I wonder... 3

I wonder who named all the gases on the periodic table?

The first person who named all the gases was the Russian scientist named Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869 and put the known elements into their places on the periodic table based on their properties. The sample of chlorine created by Humphry Davy in 1810. it is named after the Greek word for 'green'. 

Their chosen names were influenced by changing of languages, cultures or 'our' understanding of chemistry.

How many elements are there on the periodic table?

There are currently 118 elements on the periodic table, but I think their might still be more elements that have yet to be discovered.

What was the first element on the periodic table ever discovered?

The first elements discovered were:
-Gold
-Silver
-Tin
-Copper
-Lead
& Mercury

They have been known since 1649 when Hennig Brand discovered Phosphorous.

Some Characteristics I think dictators have

To me, I think most dictators had some of these characteristics...

-Ruthless                           -Thirst for power
-Self-centered                    -Intimidated
-Controlling                       -Hater/Selfish
-Intelligent                         -Dangerous
-Greedy                             -Strong
-Manipulative                    -Powerful
and so on...

To me, there are many characteristics of a dictator. These were my thoughts on dictators and what I choose to believe if they are good people or bad people. They are powerful and in control, they are intelligent and selfish, they are/were killing people, some reasons can be because of their culture, some may be because of other reasons or just for fun.

Health-Resilience

Resilience
What did I learn on Resilience?

I learned in all of this that resilience is about having the confidence to complete what you've started, not giving up and keep going until you have finished. You feel like giving up, but you are resilient to finish what you've started. Having the ability to "bounce back".


Why is it important?

It is an important topic in life, and you need to show it or have it everywhere you go because you have to keep trying to get where you want to, you mustn't give up or quit even if it gets too hard for you, you have to keep trying. You need to have a confidence or an ability to bounce back.

How could you use this in your own life?


You could use this if you're playing sports and you injure yourself, you could get back up and carry on playing, or if you're doing a task for your work and it gets too hard you want to give up, you don't you keep trying your best and carry on.


Here is a link to my google slide/ presentation that I have done my work on.


My work Presentation

Relaxation

What did I learn on Relaxation?

I learned that Relaxation can help others cope with life, and it helps a lot of people through tough times, you need it in a lot of things, because there are a lot of reasons why you need it for example, if you have an important interview someday and you start to freak out you might lose the job because you weren't calm so you wouldn't have been confident.

Why is it important?

It is important in life because if you're in a really bad mood and you need to calm yourself down, you need to relax and take slow and deep breaths because sometimes people stress out too much they have heart attacks so relaxing can prevent that from happening. You can calm yourself down from any mood with relaxing if you sad and your thinking badly you could relax and think everything through if your mad and your thinking badly you could think it through and think of the consequences you might have.

How could you use this in your own life?

You could use this if you get in fights with your family like siblings and you want to calm down before it gets worst, or like I said before you could use this when your in interviews or at work, or if someone tries to start an argument you have to calm down relax and don't let things escalate on. Or if you just mainly feel like relaxing at home, watching t.v, or getting pampered.

Empathy
What did I learn on Empathy?

I learned that it means something like when someone is hurt and you might've been hurt from the similar problem, you could be empathetic towards them, and tell them you've been through the same problem so you understand how they feel, and you could try to help them out.

Why is this important?

It is important because if someone might be hurt and they don't know what to do they might be looking for someone's help but they don't want to be pitied they want someone who's experienced their pain, to help them. Empathy is really important in some cases when people need help.

How could you use this in your own life?

You could use this sometimes when you're helping someone out if they have lost a family memeber and you have experienced that before so you understand how they feel, or your looking in someone else's perspective.

Mindfulness
What did I learn from Mindfulness?

I learned that being mindful of others can affect them in a good way, that you show and have your full attention towards them so they know your listening to them and your paying attention. It can be great for others when they are talking to you, so they know that aren't zoned out or looking around. It can also help by noticing other people's actions and studying their movements.

Why is it important?



It is important to be mindful of others or things that are happening around you because it is respectful when someone is talking to you, you should pay full attention to them, make eye contact, nod so they know that you're listening to them, it helps assure that your fully there not just your body, but your mind as well, instead of looking around, not making eye contact, responding with something that's completely off topic.

How could you use this in your own life?

You could use this if you're talking to someone and they could be like a big deal, let's say if your trying to get into a highly rated company and you need to have your full attention to your interviewer so they know you listen, you could look and seem more respectful to them.

Body clues
What did I learn from Body clues?

I learned that by studying other people's body clues and their body movement it can help you understand how they are feeling in a way, it helps you know if someones either angry, sad, happy and so on. Body clues are important in a way because let's say your friend is alone in a corner and you ask if she/he is alright and they reply with yes but they look sad, you study their body clues or body movement and it helps you get a close hint of how that person is feeling.

Why is it important?

It is always important to know what body clues you're using because it always assures the person you're talking to knows you understand what they're talking about. Or noticing others body clues are helpful too, if someone is sad but they aren't telling you, you could look/watch their body clues, being sad could mean their face could go red, they would look tired, they could have a slumped back, their eyes could be watery. That is why it's important to notice other peoples body clues so you could help them out.

How could you use this in your own life?

You could use it if your friend is sad and you don't know that they are, so they just stand alone but you ask if they are alright and all they reply with is "I'm fine" so you get worried and confused, so you look at the person and try study or look and the body movements/facial expressions and so on. It can help you in a lot of situations if you're trying to see if someones in a good/bad or any mood.

To me these few lessons in health were important because they all can help people in similar ways, they can help people who might be looking for jobs but struggle or someone who might be angry so they have to calm themselves down. These lessons are basically how to understand people, emotions and all of the above, but mostly RESILIENCE, and that is good because that's what this is all about, and understanding each other.

I wonder... 2

I wonder...

I wonder how is helium created?

Helium is formed by radioactive decaying from elements such as Uranium and Thorium. These elements were formed before the earth, but they are not stable and very slowly, decay.

The "heart" of a helium atom and its nucleus is the Alpha-particle, meaning that helium has been continuously generated since the earth was formed.

For a "D.I.Y", how do you make/create/form Helium?

To do this you need to have:

-Balloon
-A glass of Acetic acid
-A bottle
-Baking soda
-Teaspoon

And to put it all together you need to...

Add soda to the balloon (two teaspoons per balloon), and pour half a glass of acetic acid into the bottle. Don't add too much soda. Put the balloon over the bottle: the soda from the balloon will fall into it, and an intense reaction will begin with the release of CO₂, making your balloon will inflate.

That is all you need to use and do to create helium at home.

Here is a photo of a helium element- Visual elements periodic table.
