The Right Solution For Your Percent Yield

The Right Solution For Your Percent YieldA lot of people say that you can not answer the most difficult questions if you lack the necessary knowledge and the ability to use the correct analytical methods. Unfortunately, that is the truth because even the most experienced chemists have questions they wish to be answered before filing for the tenure and promotion to the next level. The truth is that you must have the required skills in order to maximize your capacity to use analytical methods for the creation of solutions for the most serious of your chemical problems.Percent yield analysis has become an integral part of many courses. It allows you to measure the yield of your solution and present it to your teacher. It is the basis for the composition and the remaining percentages of the compounds. In addition, it helps in simplifying the problem solving process, making the problem solving and analysis process much simpler.You have two options when it comes to your percent yield analy sis. Either you decide to run it yourself by using a solution or you go for an automated solution that works out to less than a second. It works by analyzing your solution and the other compounds present. There are two approaches you can take here.If you want to do the analysis without going through the trouble of making the analyzer, you can buy an analyzer from a vendor. Analyzers are expensive and you will be using it for a longer period of time. They need some adjustments to get used to your system and you might not get used to it. The most recommended approach is to use a solution.However, you have to know that there are several drawbacks in using a solution. You have to be sure that you have the right measurements in your analysis, you have to find a reputable vendor to sell your analyzer and you have to make sure that the analyzer does what you want it to do. It can not always work as it is supposed to. One of the most common types of analyzers is the bad box analyzer, which simply indicates a low percentage of the best compound. That can never be a good thing because you might end up paying for the other compounds at the wrong price.Another problem with a solution is that it can be easy to make your own error. The analyzer might not be able to figure out the exact amount of compound you will require so you might have to pay for it later. Moreover, the reaction might not be as accurate if the solution contains contaminants. All these factors combine to determine the cost effectiveness of the solution.This is why you need to choose a solution that works according to your needs and expertise. The chances of making a mistake while using a solution are very high because you are doing the analysis on your own. It is best if you hire a certified analytical chemist to do the analysis for you. It would be best if you consider some of the challenges you might encounter when using the solution and answer them in the end to find the best solution.

Short Sightedness - Tutor Hunt Blog

Short Sightedness Further education increases the risk of short sightedness Further education increases the risk of short sightednessUniversitiesA study conducted by the School of Optometry and Vision Sciences at Cardiff University, and recently published in the British Medical Journal, makes an astonishing claim. The longer you spend in education the greater chance you have of developing myopia. Put in simple terms, this means that the more time you spend at school or university, the greater the chances are that you will need to wear glasses. Professor Jez Guggenheim, who was involved in the study, was quite frank about the link between schooling and short sightedness: `Our study provides strong evidence that length of time spent in education is a causal risk factor for myopia.` `Policymakers should be aware that the educational practices used to teach children and to promote personal and economic health may have the unintended consequence of causing increasing levels of myopia and later visual disability as a result.` Since there is a known link between severe myopia and loss of sight, the result of the study allows this astonishing statement to be made: the more time you spend in education, the more likely you are to go blind. The study also predicts the rate of ocular deterioration, and actually says that if a student has 20/20 vision at the age of 16, by the time they graduate from university they might well need glasses to legally drive. Ask people what they think an intelligent person looks like, and they will probably describe a range of physical characteristics. Tall, thin, perhaps wild unruly hair might be amongst the characteristics cited - but most people will say the person wears glasses. The bespectacled boffin is a of course a cliche - one that features prominently in movies. Woody Allen, the intelligent, neurosis ridden character, can hardly be imagined without his thick black spectacles. Dr. Egon Spengler, the smart one out of the four ghostbusters, is another glasses wearer; and of course superman has to do little more than put on his spectacles to become the nerdy, anodyne Clark Kent. The cliche continues into the world of cartoons: Velma from Scooby Doo - is the only character in the show wearing glasses, and the only character, so it seemed to me as a child, possessing a modicum of sense. Professor Frink and Professor Farnsworth, from the Simpsons and Futurama respectively, sport eyeglasses so thick as to be completely opaque. Millhouse, another Simpsons character, and the archetype nerd, wears glasses throughout the show; and Chuckie, the timid brainiac from Rugrats wears spectacles from infancy. It`s certain a hackneyed cliche that glasses wearers are more intelligent than those with perfect vision, but the Cardiff study suggests that myopia can be caused by long hours spent staring at text on screens, and scrutinising textbooks. With the growing prevalence of phones and tablets in people`s lives, surely today our eyesight is under greater strain than ever. It is estimated that by 2050 as much as half the world`s population, around 5 billion people, will be short sighted, compared to 1.4 billion people today; and about 10% of them will suffer from severe myopia, a condition that can lead to blindness. Though many might doubt the link between education and eyesight problems, one only has to look at countries like South Korea, China and Singapore - places that have an intense teaching schedule, including longer school hours, and evening study classes - where about 90% of students leave school at 18 with glasses. At the end of primary school as many as half of children in these countries suffer from myopia, compared to just 10% of British school children. The authors of the study were not too forthcoming in offering solutions to this problem. Other than saying children should be spending more time outdoors, they didn`t offer any practical methods of dealing with their rather dire predictions. Outdoor lessons may sound like a lot of fun - children out in the fresh air, surrounded by nature - but it really would be a logistical nightmare. As an ex teacher myself, I can testify to the necessity of having a class surrounded by four walls. Goodness knows how many children would be wandering off into the undergrowth during a taxing maths or English lesson. The study was certainly an extensive one, involving nearly 68,000 men and women who were registered with the UK Biobank programme. Drawing on a wealth of information, such genetic markers linked to myopia, and the amount of time subjects had been in education, the study concluded that more time spent in education leads to a `rising prevalence of myopia.` I have read through the study, and confess that it is a little too technical for me. I do wonder how anyone can ascertain a `genetic predisposition to higher levels of education,` but I must bow brighter minds than my own. Perhaps the study will have ophthalmologists around the country rubbing their hands in glee, but we certainly should not let it be used as a tool to detract from the importance of education. 20 months ago0Add a Comment

6 Types of Coworkers in Every Office

6 Types of Coworkers in Every Office photo via pexels The suck-up Every office has that person who constantly tries to make themselves look good in front of the boss. Of course, everyone wants to do well at their job and receive recognition, but this coworker is over the top and quite frankly â€" annoying. The most important thing to the suck-up is that the superiors witness his or her achievements. In reality, everyone else in the office probably notices it more. Don’t be this coworker. Instead of kissing up to the manager, let your work ethic do the talking.  Forbes  reports that “good managers know that their best employees are people who take responsibility for their work, step in to solve problems when they spot them, tell the truth about good news and bad news, and support their teammates.” Your boss is more likely to think highly of you for being a standout employee rather than for how buddy-buddy the two of you are. The one that is too blunt While reading this, you probably had at least one person that you work with come to mind. The extremely blunt coworker says whatever is on his or her mind, often with no filter. The blunt coworker may regularly curse, among other things that catch you off guard. This person does not seem to have a care about the possible consequences in regards to professional language in the workplace. The blunt coworker can be hard to deal with every day, particularly if you tend to keep to yourself. The best thing to do is to not let them get a reaction out of you and continue to do your job. The gossiper Some people just can’t function without talking about others, even at their jobs where they have several other more important things to do. Sure, employees talk amongst each other about their personal lives, however, it is the gossipers’ priority. There may be more than one gossiper in your office, which makes things worse. Gossipers talks to you about others and talk to others about you. Nothing that you say or do is safe. Like the other types of coworkers, the gossiper just seems to keep getting away with their behavior without management noticing. photo via unsplash The one from another generation Do you have that coworker who is 2-3 times your age and just can’t seem to grasp the fact that you, someone in your late teens or early 20s, are working the same job as them? These people still look at our generation as children and they don’t believe that we can get the job done. This type of coworker treats you less than they treat everyone else or they may not even want to interact with you much at all. It is even worse if you quickly enter a position above them in your career. If the  generational differences  cause issues, it will create a negative work environment for you and for everyone. When will people accept diversity in the office and realize that times are changing? The weird one Most offices have that unusually introverted employee that most people struggle to try to communicate with. Maybe it’s that stereotypical IT guy that understands computers better than people, or maybe it is someone who is new to the job and nervous about meeting others. Nevertheless, the unusual coworker likely causes few issues unlike the rest of them. Although you may not have an interest in trying to befriend this person, going out of your way to be kind to them can have a positive impact on the office environment. The office comedian The office comedian can be a good thing and a bad thing, but every office has one. The office comedian’s goal is to have everyone think he or she is the funniest person ever. They are constantly cracking jokes, which can take some stress off your workday if you share the same type of humor. Laughing can even bring people closer and strengthen how they work together. According to BBC, “laughing together is something that improves team collaboration and stimulates innovation.” photo via unsplash Constantly goofing around with the office comedian can make you get behind on work if you allow it to. If you don’t find the office comedian funny, however, then you are likely going to be just as annoyed as you are with the other people in the office. If you are trying to fulfill any of the coworker types, the comedian is the best way to go. Compared to the other options, you would likely be less hated by your coworkers. Besides, everyone needs little ways to take their minds off the stress of the job. Whether you are starting your full-time career or working a part-time job, your workplace will have its stereotypical coworkers that get on your nerves. Sadly, in the working world, you can’t do much about it. At times, you will be forced to work with people you wouldn’t particularly choose to work with. The best thing you can do to have a positive work environment is to be yourself and think about how you interact with others in the office. Try not to fall into the category of a typical lousy coworker.

Studying Three Years Above Her Grade Level, This Student Helps Her Peers

Studying Three Years Above Her Grade Level, This Student Helps Her Peers Studying Three Years Above Her Grade Level, This Student Helps Her Peers Josie, 10-years-old, Math Level H, Reading Level G Josie is 10-years-old, studying three years above her grade level in the Kumon Program. In fact, she’s studying the same math material that her mom, who is an eighth grade teacher, teaches her students. Imagine that, a 10-year-old transforming equations, working with linear functions and simplifying monomials and polynomials. She’s well on her way to advanced algebraic expressions and she isn’t even in middle school yet. “Sometimes, when the math gets hard, I remind myself to stay focused and positive,” says Josie. “My mom shows her eighth grade students that I’m doing the same math as them, which is a good reminder for me that Kumon has brought me so far.” Josie shakes hands with Kumon North America president Minoru Tanabe. One of the things that Josie likes most about Kumon is the fact that she’s studying above her grade level. She says that many of her friends look to her for help with their homework. “Kumon has helped me in so many ways,” says Josie. “It has given me confidence in myself and that confidence also helps me help other students in my class, which I love to do.” Josie gives us a little insight into how Kumon has impacted her early childhood. How has Kumon helped you beyond academics? Kumon gives me confidence because I know how strong of a student it has made me. I know that I can do and learn anything if I do the work and practice daily. Kumon has taught me about the importance of focusing and to not be afraid of challenges, but to enjoy them and work through them because I know I can overcome anything. What keeps you motivated in Kumon? The thing that keeps me motivated is the fact that I am working hard to get ahead in school and to be the best that I can be academically. Knowing that my classmates come to me for help with their math and they see how much Kumon has taught me, motivates me to keep working hard to be the best that I can be and keep working to achieve my goals and the next level in Kumon.

The Origin of Language Development A Brief Overview of Language Development Theories

The Origin of Language Development A Brief Overview of Language Development Theories A Brief Overview of Language Development Theories Youre remarkable.Without prompting, you spent your first years making sense of the sounds around you.You turned gibberish into meaning.If you really stop to ponder it, its actually quite amazing.Think about it, how is it youre speaking the language or languages you do?Its a worthwhile question and one the linguistic and psychological communities have been exploring for decades.Theres good reason to look into that if youre currently trying to master a second,  third or even fourth language (if youre feeling really ambitious).Language development is a seriously complex topic, and its not easy finding a place to start studying it. But thats why were hereâ€"to get you started on the basics.This post will start you on the road to uncovering the important figures, theories and facts youll most likely hear over and over again in your language learning journey.Deep breaths everyone, as we delve into the fascinatingly complicated world of language development. Why Study Language Development Theories?Our ability to acquire and continue to learn a language is something we often take for granted. Most of us dont give much thought to the physical and mental processes our brains undergo to pick up and utilize language.Have you thought much about how were able to use simple symbols and sounds to communicate complex ideas? Have you really considered how and why this all came about? Of course you have! Youre a dedicated language learner.You might find that studying the theories surrounding this topic might help with your own learning experience. Its difficult for some to find a learning method that works for them, especially when it comes to language. Nowadays were surrounded by an abundance of learning resources playing on different language theories and known learning styles.Thats why its important to look at the process of learning itself, so you can more easily find and/or develop a method that works for you.A Brief Overview of Language Development TheoriesThe most promin ent figure in language development is Noam Chomsky, whos been studying this ever since his days at MIT. Then there are those who have offered their take on language development from a psychological perspective. This includes psychologists such as B.F Skinner, Jean Piaget and Vygotsky.Well be giving you a brief overview of their theories and perspectives. Fair warning to all: Theres a lot of psychology here, so be prepared for a bunch of fancy new terms (well explain them briefly as we go, of course).Chomskys TheoriesNoam Chomsky has been studying and developing his theories since the 1950s. In his book  Aspects of the Theory of Syntax published in 1965, he has pushed forward the fundamental observation that there are deep structures and surface structures in every sentence, no matter what language. This is the reason why you can form sentences with similar meaning using a theoretically infinite combination of words.Essentially, deep structures are the thoughts and meanings we want t o express and surface structures are the words, sounds and symbols we use to try and express them.Lets look at some examples. Take a look at the following sentence:Language development seems really complicated to me. I think language development is really complicated.Both express exactly the same thing using different words and a different word order. The deep structure is the same (the notion that language development is obviously not the simplest thing in the world), though the words used (surface structure) are different.The use of these words and their structures are refined over the course of time. It changes and evolves on the surface, but the deeper structures remain. This is a part of Chomskys transformational-generative grammar theory.Another important contribution Chomsky made to linguistic studies is the theory of universal grammar. He asserted that the human brain contains a mechanism for language acquisition, meaning that our languages share the same deeper structures d espite the largely superficial surface structures.This is why its possible for anyone to learn a foreign language, regardless of the complexity of its grammatical structure or script.B.F Skinners Behaviorist PerspectiveTackling the issue of language from a different perspective was B.F Skinner, the behavioral psychologist. Simply put, the behavioral perspective postulates that everything we do is dictated by our environment and that our behavior is a response to external stimuli through operant conditioning, the process through which behavior changes with positive and negative reinforcement.B.F Skinner theorized that language acquisition  is dictated by our environment and the positive or negative reinforcement we receive from it. Parents, for example, enforce correct usage of a word in children with positive facial or verbal reactions. They play larger roles in our verbal behavior,  a concept Skinner describes in his book. Verbal behavior introduces the concept of functions to word s, as well as meanings.For example, a child may know what to call a toilet, but they must also learn what the use of that word will allow them to acquire or express. Theyve heard their parents say this word, but what happens when they say it? Most likely, their parents take them to it.So in this case, the most basic function of the word is to express a need to use the bathroom. A pretty important thing to be able to express, wouldnt you say?Piagets Cognitive Development TheoryJean Piaget was another prominent psychologist who offered yet another take on language acquisition and development. His focus was on child development and the stages children go through to develop and learn.He asserted that children would only be able to fully grasp some concepts within specific  developmental stages, due to the fact that certain sections of the brain would only further develop at certain ages.For example, since the sensorimotor area develops first during the first two years of a childs life, children focus on their immediate surroundings, experimenting with the things around them by playing with them, biting them or throwing them.Throughout this stage, theyll take things apart, put things back together and explore the concept of things existing in and out of sight. By the end of it all, theyll be able to visualize things that arent there in front of them, which is arguably the most crucial part of this stage when it comes to language and communication.Next comes the preoperational stage in which children are able to develop their imagination and think in slightly more abstract ways. They begin to toy with symbols. Theyll use words in ways that arent generally accepted or understood. For example, they may use the word pillow to mean cloth purely because of the few shared characteristics between the two objects.They do this for egocentric communication. Anyone whos ever tried to communicate with a two-year-old will know that they arent all that interested in other perspec tives. Theyre too busy trying to explore their own mind, so dont take it personally.You may have noticed already that these concepts focus less on language and more on cognitive development during childhood and youd be right. That being said, its still important to know because Piaget did establish that language plays a huge role in cognitive development, chiefly in the way children use language throughout each stage.During the sensorimotor stage, children experiment with sounds, and language is mostly about the auditory aspects. They dont care about the meaning, they just like to create sounds. During the pre-operational stage, children use language to express themselves, but they cant really distinguish conversation from pure expression.During the concrete operational stage, children state facts and observations. Finally, during the formal operational stage, children are able to use language to express, discuss and debate abstract concepts.Vygotskys Constructivist Learning TheoryN ot completely unrelated was Vygotskys theory of social development. Its referred to as the constructivist perspective  and describes the concept of development through construction of thought and meaning.  To understand it completely, you first have to understand his perspective.It challenges the more widely-held concept of knowledge and proposes that knowledge is a construction of meaning unique to the individual. How a person grew up (their culture) will affect how they think.  He emphasizes the importance of others in our development (i.e., social interaction and guided learning).Vygotsky postulated that language develops similarly, but focused on the development of social speech, private speech and inner speech.Social speech is the language we use with others while private speech (talking to ourselves) is not meant to communicate with others (this happens around the age of three). Inner speech only really begins to appear around the age of six or seven with private speech being internalized.Its a complex idea that goes beyond the scope of this post, but children at this stage begin to internalize language and meaning and, as Vygotsky says, begin thinking in pure meaning.Suffice it to say that our relationship with language becomes increasingly more sophisticated and goes beyond the meaning of the words and into the feelings or ideas the words elicit.What These Language Development Theories Mean for YouTo be honest, weve only scratched the surface of these theories. Considering the impact theyve made on education, parenting and the academic world at large, we invite you to dive deeper by reading the many papers on each one.But what can you do with this newfound knowledge right now?In the same way that these theories have aided children and teachers in refining their learning and teaching techniques, you can use this knowledge to fine-tune your language-learning methods.With a better understanding of these theories and their roots, you can understand the met hod behind the madness of some learning programs. Is the approach youre using right now working for you?If we consider Chomskys ideas of universal grammar, we can say that all languages adhere to certain grammatical parameters (like word order). Our job is then to figure out those parameters by hearing example sentences and formulating the rules of the second language. With this approach, your study session would include analyses such as,In English, word order is subject + verb + object, but in (target language) itsOr should you try tackling grammar from another angle? For example, you might do that by spending time in a different environment where that foreign language is abundant as the constructivist perspective might suggest?Of course, if you cant go to another country, try immersing yourself in the language at home with a program like FluentU. FluentU is an online immersion platform that takes real-world videosâ€"like music videos, movie trailers, news and inspiring talksâ€"and turns them into personalized language learning lessons.What about those of you who are trying to find ways to teach your children a second language? Perhaps taking a look at Piagets developmental stages could help you figure out where your childs mind is focused and how best to introduce a new language to them.With so many theories out there concerning language development, see what works for you and which theories or perspectives youd like to explore.Itll make you a better language learner and, perhaps later on if you so choose, a better language teacher.

Why blogging is perfect for making money as an introvert - Introvert Whisperer

Introvert Whisperer / Why blogging is perfect for making money as an introvert - Introvert Whisperer Why blogging is perfect for making money as an introvert Ugh, that natural barrier for us introverts; the one that seems to stop us from reaching our goals and dreams. Why does it exist? Does it even have to exist? Sometimes I find that I’m creating my own barriers and making life harder for myself. But, when I found blogging, I realized I didn’t have to put myself as ‘out there’ as I first thought. And with this, Ive found that blogging has helped me to shoot down the stereotype that introverts can’t be successful! In fact, I found blogging to be such an excellent solution to so many problems. Not only has it enabled me to start my own business, but by only needing to rely on myselfâ€"for the most partâ€"to be able to recharge my batteries, to give me the confidence to succeed, has been a weight off my shoulders. In this article, my aim is to show you how blogging can do the same for you and how it can earn you money, in a step by step approach.   Please note: my assumption is that you’ve taken the necessary steps to get your blog set up and know the niche you’re in. Step 1: No expectations A more laid-back approach to blogging can serve you very well. The key to this is to NOT expect any income from blogging for at least 6 months. This is mostly valid since generating enough traffic to your blog to provide an income doesn’t happen overnight. Why so? Well, it’s difficult to establish yourself as an authority in an instant. Like most things, it takes time to provide enough value to the internet world before Google and other search engines deem your content as being viable for traffic i.e., in the form of increasing your rankings in SERPS (search engine results pages). Instead of creating instant pressure on yourself to achieve the status of being an overnight success, by taking this no expectations approach, as an introvert, I’ve found this to be highly beneficial. That fear of starting your own business needn’t be as scary as you think!

How To Play Bluegrass Guitar Common Fingerstyle Techniques

How To Play Bluegrass Guitar Common Fingerstyle Techniques Sign up successful Three-Finger Style Otherwise known as the Scruggs Style after banjo player Earl Scruggs who first popularized it, this fingerstyle employs a thumb pick, index finger pick, and middle finger pick to pluck individual strings on the guitar. The advantage over other picking styles is the speed at which experienced players can play arpeggios and string skipping runs without breaking rhythm. This gives the guitar a very percussive, lively sound that lends itself well to an ensemble setting. However, this isnt to say that players using this technique can only play single-note runs. Many experiment with combining this style with strumming via thumb pick or either finger pick. As always, you are free to play whatever you like! Three-finger style is versatile and popular but can be difficult for players with limited fingerstyle experience. When learning this style, try picking individual chord tones with a slow, consistent rhythm before speeding up as you are able. Using a metronome will greatly increase the effectiveness of these exercises because it will keep you honest! If you keep falling behind the beat, just turn it down and start slower. This kind of practice is the quickest way to become an amazing picker. Three-Finger Style Techniques Because many bluegrass fiddle tunes are in the key of C major, I have presented these exercises using C, F, and G chords to portray typical chord progressions. When you are learning how to play bluegrass guitar, it is wise to stick to a simple set of chords. It’s how you use them that matters. Three-String Runs The idea here is to use your thumb for the bass notes and your two fingers for the two high strings in each measure. If you pull it off, you can keep the rhythm strong with your thumb while filling out notes with your fingers. Try different chord tones to find the voicing that you like. Four-String Runs This exercise is almost identical the one above, except that the thumb is utilized not only for bass notes but also for a high string as well. Experienced bluegrass players learn to play in this style for the fastest of the fast songs. Make sure to start slow with that metronome! Two-Finger Style This variation of the Scruggs Style was favored by bluegrass guitar legend Lester Flatt. It omits the middle finger pick in favor of a simple thumb pick and index finger pick combination. Because of this simplicity, the two-finger style is easily adopted for purposes that resemble flat picking. The main idea is to use the thumb to pluck individual bass notes while strumming with the index finger. This is great for playing loud chords in a driving manner and is often used to carry the main harmony of the song. In addition, this style can be used to simulate bass lines in the absence of a bass player. But just like with Scruggs style, you are free to explore and find more ways to utilize this approach to playing bluegrass guitar. Here are some exercises I would recommend to become acquainted with the two-finger style. And don’t forget your metronome! Two-Finger Style Techniques Again, these figures are portrayed in C major for simplicity but you are not stuck here. Playing around with different chords will give you a better idea of what you and your guitar are capable of. Pluck-and-Strum This exercise is all about getting you acquainted with the capabilities of two-finger style. Specifically, it is about using your thumb to pluck the bass note of each chord before strumming two full chords with your index figure. Bluegrass ballads often call for this type of guitar arrangement. Fast Strum Now we’re getting to the fun part. Some bluegrass tunes are played at extremely fast tempos, and by speeding up the pluck-and-strum you just may manage to keep up. The key here is to play the chords almost as if you were flat picking with a normal guitar pick. The difference is that you can still use your thumb for the bass in two-finger style, but you will still most likely resort to strumming both up and down with your index finger. There’s no diagram for this one find a fast bluegrass song to play along to and try to keep up! (I usually use the song “Wait So Long” by Trampled By Turtles when I teach). Keep Practicing Some of these techniques may seem tricky at first, but don’t be discouraged. Practice at least ten minutes a day for two weeks and you’ll be seeing some serious improvement!
