Philip S. Lee

Philip S. Lee is a chemistry topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Philip S. Lee rather than just read about it. In short: Philip Siu Lun Lee (born May 5, 1944; Chinese: 李紹麟) was the 24th lieutenant governor of Manitoba. He was made a Member of the Order of Canada in 1999 and received the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal in 2002.

Key takeaways

Philip S. Lee belongs to chemistry; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Philip S. Lee to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Philip S. Lee from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Philip Siu Lun Lee (born May 5, 1944; Chinese: 李紹麟) was the 24th lieutenant governor of Manitoba. He was made a Member of the Order of Canada in 1999 and received the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal in 2002.

Born and raised in Hong Kong, Lee migrated to Canada in 1962 to study at the University of Manitoba. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1966, and a public administration diploma in 1977. In 1967 he was hired by the City of Winnipeg as a research chemist. He helped organize the Chinese pavilion in the first Folklorama in 1970 and later became Vice President of the Folk Arts Council of Winnipeg. In the 1977 Manitoba general election, Lee ran as a Progressive Conservative candidate in Winnipeg Centre where he lost to Bud Boyce of the Manitoba New Democratic Party. Lee was on Winnipeg's Refugee Assistance Committee from 1979 to 1986. He also advocated for the construction of the Winnipeg Chinese Cultural and Community Centre in the Dynasty Building, the Chinese Gate and Garden, and the Mandarin Building in Winnipeg. His appointment as Lieutenant Governor was made by Governor General of Canada Michaëlle Jean, on the Constitutional advice of Prime Minister of Canada Stephen Harper, on June 19, 2009. Upon assuming the office on August 4, 2009, Lee became the 24th lieutenant governor of the province. Lee left office on June 19, 2015, after a six-year term. Lee was the third Chinese Canadian to be a provincial vice-regal, after David Lam of British Columbia and Norman Kwong of Alberta.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Philip S. Lee

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Philip S. Lee claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In chemistry, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Philip S. Lee before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Philip S. Lee ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Philip S. Lee

In research: Philip S. Lee appears in chemistry research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Philip S. Lee in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Philip S. Lee is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1944 births, 21st-century Canadian politicians, Canadian chemists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Philip S. Lee outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
