Lab 1 : Scientific Method 20 Table 2: Water quality vs. fish population 1. Based on the information in Table 2‚ (in the lab manual) what patterns do you observe? 2. Develop a hypothesis relating to the amount of dissolved oxygen measured in the water sample and the number of fish observed in the body of water. 3. What would your experimental approach be to test this hypothesis? 4. What are the independent and dependent variables? 5. What would be your control? 6. What type of graph would

LAB 1 1. Describe the function of the following pieces of safety equipment and how each might be used: (10 points) a. Eye Wash (2 points) In the event of a chemical splash to the eyes‚ flood the eyes for at least 15-30 minutes with water. Flush from the eye outward. If you were not wearing proper eye wear‚ a chemical could splash into your eye and would make it necessary to use this. b. Fire Blanket (2 points) Used in order to put out a small fire.

2 September 2014 Chapter 1 Review 1. Describe the characteristics of science. A. The characteristics of science are observations‚ search for regularities‚ process the information‚ and self-corrections. Science is based upon observations that incorporate our senses‚ or instruments that extend our senses‚ to interpret natural experiences. Science is a searh for regularities. These regularities may include observed phenomena or patterns in nature. After observations have been recorded about regularities

Introduction: This investigation used spectroscopy to evaluate light absorption in different solutions. A spectrophotometer was used in the lab to determine these values. A spectrophotometer is an apparatus used to “measure the absorption of radiation in the visible and UV regions of the spectrum and allows precise at a particular wave length” (Jones et al.‚ 2007). The amount of light absorbed by a substance is directly in relation to the concentration of the solute and also the wavelength moving
