Form Taps Only
Form Taps Only
If you place an iron nail in sealed tubes each with a different type of water which one will rust and why?

If you place an iron nail in sealed tubes with boiled water, normal tap water or air with a drying agent, rust forms only in the tube in which the nail is in normal tap water. Explain this observation.
*Help*??

you need 3 things in order for corrosion to take place:
-cathode and annode (in other words, 2 differing materials)
-current
-medium of contact

the nail will rust in normal tap water. a current is present in all scenarios. but in tap water, there are lots of extra minerals that arent present in treated or distilled water. these particles act as the cathode in this case, with the iron as the anode. the medium of contact is water.

now all you have to do is remove one of those conditions and corrosion will not occur. in the case with the boiled water, the water is clean and free of minerals and, therefore, cathode. in the case with the dry air, the transfer medium is removed. noticed that it says DRY air. if there is water in the air, then that acts as your medium.

hope this makes sense.

On Form


On Form


$34.95


On Form assesses both the legacy of Victorian aestheticism and the nature of the literary. It tracks the development of the word 'form' since the Romantics and offers readings of, among others, Tennyson, Yeats, Stevens, and Plath. Original readings of poetry are combined with a powerful argument about the nature of aesthetic pleasure. – ;What is form? Why does form matter? In this imaginative and ambitious study, Angela Leighton assesses not only the legacy of Victorian aestheticism, and its richly resourceful keyword, 'form', but also the very nature of the literary. She shows how writers, for two centuries and more, have returned to the idea of form as something which contains the secret of art itself. She tracks the development of the word from the Romantics to contemporary poets, and offers close readings of,. among others, Tennyson, Pater, Woolf, Yeats, Stevens, and Plath, to show how form has provided the single most important way of accounting for the movements of literary language itself. She investigates, for instance, the old debate of form and content, of form as music or sound-shape, as the ghostly. dynamic and dynamics of a text, as well as its long association with the aestheticist principle of being 'for nothing'. In a wide-ranging and inventive argument, she suggests that form is the key to the pleasure of the literary text, and that that pleasure is part of what literary criticism itself needs to answer and convey. – ;The drift of the book leaves me, as Leighton would wish, not persuaded of an argument but troubled by a question; the quality of her writing makes me realise how pleasurable a state of 'insecurity' can be. – Matthew Reynolds, Review of English Studies;With a Paterian surrender to the beautiful and a Jamesian reverence for the critical proprieties of tact and attentiveness, On Form goes about its work of inspecting the unfixing of meaning without wanting to fix or finalise. – Rebekah Scott, Essays in Criticism,;Leighton's light-footed readings are a constant delight, while managing to find new true things to say even about beauty in Woolf or rhythm in Yeats. – Stefan Collini, Times Literary Supplement;a riveting book about a word that none of the arts can do without but none of the arts can quite describe. – Adam Phillips, The Observer;wonderfully sensitive to the literary works and ideas under discussion…One may read this work for its ideas, but also with great pleasure because Leighton handles language so elegantly. Or rather, this remarkable book instructs us through its own practice how the dynamic expression of ideas may itself be a form of literary pleasure. – Michael D. Hurley;…deft and thoughtful as well as timely… Everything about On Form is judged and poised, with many things read beautifully and truly. – TLS

Force & Form


Force & Form

At a point in time when techno had become a bit exhausted in terms of musical development, Anthony Childs, the British techno producer who calls himself Surgeon, managed to push the decade-old genre forward with his Force & Form album. It was at this point in the late ’90s when techno songs had evolved into sincere tracks, short cycles of looped rhythms characterized by repetition and a lack of progression. Jeff Mills’ Purpose Maker releases such as Kat Moda had perfected this practice of producing music with DJs in mind rather than the home listener. The reason Force & Form can be seen as such a breakthrough rests in its status as a record just as appealing to home listeners as DJs. Child accomplishes this challenging task quite brilliantly. There are four sides of vinyl on Force & Form, meaning that the four songs on the album each get an entire side to itself. Drop the needle at the outermost groove and the spinning record will emanate a ten-minute adventure into cycling tribal techno rhythms with heavy percussive bass. Unlike the Maurizio records, which also spin for epic lengths, the songs on Force & Form actually progress through actual movements, where rhythms change and new arrangements construct themselves as if two different techno records are being seamlessly mixed. Each of these four songs begin with several minutes of repetitive techno rhythms similar to the sort of tracks Child recorded for his Basictonalvocabulary album. After a few minutes of locked groove-type sounds, the songs then shift with the low-frequency bass rumbles being eclipsed by tranquil atmospheric tones. Soon the serene subtly of these high-frequencies gets shattered by the slowly growing construction of the next monolithic percussive hailstorm that will carry listeners through the final few minutes of the song. As if the rhythms weren’t marvelous enough — challenging even Mills himself as the latest contender for king of techno dancefloors — Child’s ability to craft brave multi-sectioned epics makes this an even more incredible album than anything he had accomplished up until this point. His debut Tresor album from two years earlier, Basictonalvocabulary, only hinted at his potential to become one of the genre’s most important producers. ~ Jason Birchmeier, Rovi
