Surface Water Pollution Freshwater makes up less than three percent of earth’s water‚ but is the source of virtually all drinking water.55 percent of that water comes from reservoirs‚ rivers‚ and lakes‚ These sources‚ called surface water‚ are vulnerable to pollution discharged out of pipes and precipitating out of the air but the primary source of their pollution today is runoff‚ pollutants washing off the land. These nonpoint or scattered sources are not easily traceable. fertilizers used

SuperHydrophobic Surface Fabrication The research plan must include the following: I. Statement of the Problem/s: This study aims to Specifically answer these questions: 1. What chemicals or substances would be effective to use? 2. Where else can we apply the monolayer‚ other than plastic‚ using the same procedures? 3. How long will this effect last? 4. What liquids can it repel besides water? II. Hypothesis: a. There is a significant difference in the results using varied

The pieces concentrate on the relationship between biological systems and changing architectural design approaches and methods through their history‚ method and development. In his article Bioconstructivisms‚ Detlef Mertins focuses on the relation of emerging approaches for architectural design in the last century to the explorations and new understandings in science. Addressing Otto’s design on complex and dynamic curvature structures and showing a beginning for a kind of new era; the writer

Biology GCSE Coursework: Osmosis in Potato Chips Skill Area P: Planning Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solution’s molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially

the whole concept in watching an ice cube melt in a beaker filled with vegetable oil. At first‚ I thought it was going to be interesting‚ right of the bat with bubbles and other reactions that catches interest. Once we started the procedure by inserting the ice cube into the beaker filled with vegetable oil‚ the dullness and boring state also began to flow. We sat there watching for a good five minutes before any visual reaction was taking place. The ice cube was actually melting in the oil; however

such as methane‚ however‚ have weak cohesion due only to Van der Waals forces that operate by induced polarity in non-polar molecules. Cohesion‚ along with adhesion (attraction between unlike molecules)‚ helps explain phenomena such as meniscus‚ surface tension and capillary action. Mercury in a glass flask is a good example of the effects of the ratio between cohesive and adhesive forces. Because of its high cohesion and low adhesion to the glass‚ mercury does not spread out to cover the bottom

A potato battery is a type of electrochemical cell. An electrochemical cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy. In the potato battery‚ there is a transfer of electrons between the zinc coating the galvanized nail that will be inserted into the potato and the copper wire that will be inserted another part of the potato. The potato conducts electricity‚ yet keeps the zinc ions and copper ions separate‚ so that the electrons in the copper wire are forced to move (generate current). It’s

POTATO BATTERY Abstract a. Purpose To lessen the consume of electric charge b. Procedure We insert copper and zinc electrodes in to the potato‚ close but not touching each other. We use Clip leads to connect our electrodes to the Multimeter to measure voltage between two electrodes or current passing through the multimeter. For this experiment we removed the shell of a broken AA battery for our Zinc electrode. (Make sure to test your multimeter by connecting its Positive and Negative

How Surface Area Affects the Motion of a Falling Object Introduction During this investigation‚ varying surface areas of objects will be explored in a manner observing the motion as they fall. Most predominantly‚ this motion encircles speed. Speed is calculated from the formula below‚ and hence is directly proportionate to time taken when the distance travelled remains a constant. Speed = Distance/Time Surface area is likely to affect the time taken for an object to complete a descent‚ and
