Understanding The Basic Concept Of Salt Chemistry Definition

Understanding The Basic Concept Of Salt Chemistry DefinitionHaving a good sense of the basic concept of salt chemistry definition and its related aspects is essential for understanding the meaning of the term. Salt, by definition, refers to any crystalline solid mass that is deposited on a non-magnetic surface. Such a solid is called a salt because the word 'salt' has its roots in Latin word 'sal', meaning 'hidden', and 'geum', meaning 'place'.Salt and its contents are prepared by placing volatile substances (which are non-volatile liquid) into a container (which is a semi-permeable layer) such as a vessel or an earthenware pot. In this process, there are two processes of making a salt, the one which involve solidifying the substance, and the one which involve using the liquid substance in solidifying the substance. The process of solidification of the substance can be known as crystallization, and the process of liquidation can be known as distillation.Salt is always placed on a non -magnetic surface such as a glass, ceramics, or glassware to achieve its crystallization. As it becomes a solid, it tends to harden. Once the substance becomes solid, it transforms into a salt, which is a distinct form of matter because it exhibits a crystalline structure. A derivative of salt is also a salt; one example of such derivative is white or salt water.The definition varies according to the substance used to form a salt. For example, certain gases such as oxygen (not hydrogen) that is referred to as hydrochloric acid as the salt is a mixture of two solids, namely HCl and CO2. Similarly, salt crystals are usually composed of chloride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and sodium iodide. Similarly, a volatile substance such as alcohol or vinegar is referred to as a salt when it is mixed with water.The difference between water and salt has been compared by biologists as the ultimate criterion on which species are distinguished. On this basic difference, there are four type s of salt molecules. Water is considered to be a semi-solid, whereas salt, unlike water, is considered to be a liquid. The surface tension of water is similar to that of a liquid, while salt tends to be quite dense and to be a liquid at any given point of its volume.Generally, all chemical names refer to the physical or chemical properties of a particular substance. The use of chemical symbols such as ''and '' would be used in describing the physical property. Scientists also use the expression '' to represent the weight of a substance. After the chemical symbol, the various terms used in describing the same substance are further classified by using words such as: the degree of aggregation, the presence of certain chemicals, the mode of crystallization, the region of distribution, the characteristics of the dissociation and the mode of crystal formation.Salt chemistry definition and its related aspects are useful for understanding the formation and growth of mineral and non-mineral materials. Various chemical properties of minerals or natural resources would be discussed to understand their genesis and growth. It is therefore important to understand salt chemistry definition before understanding the basic concepts of minerals.

Facebook Madness! Advanced Listening Exercise

Facebook Madness! Advanced Listening Exercise Last week was a big news week for Facebook, as the company began trading publicly on the NASDAQ on Friday. Im not sure how it was in other countries, but here in the U.S. it was an important topic.A lot of people wondered, and still wonder, if Facebook is really worth $100 billion. Over the next few months well watch and see. In the meantime, I know a lot of our students are interested in the tech world, and especially the startup world that Facebook helped to create in many ways, so Ive made a listening exercise with a video about the company going public.The video is a little difficult, but its short, so you can watch it a few times. Below youll find listening questions.You can write the answers below in comments, and well give you the results.What information about Facebook were people trying to download from the internet?Apparently there were so many people that had _____ ____.What does the phrase from the sentence above mean?How many monthly active users does Facebook have?Thats basically __ ____ _____ almost everyone that has a computer in the world, has internet access in the world. (note: Shes wrong. There are about 2.45 billion.)What was Facebooks warning about these numbers?What did Zuckerberg say in his 2,000 word letter?Why would this bother investors?

LOI Participates in English Day at Swedish School

LOI Participates in English Day at Swedish School LOI recently took part in  an English Day at  the request of a longtime student, Frank. Frank teaches English and Spanish to middle school students in Sweden. He  asked  LOI to offer our live classes to  a group of his 13 and 14 year old students as part of English Day, so that they would have the chance to talk with native speakers.We were excited to have the opportunity to work with Frank and give this  group of young learners the chance to really use their English.We broke them into six groups of 4 students each. Each group  met an LOI English teacher by Skype. The classes were focused around conversation and dealt with topics interesting to teenagers, like violence and bullying in school, dress codes and appearances, the importance  of education and whether  money makes you happy. Here is what Franks students had to say about our classes:The teacher’s name was David. He was the British teacher and he was very  funny. He made a lot of jokes and was very open and polite. He talke d all the  time and asked us a lot of things and was very good at making the  conversation flow. So we think the teacher was very good and funny and I’m  happy that we got him. The good thing was that we lost track of the topic and  talked about many other things in a natural way. Anyways this idea with  Skype was very fun and a great way to learn English. It was funnier to speak  on Skype instead of writing and stuff.  We used the video so we could see each other and that was a lot easier.    Julia, Linn, Elliot and Filip (group 3).Everyone in our group think that it was very funny to talk to someone who  just speaks English and not understood Swedish. In that way we had to speak  English and it turn into a real conversation. Muireann was really kind and she  talked so we could understand her. We understood what she said and it was  really easy to talk with her. We would love to do this again. We recommend  this program to other schools because we learned a lot by talking. It w as easy  to use Skype.  Elsa, Fillipa, Felicia and Linus (group 2).Our Skype teacher was Mark. He is an American, from California. He is funny and really  cool. We discussed different topics and when we could not find words he helped us. It is  much better than learning English in class. It is also better to speak with somebody from  a country where they speak English. It is also better because you can ´t speak Swedish  with that person so you have to speak English whole the time.  We think that using Skype for learning English in school is awesome and we would love  to do it again.  Alva, Magdalena, Isak and Hampus (group 6).If you are interested in having an English Day with your students, or have other interesting ideas for our classes, please contact us!

How soon can I teach abroad

How soon can I teach abroad Our friends at University of Toronto TEFL Online  published a great post about how soon you can teach abroad:You’ve decided to teach abroad...let the adventure begin! But hold on before squeezing your life into a tiny suitcase and booking a cheap flight, because the process is not always as straightforward as it might seem. Whether you're looking to teach English abroad or teach your chosen subject specialization, making the big move can take anything from a few weeks to a few months and even over a year if you want to secure the job you really want. How long it will take to prepare to teach abroad depends on your answers to the following questions:Do you have the right qualifications to teach abroad?If not, you will have to allow some time to take a course, which could take anywhere from a few months to a few years depending on the kind of teaching career you’d like. To get a well paying job with a good school, you’ll need to set yourself apart from hundreds of other teachers. The best way to do this is with qualifications from reputable institutions that make you stand out. The kinds of teaching jobs available abroad can be split into two categories which require different kinds of qualifications:ESL jobs: Positions teaching English in language colleges, and sometimes schools. Although you don’t need experience, many institutions will require teachers to have some teacher training under their belt in the form of a TEFL certification. A TEFL certification is considered the standard for applying to teaching jobs overseas and can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to complete.Certified teacher jobs: Positions teaching children and young adults a variety of subjects in public and private schools. These kinds of jobs normally require a Bachelor’s degree in Education, or a degree in a specialist subject, and require you to hold a teaching credential. It takes several years of study and practical teaching to become a fully certified teacher.It is important to note that although you don’t need any teaching experience or formal teaching qualifications to teach English abroad, a lot of countries require you to have a Bachelor’s degree in order to work there legally. You should search the work visa requirements of the countries you would like to travel to. What region are you interested in teaching?Some countries are well known for having strict requirements that must be met to work as a teacher there. The Middle East is known for requiring a higher level of qualification, such as a BEd or other formal teaching qualification, and requiring candidates to have more experience as a teacher. This has gained it a reputation for being a difficult region in which to find a teaching position. If you’re set on moving to Dubai, for example, it might be worthwhile working on gaining your teaching experience for a few years to improve your chances of employment. Asia tends to be more relaxed when it comes to teaching job requiremen ts. Jobs with language schools and some public and private schools will happily welcome applicants with a basic TEFL certification. As an enormous country with a booming population, demand for English teachers is especially high in China, and therefore there is also somewhat less competition for jobs and a better chance of scoring a last minute position if you’re keen to start soon.When do schools in your desired country hire teachers? True, there is no shortage of opportunities out there to suit your timeline -- whether you’re looking for a short notice role or whether you’re still saving up the money, or waiting until you graduate. However, you should take into consideration the time of year you’d like to find a teaching job abroad. If you’re hoping to work at a public or private school overseas, check when the school year starts in the country you’d like to live in. In the Middle East and Asia, this can be January or April. Language colleges for children and adults ma y hire teachers year-round, but tend to concentrate their hiring at the start of the school year, and mid way through the school year. How soon would you like to teach abroad?If you fill qualification requirements, there is a good chance you’ll be able to find a good position at short notice. There is growing global demand for English teachers throughout the year and with some basic teacher training under your belt, you will be a desirable candidate for many schools. If you have a longer time line - perhaps you need to save or finish your studies - you can also make this work for you too. Plenty of schools hire for their next intake up to a year in advance. Registering with a teacher recruitment agency, such as Teach Away, is also a good idea as you will be notified about any relevant opportunities that come up in the future.

The Value in Taking Online Courses

The Value in Taking Online Courses Photo by Nick Morrison on Unsplash Have control of your own schedule One of the most promising aspects of online courses is that online courses allow you to have control of your own schedule as they are much more loosely scheduled than your typical class would be. Of course, you will still have the usual deadlines for quizzes, exams, papers, or discussion posts, but you wont have to go to a lecture at a set time several times a week when you might need to be somewhere else. Taking an online course allows you to adjust your schedule accordingly. For example, if you need to trade shifts at work to go home later in the week and the only shifts people are willing to give up when you would typically watch an online lecture, you can always find another time to study the lecture in order to pick up a shift. By taking an online course, you minimize the chances of having serious time conflicts and save yourself the trouble of picking if  having a job  or going to school is more important to you. If you are notorious for skipping your early morning classes because you cant find it in yourself to become a morning person, taking an online course eliminates that problem. If you know you work better at a certain time of the day, like nighttime, you can easily plan time during your nighttime routine for listening to online lectures. You get to decide when your class time is. Taking an online course also allows you to follow your own pace. If you hate going to lecture just because your professor is slow while going through a concept, trails off on a tangent too often, or doesnt stop to gauge the students level of understanding for the lectures content, you can listen to online lectures without worrying about that problem. Create your own learning environment When it comes to taking your typical college course, you may find yourself disliking whatever learning environment you are set in. You might prefer to learn in a smaller, more private area instead of the typical lecture hall, which can be full of distractions. The people around you could be in a full conversation, conflicting with whatever the professor is lecturing about. The person ahead of you can be online shopping or streaming something on Netflix, allowing your wandering eyes to take advantage from the lecture. If you are taking an online course, however, you get to decide what your learning environment will look like. Build your own distraction-free zone according to your taste. You can reserve a study room on campus to eliminate the possibility of a roommate barging in mid-lecture or you getting sleepy and taking a nap instead of sitting through a full lecture. If learning from the comfort of your own home is your best option, create a study space just like you would to crank out an essay or study for an exam. Turn your phone off or set it to the side, let your roommates know if you want to keep the noise level down, and whatever else you usually do to create a space you can be productive in. Test your self-control, or learn some While online courses may seem very promising, the idea of holding yourself accountable to follow a strict schedule on your own may seem daunting depending on the level of self-control you already have. Online courses give you plenty of freedom when it comes to deciding when and where you want to have class time, and that freedom comes with a large amount of responsibility when you are in charge of creating your own class schedule and studying schedule. You can build your own class and studying schedule, you are responsible for sticking to it. There is no strict attendance policy forcing you to go to set lecture times you just need to be strict with yourself to actually sit down for an online lecture when you plan to. This may seem like a little too much responsibility if you are the type to procrastinate on everything, but taking an online course is the perfect opportunity to learn how to practice self-control. When you have control over when you have class because of an online course and learn how to stick to the schedule you set in order to not fall behind, it will help you in other classes that arent online as you get to use the self-control youve learned to stay on top of other class schedules. When it comes to registering for next terms classes, consider registering for an online course if its offered for the classes you need. While unconventional, online courses have plenty of value, especially for busy college students that are seeking better control of their own schedule.

Do inspired by programmes inspire our education

Do inspired by programmes inspire our education Historical fiction programmes are currently big business. Over the last couple of years a glut of programmes 'based on' or 'inspired by' true events have taken over the airwaves from the rise of the Roman Empire in Rome to the lives of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in Desperate Romantics. However, the programme which has caused the most stir in this field is The Tudors, based on the life of Henry VIII. The Tudors has been the subject of endless debate amongst History tutors, English tutors and the population in general. It sticks loosely to the facts, in that the wives, children and courtiers are all present and correct, but takes massive liberties in narrative. In the season recently finished on BBC 2 Henry should be in his fifties, bloated and in constant agony. Instead he is still in his twenties and looks like an underwear model. Clearly this is not a documentary, but it is engaging to a wide audience and its popularity has raised the profile of this key period in English history. Possibly the strength of The Tudors is its 'inspired by' tag. This is exactly what this programme does: it entertains viewers, most of whom are well aware that poetic licence is in full effect, and then inspires them to go and look up the truth behind the story. The same can be said of most programmes of this nature. A recent example was a surge in visitor numbers to a J.W Waterhouse Pre-Raphelite exhibition at the Royal Academy in London following the BBC's screening of Desperate Romantics. It seems that historical dramas - even those embellished for dramatic effect - have a role to play in education.

Organic Chemistry Tutor - Rotational Energy

Organic Chemistry Tutor - Rotational EnergyRotational energy is one of the important concepts in organic chemistry. A rotary device is simply a material that has an ability to move. Many times it can move in three dimensions. In other words, it can rotate in one direction but not the other directions.Since rotational energy is so prevalent in organic chemistry, and it involves the molecules, it makes sense that the organic chemistry tutor would cover this concept thoroughly. However, there are many different concepts in organic chemistry, so there is no way you could cover everything in one short lesson.Therefore, the organic chemistry tutor will generally guide students through a lecture format that is focused on one or two concepts that they are most familiar with. After this lecture, the tutor will introduce their topics. By the time they have covered several topics, the organic chemistry tutor will introduce another topic for the student to review.The organic chemistry tutor will also use different ways to help their students learn the concept of rotational energy. The most common form of this is to actually show examples of rotational energy from the lab. One example of this would be showing students something like a rotor device, or if they wanted to see it in action they could watch someone build a rotor device. This example should not be too hard to understand, because rotors are often used in machinery to rotate the parts.Another way that the organic chemistry tutor could be used would be to direct students towards new concepts. Some people may not understand how rotational energy could be created or transformed, so a tutor could help them understand it. They could also show examples of how rotational energy was used to create chemical reactions in the laboratory.So if you find that your organic chemistry teacher is not doing a good job in introducing concepts or showing examples, then try looking for an organic chemistry tutor online. They will be muc h more than an old friend who knows about organic chemistry, they will have a wealth of knowledge and will be able to give you tips and tricks on how to best improve your organic chemistry.The organic chemistry tutor will be able to show you various ways of converting rotational energy into mechanical energy in order to move the molecules. With the right tutor you will be able to solve organic chemistry problems quickly and easily.
