Experiment #8: Limiting Reactant Abstract In chemical reactions‚ the significance of knowing the limiting reactant is high. In order to increase the percent yield of product‚ increasing the limiting reactant‚ possibly‚ is the most effective. In this experiment we were able to calculate limiting reactants from the reaction of CaCl2. 2H2O + K2C2O4.H2O(aq). As a group‚ we obtained our salt mixture of calcium chloride and potassium oxalate‚ and weighed the mixture. We were able to make an aqueous

crimes occurring when there is police present. These strategies were made to reduce the crimes and make the public feel more safe in the street. The Kansas City Experiment started on October 1972 and continued to 1973 ‚ it was administered by the Kansas City Police Department and evaluated by the Police Foundation. The Kansas City Experiment tested the use of preventive patrol on crime rates and citizens fear of crime. The police foundation divided Kansas into fifteen different areas‚ and those fifteen

emotions‚ and moods are too subjective. Contributions in the development of the behaviorist theory largely came from Pavlov‚ Watson‚ Thorndike and Skinner. Ivan Pavlov is well known for this work in classical conditioning or stimulus substitution. This experiment involved meat‚ dog and a bell. It measures the dog’s salivation in order to study the behavior of the dog through conditioning. Edward L. Thorndike have the theory of connectionism that has a framework of stimulus-response of behavioral psychology

The cerebellum of the brain‚ the “little brain”‚ is located at the rear of the brainstem. The tissue is folded into itself several times and each layer helps with the organization on the mind. It is clear that the cerebellum has an essential job because over time it has grown‚ by studying fossilized skulls it has been exposed that the cerebellum has increased to three times its size over the past million years. This small lump of tissue was first discussed by Ray S. Snider in an article written

Parachute Experiment Aim: To investigate the effect of surface area on a performance (more the amount of a parachute better the performance) of a parachute. Hypothesis- More the amount of holes in a parachute‚ faster the rate of the fall. Variables: Dependent variable- The time it takes for the parachute to reach the ground. Control variables:Mass > Adding or subtracting mass from the load. > Clay can be molded around the load to increase mass. > Parts of the load can be cut off to decrease the

If one goes out before we wake up‚ we will get two more of the same type of battery and watch it during the day. Variables Our variable is the different brand of batteries. The controlled condition is the same type of flashlights. Results Our experiment showed that Rayovac outlasted all of the other batteries we tested by at more than two hours. The Eveready battery‚ which is a regular‚ non-alkaline battery‚ lasted only 6 hours and 35 minutes. The Duracell lasted 15 hours. The Energizer lasted

also sometimes called dissolution‚ is the process of attraction and association of molecules of a solvent with molecules or ions of a solute. As ions dissolve in a solvent they spread out and become surrounded by solvent molecules. Example: As an ionic compound dissolves‚ such as NaCl‚ the ions become surrounded by the solvent‚ say H2O(water) molecules. The ions are said to be ’solvated’ as they become surrounded by the solvent‚ similar to a hoard of bees surrounding a nest. The solvation process

Experiment C. Aim: To protect one of two carbonyl groups (C1) in order to allow the other to react twice with a Grignard followed by removal of the protecting group by acid hydrolysis to give final product (C2). Method: Ethyl acetoacetate (30.03g)‚ ethylene glycol (15.01g) and toluene-p-sulphonic acid (0.13g) were added to a 250 cm3 round bottomed flask‚ containing a stirrer bar and toluene (100 cm3)‚ fitted with a condenser and dean-stark head. Solution was heated strongly under reflux using
