PROJECT IN CHEM LAB. Submitted by: BHEA MARIE MENDOZA Submitted to: -CATIONS and ANIONS- Cations are positive charged ions. A cation has fewer electrons than protons. Anions are negatively charged ions. An anion has more electron than protons. The nature and magnitude of charge on ion depend on the position of an element in the periodic table. In forming an ion‚ an atom of a main group element loses gains electrons to obtain the electronic configuration of the noble gas

By the year 2050 the world’s population will reach 9.1 million. In order to feed this larger population food production must increase. And it demands high crop yield to provide food for all. For this purpose the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has been very high. Though satisfactory crop yield is obtained by the application of chemical fertilizers and pesticides‚ their use brings out certain disadvantages. These include pollution of large water resources‚ destruction of microorganisms

Vertical farming is cultivating plant or animal life within skyscrapers or on vertically inclined surfaces. The idea of a vertical farm has existed at least since the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. A vertical farm would be a large‚ independently operating structure centrally located in a major city. It would feature two multi-storey‚ skyscraper-like buildings working together- one to manage food production with nutrient film techniques‚ and another to manage waste through living machines and generate
