EFFECTS OF CENTRAL RIFT GEOLOGICAL FORMATION ON ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES a) Farming At the floor of the central rift‚ the volcanic soils that have been eroded from the top of the mountains like menengai‚ has been put into use through farming. There is wheat farming in Nakuru‚ maize plantations‚ Irish potato growing in the central rift due to fertile soils which support the growth of the crops. Also there is tea growing in Kericho as a result of its favourable physical factors such as climate‚ rainfall

I. Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to determine the pH values of acids‚ bases‚ and buffers of distilled water and 10.0 buffer using measured concentrations of Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and/or Hydrochloric acid (HCl). Acid is a compound typically having a bitter taste and capable of nullifying alkalis and releases hydrogen ion when added to a solution‚ or containing an atom that can accept a pair of electrons from a base (McKinley‚ Dean O’Loughlin‚ & Stouter Bidle‚ 2016). Bases are water-soluble

IMPROVED ASSAY This essay aims to critically compare and contrast the community psychology and public health approaches to social problems. It is imperative however to first explain what these two concepts mean before executing on how they compare and differ from each other. It would also be of significance to know how these concepts where established. Definitions Community psychology is that branch of psychology concerned with how people relate to community and society‚ and according to this

A pH meter is an electronic device used for measuring the pH (acidity or alkalinity) of a liquid (though special probes are sometimes used to measure the pH of semi-solid substances). A typical pH meter consists of a special measuring probe (a glass electrode) connected to an electronic meter that measures and displays the pH reading. A colorimeter is a device used in colorimetry. In scientific fields the word generally refers to the device that measures the absorbance of particular wavelengths

Background An indicator is a halochromic chemical compound that is added to a solution to determine its pH. It is a chemical detector for hydronium ions. The indicator changes colour to show the pH of the solution. Some indicates are not very precise and only tell us whether the solution is acidic or basic. When the indicator is added to the solution‚ they bind to hydrogen or hydroxide ions. The different electron configurations of the bound indicator cause the indicator ’s colour to change.

aim of this practical is to investigate the effect of exercise on heart rate and breathing rate. We will use a digital heart rate monitor strapped on our chest while we perform different levels of exercise. A digital watch is also provided which receives signals from the heart rate monitor and displays your current heart rate on the screen. To measure the breathing rate at different levels of exercise‚ we measure the breathing rate before physical activity by counting the number of breaths in 10 seconds
