The United States uses over 18 billion barrels of oil every day. This means in turn that a country with just 4.5% of the world's population, is using about 20% of the world's oil. The United States only produces 8 million barrels of oil per day, which is the foundation of the nation's great dependence on foreign oil. One of the largest uses of oil is for gasoline in cars, which can be completely gotten rid of as a whole, There are currently multiple alternatives to fuel cars as opposed to…

Where does most oil come from? Where does the least amount of oil come from? Oil and gas is in very many areas in the planet, but in some places there is lots more than others. Oil and gas comes from many areas in the planet, but in some places there is more than others. According to worldmap.harvard.edu,” Most gas and oil comes from Africa,Europe, Asia, and Russia. Also, America ,South America,and Canada have lots of oil and gas, but not as much as the other places.” In other words, The U.S. ,…

the capacity to combust in the company of basic substances such as ammonia or sodium cyanide. What is its structure? The structure of Hydrogen cyanide is H-C≡N. HCN is a linear molecule and has a triple bond between Carbon and Nitrogen which is strong whereas Hydrogen and Carbon are connected by a single bond making the bond weak. HCN as has a 180° angle. What are its physical properties? Molecular weight 27.0253 g/mol Molecular formula HCN Colour Colourless gas Odour Sweetish Taste…

Looking at the period table, there are many elements, but Magnesium is the one needed for or enzymes to function properly. In addition to this, Magnesium has other roles to play in one’s daily life. In fact, the element is the eighth most prominent in the earth’s crust, but it isn’t a free metal. Thankfully, there are numerous minerals in Magnesium. Two of the most common minerals are dolomite and magnesite. These minerals and the element itself can be discovered in sea water. Saying this, come…

Dr. Andrzeij Sygula Research Dr. Sygula research is on polycyclic hydrocarbons called buckybowls. Due to their non-planarity, these moleules resemble fragments of fullerene, hence the name buckybowl. The smallest buckybowl to date is coronnulene, a non-planar hydrocarbon made up of five overlapping 1, 3-cyclohexadiene rings figure 1. The synthesis of coronnulene in lab is very challenging primarily because of the stress associated with the non-plannar molecule. Dr. Sygula’s lab accidentally came…

The molecule butane was observed while its dihedral angle was changed in 60 degree increments from 0 degrees to 360. The dihedral angle that had the largest potential energy was at 0˚ and 360˚. This is because the molecule was in an eclipsed conformation, an orientation of the molecule that causes there to be a lot of potential energy because the two largest molecules are fighting space, making it unstable. The lowest potential energy and most stable conformation was seen at 180˚which is…

Paul said to love rightly and appropriately defined it, stating that love “does not [worry] over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, hopes all things, [and] endures all things” (1 Corinthians 13:6-7). As the Stoics would sacrifice their will to Nature, so too should we sacrifice our will to loving others properly and thus live in and through…

The incessant push for smaller class sizes is a result of extensive research conducted over various years. Research supports an overall positive impact, from additional attention for students by teacher that can lead to lower retention numbers, and more efficient special need referrals, to more active student participation and a higher morale due to a more efficient educational environment. It has been proven time and again that not all children, persons for that matter, have the ability to…

Paul’s final call of the church in Colossians 3:1-15 is witnessed in Colossians 3:14-15 which reads, “And above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.” Both love and thankfulness, but especially love, are some of Christ’s most prominent characteristics. 1 John 4:19 states, “We love because he first loved us.” (ESV 1 John 4:19) Again, we are taught to…

13 Going on 30 is a romantic comedy fantasy film, written by Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa, produced under the direction of Gary Winick – who is well known with this kind of theme, his other movie “Bride Wars” also got a big applause since it released. 13 Going on 30 was a successful production in 2004, both on DVD rental and box office, grossed over $90 millions just after a few weeks. The movie is a story of a 13 year old girl Jenna, who desperately want to become a “Thirty, Flirty, Thriving”…
