Until mid-January in 1973 the island of Heimaey was considered to be volcanically inactive. The last known eruption of Helgafell was inferred to be 5000 – 6000 years ago. (Bullard, 1977) there was no real

A long time ago there was a forest untouched by man. In this forest the animals were enjoying winter and the snow it brings. The children played for hours sliding and catching flakes on their tongues, but soon it grew much to cold and they didn't know what to do to get warm. The animals decided they must go to the Kijamub Ka'ong, the Great One, and request him to kill the spirit and make the forest warm again. They didn't know who to send though. They decided to ask the majestic Rainbow crow if she

The Ka and Molar Mass of a Monoprotic Weak Acid Chemistry Lab 152 Professor: James Giles November 7, 2012 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the pKa, Ka, and molar mass of an unknown acid (#14). The pKa was found to be 3.88, the Ka was found to be 1.318 x 10 -4, and the molar mass was found to be 171.9 g/mol. Introduction Acids differ considerable as to their strength.
