using more and more household batteries. The average person owns about two button batteries‚ ten normal (A‚ AA‚ AAA‚ C‚ D‚ 9V‚ etc.) batteries‚ and throws out about eight household batteries per year. A battery is an electrochemical device with the ability to convert chemical energy to electrical energy to provide power to electronic devices. Batteries contain heavy metals such as mercury‚ lead‚ cadmium‚ and nickel‚ which can contaminate the environment when batteries are improperly disposed of. When

Study The researcher‚ as one of the consumers of the electricity‚ also experiences the power crisis. Due to different factors that results to sudden brownouts especially those in the province‚ the researcher came up with the study entitled “Potato Battery”. Two new sources are fruits and vegetables. These are organic and can easily be bought at farms and markets. One of these is the use of potato but not all fruits and vegetables are usable. Potato had been considered due to it’s high content of

Well eventually here in our country‚ many pests are everywhere like in drainages‚ manholes‚ old houses and streets. The researchers’ purposes for this project are to eliminate and control pests such as rats‚ cockroaches and mosquitoes. If these pests would grow and have a big amount of population‚ it can make everyone sick. The researchers’ pesticide is cheaper than the other commercial products and it

The STI College Cotabato uses a manual transaction system as of current. But the system is prone to errors such as duplication of forms‚ incorrect spelling name and inaccurate data of inquirers. In information system‚ computerization is concerned about interrelating different bit interdependent transactions. This can result in a system with well-integrated process that can perform much faster and more accurate than a manual system. The STI College Cotabato was established in 1993‚ and is located

Rust is an iron oxide‚ usually red oxide formed by the redox reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture. Several forms of rust are distinguishable both visually and by spectroscopy‚ and form under different circumstances.Rust consists of hydrated iron(III) oxides Fe2O3·nH2O and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH)‚ Fe(OH)3). Given sufficient time‚ oxygen‚ and water‚ any iron mass will eventually convert entirely to rust and disintegrate. Surface rust is flaky and friable‚

Background of the Study Fruits peels of Banana‚ Orange and other fruits are highly rich in potassium‚ ion‚ zinc etc .If these Peel are added in the soil these will become fertilizers. Fertilizers are any organic or inorganic material of natural or synthetic origin that is added to a soil to supply one or more plant nutrients essential to the growth of the plant. Good fertility is fundamental to successful plant growth and the application of fertilizers and manures is an essential graining act
