Melting Ice Caps The Arctic is global warming’s canary in the coal mine. It is a highly sensitive area which is profoundly affected by the changing climate. The average temperature in the Arctic is rising twice as fast as elsewhere in the world (nrdc.org). Because of this‚ the ice cap is getting thinner‚ melting away‚ and rupturing. Here is an example of this; the largest ice block in the Arctic‚ the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf‚ had been around for 3000 years before it started cracking in 2000 (nrdc

Why is Dark Chocolate Healthy?: Chocolate is made from plants‚ which means it contains many of the health benefits of dark vegetables. These benefits are from flavonoids‚ which act as antioxidants. Antioxidants protect the body from aging caused by free radicals‚ which can cause damage that leads to heart disease. Dark chocolate contains a large number of antioxidants (nearly 8 times the number found in strawberries). Flavonoids also help relax blood pressure through the production of nitric oxide

Lab #1: Melting Points of Organic Compounds Report Form May 15‚ 2014 1. A “Melting Point Range” refers to the range of temperature at which a solid melts into its liquid state. 2. Pure compounds have narrow or ‘sharp’ melting point ranges‚ 1°C or less if the compound is very pure. A less pure compound exhibits a broader melting point range‚ between 3°C to 10°C as well as a depressed or lower range. 3. Crushing the sample allows for greater surface area-to-volume ratio of the powder‚ this

Crystallization and Melting Points Organic Chemistry 221 9/19/2012 Intro/Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to use crystallization to separate a compound from a solvent and be able to choose the best solvent to do so. Then identify an unknown and verify purity using melting points. Solubility contributes to crystallization; because a solute has lower solubility at lower temperatures‚ which makes the solvent separate from the solution as a solid. This process is important to understand because
