Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 Kerosene is a liquid made of carbon-based molecules that, on the atomic scale, looks like spaghetti. Olive oil is a gloopy liquid made of carbon-based molecules that, on the atomic scale, looks more like twirled spaghetti.
#2 The Persian physician and alchemist Rhazes developed special chemical procedures to extract kerosene, a liquid made of carbon-based molecules that looked like twirled spaghetti. It was flammable and produced a smokeless flame. It would take another thousand years for the Persians to discover an alternative source of energy and tax revenue.
#3 The structure of liquids is intermediate between the chaos of gas and the static prison of solids. This allows them to flow and maintain a flame, which is a basic principle of liquids.
#4 The structure of liquids is intermediate between the chaos of gas and the static prison of solids, and this allows them to flow and maintain a flame. This is a basic principle of liquids.

#1

Kerosene is a liquid made of carbon-based molecules that, on the atomic scale, looks like spaghetti. Olive oil is a gloopy liquid made of carbon-based molecules that, on the atomic scale, looks more like twirled spaghetti.

#2

The Persian physician and alchemist Rhazes developed special chemical procedures to extract kerosene, a liquid made of carbon-based molecules that looked like twirled spaghetti. It was flammable and produced a smokeless flame. It would take another thousand years for the Persians to discover an alternative source of energy and tax revenue.

#4

The structure of liquids is intermediate between the chaos of gas and the static prison of solids, and this allows them to flow and maintain a flame. This is a basic principle of liquids.

#5

Kerosene, the liquid made of carbon-based molecules that looked like twirled spaghetti, was developed by the Persian physician and alchemist Rhazes in the eighth century. It was flammable and produced a smokeless flame. It would take another thousand years for the Persians to discover an alternative source of energy and tax revenue.

#6

The process of distillation, invented by the Persians in the eighth century, allowed them to extract a liquid out of coal that had excellent properties for burning in an oil lamp. It would take another thousand years for this knowledge to be passed on to Americans.

#7

The process of distillation, invented by the Persians in the eighth century, allowed them to extract a liquid out of coal that had excellent properties for burning in an oil lamp. It would take another thousand years for this knowledge to be passed on to Americans.

#8

The molecular structure of nitroglycerin is intermediate between the chaos of gas and the static prison of solids, and this allows them to flow and maintain a flame. It was first synthesized by the Italian chemist Ascanio Sobrero in 1847.

#9

Kerosene is a liquid that is intermediate between the chaos of gas and the static prison of solids, and it allows for a flame. It was first synthesized by the Italian chemist Ascanio Sobrero in 1847.

#10
