Why is governmental funding of research important

2 answers:

4 0

Getting government research is very important because you would be able to get ahold of the important resources that you need to et the best reseacrh possible. Also when you find out anything that is a breakthrough the government will be able to use that for the people and you would be responsible for the betterment of the general public. Hope this helps :).

here are five ways

Here is full information

1. Research is good for the economy

Successful businesses thrive due to research and development. Almost every big industry you can think of does research to innovate their companies. Additionally, federally funded research helps the economy grow because it opens up job opportunities. You can benefit, too - if you and the right creative minds get together, an idea can become lucrative if the funding is there to help you pursue it.

2. The founders of Google graduated from federally funded PhD programs

I feel like I don't need to explain this. However, I will for the sake of argument. These people, namely, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, were supported by the National Science Foundation to get their education. This certainly contributed to their success in making the world's largest search engine. Page and Brin are great examples of federally funded education paying off. Who knows how different modern life would be if they didn't have the opportunity to work on their idea?

3. Research has always had a benefit to society, otherwise it wouldn't be funded in the first place

Research grants aren't just handed out like candy. Scientists asking for these grants have to prove that the research they wish to conduct is actually worth paying for and will ameliorate society in some way. Sally can't ask the government for $13M just to turn a penny silver. The National Science Foundation only accepts about 27.5% of the proposals they receive each year. If you want better healthcare, technology or just a more advanced society, support government research funding!

4. Climate Change is real

Whether you like it or not, it is. We need scientists to research solutions to this problem so that our future relatives can live without the fear of having to adapt to a dying planet. There isn't necessarily money to be made in fighting climate change, and that is why we need organizations like the EPA to do so.

5. Death due to cancer has declined because of research

Cancer research is the main focus of many science majors today and without government fellowships and grants, cancer treatment wouldn't be nearly as advanced as it is today. Additionally, some cancer foundations are making a profit off of donations, but if we continue to use federal funds for cancer research then we may find a cure sooner than a for-profit organization would, and the money may be used more responsibly.

Need help asap with this chemistry if someone could help me

Burka [1]

Answer:

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

Structure Number Two would likely be the most stable structure.

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

The N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion. See explanation.

Explanation:

When calculating the formal charge for an atom, the assumption is that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally between the two bonding atoms. The formula for the formal charge of an atom can be written as:

$\text{Formal Charge} \\ = \text{Number of Valence Electrons in Element} \\ \phantom{=}-\text{Number of Chemical Bonds} \\\phantom{=} - \text{Number of nonbonding Lone Pair Electrons}$ .

For example, for the N atom in structure one of the first question,

N is in IUPAC group 15. There are 15 - 10 = 5 valence electrons on N.
This N atom is connected to only 1 chemical bond.
There are three pairs, or 6 electrons that aren't in a chemical bond.

The formal charge of this N atom will be $5 - 1 - 6 = -2$ .

Apply this rule to the other atoms. Note that a double bond counts as two bonds while a triple bond counts as three.

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

In general, the formal charge on all atoms in a molecule or an ion shall be as close to zero as possible. That rules out Structure number one.

Additionally, if there is a negative charge on one of the atoms, that atom shall preferably be the most electronegative one in the entire molecule. O is more electronegative than N. Structure two will likely be favored over structure three.

Similarly,

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

Assuming that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally (which is likely not the case,) the nitrogen atom in this molecule will carry a positive charge. By that assumption, it would attract an anion.

Note that in reality this assumption seldom holds. In this ion, the N-H bond is highly polarized such that the partial positive charge is mostly located on the H atom bonded to the N atom. This example shows how the formal charge assumption might give misleading information. However, for the sake of this particular problem, the N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion.

inessss [21]

Answer:

Switch the coordinates and change the sign of the second one by multiplying it by negative 1.

Explanation:

Here are some examples and a more general way to understand the problem.

Consider the point (1,1), a 90 degree rotation clockwise about the origin would move it into the 4th quadrant.

The new point is (1,-1) , similarly (-4,2)-> (2,4), (-4,3)-> (3,4)

We take a point p= (x,y) the the result of rotation p 90 clockwise about the orgin is a new point p'=(x',y')= (-y, x). .

In the case of p=(1,0) the new point is p'= (0, -1)

One can use a matrix where the first row is cos(a), sin(a) and the second row is

-sin(a) cos(a) for any clockwise rotation of a degrees about the origin.

If we let a=90 degrees we have

[0 1] as the first row and [-1 0] as the second row. So the matrix is:

|0 1|

|-1 0|

Call that matrix M

So a point p= (x,y) can be multiplied by M as follows Mp=p' where p' is the rotated point.

If p=(-4,2) then Mp

is M(-4,2) which after matrix multiplication means x'=0*-4+1*2=2 and y'=-1*-4+0*2=4

So p'=(2,4)

Try it with (1,0)

x'=1*0+0*1=0

y'=-1*1+0*1=-1

so p'=(0,-1) and (1,0)->(0,-1)

How about the point on the y axis (0,1), it should go to the point (1,0)

0*1+1*1=1 and -1*0+0*1 gives you the pont (1,0) ( we don't see the negative sign because -0 is just 0)
