Pragmatics and How They Differ Communication sometimes can be somehow tricky and disconcerting since language itself sometimes can confuse the participants of a conversation since the meaning of the conversation can be confusing sometimes.

Both sides of the spectrum pursued the same goal but they seemed to have drastic differences. During the American Blues Revival it was set upon

that no milk was added to the coffee within this experiment. If milk was added into the experiment‚ the rate of cooling would be noticeably faster than it is without adding the milk. This would result in larger k values. Also‚ the amount of water that was measured into the beaker may not be accurate due to the fact that human error can come into play. The effect of this would be that the rate of cooling of the coffee may actually be slightly higher or lower depending on whether less or more water

analysing the graph‚ you can see that there is a relation between the rate of reaction and the surface area. The larger the surface are‚ the faster the rate of reaction seems to be. However‚ although the grain with the largest surface area (the smallest grain) reached the highest point within the shortest amount of time‚ its end result was still lower then the medium sized grain. The explanation for this result is relatively easy. The rate of a chemical reaction can be increased by increasing the size

For this experiment I am investigating how the light intensity as my limiting factor will have in impact on the amount to oxygen produced‚ to should the rate of photosynthesis.Therefore‚ all the controlled variables must remain constant‚ if not there could be an affect on the accuracy of the dependent variable. The CO2 levels are the same for each trial because before placing the sodium hydrogen carbonate i will weigh it with a measuring scale for 1.5 grams. After completing the five measurements

environment‚ making it harder for substances to pass/diffuse through it‚ at higher temperatures‚ the cell is softer‚ and more fluid like and when the temperature is too hot for the cell to handle‚ it breaks up or ’melts’‚ releasing what was inside of the cell. This is shown by the results in the graph by the lower temperature not showing much pigment diffused into the water and there being a lot of pigment in the water diffused at a higher temperature. Temperature can also affect the rate of diffusion
