Theater is thought to have started in the 6th century BC in Athens, as a form of classical entertainment (Goldhill 54). At this time, it was predominantly for entertainment, and also to create a catalogue of historical events, or depiction of mythology. This evolved into plays that were categorized as tragedy, comedy and drama, each in forms that we would readily recognize today, were all born out of that early tradition. However, over time, different countries adapted the western art form, to create formulas that more directly address their social concerns, or meet the social need for expression. In ...

Chromatography is the method for separating components from a mixture on the principle of the relative quantity of each element that is distributed between a moving fluid medium referred to as the mobile phase, and the immediate stationary phase. Chromatography is employed in the separation of various mixtures (Wixom and Charles, 103). It is used in the preparation of materials for purifying them. Chromatography has several uses in biological and chemical worlds. Chromatography is broadly applied in biochemical research to identify and separate chemicals or biological origin. This method is applied in the petroleum industry to determine and analyze ...

The Ninth Symphony by Beethoven appears to be one of the most popular and central pieces of art, particularly in the Western Music Industry. The magnificent composition of this piece by Beethoven is basically a symbol indicating the end of all symphonies. It appears that Beethoven’s intention was to reflect, mirror and signify significant values of the then Western society. The Ninth Symphony also creates a feeling of hope and fear for individuals that have a higher level of understanding of such 19th century musical composition. There were various symphonies performed in 1824; most of these performances were ...

Introduction

Reduction reactions are very important in chemistry as they are effective processes for synthesizing new compounds from existing ones. In organic chemistry, a compound is said to be reduced if it acquires new hydrogen. There are diverse reagents for carrying our reduction reactions. Two of these are sodium borohydride (NaBH4) and lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4) - the latter is a more powerful reducing agent compared to the former. In this experiment, NaBH4 was used to reduce p-Nitrobenzaldehyde to form p-Nitrobenzyl alcohol. NaBH4was used over LiAlH4 in this experiment, because LiAlH4 would also reduce the nitro group of the aldehyde.

If a fuel mixture can be represented by the general formula CxH2x, prove that the stoichiometric gravimetric air/fuel ratio is 14.8:1.

The combustion reaction for a given fuel mixture will look as follows:

CxH2x + 1.5x(O2 + 3.76N2) → xCO2 + xH2O + 1.5x*3.76N2 The molar ratio is 1.5x:1, to find the gravimetric ratio, the masses of the air and fuel should be found. This can be done by multiplying molar ratio with molar weights of the fuel and air. m(fuel) = 12*x + 2x*1 = 14x m(air) = 1.5x(16*2 + 3.76*14*2) = 1.5x*137.28 = 205.92x The gravimetric stoichiometric air/fuel ratio then is 205.92x:14x = 14.71:1 The dry exhaust gas analysis from an ...

Introduction

A discussion among the classical economists and the Keynesian economists continues on the government intervention in the free markets. According to the classical economists, the free market mechanism can develop solutions for the crisis in the market if there is no external influence on the markets. The Keynesian economy merely expresses that the free market economy carries the risk of generating crises and undesired deficit or surplus in the economy when the demand cannot clear the supply (Posner 234-252). The discussion on the government intervention is changing direction each time the world economy suffers from a global crisis becomes ...

Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution to yield 4-Bromoacetanilide

Introduction Halogenation is a common process in organic synthesis. It is used in industrial and research synthesis as halogenated compounds are used for numerous widely used goods, including plastics. The lab aimed to perform monohalogenation of acetanilide. The reaction is specific since it is performed without catalyst. The typical halogenation is realized in presence of Lewis acid. Halogens molecules are electrophilic, and do not actively react. In presence of Lewis acid, the interaction is rather active.2 The lab used catalyst-free halogenation. The acetanilide molecule contains the acylated amine. As a result, the electronic density is shifted towards the amine ...

When Federalists and Anti-Federalists were debating about the new U.S. Constitution, one of the most controversial issues was the balance of power between the national and state governments. In order give more power to the national government, Federalists had to take into account Anti-Federalists’ views and introduce three branches of power that would be empowered to control each other. James Madison, one of America’s founding fathers, wrote in The Federalist Papers that “power is of an encroaching natureit ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it.” (Cited in The Federalist Papers Project 19).
