What is carr's index and how does it influence tablet preparation?

One important characteristic is tapped bulk density, or simply tapped (tap) density: that is, the maximum packing density of a powder (or blend of powders) achieved under the influence of welldefined, externally applied forces. The minimum packed volume thus achieved depends on a number of factors including particle size distribution, true density, particle shape and cohesiveness due to surface forces including moisture. Therefore, the tap density of a material can be used to predict both its flow properties and its compressibility (see right sidebar as to how). These are just two of the many parameters which are important in the overall tabletting process - which requires that loose powders be compacted into a durable solid form with the correct mechanical strength, porosity and dissolution characteristics – and in capsulefilling performance. Compressibility Index & Hausner Ratio The two most commonly used measures of the relative importance of interparticulate interactions are the compressibility index (often referred to as Carr’s Index [1]) and the Hausner ratio [2] (see right sidebar). “V” and “D” represent powder volume and density respectively, subscript “o” denotes the initial or untapped state and “f” the final or tapped state. In free-flowing powders the initial bulk and tapped densities will be more similar than in poor flowing powders which yield greater differences between the two values.

What are three Chemical Reactions or Physical changes that happen in the process of making S'mores?

three physical changes of making a s'more would be breaking the chocolate, breaking the crackers, and chewing the s'more when it's in your mouth.

Examples of software projects in which failure resulted in catastrophic consequences?

A combination of two failures lead to catastrophic event and the first failure is latent is there probability requirement for the latent failure?

Does snow get heaver when it warms up?

Yes, because some of it melts and percolates into the snowpack. This doesn't change the overall amount of water in the snowpack because it then decreases in size.

How does variables effect the result of experinment?

A variable can change so how it effect the exerinment varies. go to http://www.isd77.k12.mn.us/resources/cf/SciProjInter.html this website may help in answering your question.

Why is there a need to analyze data?

There is no point in collecting data simply for the sake of collecting data. You need to analyse it: summarise it and use key information from it to make some assessments about the data.

What are the chemical reasons vinegar helps with poaching eggs?

Cooking an egg involves denaturing its proteins with heat. Acid can also denature proteins and cook the egg. When you first add a raw egg to the simmering water, it takes time for the proteins to absorb heat and denature. During this time, the egg can deform into threads of congealed protein, and look... not nice. The acid in the vinegar helps to denature the protein more quickly, thus maintaining a better appearance. Swirling the water to form a vortex (pocket for the egg) can help accomplish the same end. See Related Links.

Does the type of ball affect how well it spins in water?

The factors to consider here would be: 1) The surface texture of the ball, in other words, is it smooth or rough or dimpled like a golf ball? Drag is produced by the water passing over the ball's surface. 2) The material making up the ball's surface can be attractive or repellent to water molecules. Presumably a ball with an oily surface would spin better though I've never experimented.

Why does the polymer PS burn with a black fume?

Many polymers burn with black fumes. Their molecules are very rich in carbon, and it's very difficult to give them enough oxygen to convert this to carbon dioxide, so small pieces of solid carbon (soot) are formed. These are so tiny they form a smoke. There will be lots of other chemicals in the smoke too, and it's best avoided.

What is a arceoligest?

A professional scholar who studies the past using scientific methods with the goal of recording, interpreting, and preserving knowledge of ancient and contemporary cultures

Where can you buy test tubes and lab equipment in Dallas?

Your best bet is probably to contact a supply house like Sargent-Welch or Fisher Scientific. If you specifically want glassware, you could try Ace Glass or Wilmad. Note these aren't places in Dallas you can just walk into ... you'd have to order them.
