Modified Winkler method for dissolved oxygen determination Abstract In this study the group has determined the presence of oxygen in sample through a modified winkler method. The amount of oxygen is determined through a series of reaction. A body of water can sustain life if dissolved oxygen is sufficed. Depletions in dissolved oxygen can cause major shifts in the kinds of aquatic organisms found in water bodies. Introduction The amount of dissolved oxygen present in water or wastewater is

What are the causes‚ symptoms and treatments for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)? Introduction “Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a lung ailment that is characterized by a persistent blockage of airflow from the lungs” ( World Health Organisation (WHO) website‚ nd). This report will examine the causes‚ symptoms and treatment of COPD. It will discuss current statistics on COPD and some of the current treatments available.

Oxygen (1770s) [pic] British educator and philosopher Joseph Priestley (1733 – 1804) discovered oxygen in experiments‚ isolated the gas‚ and described its function in combustion and respiration. He also invented soda or carbonated water by dissolving fixed air with water. Unaware of the significance of his discoveries and because of his stubborn refusal to abandon the phlogiston theory‚ he named the new gas “dephlogisticated air.” However‚ it would be the French chemist Antoine Lavoisier (1743

COPD Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a lung disease that makes it hard to breathe. COPD refers to two lung diseases‚ emphysema‚ and chronic bronchitis and is an obstruction to breathing that decreases air exchange in the lungs. Emphysema does not always coexist with chronic bronchitis. Asthma‚ Pulmonary Fibrosis‚ or Pulmonary Hypertension is not diagnosed as COPD. Some people may think they simply have a "smoker’s cough" or that breathlessness is just a part of getting older. It

convert oxygen into Co2. Introduction: The process by which organisms release energy from food is called respiration. There are two categories of respiration‚ depending on the amount of oxygen available. Aerobic respiration is the most common type of respiration. It requires oxygen- the reason why you are breathing right now. Anaerobic respiration requires no oxygen. The experiment which will take place is the aerobic respiration. Earthworms will be examined‚ to determine if oxygen is converted

Research also shows‚ “that COPD is the world’s leading cause of morbidity‚ and mortality‚ and that patient are confronted with daily life limitations” (Decates). Some can’t go outside or live where there is a deal less humidity in the air‚ some may not be able to walk very far‚ or have use a wheel chair instead

Introduction Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is defined as the amount of a specified oxidant that reacts with the sample under controlled conditions. The quantity of oxidant consumed is expressed in terms of its oxygen equivalence. Because of its unique chemical properties‚ the dichromate ion (Cr2O72–) is the specified oxidant in Methods
