...Title: Experimental Applications of Hess’s Law Objectives: 1) To study and understand the experimental method of Hess’s law. 2) To interpret experimental data by applying Hess’s law. 3) To determine the H of ammonium chloride solid to ammonia gas and hydrochloric acid gas by using Hess’s law. Introduction: A reaction that release heat to surrounding is known as exothermic reaction. It is usually observed as temperature increases in solvent, container and other immediate surroundings. The expression of heat released from the reaction is: qreaction = qsolution + qcalorimeter ……..(1) The qcalorimeter is nearly zero because the calorimeter in this experiment is assumed to absorb little heat. So, the equation is simplified to qreaction = qsolution ……...(2) The change in temperature that caused by the addition of a given amount of heat will depend on specific heat, Csp of substance. Therefore, the heat involved is calculated by the equation Q = (Csp)(m)(T) ………(3) Mass of substance is m, change is temperature is T (final temperature – initial temperature). The heat changes observed is equal to enthalpies of reaction, H for the reactions considered because this experiment was run at constant pressure. The enthalpy of these directly observed reactions and Hess’s law was used to calculate the enthalpy change for an additional reaction which is not directly observed. Hess’s law stated that the overall enthalpy...

...99 Chapter 8 Litigation Services Provided by Accountants CHAPTER SUMMARY Overview This chapter explains what standards apply to accountants when they perform litigation services, discusses how to qualify as an expert witness, gives tips for testifying at a deposition or trial, and points out the potential liability that accountants risk when they testify at trial. Litigation in the United States ¶8001 U.S. Tort Costs Climbing The U.S. tort system cost $248.1 billion in 2009, which was about $808 per U.S. citizen ($12 in 1950). U.S. tort costs accounted for 1.74 percent of GDP (2.09 in 2002). Increasingly inefficient, the U.S. tort system returns less than 50 cents on the dollar to people it is designed to help; only about 22 cents to compensate for actual loss. ¶8006 A Dispute Begins There are two different courtroom environments: civil and criminal. Some experts believe it is more difficult to convict in a criminal trial (e.g., Casey Anthony). Types of Litigation Services Provided by Accountants ¶8011 Consultant An accountant may be hired by an attorney to gather and interpret facts, prepare analyses, help the attorney interpret evidence, advise about issues and strategies involved in a legal matter, locate other accountants to act as consultants or expert witnesses, and help expert witnesses form their opinions. Accountants acting as consultants will not be asked to testify in a judicial or regulatory proceeding, and their work usually will be protected from disclosure...

...Case Study on Fundamental Analysis of Indian Media and Entertainment Industry Analyzed By Tarak Shah Indian Institute of Planning and Management (IIPM) Ahmedabad © IIPM, 2006 -1- Paradoxical phenomenon of Indian Media and Entertainment industry – reality or just a passing impulse? “Inconsistency, absurdity and contradiction usually surprise people but when question comes to invest in stock, it invariably leads to confusion, misjudged perceptions, miscalculated action and at the end heavy monetary losses” India has been recognized as the most assertive and rapidly developing country all over the world. India has not only attained higher economic growth (8.1 % in FY 2005-06) but also superior social development, better standard of living to its people, and it is marching towards the most vibrant democracy. No one can deny the fact that Indian stock market is the barometer of the India’s progress and prosperity. Recently, Indian stock markets are touching new heights everyday. On 19th April, 2006 the Sensex reached to 11900 points despite large scale FII selling rally. The underlying reason for such surmounting upward movements of Indian bourses is strong economic foundations laid down by robust sectoral growth and well-thought out policy support of Indian government. Sectors like Steel, Information Technology, Cement, Banking, Gas and Petroleum, Automobiles, Infrastructure and Media & Entertainment seem to be promising because of their tremendous growth potential...

...Revision of Manuscript # 17-02-88 Running head: ATTRACTIVENESS AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT Effects of Physical Attractiveness When Evaluating a Male Employee’s Allegation of Sexual Harassment by His Female Employer Karl L. Wuensch and Charles H. Moore East Carolina University Abstract College students (N = 324) served as mock jurors in a simulated civil case in which a male plaintiff accused a female defendant of sexual harassment. The physical attractiveness of the litigants was experimentally manipulated. Mock jurors were asked to decide whether the defendant was guilty or not and to rate their certainty of belief in the defendant's guilt. Jurors were more certain of the guilt of the defendant when the plaintiff was attractive than when he was unattractive. Plaintiff attractiveness significantly affected female jurors’ verdicts when the defendant was unattractive, but not when she was attractive. With male jurors, plaintiff attractiveness significantly affected their verdicts when the defendant was attractive, but not when she was unattractive. Female jurors were more likely than male jurors to conclude that sexual harassment did take place, but only when the litigants were different in attractiveness. Effects of Physical Attractiveness When Evaluating a Male Employee’s Allegation of Sexual Harassment by his Female Employer Physically attractive people are perceived in a more positive fashion than are the physically unattractive (Dion, Berscheid, &...

...ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNER SPECIAL EDUCATION REFERRAL AND PLACEMENT OUTCOMES IN INSTRUCTIONAL CONSULTATION TEAMS SCHOOLS Arlene E. Silva, Master of Arts, 2005 Thesis Directed by: Professor Sylvia Rosenfield Department of Counseling and Personnel Services University of Maryland, College Park The present study serves as an examination and documentation of referral and placement outcomes of English Language Learner (ELL) cases in Instructional Consultation (IC) Teams schools. Archival data from 838 cases (12% of which were ELL cases) within five mid-Atlantic public school districts implementing IC Teams were analyzed for outcomes using logistic regression. Results included statistically significant differences in ELL versus non-ELL student initial team referral (IC or other prereferral intervention team) and ultimate IEP Team referrals. Initial referral concerns also differed significantly between ELL and non-ELL students. IC Teams were found to be more effective than existing prereferral intervention teams in decreasing the special education referrals of ELL and non-ELL students. The results of the present study serve as a foundation for future research in the areas of at-risk ELL students and their referrals to prereferral intervention teams and special education.

...of Management Journal 2011, Vol. 54, No. 1, 73–96. THE NECESSITY OF OTHERS IS THE MOTHER OF INVENTION: INTRINSIC AND PROSOCIAL MOTIVATIONS, PERSPECTIVE TAKING, AND CREATIVITY ADAM M. GRANT University of Pennsylvania JAMES W. BERRY University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Although many scholars believe that intrinsic motivation fuels creativity, research has returned equivocal results. Drawing on motivated information processing theory, we propose that the relationship between intrinsic motivation and creativity is enhanced by other-focused psychological processes. Perspective taking, as generated by prosocial motivation, encourages employees to develop ideas that are useful as well as novel. In three studies, using both field and lab data, we found that prosocial motivation strengthened the association between intrinsic motivation and independent creativity ratings. In our second and third studies, perspective taking mediated this moderating effect. We discuss theoretical implications for creativity and motivation. As work becomes increasingly dynamic, uncertain, and knowledge-based, organizations depend on creative ideas from employees (George, 2007). Scholars and practitioners share a strong interest in understanding the psychological forces that motivate creativity—the production of ideas that are both novel and useful (Amabile, 1996). For several decades, researchers have believed that intrinsic motivation is an important driver of creativity (Elsbach & Hargadon...
