Physical Chemistry Kinetics

Physical Chemistry KineticsIf you want to learn about physical chemistry, it's important to understand how this science works. There are many benefits to understanding how the physical world works, and being able to use the tools you need are a very good way to begin. You will also find that there are several different ways to study physical chemistry. If you are a beginning student, you can either choose a university that offers courses in this area, or you can choose a private school that offers courses for this purpose.Before you make your choice, you should first determine what you hope to learn. Some students want to learn about what occurs in the body when people are sick. Others are more interested in learning about how chemicals and substances work with one another.If you are looking to learn about the human body, you can choose to take science classes about biology. Biology is actually a branch of science, and there are several different subjects in this area. One of the bes t ways to study biology is through the Biochemistry class at the University of Miami.The Biochemistry class at UM also offers students a chance to take some anatomy and physiology classes. This means that they can learn about how the body is connected with the world, and how the body responds to certain things. Although it doesn't cover everything, it does give students a decent understanding of what they need to know.If you are more interested in learning about biology, you can also choose to take courses in biological sciences. There are classes in biochemistry, anatomy, and physiology, all of which provide a better understanding of the human body. Because each of these subjects involves many different things, students who take them also learn to think critically about them. For example, if you are studying biology, you may have an interest in what happens in the body when a disease is diagnosed.Although biology is the most popular of the chemistry classes, there are other subject s that you can take to learn more about the chemical processes in the world. These include chemistry for non-science majors, and the physical chemistry course at Miami Dade College.Whether you want to learn about anatomy and physiology, or the world of biochemistry, it's important to be familiar with chemistry. Knowing how your body reacts to certain things, and how chemicals interact with one another is vital to learning all kinds of subjects. Just remember to keep up with all the necessary classes so that you are prepared for the workplace.

What Its Like To Take Your First College Test

What It's Like To Take Your First College Test Via (slowrobot.com) You have assigned reading for a reason. Your professor didn’t make you buy a textbook and let it sit at your desk with no purpose other than to hurt your bank account. Your lectures, homework, and exam grades all ride on the simple task of reading. Instead of rushing to your room after class to catch up on the next Netflix episode, skim through the chapter and highlight what interested you about the reading. You’ll be able to input your thoughts during the discussion and impress your professor. 2. Did you talk in class? Via (onedio.com) Giving your opinion and asking questions is probably the easiest thing you can do. Professors like students that speak up and discuss. It’s a high school “teacher’s pet” move, but it’s a smart move in college. Other students might have similar thoughts and questions; they’ll even appreciate that you took one for the team and spoke first. Easier said than done, of course. The intimidation of talking in a room full of strangers is real, but so is not knowing the answer to the question. If you really aren’t comfortable with speaking up in class, write down any questions and email your professor or stop by to discuss during their office hours. Your effort outside of class may even be rewarded with a few extra points on your grade. 3. Dont go out.   Via (Giphy) Learn from my mistakes, y’all. Do not, under any circumstance, go out before a test. A no-brainer, huh? Well, yours truly was obviously not prepared for college. I’d just moved to a new city for college, I went out and had dinner with a cousin. That turned into a night of bars and clubs, naturally. Next thing I knew, I was crashed out on her couch with no way of getting back to campus. Luckily, I have the best friend you can make in college who picked my hungover ass up and took me back to my dorm room. I then had the genius idea of checking my planner and realized my first midterm exam of my college life was in 15 minutes. It didn’t matter that I’d taken the fastest shower in recorded history and Usain Bolted to my class because I was two minutes late and my professor had locked the doors. I made the lesser known walk of shame to my room. The story has a happy ending, however, because my professor offered the class a recovery exam to replace the lowest test grade. Still, I was traumatized about the whole thing that I didn’t go out again for three months. To this day, I make it a point to check my agenda before I even think about going out. 4. Layouts matter. Via (Giphy) How you’re getting tested is important to know, too. Depending on your class material, your professor may give you questions in essay or multiple choice format. Your professor may assign a day to review in the syllabus. If you don’t pay attention at any other point in the semester, please pay attention to this one given day as a one-time refresher on what will be on your first college test. If the exam is in essay format, your professor will want to know what you took away from class discussions and topics. Formulate a study guide with opinionated answers and write down anything you can remember or research on. If the exam is in multiple-choice format, you’ll probably want to use note cards as your study guide. Write down definitions, important names and dates, key facts, and topic summaries. If you can connect descriptions to words, you’ll have an easier time taking your test. 5. Grading styles help. Via (theodysseyonline.com) Curves, in all sense of the word, are my favorite. Professors know that college students are not prepared for college-level work. Don’t feel bad about how badly it went because they may pity you and add points to your grade. Although this may not seem fair to the ones who studied intensely, their grade will just get better so it’s a win-win for everyone. 6. Incentives work. Via (Giphy) If having good grades isn’t important enough to you, remember that there’s ice cream in the freezer waiting for you after that one hour of hell. It helps, I promise. Your rewards after having survived your first exam will be much sweeter. Obviously, you could just collect your prize now and go to your exam with a happy belly, but the psychology of setting a reward and earning it is much more satisfying. Your first exam is not just your first exam it’s a holistic preview of the semester. If you fail because you don’t study, I don’t have to tell you what happened there. If you prepare for the worst, you’ll have a better chance of acing your first college test. May the odds be ever in your favor, friends.

A New Year, A New Fight For Womens Rights

A New Year, A New Fight For Womens Rights pexels.com While this certainly isn’t news to anyone that’s been watching the news, it’s still alarming that this is going to be one of the first topics up for discussion, especially given its controversial background. According to Planned Parenthood, following the election of Donald Trump they prepared themselves for “a fight of a scale that we haven’t seen before.” And they were right in doing so. This Thursday, Paul Ryan (House Speaker) confirmed the alleged plans in stating that Republicans were planning to take away federal funding from Planned Parenthood. This would be done as a part of a bill that Republicans are putting together to repeal the Affordable Care Act. According to Paul Ryan, “Planned Parenthood legislation will be in our reconciliation bill.” However, he did not explain any further than this. This is not the first time that Republicans have attempted to repeal the bill. Republicans previously passed a reconciliation bill back in 2015 that was meant to repeal Obamacare (at least in part) and to defund Planned Parenthood. This bill passed both houses of Congress but was ultimately vetoed by President Obama. This time around, we may see a different ending. For one thing, senators are unable to filibuster the bill (as it’s part of the reconciliation process) and for another, the bill won’t need a majority to pass. And the biggest difference of all is the President himself, as Trump is unlikely to veto this bill as his predecessor did before him, and that’s exactly what Republicans are expecting. Because of this bill, it’s likely that Planned Parenthood will have to close operations in many parts of the country, as they are expected to lose almost half of their funding if this bill becomes a law. President of Planned Parenthood Cecile Richards commented on this bill: “Two and a half million women, men and young people come through our doors every year for life-saving care like cancer screenings, birth control, and STI and STD tests … and they cannot afford to have basic reproductive health care attacked.” This is basically what the whole controversy comes down to abortion. Because Planned Parenthood offers abortion procedures, Republicans want to shut it down. But the truth is, Planned Parenthood is so much more than that, and while that’s a large component, it isn’t everything. Planned Parenthood provides low-income individuals healthcare that they can’t get elsewhere, and protects women’s reproductive rights on top of it all. So whether or not individuals agree with abortion is irrelevant Planned Parenthood is open regardless of everyone’s beliefs; it’s open because it’s necessary. It’s so easy to discredit Planned Parenthood because it “takes a stance” on a controversial issue that you (and Republicans) may not agree with, but that’s looking through a very narrow, judgmental lens that doesn’t give you the full picture. And Planned Parenthood has been attacked more than enough times, including the recent lawsuit in Texas involving Medicaid funds being withdrawn, which Planned Parenthood has referred to as a “politically motivated witch hunt.” It’s been said time and time again and needs to be keep being said until somebody listens: women’s reproductive rights have no stakes on politics. None. What a woman does or does not do with her body is nobody’s business but her own, and taking away rights (such as abortion, which, like it or not, is still a right) is wrong. To rant a little bit, it’s important that we remember the separation of church and state. Because pro-life activists are mostly (not entirely, but mostly) Christian’s, this is a huge conflict of interest. Moving to the Americas was initially done in part for freedom of religion, and condemning women for practicing abortion is in direct violation of this. Just because you believe it is wrong does not make it so. It’s an individual choice, and one that you will hopefully never have to make. But it’s still a choice, and women have the right to make it regardless of your religious beliefs. So brace yourselves, as controversy is already beginning in 2017, and if Planned Parenthood has anything to say about it, this struggle is going to be far from easy for Republicans. And vice versa. Who will win? Only time will tell.

Making the Most of Any Internship

Making the Most of Any Internship pexels.com Learn new skills that can help you stand out among competitors   Instead of looking at an internship that isnt related to your major or career as a lost opportunity to learn skills for your desired career, look at the internship as an opportunity to learn new skills that you would not be able to learn if you were doing an internship related to your major or career. If you are looking to go into a more science-oriented field and end up with an internship in writing or publishing with a company like Uloop, dont assume that theres nothing for you to learn if you arent doing anything science-related. You get to learn how to improve your writing something that is vital in writing important emails or proposals. You also get to learn how to cater to a specific audience, depending on what internship you are in this will help you when it comes to choosing how and when to say something depending on who you are speaking to (a boss, a fellow coworker, a client, etc). Always try to see any skills you pick up during an internship as a later advantage. Spending time working an internship unrelated to your major or career allows you to pick up skills you may not be able to pick up otherwise, something that future employers will appreciate when you are able to offer more skills than what is expected of you. This is even more helpful when being compared to others in your major, as you will be able to claim a more diverse set of skills and knowledge than your peers, something that can get you a position over them. When picking up a new skill, always try to figure out how it amplifies a skill you already have, or how it can help you in your future career. Network with others outside of your major or career   Just like your internship offering you the chance to learn new skills that will help you in the future, your internship will offer you the opportunity to network, just like any opportunity. You may not think that you have something in common with your coworkers or fellow interns because you arent studying anything related to the internship and therefore shouldnt bother connecting with them, but networking with them is just as important as networking at any other internship. You never know where one worker has been, or even where they plan to go until you reach out to them. Dont try to put up a front like the internship exactly fits the bill of what you want in a career; be honest about why you took up the internship (picking up new skills, you liked the company, etc.) and voice your desires and interests when it comes to what you study and want to do in the future. Company employees may even be in the same boat, or have been, and can offer plenty of advice to help get you where you want to be. They may be able to help you connect with friends and other connections that are in the field that you want to be in, giving you a way to build up your experience regardless of your internship.

AP Biology - Helpful Links To Consider

AP Biology - Helpful Links To ConsiderThe AP Biology chapter is one of the more popular AP courses taught at the university level. There are certain elements that are taught in this course that could benefit students. These benefits will vary from one individual to another but they can be easily applied to any other college or university level course that takes biology. This is one of the reasons why it is a great option for those who are on a budget and are willing to take the time to educate themselves about the most important field of study in the world.Before high school students became interested in science, it was much more difficult to understand the complexities of life on this planet. Biology therefore requires students to learn about things like genes, cell division, reproduction, genetics, and even the events that lead to the species' extinction. For a lot of students who have grown up in this type of environment, there is nothing that can prepare them for taking a biology course.Biology also offers an interesting way for students to expand their knowledge of life as we know it. Students often begin their studies with a biology class, which teaches them how the different parts of the body interact with each other and the environment. This information will be a valuable tool for students to use when they decide to pursue a career in biology. The very first part of this introductory class teaches students how to differentiate among their body parts such as muscles, bones, organs, and so on.In addition to the biological understanding of the various parts of the body, it is important for students to also understand how their body reacts to different environments. For example, if a student is exposed to various kinds of toxins during their studies, they will need to be able to differentiate between healthy parts of the body and unhealthy parts. This way, they will be able to determine whether or not they are exposed to harmful toxins.Biology is a practica l science and students must realize that while they may not be able to solve every puzzle, they will be able to tackle a variety of problems. If they are prepared for the challenges that lie ahead, they will be able to succeed in the future.Biology also allows students to learn about the process of evolution. Just as organisms adapt to their surroundings, they are also influenced by their environment. Through biology, students can see how the world has changed over time and how the development of different species has come to be. This will help them understand the relationships between all the different elements of the world such as a person's parents, the environment, and the course of time.Additionally, social sciences and psychology are also included in the courses of Biology. In this case, students will learn how emotions impact people's ability to function effectively and solve problems. It is always beneficial for students to take classes with other students who will relate to their own life experiences and it can help students feel more comfortable in their surroundings.

Antiderivative of 3x

Antiderivative of 3x Anti-derivatives is the reverse or opposite of derivatives. Here the function given is 3x therefore the powerrule is used to find the anti-derivative. According to the power rule any function which has the variable raisedto the power n is written as xn has the anti-derivative =xn dx= x(n+1)/ (n+1) + c.Hence the anti-derivative of : 3x is 3x2/2. Example 1: Find the anti-derivative of the function f(x) = 3x + 4x2 Here the given function is f(x) = 3x + 4x2. The anti-derivative of the function 3x is 3x2/2 Using the power rule, the anti-derivative of 4x2 has to be found. Power rule states that anti-derivative of xn= xn dx= x(n+1)/ (n+1) + c Therefore, the anti-derivative of 4x2 is 4x3/3. Hence the antiderivative of the given function is = 3x2/2 + 4x3/3 + c Example 2: Find the anti-derivative of the function f(x) = 11 - 3x Here the given function is f(x) = 11 - 3x. The anti-derivative of the function 3x is 3x2/2 Using the power rule the anti-derivative of 11 needs to be found. Power rule states anti-derivative of xn= xn dx= x (n+1)/ (n+1) + c 11 can be written as 11 x0 Therefore, the anti-derivative of 11 x0 is 11x1 Hence antiderivative of the given function is = 11x 3x2/2 + c

How to Motivate a High School Student

How to Motivate a High School Student Its the same conundrum that a lot of parents face. You know your child is intelligent. Every now and then, you see glimpses of brilliance: a high test score, a great idea, a strong grade, etc. Yet, you just cant seem to get them to put in the extra time to improve. Your child isnt reaching their full potential and it might appear that they just dont want to buckle down and make it happen. Never fear youre not the only parent who has this problem and there are plenty of ways to motivate high school students. Make them want it Do you ever feel like you want your child to get a 30 on the ACT more than they do? If thats the case, you should know that theyre not just going to all of the sudden snap out of it. You need them to want it. If you can achieve this, your student will be well on their way to high achievement. Let them make the decisions Dont push the big state school or the older siblings alma mater on them. Dont push a certain high school curriculum or dictate exactly what their GPA should be. Instead, discuss their specific goals with them. Ask them where theyd like to go to college, what classes they enjoy, or what theyre considering for a major. Then, you can ask them what they need in order to achieve all of this. Students need to feel like theyre controlling the entire process and must set their own goals to do so. Keep in mind that they might not always tell you what those goals are, especially if they think youre just going to micromanage the entire process with that information. Offer help when asked for it You can frequently ask your child if they want help, but dont offer it unsolicited. Doing the latter could kill their motivation. For example, if you sneak onto the computer to proofread their college application essay, youre essentially telling them that they arent mature enough to handle it themselves. Instead, you should just ask if theres any way you can help, and only do so if they ask for it. Dont use scare tactics One of the worst things you can do is tell a student that they definitely wont get into their choice school if they dont do X, Y, or Z. At that point, they will only study to appease you, rather than studying to genuinely improve. They will end up doing the absolute minimum instead of putting that extra effort needed throughout all areas of their application to holistically impress the admissions committee. Let them work with a tutor College admissions is becoming increasingly more competitive and many students are turning to SAT tutorsorACT tutors to improve their scores on the respective tests. Sometimes, unmotivated students can respond very well to these scenarios. However, its incredibly important that you explore these options with your child. Let them select their own tutor dont simply sign them up with a stranger who they know nothing about. Recognize hard work If your student spends a Saturday afternoon studying for the ACT, acknowledge and praise it. Buy them a pizza and show them how proud you are of the fact that theyre moving in the right direction. Stay calm Throughout the college application process, you need to be a rock for your child. There are going to be moments when they bomb an SAT practice test or get overwhelmed with the various application essay topics and start to worry. You need to be supportive and help diagnose the problems they are having.
