covers assessment criteria 5 and 6 The Photoelectric effect‚ and the Production of Light In 1887 Hertz discovered the photoelectric effect‚ where electrons were emitted from a zinc surface when illuminated with ultra-violet light. These electrons (called ‘photoelectrons’) were only emitted when the frequency of the ultra-violet light was above a certain value (called the ‘threshold frequency’). Criteria 5c Assume that ultra-violet light is falling onto a piece of zinc‚ and photoelectrons are

The Effect of Light Intensity The effect of different light wavelengths was tested in the following experiment. The rate of photosynthesis can be affected depending on the light treatment it receives. With the aid of DPIP acting as NADPH in photosynthesis‚ it was possible to observe the reaction as it took place. Samples were created with dark‚ 24 cm‚ 30 cm‚ and 49 cm light treatments. The absorbance was measured in five-minute intervals for each sample and recorded in an appropriate table

The Effect of Different Light Colours on Plant Growth Dianne R. Calub Marshela Alpha B. Gesmundo BS-Environmental Science Prof. Jayson Antonio Chemistry Department January 04‚ 2012 Abstract The goal of this study is to learn how the colour of light affects photosynthesis‚ to identify the effects of different coloured lights on plant growth‚ and to identify the potential use of different light colours as a growth regulator. An experiment was performed with the help of 7 students. Mustard

be defined as light energy being converted into chemical energy‚ which is a very important process for plants and other organisms. Light can be described in terms of light quantity and light quality. Both of these have an affect on photosynthesis. The more light a plant absorbs the more the plant is able to photosynthesize. This light is absorbed though pigments which have specific interactions with certain light waves (colors). The goal of my first experiment was to test the effect that which different

After the leaves of the seed are exposed to light‚ photosynthesis provides the seed with food and the food stores are no longer needed. In this research‚ the relationship between Mung bean light exposure and germination will be investigated. In order for germination to take place certain external factors are needed. Water must be available for the seed to hydrate

have light‚ air and water in order to grow. Light is a major component because plants need it in order to survive in their habitats because they use it to make food through photosynthesis. Light is also used to reflect off a natural green color‚ which is absorbed by the green pigment‚ chlorophyll. Aim What effects does sunlight and no light have on growing plants? The goal of this lab is to determine the effects of different approaches of growing seedlings and to understand these effects. Hypothesis

Effect of light on Silver Halide Salts Aim: To investigate the effect of sunlight and UV light on silver salts and to identify an application of this reaction. Hypothesis: The compounds exposed to sunlight (which already contains UV light) will decompose. The compounds which are not exposed to light (put in a dark place) will not decompose. Theory: Equipment: * 4 x petri dishes * 1 x glass stirring rod * 0.1 mol/L silver nitrate in a dropper bottle * 0.1 mol/L Sodium chloride
