Wilhelm WUNDT Father of psychology, wanted to establish the study of the mind as a science. Analyzed the mind in terms of its basic components [STRUCTURALISM] William JAMES Prof of psych, philo and physiology at Harvard. Was a “big-picture” person and liked to look at things as a whole [FUNCTIONALISM] Wolfgang KOHLER Researched apes and…
Igneous rocks crystallize from molten silicate material called magma that forms at high temperatures and pressures deep in the Earth. Magma rises through the crust and either reaches the surface by volcanoes (extrusive) or cools below surface (intrusive). How Magmas Evolve – according to Bowen’s Reaction Series: discontinuous (different molecular structures of olivine [single tetrahedra],…
Major Plot Details It starts off where Nick wakes up and goes to visit Gatsby at his mansion. Gatsby tells nick that he waited for Daisy all night and nothing happened. Gatsby doesn’t want to leave Daisy. Gatsby then tells Nick about how he met Daisy and that he loved her for who she is…
Plot This is the main chapter in the book, in this chapter it’s about Daisy inviting over Gatsby, and writing other people there so it won’t look suspicious. Daisy also invites Nick Carraway, and Jordan Baker over for lunch too. Everyone finds the weather unbearably hot, and they decide to go into town. They stay…
Plot Details The long awaited meeting between Jay Gatsby and Daisy finally occurs in this chapter Nick tells Gatsby that he will be inviting Daisy for tea and Gatsby agrees to come but he wants everything to be perfect for her arrival (i.e. He cuts Nick’s lawn for him) Daisy arrives at Nick’s and Gatsby…
Summary Our narrator Nick is at Gatsby’s party, full of people he is certain do not even know Gatsby on a personal level “Those who accepted Gatsby’s hospitality and paid him the subtle tribute of knowing nothing whatever about him” (61). Nick lists, in detail, all the names of people who visited Gatsby’s house during…
Plot Summary Nick goes home to find Gatsby’s butler with an invitation to his party. Nick ventures to Gatsby’s house. He describes the party as hectic and lively. He also comments on how long it lasts. He also mentions how most attendees were not originally invited. Nick meets up with Jordan Baker at the bar.…
Plot Overview: In this chapter Nick goes with Tom to New York; however first Tom goes to see his mistress, Myrtle Wilson and her husband George Wilson at Mr. Wilson’s dismal auto shop. Once in the city Myrtle, Nick and Tom go to the apartment Tom keeps for his affair. After a very strange party…
Summary: In this chapter, we are introduced to Nick and his views on judgment. We get a visual description of Nick’s and Gatsby’s house. Nick meets Daisy and Tom; as well as Jordan Baker. Nick find out about Tom’s ‘women’ in New York. As Nick heads on home he sees Gatsby in the dark, looking…
The centerpiece of Buddhism is the doctrine of Interdependent Arising There are no independent, enduring selves that reap the benefits and suffer the misfortunes of life Persons are constituted by five sets of processes: Physical processes: nervous system, immune system, DNA, etc. Processes of sensation: responsible for feelings of pain and pleasure Perceptual processes: responsible…
The Earth’s climate is always changing, fluctuating from cool temperatures to warm temperatures throughout Earth History. Climate change has become a controversial issue that scientists are sceptical about. The present cause of global warming is part of a natural variation; however it is also greatly caused by human actions. Based on the evidence that I…
Minerals are solid chemical compounds that combine to form rocks. They are found in nature and vary in atomic bonding, molecular structure, and element composition, all of which determine their chemical, physical properties and permit their identification. ‑ An infinite number of chemical combinations are possible and almost 4000 natural minerals are known; however, only…
Charles I made numerous mistakes throughout his reign that led to a civil war within England and ultimately led to his death in January of 1649. As a ruler who believed in the Divine Right of Kings, Charles choose to rule without parliament and introduced new taxes to fund his rather pointless wars with Spain…
The property that describes a liquid’s thickness or thinness is called viscosity; high viscosity (thick) liquids differ from low-viscosity (thin) ones. You will also use the particle theory to explain some behaviours and properties of fluids—liquids and gases. A fluid is any substance that flows. The particle theory can explain why some substances flow while…
Different ionic compounds can release the same ions into solution. This ultimately means that different ionic compounds can affect the equilibrium of other ionic compounds. Common ion effect: The solubility of a salt can be reduced by the presence of another salt that has a common ion. Example: if NaCl is dissolved and HCl(aq) is…
The First Law of Thermodynamics: This is the law of conservation of energy. The total amount of energy in the universe is constant. Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. We have seen that energy can be transferred from a system to its surroundings and vice versa. During these processes no energy is created nor destroyed…
For the equilibria between an ionic solid and its dissolved ions, the equilibrium constant is called the solubility product Ksp. Ksp gives us information about the solubility of the compound. The lower Ksp is, the less soluble a compound is. Eg: CuCl2 Ksp=1.7×10-7 at 25°C NaCl Ksp= 3.8×101 at 25°C CuS Ksp=6.0×10-37 at 25°C Solubility:…
The reaction quotient is an equation that allows us to determine whether a system is at equilibrium or not. The equation is the same as the equilibrium law except the concentrations are initial concentrations instead of equilibrium concentrations. If Q = K the system is at equilibrium If Q > K, the system will shift…
Where K is the equilibrium constant, A,B,C,D are the equilibrium concentrations of aqueous/gaseous compounds, a,b,c,d are the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation. The equilibrium constant is related to the rate constants of the forward and reverse reactions. It is always the same for a given reaction at a given temperature. Since k changes with…
Developmental psychology examines changes in biological, physical, psychological, and behavioural processes over age Four issues guide developmental research: Nature and nurture – To what extent is our development the product of heredity (nature) or the product of the environment (nurture)? How do they interact? Critical and sensitive periods – Are some experiences especially important at…
