Job Safety Analysis or Job Hazard Analysis All employers have duty of care to individuals‚ staff‚ contractors or third parties in the workplace. It is also a legal requirement that organizations should document any health and safety risks that have been identified in the workplace. Equally‚ it is necessary to record the actions taken to reduce those risks What is a Job Safety Analysis or Job Hazard Analysis? One way to increase the knowledge of hazards in the workplace is to conduct

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS: This experiment circles around with the Newton’s second condition of equilibrium in rotational motion. It describes by net torque acting on a body which is zero. The ability of the body to rotate in a certain direction is varied according on how much torque is applied. To prove that‚ a beam that is subjected to two forces is balanced by adjusting the perpendicular distances. When applied force is weight‚ modification in masses added is also done. Once equilibrium is achieved

EXPERIMENT 5 SEPARATION OF A MIXTURE INTO ITS COMPONENTS BY FRACTIONAL CRYSTALLIZATION Introduction: Fractional crystallization is one of the experimental techniques used to separate or purify mixture. Fractional crystallization makes use of the differences of solubility to separate the components of a mixture. Goals: Applying fractional crystallization to separate a mixture of salicylic acid and copper sulfate pentahydrate into its components. Calculate the percent of salicylic

Effect of enzyme concentration on rate of reaction Research question: is there a relationship between catalase concentration and the rate of reaction? Hypotheses: if the enzyme concentration is increased then the rate of reaction will increase. If the enzyme concentration is decreased then the rate of reaction will decrease. Controlled: temperature Independent: % catalyze concentration ( Dependent: rate of reaction (mm/s) Materials: Mortar and pestle Graduated cylinder Distilled

Lab Report Microbiology Introduction Bacteria can be found almost anywhere. For human life‚ some help us‚ some hurt us‚ and others are neutral. It is now known that good bacteria‚ or normal microflora‚ can reach 1014 microbial cells. This is far more than the 1013 cells that make up the human body (Tannock‚ 1995). The total number of bacteria on Earth is estimated to be around 4-6 x 1030 (Horner-Devine‚ 2004). It is important to know the extent of bacteria‚ how they live‚ and how they are

Osmosis Lab Conclusion The purpose of this lab is to determine whether salt affects the movement of water in the cell. Independent variable is the factor that affects the value of variables dependent to it. In osmosis lab‚ the independent variables are the potato and onions. The dependent variable is the variable whose value is measured to determine the extent of the effect of another variable to it‚ as in an experiment. In osmosis lab‚ the dependent variable is the length of the potato. The controlled

Enzymes Lab Report Inroduction In this lab we explore an enzymes activity and how it can be affected by changes to its environment. An enzyme is a protein and is a catalyst to chemical reactions. It helps accelerate reactions by lowering the activation energy‚ which is needed for reactions in cells to progress at a higher rate. Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding products from a given set of reactants. (Unit 7: Enzymes lab) Products

ADI Lab Report Every living thing is made up of cells. All cells have some part in common. Some multicellular cells are highly specialized and carry out some very important functions. One of the special cells are red blood cells‚ their functions‚ transporting oxygen from the lungs to the cells in the body. Red blood cells look like little discs. Red blood cells can change their shape‚ this ability allowing them to squeeze through capillaries without breaking. Our task is to Design and carry out an
