Percent Water in a Hydrate PURPOSE To determine the percent water in a hydrate sample. INTRODUCTION Many substances contain water molecules as a part of their crystal structure. We call such solids hydrates‚ and we call the bound water the water of hydration. A hydrate has a definite number of water molecules bound to each anhydrous salt unit. The formula of the hydrate copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate is CuSO4 · 5 H2O The dot indicates that the molecules of water are attached to the ions in

Results The above results show the data collected after a week of measuring the biggest plant per bag. Each day the biggest radish plant in site A was measured and by day five the largest plant was 5 centimeters long‚ and had developed small green leaves. By the 5th day site B and D’s seeds showed no signs of growing and length remained at 0 centimeters. Site C and D’s superior seed both grew a total of 3 centimeters according to the 5th day measurements. Both the graph and table display the same results

are about a million different kinds of seeds in our world with all of the different types of plants that we have. One type of seed that takes between three to five days to germinate is a daikon radish. The radish (Raphanus sativus ) originated from China. It was commonly seen and eaten by the people of Egypt long before the Egyptians started to construct their very own pyramids. Later on‚ radishes became a common vegetable to eat in Greece‚ and since the radish meant so much worth for the Greeks‚ they

Water Rocket Lab Kinematics: Motion in Two Dimensions Cindy Cao AP Physics 1-212 Changzhou Senior High School of Jiangsu Province Abstract This paper introduces an experiment about launching a water rocket. The projectile motion of this water rocket will be examined.In this experiment‚the water rocket will be launched at 4 different angles 30°，45°60°and 90 °.We will measure the ranges‚maximum altitudes and air time in order to have a better understanding of the projectile motion.As the practical

Sacramento tap water reveals ion concentrations of various different dissolved minerals such as calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+). These concentrations are a result of mineral deposits in local lakes and rivers. Perma Pure‚ a gas conditioning products manufacturing company‚ simplifies the mechanism of ion exchange by explaining that water is a solvent that dissolves most ionic bonds when exposed to compounds ("The Mechanism of Ion Exchange"). Therefore‚ as tap water passes through rocks it will

...............................(1) Measurement of Relative Water Content (RWC%);Relative Turgidity (RT %): Relative water content was estimated according to a modification of the method of Weatherly (1950); Weatherly and Barr (1962); Slatyer (1957);Fletcher et al. (1988)on the final day of the experiment and was calculated by the formula given byKramer (1983).Detached leaf samples were weight immediately and floated on distilled water in a darkened refrigerator (5˚C).

urpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine the impact of light on the germination of seeds Research: A seed is the reproductive unit of a plant that contains a mature ovule with an embryo. The seed is made up of the seed coat hard shell over the seed‚ two cotyledons‚ fleshy membranes that store food‚ an epicotyl‚ which forms the primary shoot‚ the radicle‚ the primary root of the seed‚ and the hypocotyl‚ the stem of the epicotyl. When the seed is triggered by water to sprout‚ a process called

Yeast Mutations due to Ultra-Violet Light Exposure Summary: Mutations have played one of the most important roles throughout life on Earth. Without genetic mutations there would not be the diversity of living species that we see today. Understanding how mutations work and how they are created is an important step in controlling and isolating genes for experimentation. In this experiment we tested the effects of Ultra-Violet light on growing single-celled yeast. We did this by first creating serial
