Presentations preparing, process

That a presentation is easier to deliver than a speech certainly does suggest that we should choose to present whenever we have a choice, but ease of delivery does not imply that a presentation requires less preparation than a speech. In fact, because of the need for transparencies or Powerpoint slides, a good presentation usually requires more time for preparation than a comparable speech. Careful presentation preparation requires a number of key steps audience analysis, subject selection, elements of a presentation, preparation process, and transparency design and preparation. 

Chain reactions such as those described above, in which atomic species or radicals play a rate-determining part in a series of sequential reactions, are nearly always present in processes for the preparation of thin films by die decomposition of gaseous molecules. This may be achieved by thermal dissociation, by radiation decomposition (photochemical decomposition), or by electron bombardment, either by beams of elecuons or in plasmas. The molecules involved cover a wide range from simple diatomic molecules which dissociate to atoms, to organometallic species with complex dissociation patterns. The... 

Calculating the Maximum Quantity of Lead and Lead Compounds. To calculate the maximum amount of lead and lead compounds present at your facility at any one time, you must consider types of metallic load and M types of lead compounds present at your facility, Including stockpiled raw materials, lead and lead oxide present in process equipment, the metallic lead and lead peroxide contained in finished batteries stored on-site, and stockpiled lead scrap. Since the reporting form is being prepared for lead compounds, the maximum amount reported is the total of the inventories of these materials. The maximum amount of metallic lead (2,305,000 pounds), lead oxide (205,000 pounds), and lead peroxide (625,000 pounds) present at your facility is 3,135,000 pounds, which is between 1,000,000 and 9,999,999 pounds. You would therefore report range 06 on Part III, Section 4, of the reporting form. 

The purpose of the decomposition of raw materials is to convert tantalum and niobium compounds into a soluble form and prepare the solution for use in subsequent procedures. Fig. 116 presents the process flow chart. The most typical and frequently used raw materials are columbite-tantalite concentrates with the general formula (Fe, Mn)(Nb, Ta Cfo. 

Instant tea produced as described above will dissolve completely in hot water but not in cold water, as the caffeine-polyphenol complexes are insoluble under those conditions. Since virtually all instant tea manufacture in the U.S. is for iced tea preparation, process modification is required. This initial extract may be cooled to 5 to 10°C and the cold water insoluble material or cream be allowed to precipitate. Under these conditions, 20 to 35% of the extract solids may be separated by centrifugation. The supernatant solids will reconstitute in cold water after concentration and drying.105 It is also possible to process the cream to make a portion of it compatible with the product and thereby retain the caffeine and some polyphenolic components that are present in this fraction.106 Commercial use of the enzyme Tannase, which removes gallic acid from gallated tea polyphenols107 and reduces cream formation108 can be used to reduce cream losses and manufacture instant teas retaining more of the natural polyphenol content. 

Figure 6.27 presents the sample preparation process. Accurate and reproducible control of the depth of the autosampler needles permitted the sampling of the supernatant solution without perturbing the precipitate, thus avoiding the need for sample filtration, as shown in Figure 6.28. Of course, a step could be added to sample preparation to filter the solutions prior to analysis.

Both wet-ceramic techniques and direct-deposition techniques require preparation of the feedstock, which can consist of dry powders, suspensions of powders in liquid, or solution precursors for the desired phases, such as nitrates of the cations from which the oxides are formed. Section 6.1.3 presented some processing methods utilized to prepare the powder precursors for use in SOFC fabrication. The component fabrication methods are presented here. An overview of the major wet-ceramic and direct-deposition techniques utilized to deposit the thinner fuel cell components onto the thicker structural support layer are presented below. 

As shown by Table 7 above, the chiral titanium catalyst-MS 4A system is widely applicable to the reactions of a variety of dienophiles and dienes when a suitable alkyl substituted benzene is employed as a solvent, and synthetically important Diels-Alder adducts are prepared in high enantioselectivity by the present catalytic process. 

While not true CD, a novel telluriding agent, Te dissolved in an alkaline solution of hydroxymethanesulphinic acid, has been used to convert Cd(OH)2 films to CdTe [21]. While there is some doubt as to the nature of the active telluriding agent, from the description of the preparation process of this reagent— a change in color from deep purple (characteristic of polytelluride ions, TeJ ) to a faint pink (pure Te is colorless but will be colored this way if traces of TeJ are present) as the preparation proceeds—it does appear to contain free teUuride ion. It should be noted that elemental Te can slowly dissolve in concentrated air-free alkaline solutions, with the formation of polytelluride and its characteristic purple color. 

Methyl- 1,3-cyclopentanedione is a key intermediate for the total synthesis of steroids.2 A number of methods have been described for its preparation, among them the condensation of succinic acid with propionyl chloride,3 and that of succinic anhydride with 2-buten-2-ol acetate,4 both in the presence of aluminum chloride. It has also been obtained from 3-methylcyclopentane-1,2,4-trione by catalytic hydrogenation5 and Wolff-Kishner reduction 6 The base-promoted cyclization of 4-oxohexanoic acid ethyl ester and diethyl propionylsuccinate with tertiary alkoxides was first reported by Bucourt.7 The present cyclization process provides an experimentally simple route to 2-methyl-1,3-cyclopentanedione. Using the same procedure, 4-oxoheptanoic acid ethyl ester has been cyclized to give 2-ethyl-l,3-cyclopentanedione in 46% yield... 

In this chapter, we ll examine the reasons why you should join this mass movement and learn to prepare and deliver effective presentations. Specifically, we ll examine the reasons why you should present—not speechify—and we ll consider the elements and the process of presentation preparation. We ll also consider methods for preparing effective transparencies or PowerPoint presentation files and ways to sharpen your delivery skills. 

With the basic elements of a presentation on the table, it is important to examine the overall process of presentation preparation. 

Presentation preparation is so closely tied to the writing process that you ll find it...

Coal preparation processes such as micronization, acid treatment, floatation and maceral separation do not affect a series of representative sulfur-containing model compounds. We believe this conclusion can be extrapolated to include those sulfur structures present in coal. 

Schottky barriers like those shown in Figure (a) present nonsymmetric current versus voltage curves, which in some cases show high rectification and for this reason find practical application in Schottky diodes, which are devices constructed having a Schottky contact. The shape and height of the Schottky barrier, in practical cases, depends on several preparation process parameters, like surface cleanness, surface treatment, presence of surface states, etc. See also -> flat-band potential. 

Schottky contact — Alternative denomination of metal-semiconductor contact presenting a Schottky barrier. Depending on metal - work function, semiconductor electron affinity, doping of the semiconductor, conditions of the surface of the semiconductor before contact preparation, and preparation process, Schottky contacts with high rectification can be prepared. Devices encor-porating such contacts behave like a diode and for this reason, are also denominated Schottky diodes, whose main features are the capability of high frequency operations and low forward-voltage drop.
