2012 Abstract: We conducted several experiments using the Scientific Method. We made observations‚ recorded them and used our observations to propose a hypothesis. The experiments included chemical and physical reactions dealing with torn news paper‚ appearance of rock salt crystals‚ the appearance of sand‚ oil and water on plastic‚ and making iodine in water and mineral oil. We found that all these included four physical changes and two chemical changes. This was important in determining the substance

Osmosis Lab Report The essential focus of the experiment was to acquire data for the mass change resulting from osmosis in order to determine the carbohydrate solution of the carrot cells. The carrots were a vegetable used within the experiment with a carbohydrate solution around .5 M. The hypothesis is if there are carrots in different carbohydrate solutions then there will be a percent change in mass. The carrots have large vacuoles that hold water‚ this allows the mass to increase when the hypertonic

Abstract The purpose of this research paper is to prove or disprove the hypothesis of the less gun control we have will result in a decrease in murder rates. After analyzing the findings‚ the majority of the articles advocated that the correlation between gun control and murder rates is that the less gun control equals less murder rates. This is due to the fact that countries in the past have tried banning handguns but ended up with higher murder rates. An even more gun control ended up increasing

Success of Dugesia tigrina regeneration in different water temperatures Abstract: The experiment at hand aimed to determine if the species Duguesia tigrina has an optimal temperature for regeneration. The experiment used three different spring water treatments of different temperatures. The treatments included a cool 12° treatment‚ a room temperature 25° treatment‚ and a warm 30° treatment. Each of the D. tigrina were cut in half‚ and each half was placed into a designated section of a water treatment
