Qubit (game show) lustrous metal is the seventy-fourth element on the periodic table?" If the contestant answers incorrectly or passes, the host reads a clue such as: "Its chemical symbol is W, which stands for" Wolfram, "the German name of this element." If the contestant still answers incorrectly or passes, the host reads two choices, such as: "Is it platinum or tungsten?" Tungsten is the correct answer. The other answer is changed if necessary so it is not an answer already tried by the contestant. If the constant still answers incorrectly at this point, a 10-second time penalty is applied. The contestant with
Melting-point depression the solid phase. Nanoparticles are currently used or proposed for prominent roles in catalyst, sensor, medicinal, optical, magnetic, thermal, electronic, and alternative energy applications. Nanoparticles must be in the solid state to function at elevated temperatures in several of these applications. Two techniques allow measurement of the melting point of nanoparticle. The electron beam of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) can be used to melt nanoparticles. The melting temperature is estimated from the beam intensity, while changes in the diffraction conditions to indicate phase transition from solid to liquid. This method allows direct viewing of nanoparticles as they melt, making
