The Law of Conservation states that mass can neither be created or destroyed. There are two types of changes that can happen‚ a physical change is when the reaction can be reversed and all reactants are separated. A chemical change is when the reaction changes the reactants and creates a brand new substances that can’t be reversed. Antoine Lavoisier had the main contribution to The Law of Conservation. He wrote a textbook in 1789 on chemistry in it he introduced the Law of Conservation. He founded

This collision would look like: 1.5 kg‚ 0.7 m/s 1 kg‚ 0m/s m1+m2=1.5 kg‚ vf=2.38 m/s Experimental Design The purpose of this lab is to determine the mathematical equation relating the total system momentum of 2 carts before a collision (Pi) to the total system momentum of the 2 carts after the collision (Pf.). Some constants may be: the weight of the bars‚ the carts‚ the point

Energy Lab On November 13th‚ we did a lab to learn about energy. The definition of Kinetic Energy is energy of movement. The definition of Gravitational Potential Energy is energy in an object due to its positioning. The question that we had to answer was whether of not we could calculate the Gravitational Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy of various objects in different locations. To do this lab we had to first weigh the given objects. For this time‚ we weighed : a marble‚ a bouncy ball‚

Lab: Energy Stored in Food Background Questions (5 points each = 10 points): 1. What happens to the molecules of the food that we eat during digestion? 2. What type of metabolism is this? Background information: In this lab we will attempt to set a variety of different types of food on fire and capture the heat energy that is given off. The heat energy from the burning comes form the energy stored in the chemical bonds of the food. The more energy in the bonds‚ the more heat the food will

The glass transition activation energy‚ Et‚ is among the important characteristic parameters of the glasses. Et is defined as the amount of energy absorbed by a group of atoms in the glassy region and therefore‚ a jump from one metastable state to another is possible. In addition‚ the activation energy of glass transition can be obtained as a function of the glass transition temperature‚ Tg‚ using the second approach proposed by Kissinger [26]:

Energy Conservation 1 Energy conservation is the reduction or elimination of unnecessary energy use and waste. This practice may result in increase human comfort‚ personal security‚ national security‚ environmental value‚ and financial capital. There are many activities that people can do to conserve energy and help not only themselves‚ but also the environment and everyone around them. Conserving energy is important because most of our current energy sources are not renewable. When using

Energy Conservation Reflexive diary: Individual essay Before completing this reflexive diary I would have considered myself fairly energy conscious. I would have still said I’m wasteful but I thought I was more aware than others. I thought I knew more about the environmental consequences of wasting energy than I did. Completing this diary really opened my eyes to the amount we all waste energy unnecessarily. Almost all of us don’t have a clue how much energy we consume. I had never thought about

Chemistry design: Fuel energy lab Research question: What is the energy density of cyclohexane‚ and how does it compare to the energy density of normal hexane? Variables: Independent variable – The independent variable in this experiment will be the type of fuel that will be used. This will be either Hexane or Cyclohexane. Each type will be given to us and labelled so it will be quite simple to control this variable. This cannot be measured using any apparatus so the lab assistant must be entrusted
