Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic‚ meaning that it possesses elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants‚ aquatic animals and infrastructure. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide‚ which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere with positive results. Nitrogen

Fish Amino Acid (FAA) Make nitrate from fish it contains abundant amount of nutrients and various types of amino acid. Put whole fish or bones‚ gills and guts‚scales‚ tails etc. Washed‚ crushed livesnail or kuhol (eggs can also be used)place in a plastic container. Pestle orcrush materials Don’t use hands. Add thesame amount of molasses or Muscovadosugar. Mix sugar in ¾ container with fishingredients then remaining molasses.Prepare at night to prevent flies frombreeding. APPLICATION:FAA / CALPHOS

Intracellular free calcium levels: Intracellular free calcium levels were estimated according to the method of Luo and Shi (Luo and Shi‚ 2005). Briefly‚ hippocampi were isolated from mice brains and subjected to hippocampal cells isolation as described later. The cells obtained were incubated with Fura-2 AM at 37°C with gentle shaking. The fura-2 loaded suspension was centrifuged for 10 minutes‚ pellet was washed once with Ca2+-free buffer and was centrifuged again. Aliquots of the washed suspension

The effect on the pH of Distilled water‚ Potato Solution and Commercial Buffer‚ when Hydrochloric acid (0.1 mol/L) and Sodium Hydroxide (0.1 mol/L) is added Mahima Mandava Mrs. Haist September 23rd‚ 2014 SBI4U1 Background Information: The pH is the measurement of how acidic or how basic a substance can be. The pH scale is used to measure how acidic or basic a living cell can be. The pH scale ranges from 0-14; 0-6 being acidic‚ 8-14 being basic and 7 being neutral. There are many factors

Title Soda Ash: Great for the economy but detrimental to the body; So why is it involved in everyday life? Abstract Sodium carbonate‚ Na₂CO₃‚ commonly known as soda ash is used in the manufacturing of many economically important products such as the manufacturing of glass‚ chemicals‚ paper and detergents. Since sodium carbonate has a strong base‚ it is commonly used to neutralize acidic effects. Soda ash has a high pH in concentrated solutions and can irritate the eyes and skin as well

Matthew Saldanha Bio DCP lab-Catalase experiment Aim: To investigate enzyme kinetics‚ using different concentration of the enzyme. Hypothesis: The assay system used in the lab consists of a filter paper disc coated with the enzyme and the dropped into a papercup of substrate (Hydrogen Peroxide). As the hydrogen breaks down the hydrogen peroxide into hydrogen and oxygen gas‚ the bubbles of oxygen gas collect underneath the filter and make it

CONCENTRATION AND DILUTION Physiology 1‚ Las Positas College Name: In science‚ concentration is a measure of the number of particles (solutes) in a given volume. If one room has 100 people in it‚ and a room of equal size has 50 people‚ one can say that the concentration of people in one room is twice that of the other. Quite simple‚ isn’t it? On a molecular level‚ consider whether you put one lump or two of sugar‚ or no sugar at all‚ in your coffee. If you use two lumps‚ you prefer twice

Acid Rain and the Effects of our Monuments and Churches The two controlled experiments that I chose to do‚ do not involve trees or plants‚ which I think a lot of people will be doing. I wanted to explore the devastation that acid rain does to our historic monuments and beautiful churches. My first controlled experiment is based on the Statue of Liberty. It is made of copper so I am using pennies in my experiment. (nps.gov. n.d.) My observation is that acid rain corrodes metals
