Application of the Triaxial test in engineering practice The information such as the shear strength parameters and the cohesion that obtained from triaxial test can be used to check the safety and predict the behaviors of long-term stability of slopes‚ earth fills and earth retaining structures. The analysis carried out in terms of total stress obtained from undrained test can be used to investigate the initial stability of the foundation of a structure or embankment on saturated clay.

------------------------------------------------- Boxed lunch catering A box lunch is a lunch consisting of a sandwich‚ chips‚ fruit and a dessert. A box lunch is typically prepared by a caterer and dropped off to a location for a client’s dining needs. Box lunches are used primarily in the corporate arena for working lunches when they do not have time to take a break from their meeting yet still need to eat. A box lunch order is placed with a caterer a couple of days before the delivery date and

A Sequence of Chemical Reactions: Transforming Copper Briefly describe. a) Why must you carry out the oxidation of Cu with HNO3 in a fume hood? Concentrated nitric acid is a toxic oxidant. Avoiding skin contact or inhalation is highly important. The reaction between Cu and HNO3 produces NO2‚ a toxic brown gas; therefore working under the fume is necessary in order to prevent inhaling the toxic gas. b) Why you should be particularly careful when you work with 3 M H2SO4 solution? Sulfuric acid

Coursework 4 Copper Name of student: Alfiya Ospanova Tutorial group: G Copper is one of the earliest elements explored by humanity. Due to the special red shade it was easy to find in ancient times. The metal was named according to place where it was found‚ the Cyprus islands. Copper produced in massive stars and spread in the world as minerals like chalcocite and chalcopyrite (sulfide of copper)‚ azurite and malachite (carbonate of copper)‚ cuprite (oxide of copper). The atomic

Copper Reactions Rodney Jay C. Ridao Florencio Louis Pascual Relao De La Salle University- Dasmariñas Dasmariñas Cavite Philippines ABSTRACT The Copper Reactions experiment was demonstrate by adding the reagents like 16M HNO3‚ Distilled water‚ 6M NaOH‚ 6M H2SO4‚ Acetone‚ Zinc metal and Methanol into the beaker with the copper wire. The experiment was also demonstrated to observe how copper reacts while different reagent were being added. It was also demonstrated to practice the common laboratory

Research question/Aim Extract copper from copper oxide by reduction using butane gas Hypothesis The butane gas will reduce the copper oxide and leave behind pure copper. This will allow us to find the empirical formula of the copper oxide as well as the masses of oxygen and copper Variables Dependant variable The dependant variable will be the reduction of the copper oxide which will be calculated at different temperatures. Independent variable The independent variable here

The Effect of pH Level of a Liquid on the Rate of Corrosion of Copper wire In this experiment‚ I will be testing the corrosion rate of copper wire after leaving them in different liquids with different pH levels. By doing so I will be able to determine which pH level corrodes copper the fastest. I will conduct this experiment by pouring 250mL of different liquids with different pH levels in cups‚ followed by an iron strip placed into the cup. A stopwatch will be timing how long it takes the iron
