Thank You Mr. Edison! History of Electricity in the
U.S.
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) Prior to the electric light bulb,
illumination was by fire from candles, kerosene
and oil lamps, and coal-gas jets. With the advent
of electricity, the advantages of electric lamps
for interior lighting over flickering, sooty, open
flames were readily apparent, and demand for
electricity skyrocketed. The excitement and
enthusiasm over electricity's beginnings could be
heard from one coast to the next. (Newspaper
accounts are used as reporting tools) Bibliography

The Chemistry of Cocaine and Its Effects
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 10 page paper discussing the history, chemistry and effects of cocaine and its usage in Western society. Originating in 1860 in Western society, cocaine has been used extensively as a recreational drug. Synthetic cocaine is now produced because of the increased effort in the restrictions of obtaining drug from its natural source. Recently researchers have found that the dopamine hypothesis can account for the psychological effects of the drug while the physiological effects include tachycardia, hypertension and renal failure.

The Chemistry of Water
[ send me this paper ]
A 8 page description of water and the chemical properties that make it so unique. The author details the chemical structure
of water and how this structure determines its behavior in response to temperature and in response to other substances. A brief history on
temperature measurement with specifics of the distinction between the Fahrenheit scale, the Celsius scale, and the Kelvin scale is provided. The chemical process that occurs when "hard" water is subjected to boiling temperatures is illustrated with the use of chemical formulas. Bibliography
lists 6 sources.
