    P2O5 at -50 °C to UV radiation and only observed emission in the visible region of the spectrum. They finally concluded that the visible emission from oxidising phosphorus was because of the excitation of the pentoxide by UV radiation emitted as a result of the oxidation. Petrikaln falsified the theory put forwarded by Emelèus and Purcell and demonstrated that P2O5 did not absorb in the UV region in its highly purified form. The visible emission observed by Emelèus and Purcell was because of sample

Electric cars are vehicles that use electricity to be powered and create zero tailpipe emissions. Electric cars have recently become a controversial topic ever since the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 was enacted. In the US, the first successful electric car was built in 1891 by William Morrison. This created a spark of interest in electric cars all over the US that encouraged

This tax was the first to be imposed in North America and was revenue-neutral (Murray and Rivers, page 3). Due to its myriad of benefits, the carbon tax was favored by many and did has not disappointed; not only have greenhouse gas emissions dropped, but business have grown tremendously, and other energy sectors

    not be punishing companies for producing too much pollution, but rewarding companies for producing much less. In this way, the market for carbon emissions will eventually disappear and naturally profit-seeking companies will aim to pursue activities, hunt for new strategies, and invest in infrastructure and equipment that result in lower carbon emissions. Beyond the simple reward proposition, however, greener policies often result in higher long term profitability for companies nonetheless. Environmental

    The policy analysis, The Design and Implementation of Policies to Protect Low-Income Households under a Carbon Tax, discusses the possible implementation and ramifications of a climate rebate as a part of carbon tax legislation. More specifically, how this rebate would safeguard low- and moderate-income families or individuals from a reduction in disposable income they would incur from larger energy charges due to a carbon tax. It is recommended that a three-pronged delivery mechanism be applied

Based on the scale readings on the spectrometer and the Balmer-Rydberg formula, their wavelengths and percent error were able to be extrapolated. Based on the literature values, the cereal box spectrometer proved its value as a decently accurate spectrometer. Introduction: Every element
