    weighed a lot were invented along with tubes and air tanks. This is just a small amount of scuba diving equipment history. Today we have come a long way with diving equipment. We now use BCD’s. A BCD stands for buoyancy control device that you can inflate and deflate to maintain buoyancy while diving. We have dive computers to tell us how deep we are diving‚ the time‚ how much air we have in our tanks and what direction we are heading. We have regulators to keep us breathing under water‚ which is

    how things happen and why. Swimming displays some physical properties‚ such as buoyancy‚ drag resistance and propulsion. We swimmers are at a constant battle to stay afloat‚ while fighting through the water and propelling ourselves forward‚ and we do so using technique. Buoyancy is the power to float or rise in a fluid. This relates to swimming because when you’re in the water‚ you have to be able stay afloat. Buoyancy is the net upward force acting on the swimmer‚ as the depth of the water increases

    Abstract: Saponification is an esterification process that is used to make so from the hydrolysis of fats and oils. This process have the glycerol molecule‚ and a sodium carboxylate salt in most case sodium stearate being formed‚ however this salt depends on the base being used. In the experiment 23ml of vegetable oil was mixed with 20ml of ethyl alcohol along with 20 ml of 25% sodium hydroxide in a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask. The content was then heated on a water bath whilst gently mixing with
