MindMap Gallery The cultivation of cross-cultural communication skills
This clear mind map is titled "The cultivation of cross-cultural communication skills", mainly explaining the importance of cross-cultural communication, developing cultural intelligence (CQ), and improving language proficiency. Each content has been further explained on several levels. The importance of cross-cultural communication is reflected in effective communication in a globalized context; developing cultural intelligence (CQ) includes understanding and adapting to different cultural values; improving language proficiency is achieved through language learning and practical application.

Circular Economy and Chemical Balance focuses on the concepts, principles, and practical cases of circular economy. It also analyzes the principles of mass and energy conservation in chemical reactions, revealing the intrinsic link between circular economy and chemical balance. By optimizing resource utilization and reducing waste emissions, circular economy and chemical balance promote each other, jointly driving sustainable development.
The influence of pressure on gas reactions mainly manifests in changes to the chemical equilibrium position. According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing pressure typically shifts reactions with a decrease in the number of gas molecules toward the forward direction. The mole concept is crucial in gas reactions, determining the quantities of reactants and products. Additionally, pressure changes have practical implications in industrial production, environmental protection, and energy conversion.
