trever interview a scientist

wegener interview
me: hello Mr.wegner thanks for being on my show.
wegener: no problem
me: so what is your theory called
wegener: its called continental drift
me: can you explain it
wegener:sure Continental drift is when the continents slowly move across the earths surface
me: was this always what scientist excepted
wegener: no
me: so what was the theory before yours
wegener: before my theory scientists thought thew earth was shrinking and cooling.
me: how does that explain landforms though
wegener: land form were like wrinkles on the earth because they viewed the crust like skin and when it shrank it wrinkled
me when did the scientist finally except your theory.
wegener: around the 1950s
me: when did you first propose this idea
wegner: in 1912
me: why didn't anyone else believe you
wegner: i couldnt demonstrate a mechanism for it.

Michael M - Volcano Death

Chapter 1: Last days


I can tell today was going to be a really cool day finally going to graduate from high school and finally going to college no more kid activity’s ,like going on field trips, being in high school and not being able to say crap. Finally growing up being called an adult just can’t wait to its 3:00!! But for now just have to deal with all my immature family.
“Graduation day”!! Screams the teenagers as they run all over town.

Chapter 2: The new house

Its already been 3 years since I’ve been gone from home and I already miss those crazy parents. At lease I have my own house and live in Hawaii, the nicest place in the world…for me at lease. “Come on taco”, as I call my pet boxer. As I go to the dog beach I see a group of people screaming, “RUN!!”. At that time I knew something was wrong.

Chapter 3: The Hospital

As I heard everyone screaming I still walked over to see what the fuse was all about as I run to see the other side I look up and see a life guard tower fall over my head landing on me……………………

The Next Day…..

“Get me the knife”, Says the doctor. “Where am I ?”, I said while in excruciating pain. Then I feel asleep….3hours later……While checking out of the hospital I walked out then drove home. The doctor said I needed to rest and that I might not make it. I look in the mirror and new I wasn’t going to survive.

Chapter 4: Bad Days

Every night I’d have the same dream of me dead but under the sea it’s already been a year since the Hawaii disaster I thought I might make it but ended up not…Next the cops find me dead then they here, “HUUU!!”, then water explodes out of my mouth…..

To be continued…..

Nathaniel and Esmeralda

You are the lava in my soul
You make my volcano
Explode. Sometimes I am dome
And active when you make me mad you
Take my ashes. My lava is burning like
Melted rocks of fire when I am sad you
Make me glad when I have a big mess you make
I turn to a volcano

Your are the lava in my soul you make
Me lose control sometimes I want to
Explode. When I am worried my
Ashes go away and make turn to
Stone of a volcano you make my soul
Treble like a earthquake when
My feelings are hurt I share like
Two plates trembling
Together

When I am nervous the world shakes
Because the plates separate sometimes
I am dome and then I explode when
I am active you hear me tremble the
Mountains shake when I stop the floor with
My feet when I dance volcanoes explode
Magma, magma, magma, magma

What I know about chemistry: chemistry is: Acid:A substance that produces H+(aq)ions in aqueous solution. Strong acids ioniz completly or almost completly in dilute aqueous solution. Week acids ionize only slightly.

G3NNY (:

WHAT I KNOW:
COOKING,ELEMENTS,PROPERTIES OF MATTER,ATOMS


I WANT TO KNOW
WHO INVENTED IT AND WHO INVENTED THE MOST POPULAR EVENTS

yesenia


WHAT I KNOW

i dont know anything about chemistry.

WHAT I WANT TO KNOW

what is there to know?

WHAT IV LEARNED

nothing so far

Manuel Hernandez


WHAT I KNOW

I know how to make water
I know a few elements of the periodic table
I also know that the egyptians started it
I also know that Chemistry is also known as chemical substances
I also know that energy is a part of Chemistry

What i want to know ??????????????????????

I want to know what is a chemical bond
I also want to know what is a Redox
I also want to know what is phase
I also want to know what is a mole
And i want to know all the elements

What i learned



Edgar


I know what makes up water and I know a few elements of the periodic table such as oxegen, hydrogen, and carbon those are the only elements I am sure of. I also know that acid is a chemical just like nitros oxide there is also that the hardest known mineral to man is diamand. Also I know about atoms like electrons and neutrons. What I want to know is a few more elements of the periodic table combinations of chemicals that will create a crazy reaction because of those mixtures. I aslo want to know things about space not specific things but like things about constilations or comets or meteors.

Chemistry:The meaning of the word Chemistry is the study of matter and energy and the interactions between them .Chemistry is the study of matter and energy and the interactions between them. This is also the definition for physics, by the way. Chemistry and physics are specializations of physical science. Chemistry tends to focus on the properties of substances and the interactions between different types of matter, particularly reactions that involve electrons. Physics tends to focus more on the nuclear part of the atom, as well as the subatomic realm. Really, they are two sides of the same coin..

What i would like to know about chemistry :Is who invented chemistry and what are some of the most popular elements of this subject

ELIZABETH

know:cooking.elements.property of matter
want to know:who invented chemistry
and wat are the most popular events

Chris Rodriguez, Chemistry

Chemistry: to mix things together or combine things together. Example: when a paintball gun shoots a paintball, the paintball flies out of the gun. Or when you make orange juice, just use orange and water and mix it and it becomes orange juice. Or when you cook food in the kitchen of how the food changes and turns delicous. When you put a mentos in the soda (coke) the reaction in the soda makes the soda erupted out of the soda bottle like a volcano.
