Magnesium is one of the twenty-four elements on earth that are essential for life. It is vital in human metabolism; and if our magnesium levels are too high or too low‚ we could suffer from sleep disturbances. Magnesium is a very common element found on earth that is used for a lot of everyday items. Much of what we have today would not be possible without magnesium. Magnesium was originally discovered by Sir Humphry Davy in 1808‚ but some are not sure if he officially isolated the element. It was

9/23/12 Lab Report #1 Meter Reading Summary The objective of this experiment was to learn how to read different meters like the D.C. volt meter and the D.C. amperes meter. In all meters each big line is a major division and each little line in between is a minor division‚ and if there is a line smaller than the minor division lines then that would be a sub minor division. Each meter has a low‚ medium‚ and high range. For example on the D.C. volt meter the ranges go from top to bottom 150‚ 15‚

Our flame test was in lab class‚ where the main aim was to tested different solid metals in the flame in order to observe the wide variety of colors those chemicals also sometimes compounds (by mixing them) they produced‚ the second one was to identify unknown metals based on

Lab Report Diffusion is - One of two kinds of passive transport‚ - Diffusion can transport ions from higher concentration to lower concentration region without any other forces. - A net movement of molecules in and out of cell membrane - Diffusion can be affected by the steepness of the concentration gradient. Lab question: Is the rate of diffusion influenced by the presence of second molecule? Prediction: the rate of diffusion is influenced by the presence of second molecule

go through the whole process of osmosis. Also‚ a lot of the experiment was rushed as we were under pressure to finish as quickly as possible. Unfortunately the time constraint was caused by and outside influence unrelated to the lab itself‚ and so next time we could do a lab under normal conditions where there are no outside disturbances. There were weight differences in the potatoes which could have caused thicker potatoes to absorb more than others. It was a little impossible to obtain the same

during the lab session Procedure Part A This lab was performed by the group members as they closed both low and high flow rotameters (Fig-2) and filled the tank with water. Then‚ the large rotameter was opened when the water in the tank had reached the internal baffle‚ so the flow from the tank was reduced by doing so. One member was in charge of adjusting the level of the water so it was always maintained over the baffle’s level during the lab (Fig-1). The first part of the lab was done

measured and the result was divided by 20 for better accuracy. This procedure was repeated for the sizes and the results are as follows: Diameter (mm) Mass (kg) 2 0.04 3 0.075 4 0.11 To find out the densities of the three balls‚ the following formula was used: Density= (mass of the ball)/(Volume of the ball)= mass/(4/3 π r^3 ) Density of 2mm ball = (0.04⁄1000)/(4/3 π 〖(0.001)〗^3 )=9551 kg/m^3 Density of 3 mm ball = (0.075⁄1000)/(4/3 π 〖(0.0015)〗^3 )=5305.16 kg/m^3 Density of 3

Lab Report Marisa McKinney P. 2 Purpose: To investigate the periodic variation of density in Group 4A elements. Background: When the elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number‚ they exhibit periodic recurrence of properties. Elements in the same group in the periodic table tend to have similar physical and chemical properties. These similarities are due‚ in large part‚ to similarities among the electron configurations of the elements in a group. You can find periodic

Crystallization: Lab Report Theory/Introduction The purpose of this lab is to understand the concept of purification through crystallization. Crystallization is the process of purifying a substance‚ with the most adequate solvent. The process of crystallization came to be based on the principle of solubility. First‚ we must choose a solvent. The solvent is crucial to crystallization because it’s what will allow impurities to dissolve. Therefore‚ when selecting a solvent it is important that it
