follow the following rule; hydro- (stem) - ic acid. If the ending. Just like the fluoride ion‚ which ince the rule is applied becomes hydrofluoric acid. If the naming is “-ite” then the name follows this rule: (stem) - ous acid‚ for example NO₂ or nitrite ion. Once the rule is applied it becomes nitrous acid. If the ion ends in “-ate” then it follows the following rule: (stem) –ic acid. Like the sulfate ion‚ which once applied to the rule becomes sulfuric acid. Other common examples are: hydrochloric

UNKNOWN LAB REPORT UNKNOWN NUMBER 54 Ron Williams 7-28-05 Bio 205 Prof. Curlee Fall 2005 Purpose There are many reasons for knowing the identity of microorganisms. The reasons range from the knowing the causative agent of a disease in a patient‚ so as to know how it can be treated‚ to knowing the correct microorganism to be used for making certain foods or antibiotics. This study was done by applying all of the methods that have been learned so far in the microbiology laboratory

Previously‚ Yeoh‚ & Wong (1993) reported the nutritional values of A. gangetica. Ogle et al.‚ 2001 reported the folate composition of A. gangetica. However‚ not much information on the utility of this leafy vegetable has been reported. To the best of our knowledge‚ there is no report on the optimization of polyphenols and their radical scavenging activities from the edible leaves of A. gangetica. Therefore‚ the main aim of this study is to optimize extraction conditions such as EtOH concentration

A fish has long been seen as the perfect “starter pet”. Parents who are skeptical of their children’s ability to care for a larger animal will often present their offspring with a goldfish before introducing a dog or a cat to the household. While it is true that goldfish do not require quite as much attention as their four-legged counterparts‚ marine pets are not as easy to raise as everybody seems to think. If a fish is to thrive and survive in your care‚ you must make sure the water in your aquarium

Acidification When ammonia reaches the soil surface‚ it usually reacts with water in the soil and is converted into its ionic form‚ ammonium (NH4+) and absorbes to the soil. The ammonium in the soil eventually disassociates or is nitrified into nitrite (NO2-) or nitrate (NO3-) by nitrifying bacteria‚ releasing H+ ions into the soil (3‚ 4). If not taken up by biomass and converted to methane‚ the surplus H+ ions eventually lead to the formation of an acidic soil environment. The nitrogen left over

Activated Sludge Process The activated sludge process is a wastewater treatment method in which the carbonaceous organic matter of wastewater provides an energy source for the production of new cells for a mixed population of microorganisms in an aquatic aerobic environment. The microbes convert carbon into cell tissue and oxidized end products that include carbon dioxide and water. Activated sludge plant involves wastewater aeration in the presence of a microbial suspension‚ solid-liquid separation

INTRODUCTION Meat will be an important source for high protein and Vitamin B12 since ancient times. As times goes by‚ people realized how important meat is crucial for giving energy‚ muscle building purposes and more‚ the need towards meat product has been increased and the way to preserved this food has been a concerning matter all along as it is a high perishable food due to its high water activity level. Therefore‚ various ways to preserve meat products have been introduced and these meat products
