The Soothing Sensation That is Bath Salts Introduction “Oh yeah‚ me and my girlfriend have a big bag of lavender bath salts sitting at home‚” was the initial reaction when I asked a fellow engineer to portray as a testimonial for our borderline inappropriate bath salts infomercial. Contrary to popular belief‚ this new synthetic drug is far away from producing any effects that are similar to that of a relaxing bath. Until recently‚ bath salts were popularized to be a “legal high.” In order to tip

THE EFFECT OF INCREASING THE CONCENTRATION OF DETTOL ANTISEPTIC LIQUID ON THE GROWTH OF E.COLI Background: Escherichia coli are rod shaped‚ gram negative bacteria often found in the gut of humans and other warm-blooded mammals (Jacques & Ngo‚ 2004). It is transmitted primarily through faecal contaminated food and water. Most strains of E. coli are not harmful to humans‚ however some strains are pathogenic and can cause symptoms including diarrhoea (Unknown‚ 2012). The active ingredient in Dettol

VARYING EFFECTS OF ENZYME CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATES OF MALATE DEHYDROGENASE CELL BIOLOGY 13 NOVEMBER 2007 Enzymes are biological catalysts. They are proteins that speed up reactions with low concentrations. These enzyme proteins are made up of linkages of amino acids. The links coil‚ and coil again forming a tertiary structure. This structure has a groove in it called an active site. The active site is

EXPERIMENT TO SHOW THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATION OF GLUCOSE ON POTATO STRIPS INTRODUCTION: Molecules of liquid and gas are constantly in motion‚ they move randomly in all directions and bounce around in all directions and bounce around and into each other. As they move‚ they tend to spread out moving from areas with many molecules to areas with fewer molecules . This process of spreading out is called Diffusion‚ for example smell of cooking travelling around the house from the kitchen

saltwater. Both can drown you but in completely difference ways. Drowning in saltwater is not as dangerous as it counterpart due to how easily you can recover from it. When you breathe in saltwater it goes in the lungs and sits there. Because the salt concentration of saltwater is really high compared to the cells in the lungs the water does not pass through and into the cells. The water is hypertonic so for the body to reach equilibrium with saltwater‚ water from the blood cells are sent out into the

Biology Investigation: Effect of different concentrations of sucrose solutions on the mass of potatoes Research question Is the mass of potatoes going to be smaller or bigger in different sucrose concentration? Introduction Osmosis is a process that occurs at a cellular level that entails the spontaneous net movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration in order to equalize the level of water

Let’s Make Salt Purpose: Could NaCl be made using NaHCO3‚ hydrochloric acid‚ and a boiling chip? Hypothesis: If I combined NaHCO3‚ hydrochloric acid‚ and a boiling chip I think it will form NaCl because when you balance the equation it makes a new chemical reaction. Materials needed: test tube cleaner‚ test tube‚ test tube tongs‚ hot plate‚ a scale‚ graduated cylinder‚ water‚ goggles‚ fire retardant glove‚ beaker‚ test tube holder‚ a scoopula‚ hydrochloric acid‚ sodium bicarbonate‚ soap‚ pipette
