Just because the volume is constant in that tiny chamber doesn't mean the pressure will stay the same. Right? Essentially, an explosion is happening in that chamber, and I am assuming that the pressure is going to increase. Is that pressure change accounted for in the enthalpy? It seems like it...
I am going to define these things as I understand them. Please correct/refine them as necessary.
A bomb calorimeter is a small volume capsule within a tank of water. A reaction is carried out within this small capsule and the heat evolved is transferred to the water and the heat change of the...
I find it funny how along with everyone's opinion they have to insert the declaration that they themselves are "good enough" to be in the organization they are frowning upon. Is a high test score required to have a valid opinion on the matter?
It sounds to me like we all have our own form of...
I'm laying in bed saturday morning cruising the internet and I started reading Mr. Robin Parsons's old posts and I did a quick google search. Here is his new blog.

The whale was killed by Alaskan Indians. As far as I know it wasn't those Indians that made whales near exstinct in the first place. This happened with the bald eagle as well. The world was used and abused around them and now all of the sudden they are the criminals..? Same story for Africa...
I have had the same problems. Having a job or mandatory appointment seems like one of the only ways to get myself out of bed. A couple of weeks ago when I was able to set my own work hours, I would stay in bed until 11-12 and it definitely made me feel like a pile of crap. I did try having my...

Who says that life is limited to beings that exhibit characteristics that we have knowledge of. For all we know, the mechanism of "life" could be realized through means other than "earthlike" conceptions. I'm sure that in certain circumstances certain compounds or energy variations could fulfill...
Ha, well basically my intuition was right, because things paced up A LOT, and A LOT faster than even my hopeful 20 year old male mind could imagine. Anyways, it was her who made the move (but apparently according to her I made the move) and as of now things stand mutually known as "roommates...
I am trying to categorize energy by breaking it into two forms... Please critique this and tell me if/where I am in lack of understanding.
The first form is actualized energy. Actualized energy would be energy that is in its active form; for example, light. This energy is in the act of...
That's the problem, I moved in just over a month ago and the lease is a YEAR. I think the penalty for breaking the lease is a couple hundred dollars plus the time it takes them to find a new roommate. On the whole though, I couldn't picture a better living situation (besides the expressed...

I recently moved from a house with two guys to a house with two girls. I moved out for space reasons but also because I didnt like my old roommates anymore. I found these girls through a flyer on campus and I knew there would be tension the first time I met them. They are both very...
