Chemistry Combustion Equation - How To Make Your Own

Chemistry Combustion Equation - How To Make Your OwnIn my third and final post in this series, I will give you a combustion chemistry equation. This equation will help you get more out of your chemistry experiments. There are many things that will affect the chemical reaction you put in, and this is why it is important to keep this in mind. So remember to keep this in mind as you experiment.First, think about how much burners you have, and how often you use them. There are two types of burners, hot and cold. Hot burners use more fuel to do the same job, but it also heats up faster than cold burners. Cold burners don't heat up as fast, but they don't last as long either. So you want to make sure you understand how many burners you have before you begin.Next, what is the composition of the mixture? Many times the composition of the mixture is important. For example, if you mix iron and oxygen to form iron sulfide, you will end up with iron sulfide. It is possible to find certain chemic al compositions in nature, such as iron oxides and iron sulfides. You may not know what they are, but you can check with a chemistry course to find out.After you have found the chemical composition, you should try it out. You should start by testing out the first mixture you created, to see how it reacts. Keep in mind that the reactions may not be even. It's possible that you have found a good chemical composition, but you did not know which ones were used to make the mixture. So make sure you know which ones you used, and what it does before you test out the other reactions.After you have found the chemical composition, and you have done some testing, you will want to combine it with the combustion equation. You will want to see if you get the same results. In other words, will the mixture react the same way that it did before, or did you get better results using one of the chemicals you found? You will want to see the answer to this question to get the best information possible.Fi nally, you will want to create a combustion equation using all the chemical components. Keep in mind that you need to use all the components you found, so you may find that the process is quite a bit more complex than this. But once you get the combustion equation right, you can use it to see how well the mixture reacts, and what results you get.Once you get the chemistry combustion equation right, you can now experiment with the different combinations you have found, and see what happens. You should keep in mind that it is not necessary to test out the chemical combinations yourself. Your instructor can help you find the right combinations, and then you can go ahead and test them out yourself.

English Vocabulary about Employment - Phrases You Need to Know

English Vocabulary about Employment - Phrases You Need to Know For many months now I have been reading articles about the so-called Gig economy  and jobs without really  knowing to what these articles were referring. If you are currently in the job market looking to change your job or in the process going through a job interview in an English speaking company this English vocabulary about employment might help you. The  Gig economy  concerns those jobs today in the internet age that are neither permanent  nor  secure  and where the contract is extremely flexible  if it exists at all. Such jobs would include people  working in McDonalds or people self-employed as delivery guys delivering your pizza or other take-away meal. The reports I have read suggest that in America over the next few years approximately 40% of  all jobs will be created in this Gig Economy.So instead of merely (just) being employed  or working, there is a very wide range of new words now  used to describe your employment. English Vocabulary about Employment TEMPORARY:  this refers to a limited period of time, approximately several weeks or months perhaps  covering for someone who is sick.PROJECT BASED:  Employed for a period of time until a project is completed and then you wait to see  what is offered or move on to the next project.FIXED TERM:  a period of work fixed by months or years. A two year term that is then re -negotiated.  They may well offer you an extension to the contract before the fixed period runs out.ZERO HOUR CONTRACT:  employed but no guarantee how many hours you will work each week. This is  typical of some jobs in McDonalds and other fast food chains. You might get 10 hours one week and  15 the next but this is at the discretion (choice) of the management.FREELANCE:  You do some work for someone and agree a fee or payment for the work done but you  work at your own pace and place and are not controlled by the company or individual you are  working for. A freelance journalist may write articles and stories for variou s newspapers and  networks and if they like the work they will pay for it but there is no commitment.OUTSOURCED:  A piece of work is needed. There are not the resources within a company to carry out  that work. It is given to somebody or person outside the company. This is referred to as outsourced. English Vocabulary about Employment - Infographic Enjoyed this infographic? Here’s what you can do next: FLEXITIME: flexible working hours, when you can alter your workday start and finish timesSHIFTWORK: a system in which   a working day is divided in set periods of time and different groups of workers perform their duties at different times of the day and night, for example, nurses, firefighters, etc.A DEAD END JOB: a job in which there is no chance of getting a promotion and build a successful career.BE SELF-EMPLOYED: not working for an employer but finding work for yourself or having your own businessWORK EXPERIENCE: a short period of time in which you a student temporarily works for an employer to gain experience, usually older pupils in schoolOVERTIME: extra time that your work after your usual working hours. Some companies still pay overtime but it is becoming a rarity for employees in the UKWORKING CONDITIONS: things that will affect the quality of your work (working hours, quality of your working space, sick pay, etc)EMPLOYEE ROSTER: a schedule with  a list of  employees, and a ssociated working times and/or responsibilities for a given time period, for example, week, month or seasonSKELETON STAFF: a minimum number of employees required to work in a company on days when most staff do not work, for example, Sundays or public holidays

Does your kid have all the back to school supplies he needs - ALOHA Mind Math

Does your kid have all the back to school supplies he needs Now that summers coming to an end, it’s time to start thinking about the back to school checklist. This means that it’s time to start putting together the back to school supplies. Depending on how old your kid is, you may need to send a slightly different set of items, but here are some of the school supplies that you absolutely cannot do without: A good backpack: The backpack you choose should be sturdy enough to hold all the items your kid needs to keep in it, but not so bulky that the weight of the pack, on its own, starts to weigh down the child. There are a lot of options available, and if you take your child along she can choose her favorite color too. Hygiene related:If your kid is old enough to open a bottle by herself, then a hand sanitizer is one of the first things to add to your child’s backpack. If you think your child may not be able to handle a bottle, look for sanitizing or anti-bacterial wipes that come in an easy to handle pack. It is important that we teach children how important it is to clean their hands at mealtimes, especially after they have spent time on the playground.

A good folder is necessary to bring back homework and any other required sheets of paper, so that these don’t get crumpled and lost in the recesses of the backpack. Writing supplies: A good sharpener is a must, though younger children may end up sharpening more than necessary this is a phase all parents must go through. Other than this, sharpened pencils, an eraser, a ruler and coloring supplies are the basic necessities, it would be a good idea to mark or label all of the above to reduce loss of such small items. In case of kindergarten school supplies, most of this may be supplied to your kid in class, so you need not pack as many items. A recent article in The Chronicle talked about how the amount and cost of school supplies has gone up in recent times. A lot of these may b e available at your local large stores where they offer a discount on school supplies at this time of the year. Do take your child along when you shop, as they slowly start understanding the value of things as they grow up. Our classes at Aloha are a great addition to what your child learns at school.

I am not a Teacher, but an Awakener

I am not a Teacher, but an Awakener I am not a teacher, but an awakener. -Robert Frost (1874-1963) These words belong to the great American poet Robert Lee Frost. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech. Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry. He was awarded the  Congressional Gold Medal in 1960 for his poetical works. On July 22, 1961, Frost was named Poet laureate of Vermont. Inspired by his mothers innovative ideas about education, and to augment his meager income as a poet, Robert Frost turned to teaching. During Frost’s nearly 50 years of teaching, he was able to influence his students because his approach focused on developing their ability to think critically and generate their own ideas.  Robert strove to be the type of teacher that gives you a little prod behind and you jump to the skies. Our tutors have the same  approach in teaching their own students as  Robert Frost. They developed their  unique tutoring styles. Each one is equipped with a range of interesting and effective tutoring techniques  that will help you succeed in your classes and reach your goals.

Is Breakfast the Most Important Meal of the Day - ALOHA Mind Math

Is Breakfast the Most Important Meal of the Day While the answer to this question might make for popular debate, there is no doubt about it in the case of school going children. It is definitely to the advantage of your child to have a filling and nutritious meal before starting their classes every morning. It should provide them the required energy to pay attention in school, or to take part in sports or gym activities. In the flurry of activities every morning with everyone rushing off to their workplace or school, it gets tough to plan a balanced and interesting meal every morning. Here are some easy ways that you can go about it: Minimize cooking time: Plan your elaborate cooked breakfasts for the weekends! Where schooldays are concerned, it should be something that you can put together in 10-15 minutes at the most. A boiled egg for example is quick to make and provides some essential protein. Plan items like sandwiches or salads that you could put together easily using pre-cooked or raw ingredients. Freeze, freeze, freeze: Choose items that freeze well, so that you could even prepare and freeze breakfasts for the week if needed. A lot of veggies like carrots, beans and peas take very well to freezing, and will provide the required nutrition punch to your child’s meal. Fruits can be quick to prepare and provide all the color you need! Use colors and fun shapes: If your kids complain that meals are getting boring or repetitive, make small changes by using new ingredients that provide color. You could also try cutting out patterns or funny faces to make even the most mundane sandwiches look more interesting. Not really a breakfast tip, but a note like this one is sure to bring a smile to your child’s face and provide them incentive to finish meal, don’t you think ;)?

What Makes a Good Chemistry Menu?

What Makes a Good Chemistry Menu?A good chemistry menu offers more than a delicious food choice. It can give the perfect environment for learning to communicate effectively and in turn, make that communication goes much further.One of the first things to think about when planning an interest chemistry menu is the type of study material. All this should be communicated to the student. Often the student will not even realize the chemistry topics they are being asked to take a course with them. It's important to ask questions before the assignment is even assigned to find out what specific information will be covered in the course.The last thing to consider is where the student needs to go for help or questions. This can become quite daunting if the student is working on a chemistry assignment alone. The college bookstores offer many tips on what book to read, what group of people to talk to, and how to find out if someone else knows about the subject.While a good chemistry theme can wo rk wonders, the preparation of the students and their peers needs to start with them having a solid background. If you have a younger student that is taking chemistry courses, it may be more difficult to get them involved in some type of group. If they feel like they have to stand out by trying to do well, they may be less interested in the subject.Often students are assigned a math, history, foreign language, history, science, and chemistry homework assignments. These must be met in order to have a successful course.The last factor to consider is keeping it simple for the teacher. Have them provide their own chemical name, not your students. Helping the students to make the choice and concepts accessible, and making sure there is enough time spent on their assignment, is critical. A good chemistry menu will have plenty of exercises and practice questions to help with that.Even if you are just teaching small group classes, interest in chemistry can open up great opportunities for co mmunication, as well as the science behind it. Good chemistry menus allow students to meet new people, as well as develop lifelong friendships.
