CHAPTER 1 Introduction Background of the Study Like many other hygiene convenience‚ shoe polish or can also be called boot polish is usually a wax ‚ cream or paste used by people to shine‚ water proof and restore the appearance of leather shoes. This extends the footwear’s life. This is made up of many kinds of chemicals and because of this; it can cause irritations‚ allergies to us. In our generation‚ shoe polish is used every day and companies produce a lot of it to meet the demands of

Science one world essay – Acid Rain Acid rain has been an important global issue for centuries. Although most acid rain is caused by human activities‚ some acid rain occurs naturally. An example of natural acid rain is erupting volcanos‚ they give off smoke containing water vapor‚ carbon dioxide‚ sulphur dioxide and nitrogen compounds. The sulphur dioxide and nitrogen compounds cause small amounts of acid rain near the volcano. Pure water is not an acid‚ but even clean rainwater is slightly acidic

Lab: Evaluation of the Gas Law Constant Dr. Monzyk Due 06/25/2012 Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to evaluate the gas law constant. The ideal gas law is represented as PV=nRT‚ where R represents the gas law constant. To determine R‚ we must find the other parameters‚ P‚ V‚ n and T through the experiment. Equipment and Materials: Large beaker Ring stand Clamp Copper wire 100 mL eudiometer tube Magnesium (Mg) ribbon M6 H2SO4 (Sulfuric Acid) Wash bottle filled with distilled

Right to self-determination All of us have the right to self-determination. In a far view‚ right of self-determination simply means that all people have the right to freely determine their political status and pursue their economic‚ social and cultural development. This merely involves the freedom to acquire and dispose of property and wealth generally as the person choses. Right to self-determination is an unalienable right; the government can’t take the right away. The specific right applies

Determination of Sulfate by Gravimetry Jose Luis E. De Guzman University of Santo Tomas‚ Sampaloc‚ Manila The determination of the percentage of sulfate in a sample is done as an instrument of learning a quantitative method of analysis‚ i.e.‚ of the gravimetric analysis. This type of analysis‚ which makes use of the weight of the samples was used for the experiment and required the precipitation of our analyte‚ SO4-2‚ and its filtration as a BaSO4 precipitate so as for weighing it. The weight

CHEMICAL REACTIONS: ACID-BASE BUFFERS Short Overview Acids and bases represent two of the most common classes of compounds. Many studies have been done on these compounds‚ and their reactions are very important. Perhaps the most important reaction is the one in which an acid and base are combined‚ resulting in the formation of water (in aqueous solution) and a salt; this reaction is called neutralization. A buffer solution is a solution that contains both an acid and a salt containing

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
