Heart palpitations are described as feeling like your heart is racing or pounding. Palpitations can be caused by anxiety, panic disorders, overeating, pregnancy, and abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias). Most palpitations are not serious, however, palpitations caused by a heart condition like atrial fibrillation or Afib can be serious and require medical treatment.
WEIGHING BY DIFFERENCE (From Dr. David Chesney) Weighing by difference is the most accurate method to measure quantitatively the mass of a solid sample. This procedure involves repetitive weighings of a weighing bottle containing a quantity of solid reagent. As the solid is removed to another vessel, the mass of the weighing bottle contents decreases.
Balance beam type scales are the oldest type and measure weight using a fulcrum or pivot and a lever with the unknown weight placed on one end of the lever, and a counterweight applied to the other end. When the lever is balanced, the unknown weight and the counterweight are equal.
