Southern Hemisphere Magnetic Field
1,422 wordsJupiter, the largest of the Jovian planets, reigns supreme throughout the solar system. Named after the Roman god Jove, the ruler of Olympus; "Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun and is also the largest planet in the Earth's solar system. It is 318 times more massive than Earth and is two thirds of the planetary mass in the solar system. Jupiter's surface, unlike earth, is gaseous and not a solid. It is about 90 % hydrogen and 10 % helium with traces of methane, ammonia, water and rock. Jup...

Life On Mars Washington D C
1,018 wordsIf life ever evolved on any of the other planets, Mars is the likeliest candidate. After Earth, Mars is the planet with the most hospitable climate in the solar system. So hospitable that it may once have inhabited primitive, bacteria-like life. Outflow channels and other geologic features provide extensive evidence that billions of years ago liquid water flowed on the surface of Mars. Continuing changes is an accomplishment in modern American technology and it gives the world a step forward in ...

Nitrous Oxide Liquid Nitrogen
551 wordsNitrogen was isolated by the British physician Daniel Rutherford in 1772 and recognized as an elemental gas by the French chemist Antoine Laurent Lavoisier about 1776. Properties Nitrogen is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, nontoxic gas. It can be condensed into a colorless liquid, which can in turn be compressed into a colorless, crystalline solid. Nitrogen exists in two natural forms of isotopes, and four radioactive isotopes have been artificially prepared. Nitrogen melts at - 210. 01 C (- 3...

2,167 wordsAlternative Fuel Vehicles You Can Buy Today From the earliest days of the automotive industry alternative fuels have always competed with petroleum for powering vehicles. Nicholas Cugnot made the first self-powered road vehicle in 1769 with a steam engine, and the first gasoline automobile didn't appear until over 100 years later from Karl Benz. Through the late 19 th and early 20 th century steam and electric power remained strong contenders. The invention of the self-starter for gasoline engin...

War Effort Civil War
1,928 wordsThe political, economic, and military strength of the Union was much greater than that of the Confederacy. However, the war did last four years. The Confederacy proved itself resilient on many occasions. Throughout the war the tide constantly shifted, and with that, so did the political, economic, and military strength of either side. Although each side had its share of military successes, in the end, the superior Northern economy, centralized government and overwhelming manpower would eventuall...

Thin Layer Chromatography Drop Of The Mixture Plate
442 wordsChromatography is the method of separating chemical substances that makes uses of the relative rates at which they are adsorbed from a moving stream of gas or liquid on a stationary substance, which is usually a finely divided solid, a sheet of filter material, or a thin film of a liquid on the surface of a solid. It is a versatile method that can separate very complex mixtures even in the absence of detailed previous knowledge of the number, nature, or relative amounts of the individual substan...

Oil And Gas Earths Crust
1,469 wordsPetroleum also known as crude oil, naturally occurring oily is a bituminous liquid composed of organic chemicals. Petroleum means rock oil, from the Greek petros (rock) and oleum (oil). It occurs in the earth in liquid, gaseous or solid forms. The term is usually restricted to the liquid form, commonly called crude oil but as a technical term it also includes natural gas and the viscous or solid form known as bitumen. Petroleum is a complex mixture of organic liquids consisting of hydrocarbons (...

Cubic Meters Cubic Feet
1,214 wordsProduction: Although Helium is one of the most common elements in the universe it is a rare gas on earth. It exists in the atmosphere in such small quantities (less than five parts per million) that recovering it from the air is uneconomical. Helium is produced as a by-product of the refining of natural gas, which is carried out on a commercial scale in the USA and Poland. In these areas natural gas contains a relatively high concentration of Helium which has accumulated as a result of radioacti...

Make A Lava Lamp Make A Lava Alcohol
414 wordsThings you can use to make a Lava Lamp. There are many things you can use to make a Lava Lamp. Aside from wax and water, there are many other substances that you can use to make the lamp work in the same fashion. For example, you can use mineral oil as the lava and 90 % isopropyl alcohol mixed with 70 % isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) as the liquid inside the lamp. By mixing the two types of alcohol, you will create a perfect balance. The mineral oil will fall to the bottom in the 90 % alcoh...

Surface Of The Water Hydrogen Bonds
984 wordsWater is the most important substance in our evolution and our daily lives. Without water, life as we know it would not have been possible. This essay will examine the water molecule in order to ascertain how it brought about Earths thriving ecosystem and how important it is to us today. Each water molecule consists of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. The oxygen atom (or the apex of the water molecule) bears a slight electronegative charge while hydrogen possesses a more positive one 1 (f...

Liquid Crystal Natural Polymers Polymer
415 wordsPolymers are large molecules composed of smaller molecules called monomers. Monomers are produced and either grow together or are assembled to produce a single polymer. There are synthetic and natural polymers. Some examples of natural polymers would be wood, starches, fingernails, and hair. Synthetic polymers are usually referred to as plastics. Petroleum, is the primary monomer used to produce polymers. An English chemist named Alexander Parkes was the first scientist to produce the first synt...
