"How Is Helium Produced?"
1143 Words - 5 Pages.... of Helium Production: Government involvement in helium conservation
dates to the Helium Act of 1925 which authorized the Bureau of Mines to build
and operate a large-scale helium extraction and purification plant. From 1929
until 1960 the federal government was the only domestic helium producer. In 1960,

private helium recovery industry, questions arise ....

transportation, or by finding a way to ease them out of utilization.

powered cars on the road should be limited. First of all, and most importantly,
automobiles are harmful to our environment. Automobiles run on gasoline, which
is a mixture derived from petroleum. Gasoline contains hundreds of different
hydrocarbons, or compounds containing the chemical elements carbon and
hydrogen(Gasoline). When the gas is burned in the engine of the car, several
byproducts result. These exhausts include hydrocarbons and oxides of three
elements: Carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur(Emissions). Tiny amoun ....

Photoperiodism
260 Words - 1 Pages.... photo periodism. It controls many activities, among them is the
flowering of plants. The ability to respond to day length is linked to an
inner, light-sensitive circadian rhythm.
In the temperate zones, day lengths during the natural 24-hour cycle
vary with the seasons. In winter and spring, the period of light
lengthens; in summer and autumn, it shortens. Plants in these zones
undergo alternate 12-hour phases of light sensitivity. During one 12-hour
phase, decreasing exposure to light induces a short-day reaction. For
example, deciduous trees under the influence of the shorter days of fall
drop their leaves. During the other 12-hour phase, more exposure to light
creat ....

The History Of Carbon
1117 Words - 5 Pages.... other elements its
color can range from pastels to black. Diamond is a poor conductor of heat and
electricity. Until 1955 the only sources of diamond were found in deposits of
volcanic origin. Since then scientists have found ways to make diamond from
graphite and other synthetic materials. Diamonds of true gem quality are not
made in this way (Beggott 3-4).
Graphite is another form of carbon. It occurs as a mineral in nature, but it
can be made artificially from amorphous carbon. One of the main uses for
graphite is for its lubricating qualities. Another is for the "lead" in pencils.
Graphite is used as a heat resistant material and an electricity conductor. It
is ....

PyroTechnics
484 Words - 2 Pages.... effects are regulated at the federal, state and local level.
In general, all are explosives, but not all explosives are . Class A explosives (high explosives) are materials like dynamite and Primacord which may detonate even if unconfined. Pyrotechnic special effects materials are Class B explosives. They will burn, but not explode unless confined. Examples are black powder and pellet powder, safety fuses, igniters, igniter cord, fuse lighters, Class B special fireworks, and Class B composite solids propellants. Class C explosives are common fireworks. Note that short lengths of Primacord may be classified as Class C under certain conditions. Both Class B and C expl ....
