Purpose: During our lab‚ Galileo’s Water Clock‚ we created our lab to describe the motion of a ball on a plane using the water clock as an alternative method for measuring time. Our main purpose in this lab was to determine if the displacement of the ball is determined by the time or the time squared. Procedure: Once the water clock was set up‚ a ball was let go from the ramp at various distances for three trials each. Once the ball was let go‚ the water clamp was opened and then immediately

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

The Effects Sodium Chloride has on pond water Introduction Ponds are depressions in the ground that fill with water from either run offs or melting snow or rain fall from many different weather changes. There are two types of ponds permanent and temporary. Ponds tend to be much smaller in size and are usually only six to ten feet in depth. This differs from a lake because the size of a lake is much larger and is much deeper. The temperature of a pond is usually the same from top to bottom and

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

Alisha Prakash Biol 111-513 The Properties of Water; Osmosis and Diffusion Hypothesis: When animal and plant cells are placed in a solution‚ the movement of water is effected by the solute concentration of the solution. If animal and plant cells are placed in a more concentrated solution‚ the solution becomes hypertonic to the cells‚ causing water to exit the cells. This changes the appearance of the cells‚ causing the cells to look darker (more concentrated) and shriveled up. Null Hypothesis:

This lab has introduced the use of daphnia‚ pill bugs‚ amoeba and Uglena. We the AP Biology students were first introduced to the test subjects to test his or her capability of handling living organisms for upcoming science experiments. The AP Biology students were asked to create original experiments for all test subjects testing reactions to gravity‚ light intensity and reaction to food. Daphnia‚ or Daphnia magna‚ are microscopic organisms in which the students created an original lab to test

11.1 Washing with cold distilled water Washing process is not only remove soluble protein‚ fat‚ and pro-oxidant‚ but may also remove antioxidant. Therefore the oxidative stability of muscle ultimately depends upon the antioxidant/prooxidant balance that remains after the muscle is washed. It suggests that washing may promote oxidation in mince since it effectively removes antioxidants from the fish. In addition‚ the neutral lipids are more easily removed than polar lipids‚ phospholipids and free
