Nayree Panossian AP Human Geography Ch.1 - 1 Notes Geography = The study of where things are found on earths surface and the reasons for the locations. Maps as reference tools = a map helps us find the shortest route btw 2 places, and to avoid getting lost along the way. We consult maps to know where in the world some place is found. Maps as communication tools = a map is often the best means for showing the distribution of human activities or physical features, as well as for thinking about reasons underlying a distribution. Early Maps = the earliest of maps were reference tools ? simple navigation devices designed to show a traveler how to get from point A to point B.

77 Grand Central Equation Many people converge at Grand central station on their way to their destinations. lt is a place thatrepresents a myriad of travel possibilities. Reactions travel not by train, but by specific pathways calledmechanisms' ln this activity, you will see how ditferent reactants, taking different routes, can undergotransformation into the same product. You will evaluate these different routes in terms of the amount ofproduct that can be made, the ease of isolating the product, product purity, safety issues, reaction time,waste production, and economics. d. 8t f'zq t1 SEUU .6i6m .acue|eq;ec1y(1eueueuouleL|l(ale1)q6taalpue Jel?eq -lu-og p optsul aqnl lsel lleus rfup e ecel4 'ace;d sqlalpunq eql ol pEeJ ue3 lEql ecuEleq e pul)'z
