“The Indigenous eco-philosophy that underlies the ability of Indigenous peoples to maintain dignified relationships to the land and food system is in sharp contrast to the Eurocentric belief, inherent in the worldview proposed by European philosopher Rene Descartes, that humans are to dominate and control nature, and therefore seek to “manage” the land that provides us with our food. Indigenous eco-philosophy reinforces belief that humans do not manage land, but instead can only manage our behaviours in relation to it.”

I’m stuck on a Chemistry question and need an explanation.

Objective: State the aim of the experiment in your own words, usually around 2-4 sentences. A clear statement of the overall purpose for performing the experiment. For example, what is / are the goal(s) to be achieved and what idea(s) are you to learn during the duration of the project?

You will need to bring in TWO water samples (~250 mL per sample) from various sources. Here are some suggestions: tap water from various sites, pond water, and lake water. You are free to collect any water samples you are interested in testing their water hardness; make sure the samples are fairly diverse. Label the water samples you collect for accurate testing.

Using the standardized EDTA solution you prepared and saved last week, titrate and calculate the concentration of calcium ions of your water samples.

Next, run the samples through an ion exchange column; then calculate the calcium concentration of your water samples AFTER filtrating them through the ion exchange column. Use a conductivity meter and the EDTA titration to compare the calcium concentration of your water sample BEFORE and AFTER the ion exchange column filtration. Use the tables provided to collect and construct your data.

Include this information in the Methods and Procedures section of the pre-lab plan submission rubric below.

1. What is an ion-exchange column?

2. How does an ion-exchange column work?

I’m studying for my Chemistry class and need an explanation.

A thin stream of water bends toward a negatively charged rod. When a positively charged rod is placed near the stream, it will bend in the same direction, not the opposite direction. Why? Can you think of another example?

the topic of this assignment is formation of california please write or tabulate the 10 facts about the oceanic topic which is (formation of california).

Please see the example report given below.

Example

1983 Pacific Hurricanes

1. It was the longest (June 1 – November 30) hurricane season ever recorded at that time (1983 was an El Nino year).
2. Most of the hurricanes started in the East Pacific between 10N-15N and 90W-110W.
3. There were 12 hurricanes during this season, eight of them were Category 3, and the maximum wind speed reached was 145 mph.
4. There were 168 fatalities due to the hurricanes (most were in Mexico).
5. The total damage was over $303 million (in 1983 USD).
6. The strong hurricane season in the Pacific made the Atlantic hurricane season unusually weak.
7. All hurricanes died before reaching the longitude of Hawaii.
8. One hurricane progressed towards the USA and caused extensive floods.
9. This season had an unusual hurricane in December.
