A REPORT ON THE OVER-EXTRACTION OF GROUNDWATER IN QUEENSLAND Prepared for: THE IDEAS SUMMIT ON THE ENVIRONMENT Due: 22 May 2013 Submitted: 22 May 2013 Prepared By: Katie Gray Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to focus on an aspect of environmental economics‚ namely over-extraction of groundwater in Queensland and provide and evaluate a possible solution for this issue. Groundwater is a valuable resource which is not being protected in Queensland. Its preservation

INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is very important in our daily life from measurements of blood-flow rates in human artery to the measurement of liquid oxygen in a rocket. In this experiment‚ students are to adapt to various ways to measure the flow of essentially incompressible fluids by using the flow measuring apparatus. Students will also be able to understand the application of Bernoulli’s equation in this experiment. The flow is measured by using a venture meter‚ an orifice meter

0340 Qualitative Analysis Shaopeng Zhang January 26‚ 2015 I submit this laboratory report as an original document. I assert that all ideas and discussion of data contained herein is my own work unless otherwise referenced. Tessa Landauer Abstract The goal of the experiment was to isolate and purify the unknown D liquid and solid by using its acidic and basic characteristics in a chemically active extraction then to identify the unknowns by analyzing the physical properties on IR and NMR spectrums

# Now You See It – Copper Cycle Lab The purpose of the lab is to discover what happens when someone executes a series of procedures‚ beginning with copper metal. What is done | What is observed | 1. Started with copper‚ Cu (s). | reddish‚ brownish‚ orange-ish‚ powder-like | 2. Added nitric acid‚ HNO3 (aq). | acid turns blue and smells like chlorine. | 3. Added water‚ H2O (l). | stayed the same | 4. Added sodium hydroxide‚ NaOH (aq). | changed consistency‚ gel-like | 5. Heated the

A lot of guys turn their noses up at the mention of a pedicure. All they think about is nail polish and foot massages. However‚ pedicures come in many different forms. The Babyfoot peel is a pedicure that any guy (or gal) shouldn’t hesitate to try. The Reality of Feet Think about the wear and tear your feet go through from the time you start to walk. You use your feet for standing‚ walking‚ running‚ balancing‚ and dozens of other things. From the time you begin to walk‚ your feet start to develop

November 5‚ 2014 Bioinformatics Leigh Ann Santana DNA Extraction Lab DNA extraction is an important process because the DNA first needs to be purified away from proteins and other cellular contaminants. Cell are needed‚ because that is where the DNA is located. Inside almost every cell in our bodies is a nucleus‚ and inside each nucleus is about two meters of DNA. The following steps are needed to purify DNA from a cheek swab. Collect cheek cells‚ Burst cells open to release DNA‚ separate DNA

cheese. Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)‚ a bacteria that can be found in the production of cheese‚ its stress gene was investigated in the experiment by using various biochemical and genetic techniques to identify and extract. The characterisation of the strain illustrates how identification of strains differ using different methods‚ such as gram stain and 16s rRNA screening. After the characterisation‚ the stress gene isolation assist the further understanding of the gene on LAB be giving different stress

Chemistry Lab Report Water Hydration Introduction: A hydrated crystal or hydrated occurs when water becomes tightly attracted to a metal salt base on it’s polarity. The water molecules maintain integrity as molecules‚ however they are considered to be part of the formula of the hydrate. When the hydrate metal salt crystal is heated‚ the attractions to the water are broken by the heat energy and the water escape from the crystal. After heating the salt crystal is called as anhydrous‚ which

The Molar Mass of a Volatile Liquid Adam Kozdrowicz Adam Li 11/05/12 Mr. McCready Purpose: The purpose of this procedure is to determine the molar mass of an unknown liquid‚ evaporate a sample of a liquid substance‚ and measure certain physical properties of the substance as it condenses. Procedure: 1. Obtain safety goggles. 2. Trim a piece of aluminum foil so that it covers the top of a small 13 x 100 mm test tube. Secure the foil with electrical tape. Make sure
