Graphite is formed from carbon atoms in layers. Graphite is black, shiny and opaque (not transparent). It's also a very slippery material. It's used in pencil leads â it slips easily off the pencil onto the paper and leaves a black mark. It's a component of many lubricants, for example bicycle chain oil.


-
The allotropes of carbon. Three forms (or 'allotropes') of pure carbon are diamond, graphite and buckminster fullerene (or 'buckyballs'). In all three allotropes the carbon atoms are joined by strong covalent bonds but in such different arrangements that the properties of the allotropes are very different.


Can Gases conduct Electricity?
Gases do conduct electricity, as all materials do. However, they conduct electricity so poorly that we consider them insulators. Electricity requires the movement of electrons. In a gas, these electrons are too dispersed to provided any measurable current. The lightning example is slightly different.


-
Each carbon atom is bonded into its layer with three strong covalent bonds. This leaves each atom with a spare electron, which together form a delocalised âseaâ of electrons loosely bonding the layers together. These delocalised electrons can all move along together â making graphite a good electrical conductor.


Does Carbon Graphite Conduct Electricity?
Carbon graphite conducts electricity. Graphite, an allotrope of carbon, has free electrons what carry charges from one place to another throughout the graphite. This process causes electricity flow. Continue Reading.


Does carbon fibre conduct electricity? Why or why not?
Carbon fiber does conduct electricity. It is not as good of a conductor as most metals, but if you build a structure with it, you will find that its electrical conduction can easily contribute to galvanic corrosion, by electrically connecting dissimilar metals. Or wet environment galvanic current carrying.


Does carbon fibre conduct electricity? Why or why not?
The Carbon Fiber can Conducts electricity. The Carbon fiber main composition is Carbon, 95% carbon content, the molecular structure is similiar to graphite. there is a similar metal electron gas on both sides.


Can Gases conduct Electricity?
Gas on its own cannnot conduct electricity but it can be made to conductor electricity by subjecting it under LOW PRESSURE and HIGH VOLTAGE. Gas can conduct electricity under two condition using a discharge tube; (1)low pressure (about ~0.01mmHg) (2)high voltage (>1000v)

HELLP SYNDROME
Treatment of HELLP Syndrome. Most often, the definitive treatment for women with HELLP Syndrome is the delivery of their baby. During pregnancy, many women suffering from HELLP syndrome require a transfusion of some form of blood product (red cells, platelets, plasma). Corticosteroids can be used in early pregnancy to help the baby's lungs mature.


HELLP Syndrome: Recognition and Perinatal Management
The D-dimer test may be a useful tool for the early identification of patients with preeclampsia who may develop severe HELLP syndrome. The mainstay of therapy is supportive management, including seizure prophylaxis and blood pressure control in patients with hypertension.


HELLP Syndrome: Recognition and Perinatal Management
10 Corticosteroid therapy should be instituted in patients with HELLP syndrome who have a platelet count of less than 100,000 per mm 3 (100 Ã 10 9 per L) and should be continued until liver function abnormalities are resolving and the platelet count is greater than 100,000 per mm 3 (100 Ã 10 9 per L).


HELLP Syndrome: Recognition and Perinatal Management
Between 38 and 93 percent of patients with HELLP syndrome receive some form of blood product. 15 Patients with a platelet count greater than 40,000 per mm 3 (40 Ã 10 9 per L) are unlikely to bleed. These patients do not require transfusion unless the platelet count drops to less than 20,000 per mm 3 (20 Ã 10 9 per L).


HELLP Syndrome: Recognition and Perinatal Management
HELLP, a syndrome characterized by h emolysis, e levated l iver enzyme levels and a l ow p latelet count, is an obstetric complication that is frequently misdiagnosed at initial presentation. Many investigators consider the syndrome to be a variant of preeclampsia, but it may be a separate entity.


-
The most common symptoms of HELLP syndrome include: 1  Headaches. 2  Nausea and vomiting that continue to get worseâ(This may also feel like a serious case of the flu). 3  Upper right abdominal pain or tenderness.


HELLP SYNDROME
HELLP syndrome is a life-threatening pregnancy complication usually considered to be a variant of preeclampsia. Both conditions usually occur during the later stages of pregnancy, or sometimes after childbirth. HELLP syndrome was named by Dr. Louis Weinstein in 1982 after its characteristics: H (hemolysis, which is the breaking down of red blood cells). EL (elevated liver enzymes). LP (low platelet count). HELLP syndrome can be difficult to diagnose, especially when high blood pressure and protein in the urine aren't present.


Overview
HELLP syndrome often occurs without warning and can be difficult to recognize. It can occur without the signs of preeclampsia (which are usually a large increase in blood pressure and protein in the urine). Symptoms of HELLP syndrome include: 1  Headache. 2  Vision problems. 3  Pain in the upper right abdomen (liver).


Reference and Value SemanticsÂ¶ Î
Reference and Value Semantics. With reference semantics, assignment is a pointer-copy (i.e., a reference). Value (or âcopyâ) semantics mean assignment copies the value, not just the pointer. C++ gives you the choice: use the assignment operator to copy the value (copy/value semantics), or use a pointer-copy to copy a pointer (reference semantics). C++ allows you to override the assignment operator to do anything your heart desires, however the default (and most common) choice is to copy the value.


Semantic Web
According to the W3C, The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries. The term was coined by Tim Berners-Lee for a web of data that can be processed by machines.


Semantic Web
Near the top of the Semantic Web stack one finds inference â reasoning over data through rules. W3C work on rules, primarily through RIF and OWL, is focused on translating between rule languages and exchanging rules among different systems.

Denim
Shuttle looms weave a narrower 30-inch fabric, which is on average half the width of modern shuttleless Sulzer looms. Consequently, a longer piece of fabric is required to make a pair of jeans from selvedge denim (approximately three yards).


How do you create a selvage edge on fabric?
You do it on the loom as you create the fabric. The selvage (self edge) is created when the cross yarn (weft) is turned back, going the other way around the last length thread (warp) on each side of the fabric being created on the loom. A selvage forms on each side of the panel.

Definition: The selvedge refers to the tightly woven edge of fabric as it comes off the bolt. The selvedge is the edges of the fabric which has manufacturer information. This area of the fabric is usually a bound edge that does not fray. The selvedge is the area where the crosswise grain fibers turn to come back up through the fabric. Many fabric selvedges have what appear to be pin holes in them and may not be the same as the print on the actual fabric.


The Rundown on Selvedge Denim â Whatâs It All About
Selvedge outseam on a pair of Companion Denim jeans. Selvedge goes by many spellings (selvage, self-edge, salvage) but it all equates to the same thingâthe self-binding edge of a fabric woven on a shuttle loom. That definition may sound a bit jargony, but trust me, all will soon make sense. Itâs also important to note that selvedge denim is not the same as raw denim.


Sewing with Selvages
A selvage is the finished edge of fabric, and it is tightly woven which means it does not fray. It runs the entire length of the fabric bolt. Selvages are very handy! Information is usually printed right along that edge. This can include the fabric designer, the company, and the name of the print or line. This makes it easy to identify the fabric.


Selvage
Part of a sheet of postage stamps from Australia showing selvage at the bottom. A selvage (US English) or selvedge (British English) is a self-finished edge of fabric. The selvages keep the fabric from unraveling or fraying. The selvages are a result of how the fabric is created.

The two most important properties of lava are its viscosity, and the amount of gases dissolved in the liquid rock. Let's look at each of these separately. Viscosity is a term that describes the fluidity or runniness of the lava. Some lavas are very runny, not quite like water, but more like warm honey or hot wax.When these lavas erupt, they flow for large distances before cooling enough to turn solid.olcanic eruptions may be quiet outflows of lava which are so peaceful that one can stand close enough to toss in pebbles (or leis; see figure) or so explosively violent that they blow mountains apart and blast everything within a hundred miles to smithereens (not recommended for close observation).


Types of volcano
Shield volcanoes. Shield volcanoes erupt thin, 'runny', lava that forms a gently sloping structure. Where a volcano produces low viscosity, runny, lava it spreads far from the source forming a volcano with gentle slopes. This type is called a shield volcano.Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa are shield volcanoes. They are the world's largest active volcanoes, rising nearly 9 km above the sea floor around the island of Hawaii.hen magma erupts at the surface it can form different types of volcanoes depending on the viscosity, or stickiness, of the magma, the amount of gas in the magma, and the way in which the magma reached the surface. Different types of volcanoes include stratovolcanoes, shield, fissure vents, spatter cones and calderas.

    Non-viscous lava is more runny and is more mafic (has more iron, less silica). Volcanoes with non-viscous lava are less explosive because the lava just runs out slowly and no pressure builds.The Hawaiian islands are formed from volcanoes with non-viscous lava.   Non-viscous lava is more runny and is more mafic (has more iron, less silica). Volcanoes with non-viscous lava are less explosive because the lava just runs out slowly and no pressure builds.

Shield Volcanoes. Because mafic lava is low viscosity, when it erupts from a volcano it flows downslope away from the vent, gradually cooling and crystallizing. Because of the relative ease of flow, basaltic volcanoes are broad, with gentle slopes. They don't have the stereotypical steep volcanic cone shape.he shape of a volcano is largely determined by the type of lava that has erupted, and importantly, its viscosity. Viscosity is a fluid's resistance to flow. Water, for example, is a low viscosity fluid. It is thin and runny.

Phosphates: PO3; the bonds are the key to their energy. The bond between the first phosphate and the adenosine is rock solid, just like in most covalent compounds. The bond between that and the second phosphate, however, is considerably less stable and thus more energetic. That's where ADP ends. But most cellular processes are all about ATP, adenosine triphosphate.

Carbohydrate loading
Carbohydrate loading, commonly referred to as carb-loading or carbo-loading, is a strategy used by endurance athletes, such as marathon runners, to maximize the storage of glycogen (or energy) in the muscles and liver.arbohydrate loading is generally recommended for endurance events lasting longer than 90 minutes. Many endurance athletes prefer foods with low glycemic indices for carbo-loading due to their minimal effect on serum glucose levels.


Running 101: What To Eat Before A Race
In a word: yes. When you eat pasta or potatoes, most of the carbohydrates are stored in your muscles and liver as glycogen â the form of energy your body can access most easily. Glycogen is what fuels your muscles during the race, especially during longer events.Run out of it, and bad things happen.Youâll feel sluggish and fatigued.o do this, athletes should aim to take in about 3 to 5.5 grams of carbohydrates per pound of body weight. So for a 150-lb athlete, the goal would be 450-825 grams of carbohydrates per day. While this might seem like a very wide range, it allows room for you to gradually increase your intake as race day approaches.


-
The amount of additional carbohydrate that is able to be stored in the body is dependent on diet and athlete conditioning level. For an untrained individual consuming a high carbohydrate (75%) diet, glycogen stores may increase up to 130g and 360g for liver and muscle respectively for a total storage of 490g.he amount of additional carbohydrate that is able to be stored in the body is dependent on diet and athlete conditioning level.

Method 1 of 2: Impact of Carbohydrate Loading. Energy is stored in the muscles in the form of glycogen. Carbohydrates are converted to glycogen during digestion for use by the body as fuel. Eat the same amount of calories as you would during training. 2  This is especially important for women carbohydrate loading. 3  Women may actually need to slightly increase the amount of calories they consume in a day for the loading to have an impact.


What Are the Disadvantages of Carbohydrate Loading?
Potential Weight Gain. Those who engage in carb loading will usually gain 1 to 3 pounds, notes dietitian Nancy Clark. This is due to the increased glycogen storage and the fact that for every ounce of stored carbohydrate, you also store around 3 ounces of water.owden claims that this is due to the spiking of blood sugar and insulin levels, which can leave you feeling lethargic and tired when they drop back down again. This can be a real disadvantage if you miss a meal during your carb loading phase or don't have access to carb-based foods and drinks during the event.


-
1. Know when to carbohydrate load. For carbohydrate loading to have an impact, you must be doing an endurance activity lasting longer then 90 minutes. The muscles typically store enough energy for 60 to 90 minutes of activity. Eat the same amount of calories as you would during training. 2  This is especially important for women carbohydrate loading. 3  Women may actually need to slightly increase the amount of calories they consume in a day for the loading to have an impact.


Carbohydrate-loading diet
Based on 4.5 grams of carbohydrates for each pound (10 grams per kilogram) of body weight, the meal plan consists of about 70 percent carbohydrates. You can tweak this sample carbohydrate-loading meal plan to suit your own tastes and nutritional needs. Keep in mind that 1 gram of carbohydrates has 4 calories.efinition.
