Question/Purpose: The Question or Purpose of our lab is to answer the question “How is the germination of a seed affected by sunlight?” Experimental Hypothesis: We believe these results will occur. 1. The seeds that are water deprived (1 mL of H2O a day) will not grow very well due to a lack of water which is important in photosynthesis and also lacks nutrients. The seeds may also die off due to a lack of water. 2. The seeds that are have a proper amount of water (10 mL of

Experiment 3: Enthalpy of Various Reactions Introduction A coffee cup calorimeter is an apparatus that is used to measure the quantity of thermal energy gained or lost in a chemical reaction. This experiment utilizes this apparatus‚ which is made from two styrofoam cups with plastic lids and a thermometer‚ to measure changes in thermal energy of various reactions. When using this type of apparatus‚ it is assumed that no heat is transferred between the calorimeter and the surroundings‚ and that

Flame Test Lab Morgan Chemistry CP 5/30/14 Abstract- In the flame test lab‚ the flame test was performed to excite the electrons in the samples and observe the color of the flame. The flame emits a color because each element has an exactly defined emission spectrum‚ which one can use to identify them. For example‚ NaCl was highlighter yellow‚ Sr(NO3)2 was sun orange‚ CuCl2 was turquoise‚ LiCl was neon red‚ KCl was solar flare yellow‚ and BaCl2 was Voldemort green. Introduction- In Bohr’s

The Silver Spring Monkey Case which involves the mistreatment of monkeys in The Institute for Behavioral Research started People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) turned out to be one of the biggest‚ most profitable‚ and fast growing animal rights groups. PETA and its founder Alex Pacheco attracted the public’s attention with the Silver Spring Monkey Case and the reaction of the public and other animal right’s associations started an animal rights revolution. Alex Pacheco was cofounder

Ocean County College Department of Chemistry Chem 180 Lab 5: Ionic Reactions Submitted by Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to work with aqueous solutions of ionic substances. Aqueous solutions are those solutions in which water is the solvent. When ionic substances are dissolved in water‚ the ions separate and become surrounded by water molecules. The focus of this experiment is on precipitates. The goal of this experiment is to study the nature of ionic reactions‚ write balanced

iLab‚ Week #2 CATIONS AND ANION LAB Introduction In this experiment we will be mixing two ionic compounds: potassium chromate and lead nitrate; both are soluble in water. This will be demonstrating a double-replacement reaction/reactions between cations and anions. If a reaction does occur it will form a precipitate due to one of the newly formed compounds not being soluble in water. Once the experiment was completed there was what appears to be a “solid” substance remaining in the
