Calcium is an essential element for the growth and development of teeth and bones. Most of the Calcium is gained from cereals‚ fruits and vegetables‚ these foods are known to have around 10 mg of Calcium per 100 grams. A predominantly eminent intake in childhood Calcium is responsible for the bone mass in adults and it also affects the rate of bone growth. Lentils are a great source of naturally available Calcium. The regular intake of Calcium can reduce the risks of Osteoporosis‚ a disease where

IB Chemistry Lab Report Design Example— Effect of Temperature on Solubility of Potassium Chloride in Water Research question How does temperature affect the solubility of potassium chloride in water? Hypothesis As the temperature of water increases‚ the particles of solid Potassium chloride‚ KCl‚ which are absorbing energy from its surrounding‚ start moving more easily between the solution and its solid state because. According to the second law of thermodynamics‚ the particles will

Hydrolysis of tert-butyl Chloride in different solvents Practical conducted on 5 March‚ 2013 Reported by Pham Vu Hung on 10 March‚ 2013 Introduction: This practical is meant to measure the rate of reaction of the hydrolysis of tertiary-butyl chloride –a colorless‚ liquid organic compound at room temperature that is sparingly soluble in water - in water/acetone and water/isopropanol mixtures. Since there are many influencing factors for the rate of reaction‚ all are kept constant but the

The Effects Sodium Chloride has on pond water Introduction Ponds are depressions in the ground that fill with water from either run offs or melting snow or rain fall from many different weather changes. There are two types of ponds permanent and temporary. Ponds tend to be much smaller in size and are usually only six to ten feet in depth. This differs from a lake because the size of a lake is much larger and is much deeper. The temperature of a pond is usually the same from top to bottom and

Lab #18 Stoichiometry In this lab‚ we reacted aluminum foil with a copper chloride solution‚ and determined the amount of metal that should be produced‚ given the amount of aluminum used. First‚ we obtained a piece of aluminum with a mass of 0.809 g‚ and reacted it with 100 mL of Copper II Chloride‚ after heating the solution. Then‚ we filtered out the copper separated in the reaction using filter paper‚ massing 0.751 g. Once all the solution was filtered‚ we massed the new filter paper filled with

This essay will aim to discuss Calcium 47. calcium 47 is to explore bone metabolism problems or to diagnose calcium disorders. Another way it can be used is in the biomedical research of animals to study the cellular body function and the formation of bones in mammals. Calcium 47 is one of the most important segment on earth. Calcium 47 was discovered by Sir Humphry Davy in 1808.Sir Humphry Davy is a Cornish chemist and inventor also best known in these day’s for isolating a series of substances

Determination of Calcium ions in milk using titration. Background Calcium is a mineral which is essential to the human body. In fact 1.5% of the human body is made up of calcium‚ and not just the obvious uses such as bone and teeth formation but it is also a vital factor in many enzyme reactions‚ for example blood clotting. It also partakes in the regulation of the hearts rhythm. Lack of the crucial mineral can result in the build up of cadmium and lead‚ both of which are toxic. along
