s Law, prophesying the doubling of the speed of computer chips every six months (Moore’s Law), remains true to this date. As a corollary, increased use of the computing power and consequent technology allows medical science to unravel mysteries hitherto opaque to man. The biggest mystery to man has always been the mystery of procreation. As with most things man did not understand to begin with, he gave procreation a divine status. Children were literally the gift of God. However, ...

Abstract

Every health organization has the goal of providing quality, safe, and cost-effective care to patients. Some safety issues reported in hospitals today question the role of the health sector in improving the health outcome of the community. Many hospitals record poor patient outcomes because of the inability of the management to plan duties and changes in shifts between nurses caring for patients in hospital wards. Poor inter-shift reports between registered nurses act as one of the most common problems threatening patients' safety and delivery of quality care in hospitals today. Technology plays a significant role in influencing communication between ...

I. Introduction Advances in recombinant DNA technology and bioinformatics-based data analysis have driven the explosion of structural biology in the last two decades (Kelly, Jess, and Price 119). This has resulted to the identification of at least 2000 proteins annually and a growing need in performing structural studies in these new proteins. The current trend involves the concern of analyzing protein structures close to its natural conditions (and other conditions) and of measuring their rates of structural changes, an essential factor in their biological functions. The technique of circular dichroism (CD) has gained an increasing popularity in addressing these ...

Introduction

Environmental adaptation is essential to the survival of any animal. In fact, this attribute helps organisms obtain nutrients, build homes, withstand extreme weather conditions, attach mates and enhance their safety (Nelson et al. 2008). With this in mind, it is worth appreciating the fact that polar and grizzly bears have different physical and behavioral characteristics due to environmental adaptation in spite of their species similarities. The polar bear is specially adapted to survive in the cold pole regions. Its body structure and genetic composition have substantially evolved to accommodate the low temperatures and harsh environmental conditions. Its behavioral attributes ...

War against Polio

Throughout the history of humanity, viral diseases have been with people, and for a very long time, medical scientists have sought various ways to stop and eliminate them. In the developed states, vaccines were produced to make humans immune to diseases such as rubella, mumps, measles and whooping cough. However, it was just once that any virus has been eliminated from its last defense in both the body of human and the wild and effectively treated completely. This virus was smallpox, which was totally eliminated outside high-security laboratories in 1977. From that day on, people have been free to inject ...

The photomorpogenesis research project at Clemson University is very interesting. Photomorphogenesis means light-mediated growth, and photomorphogenesis research looks at how the manipulation of light sources effects plants. This regulation of plant growth is independent of photosynthesis and it is controlled by the pigment phytochrome. Phytochrome exists in two forms, Pr and Pfr and has peak absorptions at 660nm and 730nm red-range light. It’s the conversion of the pigment between the two forms that ultimately influences the plant growth, the morphology, flowering, and germination.

The photomorphogenesis research program at Clemson University was founded in 1985. The initial research ...

Question 1

Remunerating the employees is of paramount importance for the company because it is a major force behind the diminishing morale. Even though, the company is experiencing decline returns, it is imperative for a company to address the issue of freezing of its employees’ benefits. More often than not, lack or little benefits to employees have been cited as a major factor contributing to employee low morale in many organizations (Lambert, Hogan, & Barton, 2002). Secondly, it is prudent for a company to start ensuring that there is competent leadership in the organization. Competent leadership listens to employees’ grievances and act to solve the ...

Difference between freshwater lakes and oceans in terms of the formation of ice

Ocean ice is found in Polar Regions. It covers an area of 25 million square kilometers. Ocean ice forms on the surface of the ocean. It grows and melts above oceans. During winter, ocean ice grows but melts during summer (Thompson & William 1). The occurrence of ocean ice has a direct influence on the global climate. Ocean ice has a bright surface that reflects most of the light that strikes it. The co sequence of this phenomenon is that areas that the ocean ice covers have low absorption of solar energy (Ilker 149). In this regard, the temperatures in the solar ...

I recently watched a documentary where scientists claimed they could create rain in the desert. I was skeptical at first. In my conception, it was not possible for man to make rain. I am very skeptical about the traditional folk tales in traditional communities that narrate of leaders who had the power to make rain. The scientists in today’s contemporary society stand a better chance of making compared to the traditional rainmakers. Even then, I reserved my skepticism about the possibility of artificially manipulating the clouds in order to create rain. It is after watching the entire documentary that I ...

“The Day After Tomorrow”, a feature US movie of 2004 directed by Roland Emmerich, was undoubtedly a commercial success. There have been many disaster movies before, but quite a few of its predecessors might have been compared to it in terms of computer effects and quasi realism. The general public liked the effect of the new Judgement Day, and the box office of ‘The Day After Tomorrow” has exceeded 550 million dollars worldwide, while the original budget was around 125 million. The filming took place in the total of 17 locations, including New York City (with a hefty amount of special effects), Los ...

Introduction

Science fiction and disaster films often must take dramatic liberties with science and truth in order to serve a greater narrative purpose; events are compressed, effects are exaggerated, and realism and physics are thrown out the window in order to provide greater drama and spectacle (Revkin, 2004). In the movie The Day After Tomorrow, directed by Roland Emmerich in 2004, the world is subjected to global disasters brought about by climate change. The effects are myriad; global cooling sets New York in a coating of ice and freezing temperatures, glaciers crack and separate, and a “superstorm” is said to cause rapid climate ...

Freezing eggs at a young age is a growing trend in the Western world. The procedure is costly, but women feel it gives them control over their fertility. According to Sarah Richards, women should feel empowered because of this ease (Knight, 2013). Women who are unsure about having families early in life should opt for this method of egg freezing. It is understandable that the costs of this procedure may not be affordable by many; therefore, a woman’s parents should bear some portion of this cost. They must view this as an investment to secure their daughters future. According to sources, ...

Retirement income in the United States (US) fundamentally comes from Social Security. More than a third of the elderly beneficiaries of Social Security rely almost entirely on it for their income (more than 90%), making up the total of two-thirds of them whose reliance on it accounts for more than half their income (Brossoie, 2010; NASI, 2014; Poterba, 2014). Having kept around 22 million Americans out of poverty, Social Security remains an integral program favorably viewed by many (Poterba, 2014). In fact, findings from a study gauging public opinion from different generations conducted by the National Academy of Social Insurance (NASI) ...

Certain experiences in one’s life can be counted as transformative experiences as they have greater meaning and impact on the future life of that person. One of such experiences in my life relates to a period when I had spent with my friends. I had always considered that seeking others’ help or suggestions for solving our problems was a sign of cowardice and weakness. When I was 20 years old, I had a chance to camp with my friends in the woods near my home city Ufa. We proceeded with the decision of camping expecting a favorable weather. Soon, contrary to ...

Fossils are used to refer to the traces or remnants of the past life. They are the remains of the animals, plants, organisms, or things that existed on the earth in the past. The activities of such beings can also be categorized as fossils. The term fossils means something which is obtained by the process of digging.

Eastern Saudi Arabia and Indiana State have significant geographical differences; hence the climate differences are evident. Excluding the western region, Saudi Arabia is mainly characterized by a desert climate (Zereini and Heinz 77). During the day, the country experiences high temperatures during the day and unexpected drop of the same during the night. Taking into consideration that it is a desert country, Saudi Arabia records minimal amount of rainfall annually. In fact, rainfall is most experienced in the Western Coast, and mainly between October and March, during which an average of about 300 millimeters are recorded (Zereini and Heinz 79). During ...

Freezing is a form of preservation in which the temperature of the product is reduced to below its actual freezing point. In this case, some of its water content changes its form into ice crystals. Freezing, as a form of preservation, slows down food decay through the hindering of the growth of microorganisms. As we all know, the less water or moisture content prevents the rapid growth of bacteria. The pattern on how freezing happens can be traced through the freezing curve. The first thing that happens is that the product cools until it reaches its freezing point then ice ...

It has been argued that an individual must first perceive an idea in order to materialize an object. Philosophers argue that an individual must perceive an idea before materializing the object. There is no reliable account that seems to interlink objects and ideas, as the representation list approach tends to provide . This made philosopher Berkeley to believe that objects and ideas are bound to be the atheism and skepticism. Even though thing are perceived in this manner, common sense provides that there exist only two important elements that are engaged in perception; this is what is perceived and ...

Introduction Throughout World War II, the Nazis carried out some of the most unthinkable and horrific experiments upon human beings, often citing science as a valid reason for their actions. As accounts of these experiments began to leak out prior to and throughout the Nuremberg Trials, they had a profound effect upon people’s comprehension of man’s insatiable curiosity and his inclination towards evil. Since there is hardly any precedent or ensuing studies conducted to support the results from these experiments, it has long been conjectured as to whether their findings should be admissible in modern publications or applications. ...
