Lab 2 – Water Quality and Contamination Experiment 1: Effects of Groundwater Contamination Table 1: Water Observations (Smell‚ Color‚ Etc.) Beaker Observations 1 Water is clear and uncontaminated. 2 All of the vegetable oil goes to the top of the beaker. 3 The water looks slightly cloudy but not too contaminated. 4 The water changed colors with the detergent and was clearly contaminated. 5 Water was murky from the dirt. 6 The water did not look as contaminated filtering with oil as it did with

an initial height of 4 feet at an initial velocity of 350 feet per second. The gravitational force of Earth is pulling the rocket down at a rate of 16 feet per second per second. The formula for‚ s(t)‚ for the function that models the height of the water balloon at time t‚ in seconds‚ is s(t)= -16t2 + 350t + 4. We can determine how long it takes for the rocket to land from the graph where the function intercepts the x-axis because this is the value where the height of the rocket is 0 feet. From the

2.4.4. Direct determination of saliva proteins Protein contaminated with nucleic acids absorbed the light at wavelength 280 nm and it absorbs much strongly at wavelength 205 nm when it is free from nucleic acids. The UV-visible spectrophotometer was used in determination of saliva proteins (Figure 2.2). Cold trichloroacetic acid (10 % w/v ) was added to the sample‚ centrifuged for 10 minutes to precipitate protein. The absorbance of a known volume

Purpose: During our lab‚ Galileo’s Water Clock‚ we created our lab to describe the motion of a ball on a plane using the water clock as an alternative method for measuring time. Our main purpose in this lab was to determine if the displacement of the ball is determined by the time or the time squared. Procedure: Once the water clock was set up‚ a ball was let go from the ramp at various distances for three trials each. Once the ball was let go‚ the water clamp was opened and then immediately

Gravimetric determination of sulphate in fertiliser Question: The proportion of sulphate present in a brand of commercial fertiliser under a range of temperatures. Fertilisers provide plants with a number of sources necessary for them to grow‚ as follows‚ nitrogen‚ phosphorus‚ potassium and finally the one I will be concentrating on Sulfur. To cater for the varying plants‚ you wouldn’t require all these elements to the same extent as the necessities for each plant differ. The composition of different

...............................(1) Measurement of Relative Water Content (RWC%);Relative Turgidity (RT %): Relative water content was estimated according to a modification of the method of Weatherly (1950); Weatherly and Barr (1962); Slatyer (1957);Fletcher et al. (1988)on the final day of the experiment and was calculated by the formula given byKramer (1983).Detached leaf samples were weight immediately and floated on distilled water in a darkened refrigerator (5˚C).

Experiment 3: Cryoscopic Determination of Molecular Weight Aim: The primary objective of the experiment is to calculate the total molecular mass of the compound benzoic acid in a predetermined amount of cyclohexane. Introduction: One of the key concepts in this experiment is the term freezing point depression. The definition of this phrase is that when a solute is dissolved into a solvent‚ their collective boiling point will be less than that of the original boiling point of the solvent. This incidentally

Pennsylvania State University Lab Report on Experiment 10- The Chemistry of Natural Waters Introduction What is water hardness? Water is extremely important to all living things and even to non-living things‚ indirectly. Therefore‚ the way water travels and gets to a place is also extremely important because its transportation methods determine the chemicals that get involved and added into the water as it travels. This relates to the hardness of water. The hardness of water is basically caused by the
