Introduction Acid rain refers to a phenomenon in which "[precipitation] from the atmosphere [contains] higher than normal amounts of nitric and sulfuric acids". The precipitation that results in acid rain comes from the pollution emitted by human activities‚ such as factories‚ electrical power plants and automobiles. Two main pollutants are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2)‚ which reacts with substances in the atmosphere‚ such as water and oxygen‚ to form acid rain. While rain water

Biology 101 Popcorn experiment Lab partners Robert Barham Michelle hall Diva Mancada Kelley Pritt 1 Introduction Popcorn‚ or popping corn‚ is a type of corn which explodes from a kernel and puffs up when heated. It is a popular snack food‚ especially in movie theaters. Popcorn can be salted or sweetened. Air popped popcorn is naturally high in fiber‚ low in calories and fat‚ contains no sodium and is sugar free. This can make it an attractive snack for people with caloric or

Hypothesis: The closer the light is the plant‚ and the higher the wattage of the light‚ the faster the rate of Photosynthesis. So‚ the 150 watt light bulb at 5centimeters will have the highest rate of photosynthesis.

A. Goal and Purpose: Session 1: In this lab‚ we will achieve a simple Friedel-Crafts alkylation of anthracene. The choice of anthracene as an aromatic substrate stems from two considerations. First‚ there is a question of regioselectivity. Second‚ anthracene and its derivatives are highly visible under UV light. Session 2: In this lab‚ we will complete a partial conversion of 9-acetylanthracene using m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA). We will also determine by NMR‚ the regiochemistry of the

the most pennies if we were to tape them to two stools 16 cm apart‚ dropping pennies into a cup tied around the noodle? Expiremental Variables - We will be able to identify the mass of a penny and how it can test the strength of a pasta noodle as a result of the downward pull of gravity on the penny. Test Variable: The type of noodle is what I’d be changing throughout the process Outcome Variable: I would be observing how many pennies each noodle could hold counting every single one that drops into

The objective of this experiment is to measure the rate of photosynthesis Hypothesis: The petri dish that is exposed to the most light and with the NaHCO3 solution will have the best results and the petri dish that is kept in the dark will have the poorest results. Material and Methods: 1. Get 4 deep petri dishes and label them 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4. Fill dish 1 about 2/3 full with distilled water. Fill the other 3 about 2/3 full with 0.2% NaHCO3 solution. Set these aside for

In the first column‚ 0° C‚ each well had low enzyme activity. In the second column‚ 25° C‚ the results displayed the enzyme actively low as well. In group 5‚ the enzyme was hydrolyzing the starch moderately‚ which is how the enzyme is supposed to react. In the third column‚ 55° C‚ each well displayed the enzyme hydrolyzing the starch at a low pace

The objective of this lab was to recreate the color profile of a given solution. In this case‚ the solution was Powerade. The final solution should match the absorbance values at the peak wavelengths (420nm and 628nm) in Powerade. This lab was done using deionized water‚ FD&C Blue #1‚ FD&C Yellow #5‚ FD&C Red #40‚ and a spectrometer. To obtain the correct color profile‚ FD&C Blue #1 and FD&C Yellow #5 were utilized in the sample solutions. The experiment was conducted over two days; the first day

9/16/14 Physics 01L Density Abstract This experiment was conducted in order to determine the density of the Aluminum metal samples provided in the lab. Specific tools such as the vernier caliper and balance scale were used to measure and record the values found. Given that density is a measurement of mass over volume‚ both of these quantities would have to be determined experimentally‚ prior to proceeding with the calculation of the density‚ for each of the

human evolution. Although no humans are being observed in this lab the concept of evolution is going to be looked up. The speciation is to see if by different modifications in the environment create a new species of finches. If no new species develop or the finches do not evolve to the changes in their surroundings will natural selection happen and will we no longer have finches on this island?
