Abstract This investigation was undertaken in order to observe the effects of changing the temperature of the solution that a potato cube is placed in. The temperatures that were tested in this investigation were 0°C‚ 20°C (room temperature)‚ and 70°C. This investigation tested the hypothesis: The rate of osmosis will increase as the temperature increases 2x2x2cm cubes of potato were weighed and then placed into 100mL of 10% NaCl solutions for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes the cubes were again

The purpose of this practical is to investigate how the pulse rate of humans changes when they exercise. Someone who is physically fit can supply their muscles with enough blood‚ carrying glucose and oxygen‚ for an activity at a lower heart and breathing rate. The fitter you are the lower your resting heart rate. You and your classmates will be the humans investigated. SAFETY: If you know you have any condition that affects you doing exercise‚ please make sure your teacher knows before you start

Unit III Scholarly Activity Alex Scanlon Columbia Southern University MBA 5652‚ Research Methods Introduction There are many ways to research better methods to operate a business. Using qualitative research‚ and finding the true feelings and wants of the company’s consumers‚ can help the company to better provide goods or services for the consumers or even improve customer interaction to reduce bad feelings about a company. Using qualitative research a company can learn of customer interests without

RATE OF REACTIONS. The reaction rate (rate of reaction) or speed of reaction for a reactant or product in a particular reaction is intuitively defined as how fast or slow a reaction takes place. For example‚ the oxidative rusting of iron under the atmosphere is a slow reaction that can take many years‚ but the combustion of cellulose in a fire is a reaction that takes place in fractions of a second (right). Chemical kinetics is the part of physical chemistry that studies reaction rates. The concepts

reaction is IO3-(aq) + 3 HSO3-3 SO4-(aq) + I-(aq)+ 3 H+(aq)‚ where the iodate ions become iodide ions1. The second reaction is 6 H+(aq) +IO3-(aq) + 5 I-(aq) 3 I2(aq) + 3 H2O(l) where the iodate ions become molecular iodine2. The third reaction involves molecular iodine becoming a dark blue starch;I2(aq) + starch blue-black complex3. These three reactions react in a sequence. In any reaction the concentration is exponentially related to the rate of the reaction. The rate of the reaction is dependent

Memorandum To: Urban Planning Department From: Name Subject: Rise of Temperature in Urcity Date: Introduction Agricultural areas all over the world are feeling the effects of suburb expansion. The cities growth is having an effect on the ability of land‚ water‚ and animals. With city growth will create problems such as climate‚ land‚ and geographical changes (Hillel‚ 1995). Critical Findings The agricultural areas of UrCity are being forced further out into the desert basin due

have different demands in the current industry. The reaction rate of the reaction plays an important role in the production of the ester which could affect the production of the ester. Esterification is a reversible reaction and thus this affects the amount of ester produced as ester hydrolysis changes it back to its reactants. Very little data is available on how does the carbon chain length of carboxylic acid and alcohol affects the rate constant and equilibrium constant of esterification. Thus‚

[Type text] [Type text] [Type text] _An experiment on the effect of surface area to volume ratio on the rate of osmosis of Solanum tuberosum L._ BACKGROUND A cell needs to perform diffusion in order to survive. Substances‚ including water‚ ions‚ and molecules that are required for cellular activities‚ can enter and leave cells by a passive process such as diffusion. Diffusion is random movement of molecules in a net direction from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration

“The Effect of Level of Activity on Clothespin Squeezing Amount Question: Does exercising/ resting affect the number of times you can squeeze a clothespin in a minute? Hypothesis: If the person DOES NOT exercise before the task then‚ they will be able to squeeze the clothespin more because not exercising/resting allows the body to relax and there are no buildups of waste products. Biological Explanation: Both the respiratory system and the circulatory system are involved within my experiment

All children are unique and develop at their own rate but they tend to follow a similar pattern. There are a number of areas of development like‚ Physical‚ communication‚ Social‚ emotional‚ behavioural‚ Intellectual and moral development. Development is very rapid in the early years of a child’s life and tends to slow down the older they get. Moral development is usually adapted from the setting a child lives and would usually deem something wrong and right‚ based on what their parents believe is
