Does Temperature of Kernels Affect Popcorn Yield? Project Design Plan This experiment will attempt to determine if the temperature that popcorn kernels are stored at will affect the amount of un-popped kernels when using a hot air popcorn popper. Popcorn kernels contain moisture inside of them which‚ when heated‚ turns to steam and expands that in turn causes the kernel to explode. Popcorn.org states that loss of moisture content can cause less yield amounts when popping popcorn (popcorn.org‚ 2014)

Data Analysis Does temperature affect the strength of Gorilla Glue? If two pieces of wood are glued together at a 90° angle and one is put in the freezer‚one at room temperature‚ and one heated‚ then the glued wood from the freezer will be stronger. The independent variable was the temperature. The dependent variable was the strength of the glue. Some constant variables were the amount of glue‚ the type of glue‚ and the type of wood used. The experimental group was the temperatures. The control group

manual. The independent variable in this experiment was temperature as it was the effects of temperature that was being measured. The dependent variable were ventilation rates and oxygen consumption as they were being measured. There were 10 fish per treatment level. There were two treatment levels‚ 25 C and 15 C. Ten fish tanks per treatment level were set up‚ the first group of fish tank were filled with spring water and kept at room temperature of 25 C‚ whereas‚ the second group of fish tank were

a time when we are no longer young as we used to be before‚ but in fact we will start to age as the years go by. This can affect how we react to certain things and how quickly we respond. People who are older have nerve impulses that react more slowly and will have a slower reaction time than people who are younger. I think that as we grow older our reaction time does decrease.

Science Coursework-Rates of Reactions Introduction Investigating how the concentration of sodium-thiosulphate (STS) and hydrochloric acid (HCL) affects the rate of reaction in the experiment. In addition I am also checking how different variables affect my experiment and also how I can make my test more precise‚ reliable and accurate. Strategy According to my results‚ as the concentration of STS solution increased the rate of reaction of my experiment was increased. Also as the concentration

How Enzyme Concentration can Affect Rate of Reaction The purpose of this investigation was to see how the concentration of an enzyme affected the rate at which a substance was broken down. We did this by using a white protein called casein. Casein is found in milk powder‚ it is a protein and used mainly as a binding agent in foods‚ because it is mad to proteins and joins to a phosphoric acid it belong to a group called the phophoproteins. In terms of in milk it is said to be healthier if it is

the heart‚ it increases which makes the left ventricle expand and adapt to a different situation. Due to this‚ the heart can register a higher level of blood and eject it at a faster rate to all living cells and membranes. This increases the heart rate because the movement of blood is faster than the resting heart rate. When performing a strength training exercise‚ the muscles contract allowing blood vessels to pass in and out. This builds the pressure in the body as well as increases the amount of

Does concentration affect the speed of chemical reactions? Problem: We are proving that “concentration” (the amount of reactants) is one of the things that can affect the speed of chemical reactions. We are also finding a way to keep the lid on the film canister for the longest period of time. We are using vinegar and water as reactants and changing the concentration every time to see the difference between the rates of reactions speed. Materials: - 1 graduated cylinder - 1 film canister

concentration of a species can affect reaction rate in the determination of rate law and rate constant. 2. To determine how temperature affects reaction rate. Introduction Chemical kinetics deals with the speed‚ or rate‚ of a reaction and the mechanism by which the reaction occurs. We can think of the rate as the number of events per unit time. The rate at which you drive (your speed) is the number of miles you drive in an hour (mi/hr). For a chemical reaction the rate is the number of moles that

Effect of Concentration on Reaction Rate Aim: To use a simple reaction between sodium thiosulphate and hydrochloric acid to discover concentration this determines how fast chemical reactions occur. Independent Variable: Concentration of hydrochloric acid (%) Dependent Variable: Time taken for chemical reaction to take place (sec) Hypothesis: My prediction is that the increased concentration of the thiosulfate will in turn lead to an increase in the rate of reaction. This is a well informed
