Observations of an Apple The assignment was to observe a fruit or vegetable for at least an hour. I thought it was crazy and pointless but not so ridiculous that I would not do it and earn a bad grade. Before I started‚ I read Samuel Scudder’s essay “Learning to See” where he talks about having to do a similar type of assignment but with a fish. He eventually became engrossed in the fish and so I became determined that I was going to try to find all I possibly could about my apple in the hour

In light reactions‚ the goal is to transfer solar kinetic energy to chemical potential energy. This is first done by the absorption of a photon of light. Plant pigments are molecules that selectively absorb light energy at wavelengths. A pigment molecule absorbs a photon of light one of pigments electrons jumps to an energy level further than the nucleus. The electron has more potential energy here. The electron now has raised from the ground state to an excited state. Pigments of photosynthesis

and different techniques are created. In chemical analysis‚ the amount of an object is determined using a process called titration. According to Petrucci et al.‚ titration is a reaction carried out by the carefully controlled addition of one solution to another. It has several types like acid-base titrations and redox titrations. This experiment focuses on the latter type‚ the redox titration. A redox titration is based on an oxidation-reduction reaction between analyte and titrant (Harris‚2009)

CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM I. Introduction In a chemical reaction‚ when reactants are mixed together in a reaction vessel‚ the whole of the reactants do not get converted into products. After some time‚ there will come a point when a fixed amount of reactants will exist in harmony with a fixed amount of products; neither amount will change anymore. This state is called chemical equilibrium (Birk‚ 1994; Jones‚ 1987; LeMay‚ 2002). There are three characteristics of a system in chemical equilibrium: a

Chemical Engineering Career Adam Homan Saint Paul College Chemical Engineering Career For my career path I have chosen to become a chemical engineer. A chemical engineer is considered in my opinion to be a universal engineer‚ exploring all facets of life. The responsibilities of a chemical engineer can vary but first start with a problem that leads to an idea and then a hypothesis. Following those first steps includes a lot of research involving many check points along the way to ensure

Observation Report. As everything knows to observe is not an easy job‚ many aspects are involved in this process and to be able to manage these aspects we must learn from the experiences. I have observed a class and I realized about many things that I will do in a near future. I always thought that teaching was easy. Throughout my life teachers have been teaching me many things but I have never wondered how they do that job. I have observed 5 aspects in a classroom‚ namely; activities‚ use of

Reaction Paper August 30‚ 2014; Saturday; 1:00pm until 3:00pm. Our group went to ZAEC Hospital which is located at the San Jose Road. Where we did our requirement to do a manual processing to produce a radiographic film that is a visible image. Before we accomplished our task‚ we started to pick or choose who will be the one who we should expose or examine and who will be the operator in the Operating Console. And also planned who will be the one would do the next

Micro-Reactions: Predicting the Products of Double Replacement Reactions Introduction – A double replacement reaction is a chemical reaction between two compounds where the positive ion of one compound is exchanged with the positive ion of another compound. If you have the reactants of two reaction solution that you can determine the products. All you need to do is pair the positive parts of the compounds with the other compounds negative part. Once you find the products you can determine their

Abstract “Reaction Time” is the interval of time between the application of a stimulus and the detection of a response and has been thought to differ based upon the effects of modality and warning signals. In the “Reaction Time” experiment a total of 24 students from the University of Cincinnati participated in an experiment consisting of two sensory modalities‚ audition and vision‚ which were combined with two levels of warning signal status. The two levels of warning signal status were signal

Child Observation Background The child that I chose to observe was a nine year old boy that I will refer to as Dan. Dan is a highly gifted child who‚ unfortunately‚ suffers from cerebral palsy‚ as well as panic attacks. His parents are divorced and he lives with his mother‚ who has remarried. His father who also has remarried‚ does have contact with him‚ though the relationship is somewhat strained. He comes from an upper middle class background‚ and has no brothers or sisters. I observed Dan
