What Is a System in Chemistry?

What Is a System in Chemistry?How is it that many people are not aware of what is a system in chemistry? I myself don't understand it. So, how can you make your knowledge of the subject more meaningful and beneficial?The most common systems in chemistry include solids, liquids, gases, mixtures, equilibrium, solutes, ionic liquids, etc. Actually, these can be split into four systems based on how they operate. For instance, solids are chemicals in solution that can be considered as liquid particles. When they are agitated by strong electric fields or by passing the solution through hot water, they change from solid to liquid.Liquids are also chemical substances in solution that cannot be agitated. They are considered as solid if they solidify when they are subjected to the high temperature. This is referred to as a solidifying process in some textbooks.A mixture is a system in which two substances interact with each other to create a new compound. For example, if you mix boric acid and sodium hydroxide (the chemical reactions are the same), then you have formed the compound sodium borate. Now, it can be added to another chemical that will yield sodium hydroxide (NaOH).Equilibrium is another common system in chemistry. It is a system where all the other systems are moving in a certain direction and cannot be changed. In this case, the system of equilibrium is the one that comes out as the main system.The final system in chemistry is the equilibrium. It is a system that exhibits a certain stability. For example, the system of equilibrium is the one that displays positive net charge.So, knowing what is a system in chemistry will help you get an understanding of chemical reactions that you may encounter in your life. Good luck!

Cross Country Star Committed to Reaching Goals

Cross Country Star Committed to Reaching Goals Cross Country Star Committed to Reaching Goals Zosia, 12-years-old, Math Level J Reading Program Completer Whether it’s a relay runner pushing through their leg of the race to pass the baton off to their teammate or a beginner who wants to improve their mile time â€" runners set goals to challenge themselves and strive for greatness. Runners often display tenacity, discipline and determination to focus on reaching the goals that lie ahead. 12-year-old Zosia also learned the importance of setting goals, both when shes running cross country and in the classroom. Just last year, she was the top performing runner on her middle school’s cross country team. Zosia continues to remain focused on the goals that lie ahead, and never lets any challenge get in the way. “I believe in myself and I’m competitive,” said Zosia. “Whether I am running, swimming, writing or solving math problems, I set my mind at being the best.” Zosia has proven to be far from your average student. At five, her test scores were off the charts, allowing her to skip kindergarten and landing her right into first grade. She was destined for success right from the start, and her story begins in Kumon. Zosia’s Kumon journey began when she was just three years old. She completed the entire Kumon Reading Program , which ends in analyzing high school literature, before entering the 8th grade. Zosia’s math skills have also proven to be above grade level as she’s already mastered algebraic concepts like exponential functions and quadratic equations. Zosia has even found time in her busy schedule to give back to the community. Having completed 123 hours of community service during the school year, she was recognized with the Outstanding Service Award. In 2018, she was awarded the first place prize in the Fond du Lac County Land Conservation Committee’s Conservation and Awareness Poster Contest. Zosia’s entry also took first place at the regional level advancing her to state. “I am proud of the way I use my intelligence, and have high hopes to become a neurosurgeon,” said Zosia. “I am proud that I don’t give into peer pressure because I know doing the wrong thing will block my way to reaching my goals.” What do you enjoy most about Kumon? I really enjoy working independently. Zosia shakes hands with Kumon North America President Mino Tanabe What’s the most beneficial thing you’ve learned in Kumon so far? Kumon has helped me overcome some difficult times in life. At times, it has been hard for me to make friends.

An Open Letter To The Stanford Rape Case Judge

An Open Letter To The Stanford Rape Case Judge pixabay.com Sure, sentencing a young boy to years in prison wouldnt be the most fulfilling aspect of your job description, but that doesnt mean you simply dont do it. On a day that an innocent, broken down victim looked to you, trusted you, relied on you to do the right thing by her, on a day that America as a whole, looked to you to do exactly what needed to be done, you fell short. No, thats too forgiving. If Im being completely honest, you failed completely. And heres why: For one thing, rape is a serious crime thats all too often disregarded by our judicial system. Lack of proof and gray areas are just some of the reasons certain rape cases will never even make it to trial, while simple fear of reliving such a traumatic experience prevents even more victims from even reporting the crime. And what youve done in your sentencing does nothing but reiterate this concern to victims everywhere. What youve told victims is that their voice does not matter. Youve told them that their traumatic experiences, their recovery from this experience, and their fear something that oftentimes lasts the rest of their lives doesnt require justice to be served. Youve told them, and everyone else in the country, that a college athlete is above the law. What do you think the repercussions are going to be? You think that rapes are going to decrease now? You think that perpetrators are going to be afraid to commit this crime? Certainly not. All youve done is shown rapists the repercussions for their crimes arent going to be taken seriously. All youve done is taken away hope from victims and given it to their perpetrators. Whether purposely or not, this is what youve done. Let me fill you in on something that needs to be heard, not just by you, but by the entire system: athletes are not above the law. Athletes are people. And if theyve committed a crime, theyre a criminal. Their swimming time no longer applies their crimes do. A football player that murdered his wife is a murderer. A basketball player that robbed a bank is a thief. An Olympic gymnast that smuggles drugs, but that brought home the gold medal three times for the U.S., is still a smuggler. To put it into perspective for those that dont understand: athleticism does not make you immune to the law when you commit a crime. It just makes you an athletic criminal. I understand that the Stanford student was young. I understand he had a bright future ahead of him. But his actions are no ones fault but his own. One person, and one person alone ruined his future: him. Not sentencing a criminal because youre afraid of what it will do to them is laughably ignorant. Sure, this kid will come out mentally more stable than perhaps he would have otherwise. So what? What of the victims around the world who were silenced by your decision? All youve done is exchanged the well-being of one criminal for the well-being of innumerable innocents. As difficult as it is to be a judge to hand out sentences in the hopes that they are correct its astounding that such an unforgivable crime receives nothing more than a slap on the wrist. For the rape victims everywhere that are too scared to speak up, you are doing them no favors. Nobody should be put through this, and by handing out a light sentence, in a way, you are condoning this behavior if youre of a certain social status, or if youre an athlete. Its time to make a stand, to make an example out of someone that many would believe untouchable, but you instead did nothing to help the cause. Rape victims shouldnt have to go through such trials for such a minimizing outcome. This is exactly why victims arent speaking out against their assailants theyve been shown time and time again that their pain and suffering do not matter. That its their own fault, that even if they come forward, nothing is going to come from it. Its a sad reality, and thats exactly why now is the time for a change, and what better way to start than at the top? If you wont make an example of such privileged assailants who have no remorse, then we as a public have decided to make an example of you. The time for change is now no more waiting around for a change that we cant go on without. In the wake of this crime, youve let us down. And in all honesty, you wont be the last to do so. But we wont be silenced. We have a voice. The victim of this crime has a voice. And we are all going to start being heard. Like I said, its a time for change, whether the judicial system is ready or not. So thank you for your awful decision. Thank you because its made the rest of us stronger. Its brought light to an issue otherwise ignored. Thank you for your ignorance. Its made us stronger.

January Exams!

January Exams! During the month of January many academic exams are taken by students all over the UK. If you have prepared and revised well in advance you should have no worries sitting your exams.

Find out how much time you have for the exam so that you can split your time between questions and assure that all questions will be answered. Know what kind of questions you will be asked. Read the whole paper first, answer the questions you know well, this increases your confidence and helps you stay relaxed. Mark the questions you are unsure of and tackle them last. You will receive better marks for answering all questions than answering only some very well so make sure all questions receive an answer. Take time with your handwriting, it must be legible so that the examiner can read it without difficulty. Check your spelling too! If the exam involves long answers, leave some space at the end of the answer for additional comments or arguments that might spring to mind towards the end of the exam. When the exam is over try to forget about it. There is nothing else you can do so it's pointless going through the answers you put and discovering they differ to your friend! If you are disappointed when you receive your exam results, consider finding a private tutor who can help with future exams or resits. Best of luck!
