13. There is a very large difference between methanol and ethane in their boiling points despite their similarity in molar mass. Boiling points do not depend on the molar mass, instead it depends on the hydrogen bond. Methanol is an alcohol therefore it has hydrogen bonds, meaning that it will also obtain a high boiling point. Ethane is a gas therefore does not obtain hydrogen bonds which results in having a low boiling point. 14. a) The space elevator concept suggests that we must consider the cable’s material and design in order for the elevator to withstand the tension caused its own weight. That being said the cable is expected to be made out of strong and durable material designed in a specific way where the cable can hold the weight
1-Propanol is in the middle with a boiling point of 97oC. The molecule is like propionic acid because the molecule also has a hydrogen bond (O-H) but, it differs because the second carbon on 1-propanol contains a non-polar covalent bond (Van der Waals forces) instead of dipole interactions. 1-propanol also contains a strand of hydrocarbons which increases Van der Waals forces so to larger surface area. Lastly propionaldehyde has a boiling point of 48oC because it does not contain any hydrogen bonding. The only intermolecular interactions in propionaldehyde are dipole forces and Van der Waals
Built by the Otis Elevator Company, the elevator functions with weights and by hand-pulled ropes, no electricity is needed.
fewest electrons, lowest boiling point. butane has more surface area in the liquid phase so more
Most Americans this day and age has been tempted by the idea of unfaithfulness in a relationship. Whether that relationship was a marriage or a dating one, being unfaithful is certainly a topic that has to be dealt with. In Edith Wharton's, Ethan Frome, the main character of Ethan is faced with this decision. Ethan can be described as self-absorbed, gullible, and impulsive. These characteristics play a very important role in his decision. Despite these characteristics Ethan’s decision is not an easy one, because whatever he decides will forever affect him and the people around him lives forever.
Finding a place to put the elevator and finding material strong enough to support the elevator are two disadvantage that would cause the elevator to fail. The place to put the space elevator is one of the biggest problem in building it. There are specific conditions a space elevator would need to be situated in. A place where there is no extreme weather and natural disasters. The platform would have to be somewhere in the ocean close to the equator (Aravind 93). The reason why in the ocean is because there are less natural disasters and cases of extreme weather in the ocean than on land (Castillo et al.). Since, the platform
The weight of societal expectations is one carried by all individuals. Children, however, are often influenced to a lesser extent by these binds due to the innocent lens through which they view the world. The short story "Pigs Can't Fly" follows the experiences of a young boy named Arjie, as he tries to find his place in a world, stuck in between a harsh limbo between fantasy and reality. The author's use of symbolism, and metaphors emphasizes the Arjie's perspective of the world and how his youthful innocence hides the expectations of a grown up world bound by expectations. The author further emphasizes this by using a first person point of view, placing the reader in the shoes of Arjie, and the setting of the passage to suggest that the innocent lens in which children see the world shields them from the perceptions of those around them.
It wouldn’t be an unknown fact that America is greatly populated by the Hispanic culture. Whether that be a mix of European and Hispanic races, there is no doubt that there is a strong Latino presence in the United States. Because of immigration in the 1800’s, and the overrun of the European and Hispanic countries onto American soil, thick cultural history was buried into the American melting pot. And though both European and Hispanic cultures came into America, Hispanics gravitated toward the west coast, because of its vicinity to the Mexican border. Their culture is greatly represented in America through their art, their identity, and their relationships with others in places like Texas, California, and Nevada.
Unlike ethane and ethylene adsorption which decreases with pore volume, the augmentation of pore size from IRMOF-1 to IRMOF-2 results in a increase in propylene and propane uptakeTotally by increasing pore volume in IRMOF-2, propylene and propane uptake be very higher than IRMOF-1 increasing pore volume from IRMOF-2 to IRMOF-3 and IRMOF-4 caused propylene and propane uptakes become
It is shaped in a way to transfer weight to the towers and anchors with its tension (O'Connor, 1971, p. 372). Cables are made of high strength wires spirally bound to form a rope (O'Connor, 1971, p. 372). Vertical cable suspenders that are fastened to the main cables hang the actual roadway. Stiffening girders and trusses are along the side of the bridge to distribute concentrated loads and help to keep the motion of the bridge at a minimum (Troitsky, 1994, p115).
With the current technology mankind possesses, it isn’t feasible to build a space elevator, but scientists are making new discoveries concerning the cables and their ability to withstand forces that might just be happening to bring the elevator to pieces. Most recently carbon nanotubes were found to be the most sturdiest and strongest material in terms of elasticity and tensile (tether) strength, however, according to Keith Henson, a technologist and engineer whose written about space tech for about 4 decades, explains that “No current material exists with
The advantage of this gripping system over the tape is that it doesn't lose its stickiness over time the way tape does. The researchers explained that this system should work well in all environments, including the extreme conditions in the outer space. The gripping system developed by JPL team will be able to withstand extreme pressures, temperatures, and
What material should the extension ladder be made of? Remember that if the work you do involves electricity, you should choose a fiberglass ladder, as this material does not conduct electricity, it will keep you safe and isolated from electrical
Since the Chinese culture was the first to introduce the ways of Buddhism to the Japanese culture there are many similarities in their belief system. The concept and affluent beliefs of Buddhism is evidently demonstrated in the arts of both the Chinese and Japanese culture. Both cultures demonstrate great Buddhism influences within their arts, meanwhile they still keep up their own cultural identities. Similarities within cultures not so long after the development of Buddhism did the missionaries from India begin to spread the religion into North China. Buddhism was introduced to China from India along the Silk Road ads many Buddhist monks were on the path spreading the newfound knowledge of enlightenment.
Cars and gasoline are complements. Complements are pairs of goods that are used together. When the price of gasoline increase, demand oil based cars decrease. When the price of cars decrease, the demand oil increase. For example, oil crisis occurred in the United State in 2008 because of unstable economic such as soaring Chinese economic and elected new President in the United State. Furthermore, increasing unemployment and crashing stocks were dependent upon the oil crisis. Consequently, the price of gasoline increased, demand oil based cars decreased in the U.S. at that time. After this crisis, General Motors Company declared bankrupt in 2009. Detroit is one of the famous car industrial districts also filed for bankruptcy.
1-Pentanol has a boiling point of about 138C which is much greater than the Pentanal with 102C which caused by having OH polar group and it also allows 1-Pentanol to form hydrogen bonds with water, therefore increasing its intermolecular forces and eventually creating a high boiling point.
