…teacher. We wanted our students to explore the Earth’s spheres and to model the anthropogenic effects on the hydrosphere. Like other teachers across the globe, becoming an online instructor practically…
…we separate the two effects? Sealing the containers to stop evaporation doesn’t work because that will stop crystallization as well. Why do I insist on the theory of crystallization heat?…
…something that is nice to have. If computer simulations are to rival real experiments, it must produce not only the expected effects but also the unexpected side effects. Capable of…
