    The fundamental principles, the concepts of spatiality, temporality, organizational structure, and health effects and outcomes of environmental toxicology are all correlated. From the way pollutants are transported from one environment to another to the ultimate impact the pollutant exposed to the system. I start off thinking of the overall idea environmental toxicology with a global picture and global environmental impacts and how it is correlated with everything. In the article “The Trajectory

    4 Results and Discussion 4.1 In-cylinder pressure The evolution of in-cylinder pressure during 4-engine speed is shown in Figure1a, b, c, & d. From the in-cylinder pressure trace, it can be seen that the addition of BA will retard ignition timing. The timing of peak combustion pressure is slightly retarded consequences, of BA adding. The pressure rise rate in the figure 1a and b shows that BA-containing fuels have a higher-pressure rise rate at speed1400 and 1800 to 10% BA. A relative higher-pressure

    by combustion into electrical energy. Once the hard resources are extracted and refined, they are ready for use. When combustion commences, the hydrocarbons present create energy. The heat used to burn the fossil fuels causes the molecules of carbon and hydrogen to react, which produces a large amount of energy. When they are exposed to heat, the hydrocarbon chain converts the heat energy from the fossil fuels to electrical energy or mechanical energy. Coal power stations use similar features. They

    An alcohol, aldehyde, ketone, ester, and ether are examples of the functional group. One of the functional group that tends not to think about is a plain old hydrogen. It is a functional group, but it is normally ignored. It is drawn sometimes, but often time in the structure, it will be left out. There is a reason for the fact that the Hydrogen is normally disregarded. That is because there are not many chemistries can be done with Hydrogen which is not an extremely reactive functional group. The

    One of Saturn’s moon, Titan, possess planetary conditions unique to the solar system. It has an incredibly thick and organically rich atmosphere and a vast number of different liquid conditions. The numerous ways in which its atmosphere and liquids interact results in the formation of a vast array of different organic and prebiotic molecules, making it an excellent location for the possible development of life, despite its frigid temperatures. Understanding how life could form on Titan would give

    Identifying Alkanes Abstract: In this experiment, three unknown alkanes were identified by observing their physical and chemical properties. Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons. The properties identified were qualitative observations, solubility, mass, fire test, boiling point, and volume, and density. Unknown one was identified as hexane, unknown two as pentane, and unknown three as heptane. The results were as unpredictable but understandable and the properties of the boiling points of the unknowns

    Thesis Statement: Electric vehicles have a huge impact on the environment and are much better performance wise than normal gasoline cars. People that drive electric vehicles are helping out the environment a lot, more than if they were driving a normal gasoline vehicle or even if they were driving a hybrid vehicle. Electric vehicles are still not 100% Eco friendly, but they are a lot better on the environment than a gasoline vehicles or a hybrid vehicles. As the technology in the electric cars becomes

    The Alternative Energy Source to Oil Introduction 1.0     “Renewable Energy” is the term used to describe those energy flows that occur naturally and repeatedly in the environment, e.g. from the sun, wind and the oceans, and from plants and the fall of water. It also refers to the energy available from wastes and to the emerging clean technology of fuel cells. There are wide ranges of renewable energy sources/technologies, varying in technical and commercial viability. These include:

    them (heavy distillates) are not very much useful as a fuel when compared to light distillates. So there is a need for subsequent conversion of heavy distillates to light distillates. This can be obtained by altering the molecular structure of hydrocarbons in heavy distillates. One of the ways of accomplishing this change is by ‘Cracking’, a process that breaks the high boiling point petroleum fractions into more useful products like gasoline, fuel oil, gas oils. Thermal Cracking is the process of
