Determining Empirical and Molecular Formulas (Screencast)
Learners follow a four-step process to determine the empirical formula of a compound from the masses of its constituent elements. The molecular formula is determined in a fifth step using the molecular weight of the compound.
In this animated learning object, users view the process of entering a formula in an Excel spreadsheet. Several different methods and associated examples are given.
In this interactive object, learners examine the structural-functional, social-conflict, and symbolic interaction analyses of sports. A mind map and quiz questions are included.
Learners read an explanation of the RL time constant and examine the formula for calculating the instantaneous current value. The current is graphed as it climbs to maximum or drops to zero. Note* In the formulas in this module, the Greek letter epsilon should be the mathematical constant 'e'.
This interactive activity represents the grid modeling technique, a heuristic model for choosing a centralized location for a manufacturing or distribution center within a supply chain network. The formula calculates a central point between the suppliers and the markets. This object requires the latest version of Flash Player.
