Living by Chemistry Review - Chapter 1 - Living Matter Part 1

Living by Chemistry Review - Chapter 1 - Living Matter Part 1The three words that come to mind when I think of Living by Chemistry are this: 'Neutrinos, Yes!' There is no doubting the fact that we will be in good hands in this book. Each of the three sections contains a lot of important information, including the news about an experiment done by Dr. John Thomas to use neutrinos to find alternative energy sources for people around the world.When you read the first part, you will see how the book is written so well and how the title is related to one of the many types of matter, known as an atom. We know that atoms are one of the most stable things in the world. In Living by Chemistry, one will discover the concepts of quantum mechanics that were explained and how the single particle was formed.However, the first part of the book begins with the statement: 'Contrary to all beliefs, we are not born like one of the particles.' Then he explained how an atom gets formed and what the physic ists and chemists did before the discovery of neutrinos. The three sections that contain living matter are the group of atoms, the subatomic particles and the colloids.When I read the section about colloids, I began to understand the living substances and how it became a problem for scientists when they discovered the existence of colloids. Colloids have the characteristics of both liquids and solids. Of course, the only way to distinguish between them is to find one liquid and another solid.These living substances include oils, gas, water, plasma, gases, solids. Molecules can be found in the molecular solids as well. These materials can be formed by the interaction of electrons with each other and others to form a substance.When these materials interact in chemical reactions, they may end up being found in very small amounts but the process is continuous. The process that produces these living substances was long believed to be impossible but now that we know of the existence of th ese materials, we can still hope to create a method to create such substances in the laboratory.The first part of the book does not dwell on the origin of the universe but on the essential roles of molecules in the creation of our world. The second part of the book focuses on the concept of the subatomic particles. It is possible that the little snippets of the third section, which will reveal the discovery of neutrinos, will make us curious to what else there is in this world.I would recommend this book for anyone who is interested in learning about living matter and all the possibilities that are possible. I especially recommend this book for those who love science and want to learn more about how the universe works. For me, I enjoyed the great story told in the beginning of the book and the interesting thought processes that came from the end of the chapter.

New Oxford Vice-Chancellor proposes US-style scholarship system

New Oxford Vice-Chancellor proposes US-style scholarship system In his first interview as the soon-to-be Oxford University Vice-Chancellor, Andrew Hamilton has outlined his desire for a US-style scholarship system to encourage gifted, financially strapped students to apply to the top universities. This is a bold move for someone who has yet to be installed in his post and is the latest spearhead in an on-going campaign to break the elitist perception of Oxford. Hamilton intends to campaign for a university funding system based on the US model, where majority or full scholarships are readily available to the poorest students. He described the current UK system as 'needs-blind', with even the most generous bursaries failing to meet student requirements. On a wider scale, Hamilton also remarked that any move to raise the current tuition fee cap (3,225) would have to be matched by a major expansion of financial support for students. However, Hamilton, formerly Provost of Yale, is not without his critics. The trend amongst Vice-Chancellors at the moment is to raise tuition fees at the next review, many of whom feel their institutions are not otherwise sustainable, rather than maintain the cap and expand support. When it comes to the US question, there is also a fear that introducing American-style scholarships will result in American-style university fees, which can be up to 31,000 a year. It is early days - and even Hamilton has said he can't do anything until he has settled into the post. Still, it will be interesting to see if his appointment can affect the way all universities approach fee structures in the UK.

A PDF Version of Physical Chemistry For the Chemical Sciences

A PDF Version of Physical Chemistry For the Chemical SciencesThere are hundreds of physics books out there for the general public, but not all of them teach the most basic physical chemistry for the chemical sciences. A book like this will help you become acquainted with the four major chemical elements, how they work, and what they do. These books also make it possible for you to get a feel for how the chemical sciences can be applied in your life.Chemistry is the study of the bonds that hold things together. They can also be broken down into groups. That's where the term 'bond' comes from. Basically, chemistry deals with the chemistry of matter. It has been studied since ancient times.The four major chemical elements in chemistry are oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and the heavy element carbon. These elements work together to create everything else that exists in the world. And everything that lives on the planet was formed from these four elements.There are also other elements that ar e considered part of the chemical elements, but they are not as important as the four major chemical elements. They include the lightest are 'electrons'.The equation that forms the foundation of chemistry is called the Boyle's equation. This is a general equation that has only two parts. It shows how electrons and their orbits interact with each other to form atoms. The two types of atoms that make up the four chemical elements compounds.When compound atoms interact with each other, the atoms tend to link together by force. For example, hydrogen atoms are close together, while sodium atoms are far apart. In this situation, the sodium atoms will pull the hydrogen atoms towards them because they have less mass. As a result, they do not have to go as far as the hydrogen atoms have to go.You can learn all about the chemistry that is necessary to understand the chemical elements. This can lead to a life of success when you understand the fundamental chemistry behind different substances.

Tips for Improving your Workplace Communication - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Tips for Improving your Workplace Communication - Introvert Whisperer Tips for Improving your Workplace Communication Effective communication is vital to both the overall efficiency and culture of the workplace. The state of these two things depends on a balance across four different types of communication: verbal (in-person) communication, non-verbal (body language and facial expressions), phone conversations, and written communication. The words we use and the messages we send are only one small part of the puzzle- the way we choose to send our message can make or break the effectiveness of communication. Lean on these tips to better understand the four types of workplace communication and how you can leverage them to your career advantage. Verbal Communication: Be Choosy about What You Say Online If you can help it, always choose to communicate in person. Being selective about what you say in person and what you feel you can say online for the sake of time will help to save a lot of confusion down the line. As the workplace becomes technologically dependent, communication via online chat, mobile phone or additional smart device is increasingly more tempting. Although pinging someone across the office can be more time-efficient, wires can be crossed and negative interpretations of intended messages can arise. There are many benefits of opting for traditional face-to-face communication within the workplace, including the ability to create a more engaging and collaborative environment, address sensitive situations in a concise and empathic way, or eliminating misinterpretations of tone that could otherwise arise through online interactions. Reserve this type of communication for collaborative meetings discussing broad themes or decisions regarding a project. Reserve online communication for small notifications about the projects progress or collaborative editing done to a document. Take advantage of a unified communications offering to sync all of your digital communications platforms. This will help improve the response rate and boost overall efficiency. Non-verbal Communication: Practice Empathy Sometimes the strongest messages we send aren’t the ones we’re actually saying. A study conducted by UCLA found that up to 93 percent of communication is determined as either effective or ineffective on the basis of nonverbal cues. Throw in the fact that nonverbal communication is personal the way an individual communicates through eye contact, gestures, or tone is based on preference, upbringing, or culture- and there can be a lot of potential for miscommunication. Practicing empathy is a great step when being more mindful about nonverbal communication in the workplace. Empathy is split into two parts: emotional and cognitive. Emotional empathy is the ability to feel what another person is feeling. Cognitive empathy is the ability to understand what another person is feeling, and this is specifically important in effective workplace communication. Being mindful of your cognitive empathy will allow you to recognize when a coworker is uncomfortable or upset and, using clues from your understanding of the situation in relation to their response, will guide you in seeking out a solution. A great way to practice cognitive empathy is through active listening, which utilizes eye contact, nodding, and facial expressions to convey that your coworker’s ideas are validated. Phone Conversations: Smile on The Phone If you have a love-hate relationship with the phone, you’re not alone- Yes, I love to text on it, but do I have to speak on it? Can’t our client just message me their questions? Phone calls can be a tricky form of workplace communication. It’s more immediate than an email, allowing an individual to hash out a situation more quickly. However, much like an email or an instant message, it strips away the face-to-face quality of communication that delivers important nonverbal cues needed to decipher the tone and intent of a message. It is still possible to convey a friendly disposition when delivering messages via phone. Smiling while on the phone may seem pointless as no one can see you, but this small change can convey a positive tone over the phone and even boost your mood! Studies suggest smiling triggers a positive feedback loop in your brain that releases mood-enhancing stimulants. Having a positive mood while communicating over the phone can help maintain a conversation void of tension. Additionally, being mindful of enunciation while on the phone will help avoid tension on the other end of the line, helping the recipient of your message understand your intentions clearly. Email: Prevent Them From Reading In-Between the Lines Written communication is by far the most dangerous, as it is the most easily misinterpreted. Whereas verbal communication has the help of nonverbal cues like body language or inflections to help convey the true meaning of a message, written forms like email or instant messaging has only words to rely on. The words you write represent your attitude, abilities, and attention to detail, so it is vital for your writing to accurately and concisely convey these as its permanent medium allows the recipient to reread, analyze, and reinterpret. The good news about written communication- you have time to write thoughtfully and edit before sending it. To prevent sending muddied messages that warrant your recipient to read too carefully into your intended meaning, follow eight-steps to mitigate risks and communicate effectively. Taking a moment to think critically about your audience will help you craft an email using language that won’t offend. Take extra precautions and send a draft to a trusted colleague to peer edit. It may seem silly to have someone monitor an email, but the additional eyes and five minutes may save you a lot of reputation management later on. Allow Your Communication to Advance Your Career Effective communication is not the only key to maintaining a positive workspace but also denotes a true leader. If you are entering the work sphere looking to climb the ladder in your career, mastering soft skills like communication will help set you apart from the rest of your workforce. A report published by iCMS Hiring Insights found that 94 percent of recruiting professionals believed an individual with strong soft skills position themselves for promotions. Even more surprising, an individual with strong soft skills will be more likely to receive a promotion over someone with more experience but weaker skills like communication. This is because 58 percent of employers feel soft skills are more important for higher leadership than in entry-level positions, encouraging them to promote an employee demonstrating these qualities in order to get the most out of their abilities.

Quadratic Equation Grapher Online Tutoring

Quadratic Equation Grapher Online Tutoring Quadratic equation is very common in algebra. Quadratic means square. The equation which has the highest degree for the variable as two is called a quadratic equation. So the degree of the polynomial for a quadratic equation is always 2. The general form of a quadratic equation is ax2 + b x + c = 0. Here x is the unknown variable and a. b. c are the constants. The sign of the variable a decides if the graph of the quadratic equation is upward or downward. The quadratic equation needs to be solved to graph it. Example 1: Graph the quadratic equation x2 + 4x + 4. Solution: Given here is the quadratic equation x2 + 4x + 4. The first step is to solve for the quadratic equation. The equation can be written as x2 + 2x + 2x + 4 Now factoring the common terms gives x(x + 2) + 2(x + 2) = 0. Hence (x + 2) (x + 2) = 0 Therefor x = 2 is the solution. Example 2: Graph the quadratic equation x2 + 5x + 6. Solution: Given here is the quadratic equation x2 + 5x + 6. The first step is to solve for the quadratic equation. The equation can be written as x2 + 3x + 2x + 6 Now factoring the common terms gives x(x + 3) + 2(x + 3) = 0. Hence (x + 3) (x + 2) = 0 Therefor x = -3, - 2 are the solutions. The graph of the quadratic equations is given below.
