The objective: In this experiment‚ I decided to find out how temperature would affect endothermic reactions compared to exothermic reactions. An endothermic reaction absorbs energy in the form of heat. This reaction feels cold because it is taking heat away from its surroundings. It also releases gases. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy as heat. Since the energy is released‚ the exothermic reactions feel hot. Methods/Materials I did three experiments. I mixed lemon juice

The average temperature in Santiago is 14.4°C with January being the warmest at an average temperature of 21°C and June and July being the coolest months‚ both with an average temperature of 8°C. For what is considered to be fall and winter in the northern hemisphere‚ is spring and summer in the southern hemisphere‚ therefore that is when Santiago’s climate is at its peak. It can be noticed that from January to June and July‚ the temperature starts to change at a not so slow

I am choosing to study how the PSI (pounds per square inch) of a football is affected by the temperature. I chose to study this because I like football and I always pondered this question. I believe that this is a worthwhile question to study because these studies can help improve the game as the weather gets colder. As air cools‚ it expands‚ so when a football gets colder‚ the air inside it expands. This expansion causes the air pressure to decrease. The air pressure decreases because the molecules

Effect of temperature and humidity on the transpiration rateof the whole mushrooms P.V. Mahajan * ‚ F.A.R. Oliveira‚ I. Macedo Department of Process and Chemical Engineering‚ University College Cork‚ Ireland Abstract Water loss or transpiration is an important physiological process that affects the main quality characteristics of fresh mushrooms‚such as saleable weight‚ appearance and texture. A loss in weight of only 5% may cause fresh produce to lose freshness and appear wiltedand it is an

Investigation on Effects of Different pH on Enzyme Activity How does the different pH buffers affect activity of potato enzyme/extract? Introduction: Proteins are polymers that are made up of smaller units/monomers called amino acids. There are 20 different types of amino acids‚ thus make up many different combinations in types‚ numbers of amino acids as well as their orders – an explanantion for why there are so many proteins. Every protein‚ due to various reactions of amino acids to each

This occurs because these forests are exposed to cold and warm air‚ which makes them encounter all four seasons. Temperatures in the deciduous are estimated to be up to 50°. They also have precipitation of 30 to 60 inches a year. One of the traits these trees have is thick bark that protects them from cold or really hot weather. Deciduous forests can be found everywhere
