In the first part of the experiment, students will use observation to study the cause and effect of four different chemicals brought together and changed occurring. The four chemicals that will be looked closely at are Calcium Chloride (CaCl2), Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO3), Phenol Red Solution, and Deionized Water (H2O). The chemical changes students will mainly look for is if there is a change of color, heat and/or light generated, gas produced and precipitate formation. Applying these principles in a practical manner will be used to determine the underlying factors responsible for the particular observations.The second section of this experiment is carried out a series of controlled experiments to determine the cause of change in each...show more content...

Prior to starting the experimentation, students must wear their appropriate personal laboratory attire including, a lab coat, safety goggles, nonlatex gloves, and chemistry lab manual. After successfully conducting the experiment, students must empty contents in a waste disposal bin provided when all reactions are subsided. Students must clean plastic bag with a little water and dispose of it in a bag in the trash. To determine what combinations of chemicals are responsible for each observed changed, students may conduct a series of controlled experiments with the same quantities of chemicals. If chemicals are spilled on a student's body or caught on fire, the best method to put it down is he or she must go to the safety shower, take off their clothes entirely and rinse off the chemicals for at least 15 minutes as recommended by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). The same goes if chemicals get caught into the eyes or hands. Remember to carefully handle the chemicals in a cautious and efficient manner, and notify the instructor of any incidents.

Phenol red or water mixed with calcium chloride produced heat. It seems as though all calcium chloride needs is a liquid to increase in temperature. No, the controlled experiments became both hot and cold, and so did the overall reaction. For

Child violence is a topic which has exposed itself tremendously with both causes and effects; causes being, poor parenting, environment and exposure, and effects including depression, difficulties in school and criminal behavior. Most people try not to address poor parenting because it can be a very sensitive topic but, it is very important and lack of conversation or teaching can become an issue. We have all been somewhere and witness a child misbehaving and the parent not reprimanding their child. We have also heard stories of how a child may be being abused or witnessing abuse by a parent, guardian or loved one. A child being bullied or rough housing with siblings may also become an issue. Cursing and fighting around a child can...show more content...

This could lead to many lifelong problems; such as not continuing school, no job, poverty and ending in depression. Depression and anxiety are two distinct effects of child violence. Often times when a child has grown up witnessing or experiencing violence it affects them for a longtime; sometimes even into adulthood. Sometimes this affects a person socially; they may fine that they are often alone and do not feel like they fit in. Which in some causes can lead to depression. Children that grow up with violence also often deal with anxiety; they usually feel as though they are on edge and never really know what to expect from people or situations, which may also cause them to behave poorly. Criminal behavior can be categorized as another effect of child violence. A great deal of criminals, offenders or even people with some kind of criminal history are known to have been affected by violence or a child. Some of them have come from abusive environments, poor living and social environment, and not being taught well. As stated previously, being abused or witnessing abuses can cause a child to be violent, because it can be a learned habit. Not being taught well goes back to the parents. Some parents just do not discipline well. They may either be too firm or too lenient. Children that do not suffer consequences for poor behavior may feel they will never receive punishment and when they finally do it may be too late. Child violence has many different

None of us are strangers to the feeling of anxiety, after all we are all humans. Nervousness, worries, and unease over situations are a common thing for everyone. It might be public speaking, meeting a new person, or being surrounded by a crowd of strangers. These events aren't exactly thrilling to everyone but most of us get over it. However, when these uncomfortable feelings morphs into fear to an illness is when life starts becoming a nightmare. How can one live a normal life when even walking in public seems to bring up feelings of intense fear? This is especially in the case of those with social anxiety, a social phobia, in which sufferers describe their condition as intense and persistent often taking over their social life and professional life due to fear of rejection and disappointment. For people with social anxiety, activities that induces feelings of anxiety even for normal people, will be extremely stressful for them, completely overwhelming to the point of leading to a panic attack. Common symptoms include inhibition of speech, frequent slips of tongue, difficult breathing, and nausea (U.Penn). In extreme cases, it feels as if you are under surveillance at all times. When this occurs during childhood, without proper care, it can have lasting devastating consequence and effect that may continue into adult life. Those that live with this mental disorder, wishes to rid themselves of such liability by seeking help through therapies. Unfortunately, not everyone

Cause And Effect Essay On Climate Change

The Earth is warmer today by about two degrees Fahrenheit since 1880 when record keeping of the temperature began. That also includes the ocean waters. The warming is more over land and evident in the poles of the Arctic and Antarctica. Generally, the Earth varies in temperature from year to year by a fraction of a degree. A rise of two degrees is significant. These differences are shown by the rising global temperatures and warmer oceans. Climate change is a natural short term weather condition of variable temperatures, winds, and rainfalls. However over for decades and centuries, a pattern of weather changes may be apparent. These weather changes which affect the planet and its people are commonly called Climate Change. The effects of climate change are differences caused by changes in the weather. The emissions of carbon dioxide and sulfur gases are created by mankind with the use of fossil fuels. This has resulted in heat to amass in the Earth like a few hundred thousand atomic bombs detonating daily. It is known as the greenhouse effect and calledglobal warming. Global warming and climate change are words often used to mean the same thing (Ananth). If greenhouse gases remain high, then there could be a large temperature rise of up to eight degrees Fahrenheit. Global warming would cause drastic changes to Earth and If these gases elevate over time then the temperature rise could exceed 8 degrees Fahrenheit. A temperature rise like that would change the world and damage

Cause and Effect essay: A change in the way you deal with other people

Introduction The human civilization, from the beginning of the times, has been dictated by constant cultural and social changes. These cultural and social changes did not only have a significant on the lifestyles of human beings around the world, but it also effected on how people deal with one and other. It must be noted that human civilization across the globe has remained in the constant process of evolution and no matter what, this process of evolution could not be resisted and people have to surrender to change. The process of evolution became even more rapid in the post information technol.ogy era. This is because human life style not only became faster paced, but also easy and massive accessibility towards media and telecommunications resulted in greater exposure and awareness of human mind from a very young age. As a result the generation that belongs to the post modern era is found to be much more mentally smarter than its older counterparts (Shelden, Tracy & Brown, 2004). Due to these changes, significant changes were implicated on child development, teaching styles and general up bringing andof children along with family lifestyles and traditional ties all around the world.

An Essay on Cause and Effect

Pollution has become a prevalent issue worldwide and has begun to affect the air used to breathe, the soil used to grow food, and the water used to drink. All of these effects result in commonly occurring destruction of health and wildlife that one may have seen on the news or heard from peers. In order to live, one needs food, water, clothing, and shelter. If the water and food that society consumes gets contaminated, a major component of life has been eradicated, which can only have negative consequences. If more people are educated as to what effects the environment, the world has a chance to counteract the effects of pollution. The main causes of pollution are the burning of fossil fuels such as with car exhausts, littering as a result of societal norms and laziness, and factory waste as a result of lax waste regulation, and can result in mass destruction of the environment and catastrophic effects on the everyday lives of contemporary people.

The amount of factories and industries has grown immensely through the previous years which has resulted in an expansion in the consumption of petroleum products. Innovation has begun to increase and has promoted the expansion of the production of cars. As stated by the Air Quality Research Center, "Air pollution is one of the most dangerous environmental problems, causing many adverse health effects and responsible for 50,000 deaths in the U.S. each year" (Air Pollution and Health – Air Quality Research Center.).

Cause and Effect of Price Wars

When large sums of money are at stake, many companies bend and flex to their limits to guarantee defeat over the competition. Sometimes they take a loss in one area for a gain in another area. There is a cause for every action the company makes, and in return for their action there is an effect. Although the effect can sometimes be pre–determined, no one is really sure what the outcome is going to be until the time comes. There are millions of cars on the road today and they all require tires. When an owner replaces the tires on his or her vehicle, they can decide what make and model will be on the car. But when a buyer purchases a new car, they do not have the option of which tires they would...show more content...

They ran them at 90 miles per hour for 200 miles at and average temperature of 90 degrees, which is not exactly considered every day driving. The effect of these cheaper, lower quality tires was tread belt separation. This occurs when the tread of thetire peals away from the rest of the tire (http://archivesВ…В…В…. ) The effect of the tire separation caused many more problems. Firestone was forced to recall 6.5 million tires. The tires that were affected buy the recall were the Radial ATX, Radial AXT II, and some Wilderness AT tires. Only the versions of these tires that have "VD" at the beginning of the serial number are affected. These tires are found mainly on the Ford Explorer and theMercury Mountaineer. "We made some bad tires and we take full responsibility for those" said Firestone executive John Lampe (Naughton). The effect of these 6.5 million recalled tires is starting to show through. "We have seen an alarming number of serious accidents from rollovers of the Explorer after a tire failure" said Firestone's Lampe while arguing his defense in front of the supreme court. Evidence directly relates 103 deaths and 400 injuries to these tires. These statistics were based on 2226 consumer complaints. There are also over 600 deaths alone from the Explorer rolling over, but not all have been investigated to determine if the tires were the cause. Unfortunately the number of deaths and injuries is rising every day due to

Cause and effect is noting a relationship between actions or events such that one or more are the result of the other or others. Most things that happening in life have a cause and effect relationship. Almost everything you do is a cause and will have an effect, or most things you do is an effect of something that happened or what you done before your actions. An example of a cause and effect relationship is last year I was in the state tournament, and I was in the semi–finals. I ended up losing, and I was very angry with myself. I wanted to make it to the finals so bad, but me not making it made me stronger and it made me push myself for this season. It made me more confident and more determined. Most situations in every aspect of life is a cause and effect situation and you can control that situation most of the time. Almost every situation in life is a cause and effect relationship occurring. For example, right now you are probably in school studying, or doing an assignment and probably at the end of the week you will have a test on whatever you are working on. And the results of your test will be the effect to the cause you are doing right now. Most of the time, what you are doing right now is a cause and later on there will be an effect to what you are doing now. But you have control over that situation and you get to choose what gets to happen in that situation. But most people don't realize they could've controlled that situation and done better until after it happens, but after it happens it is too late and you just have to make another situation. Sometimes cause and effect can be easy to understand, like if you have dominos lined up and you push the first one and the others start to fall after you push that first one, that is a cause and effect situation. You pushing the first one is the cause and the others falling is the effect. But there is sometimes they can be long situations and hard to understand. For example, when I wrestle almost every single move I make or every move I make there I an effect to it, like if I see a kid barely moves his leg and I take a shot and land it, the cause is him barely moving his leg and the result of that is me taking a shot and landing it.

What Came First: The Chicken or the Egg? David Hume moves through a logical progression of the ideas behind cause and effect. He critically analyzes the reasons behind those generally accepted ideas. Though the relation of cause and effect seems to be completely logical and based on common sense, he discusses our impressions and ideas and why they are believed. Hume's progression, starting with his initial definition of cause, to his final conclusion in his doctrine on causality. As a result, it proves how Hume's argument on causality follows the same path as his epistemology, with the two ideas complimenting each other so that it is rationally impossible to accept the epistemology and not accept his argument on causality. Hume starts by...show more content...

That argument contradicts itself, because it uses itself as a cause for existence in its premise, when it is proving the concept of cause being a necessity. Therefore, it begs the question to prove cause and effect by relying on the conclusion to prove the premise. The ideas of cause and effect cannot vary too far from actual impressions of the mind or ideas from the memory. We must first establish the existence of causes before we can infer effects from them. We have only two ways of doing that, either by an immediate perception of our memory or senses, called impressions, or, by an inference from other causes, called thoughts. For example, "A man finding a watch or any other machine in a desert island would conclude that there had once been men in that island" (160). Regardless of the source of the impression, the imagination and perceptions of the senses are the foundation for the reasoning that traces the relation of cause and effect. The inference that we draw from cause to effect does not come from a dependence on the two concepts to each other or from a rational objective look at the two. One object does not imply the existence of any other. All distinct ideas are separable, as are the ideas of cause and effect. The only way that we can infer the existence of one object from another is through experience. Contiguity and succession are not sufficient to make us pronounce any two objects to be cause and effect, unless we Get more content

David Hume's Theory of Causality Essay

World War II was caused by the long term consequences of World War I, in that patriotic Germans never forgot their nations treatment at the Treaty of Versailles. The resentment of the German people toward other countries which stemmed from World War I, and the subsidiary effects of the failure of the League of Nations, the false sense of economic security in the worldwide interdependent economies, and the worldwide culture of superiority provoked World War II. Despite Germany's defeat in World War I, many Germans felt that they had been unfairly treated and that the Treaty of Versailles ' terms were overly harsh. Specifically the war guilt clause, which blamed Germany completely for WWI, the extreme reparations, and the mandates on military ...show more content...

The League of Nations was founded in 1920 with the aim of maintaining world peace. However, it had no army to enforce its decisions and its two strongest members, France and Britain, were reluctant to enter into conflicts. The League was also not fully representative of the world's powers, America voted against joining, despite the fact that president Woodrow Wilson had proposed the organization. This weakened the sovereignty and legitimacy of League of Nations, and had America been a member, it might have provided much needed support to England and France. The League of Nations was prone to indecision and inaction, an unanimous vote of the council was required, this made it possible for members to veto decisions that they disagreed with. The exclusion of Germany in the League of Nations also caused German resentment. Germany's power was being once again was suppressed, by excluding from the major decisions and international relations it further provoked resentment of other nations by the German people. The League of nations also did not have an abundance of power, which led to Hitler testing the its limits and ultimately realizing the organization's lack of competence. Although its original goal was to create world peace, the League of Nations provoked war, in that it led to further resentment of the German people and its flaws led to the collapse of the utopian idea of world peace at this

Cause And Effect Essay On Extreme Weather Events

Extreme weather events seem to be more common due to recent global climate changes. Changes in climate events, such as floods, droughts, and hurricanes are the primary way that most people realize climate change has consequences. Human activities have caused majority of the observable effects on the environment. According to the IPCC, regions experience the effects ofclimate change at different times, which alters some regions' ability to acclimate or modify (Global Climate Change 1). Over the last five decades, many regions of the United States have experienced extended periods of excessively high temperatures, sea–level rises, decline in snowpack and in some regions, floods and droughts (Global Climate Change 1). Washington, a state in the northwestern region, is a prime example of a destination that has experienced all of the previously stated outcomes. Washington has two distinct climate zones. West of the Cascades have mild, humid, summer days that rarely past 79 degrees Fahrenheit, and winter days that range between 27 to 64 degrees Fahrenheit. Western Washington also experiences frequent cloud cover, fog, and annual snowfall of 26 inches. In opposition, east of the state experiences warm summers and cold winters, as well as annual precipitation of only six inches (Washington State 1). In terms of liquid precipitation, there are an average of 150.0 days of rain, with the most rain occurring in January with 18.0 days of rain, and the least rain occurring in July with

Most of us learned when we were very young that we should not judge by appearances. But, in the aftermath of massacres in schools everywhere, a sane person has to take seriously what the material world shows – and pass judgment. After all, a lack of judgment and subsequent action may lead to further youth violence.

This event has been thoroughly dissected by a whole herd of politicians and pundits over a period of some months. But they have, unfortunately, failed to reach the heart of the matter.

For the heart of the matter is theological, a category that does not often appear in American public discourse. Instead, we hear talk about psychology, community, exclusion– the narrow, modern litany of cause and effect. David Mandel, a...show more content... But it really conceals an attitude for which there is a technical theological term: Gnosticism. Gnosticism was one of the early Church's chief rivals. Unlike biblical creationism and the more optimistic views of nature found in some pagan philosophers, Gnostics saw the world as the product of an evil or, at best, indifferent, god; the true God was to be found only beyond material things. Evil was built in the foundations of this world.

If you want a rough idea of what this means in practice, you need look no further than Star Wars. The two sides of the Force are in perpetual conflict with one another. Neither Good nor Evil are ultimate principles, merely two parts of a whole. We are supposed to root for the good guys. But the dark side is always there, too, and has its "meaning and beauty" for some souls. In similar fashion, our culture does not wholly accept groups like the Trench Coat Mafia. Many principals and teachers are engaged in a daily struggle to keep groups like them under control. Any school, for example, that lets gang insignias and graffiti go unchecked is headed for disaster. So administrators are quick to check them whenever possible.

But the black trench coat presents a different kind of problem. It is not hard to imagine the outcry from the ACLU and other groups if schools move to ban otherwise harmless articles of clothing. And wherever the argument begins to be made that such fringe

Smoking cigarettes is something common all around the world and has been around for ages. Sometimes after a meal, with a cup of coffee, at a social event, hanging out with friends, working on cars, being stressed out, celebrating an accomplishment, being on a break at work, while having a drink, and being in a car on the way to work are all times where a smoker would smoke a cigarette. People that smoke seems to be everywhere you go. There is an estimated 1.1 billion people that smoke today. Some people only smoke occasionally and socially but for others it is a part of their everyday life. Although cigarettesmoking is still a popular trend today, this act directly causes health and safety problems not only to the smoker, but to the people around them and the environment as well.

Smoking cigarettes is known to cause people to develop health issues. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states "the increased risk for smokers is 2 to 4 times more likely for coronary heart disease, 2 to 4 times more likely for a stroke, and 25 times more likely to develop lung cancer than a non smoker". These increased have a lot to do because of what is in them. While you are having a smoke break you might not realize that cigarette smoke contains over 7,000 chemicals. Most of which one would not normally want to be consuming. Roughly 70 chemicals that are in cigarettes are known carcinogens. A carcinogen is any substance that is known to promote the formation of cancer. Thus smoking can cause cancer not only in the lungs but just about in any other part of the human body. Most of these health risks can lead to an early death. Smoking is also considered to be the leading cause of preventable death. Most health issues can be avoided by living a healthy lifestyle. Someone just by simply not smoking cigarettes can avoid all the increased risks caused by smoking and live a longer healthy life.

Smoking cigarettes is known to be addictive and habit forming. Smoking cigarettes regularly is what develops it into addiction. It can be seen as introducing people to a life of addiction. Smoking cigarettes is not only addictive because of the nicotine found in tobacco but also because of the habit. Putting a cigarette in your Get more content

Multitasking effects on Students and Differences Between Genders

In todays day and age, we are exposed to an incredible amount of stimuli. Whether it be from advertisements on billboards or our handheld electronic devises that grant us wide ranges of entertainment. Being a current undergraduate student, it seems to be harder than ever to be able to sit down and focus on a single task or source of entertainment. Why would you limit yourself to only watching a football game on television, if you could watch the football game and scroll through social media as well. Habits of multitasking with media have significantly increased during the 2000's because of the growing uses of information and communication through technology(Roberts, Foehr, &...show more content...

In a three hour window, students were distracted thirty five times in that three hour window. These distractions took up nearly 1/6th of the study time (Ackerman, Calderwood, & Conklin, 2014). If multitasking is making it harder to study, why would students do it? A study found four main reasons why students multitask with media. Students find that multitasking is more task efficient, it can be entertaining, it enables people to connect with peers, and some can be addicted to multitasking in general( Knononva, Chiang, 2015). While multitasking is becoming more and more abundant, the question whether it is helping or hindering studying is still in question. How well can humans retain information while focusing on multiple sources at the same time. Is it truly plausible that we can read and retain information while being distracted by other sources of information. Trying to determine the effectiveness of multitasking and finding a valid conclusion to it's effectiveness, could possibly help us better understand our capabilities as humans. These finding could help us construct expectations and reveal limitations of our capabilities as humans. Doing this could help us create better study habits and display a correct way to operate as
