The identification of acids and bases using a natural indicator Purpose: The purpose of this lab practice is to identify the pH of certain solutions and if they are acids or bases. Introduction: In chemistry‚ pH is a measure of the activity of the (solvated) hydrogen ion. p[H]‚ which measures the hydrogen ion concentration‚ is closely related to‚ and is often written as‚ pH. Depending on the pH solutions will be acids or bases. An acid is a chemical compound that dissociates in solution‚ releasing

Microscope lab report Introduction Microscope is a tool used to enlarge images of small objects that are hard to study with bare eyes. The compound light microscope‚ which is going to be used in this lab activity‚ is an instrument with two lenses and various knobs to focus the image. In this lab‚ we will learn about the proper use and handling of the microscope. Objectives: •Demonstrate the appropriate procedures used while using the compound light microscope correctly. •Make and use a wet mount

Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to see how the changes in exercise intensity affect the rate of metabolism within the body. Methods: In this lab‚ indirect calorimetry was used to measure metabolic rate by calculating caloric expenditure by the measurements of oxygen consumption. The variables measured were the fraction of oxygen expired‚ the fraction of carbon dioxide expired‚ and the total volume of air inspired. This experiment required the participation of two volunteers. First‚ the variables

The human cardiovascular system consists of the heart‚ the blood‚ and a system of transporting vessels. A human heart has four chambers: a right and left atrium and a right and left ventricle. The fist-sized heart sits in its own sac (the pericardium) in the middle of the chest under the sternum. In most people‚ the apex of the heart points to the left. There are two circuits of simultaneous blood flow in humans: a pulmonary circuit and a systemic circuit. In the pulmonary circuit‚ the right

What is Photosynthesis? Its general reference is sunlight protons converted into resourceful energy‚ of which are autotrophs that work and feed themselves independently. To be more scientific using its equation 6CO2 + 6H2O – Sunlight Energy – C6H12O6 + 6H2O‚ carbon dioxide particles travel through a leaf’s cell surface‚ which is where the chloroplast organelle produces “chlorophyll molecules forming a light harvesting complex absorbing that energy‚ exciting electrons” ((n.d.).

meaning that less heat escapes. While the hood worked well‚ there are several ways it could be improved. Firstly‚ would be to have the bottom of the hood lower down‚ so it completely covered the top of the shrowd meaning more of the hot air which rises will be pushed up towards the water barrel and there will be less lost into the environment. Secondly would be to increase the surface area of the barrel touching the hot air by having a narrow skinnier barrel. Thirdly‚ by using a retort stand with

common notions of hot and cold. Objects of low temperature are cold‚ while various degrees of higher temperatures are referred to as warm or hot. When a heat transfer path between them is open‚ heat spontaneously flows from bodies of a higher temperature to bodies of lower temperature. The flow rate increases with the temperature difference‚ while no heat will be exchanged between bodies of the same temperature‚ which are then said to be in "thermal equilibrium".
