Friction Page 1 Lab: Friction William Morris Leo Hayes High School Friction Page 2 Purpose: To investigate the coefficient of friction for a given surface and the effects that factors such as weight‚ surface area and changes to the surface have on the coefficient of friction. Hypothesis: The smaller the amount of normal force (weight)‚ the less friction created and the least surface area and the greaser the surface the less friction is created. With

Ashley Robins 9/13/11 Honors Chemistry Period 4 Density Lab Purpose: 1. To determine the density of a solid using different laboratory techniques for measuring volume. 2. To use the intensive property of density to identify an unknown substance. Procedure: 1. Obtain a bag marked with a number containing a cube and a cylinder from the teacher. Record the number on the bag in the data table. Density of a cube: Using a balance‚ record the mass of the cube to the nearest tenth of a gram

Problem What effect does the different concentration of hydrochloric acid have to the rate of diffusion of agar that is dissolved with sodium carbonate and phenolphthalein? Introduction Diffusion is a process where the molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion and is the net movement of like molecules down their concentration gradient‚ which is the energy inherent in their constant molecular motion makes them collide and careen outward from the region of higher

Flame lab test Chemistry Introduction The lab test performed was to determine characteristic colors that were produced by specific metallic ions that are shown in a flame. This happens when an electron gains energy; the electron moves from an energy level that’s farthest away and to an empty orbital close to the nucleus with higher levels‚ so one of the electrons gives off energy. A flame test is a visual test where the energy is in the form of a color change and the change can

Corporate Strategy Corporate strategies involve seeing a company as a system of interconnected parts. Just as the muscles of the heart depend on brain functions in a human body‚ each department in a company depends on the others to stay healthy and achieve desired outcomes. The additional core strategies that a company uses should support the corporate strategy and use cross-functional interactions. Customer-driven Strategies Operational strategies should include customer-driven approaches to

and purchasers. In modern times‚ pricing methods and strategies have taken a number of forms. This paper is aim to explain the different types of Pricing strategies‚ more specifically the market-penetration pricing strategy. Pricing products‚ new products or existing products require the use of different strategies. For example‚ when pricing a new product‚ businesses can use either market-penetration pricing or a price-skimming strategy (Armstrong and Kotler‚ 2005) (Kotler‚ Brown‚ Adam‚ Burton

Chromatography Lab Questions Pre-Lab Questions 1. A pencil is used rather than a pen to mark the “starting line” in step two because a pen or marker while be used to place a small dot of ink in the center of the X that is made with a pencil. 2. Capillary action is filling of pores in a solid with a liquid. Capillary action is caused by spotting or absorption and is allowed to seep or flow through. 3. The type of pen that will probably give better separation in this paper chromatography
