Acid Rain Within this past century‚ acidity of the air and acid rain have become recognized as one of the leading threats to our planet’s environment. No longer limited by geographic boundaries‚ acid causing emissions are causing problems all over the world. Some laws have been passed which limit the amount of pollutants that are released into the air‚ but tougher legislation must be implemented before this problem can be overcome. Acid rain is produced‚ when automobiles‚ smelters‚ power

Nitric Oxide is a gas that helps your body with the circulation of the blood. It also regulates other functions of the body. Nitric Oxide can also help control blood pressure. It is also especially popular with men in that nitric oxide helps with some cases of erectile dysfunction. Nitric Oxide supplements initially became popular with the bodybuilding community. The improved blood flow helps with the "pump" that bodybuilders are always looking for. Making the blood vessels larger allows for better

Victoria MacDonald SCH3U Zegil Due May 5th‚ 2017 Magnesium Oxide Lab Purpose: To determine the composition by mass of magnesium oxide‚ the percentage composition‚ and the percentage yield. Hypothesis: The law of definite proportions states that a chemical compound always contains the same amount of proportions of elements by mass. Based on the law of definite proportions‚ the percentage composition of magnesium oxide should be 60.3% magnesium and 39.7% oxygen. Prediction: Based on the law of

Eric McKenzie Geophysical Science Honors February 14th‚ 2014 ACID RAIN 1. Acid rain is rainfall created by pollution in the atmosphere. When the rainfall occurs‚ it almost always causes harm to the environment. 2. Acid rain is caused by the release of certain compounds into the air‚ including sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These compounds mix and react with chemicals such as oxygen and water and form acid rain. 3. Acid rain can harm the environment by acidifying lakes and streams‚ which greatly

Determine the Activation Energy of the Reaction between Br— and BrO3— in Acid Solution S.6 ( ) Name: [ ] ( ) Time allowed: 55 minutes Introduction: The reaction can be represented by 5Br—(aq) + BrO3—(aq) + 6H+(aq) → 3Br2(aq) + 3H2O(l) The progress of the reaction may be followed by adding a fixed amount of phenol together with some methyl red indicator. The bromine produced during the reaction reacts very rapidly with phenol. Once

Another objective was determining the formula of the compound that results when Magnesium and Oxygen react. Theory: The purpose of this lab was to confirm the chemical formula of magnesium oxide by comparing the masses of pure magnesium solid prior to any reaction and magnesium oxide solid after a reaction between all of the magnesium and oxygen from the air when heated from a Bunsen burner in a crucible. Using molar masses of both magnesium and oxygen‚ an expected percent composition‚ by mass

a leader‚ someone who takes every thought‚ concern‚ hope‚ and anguish of those beneath him and acts appropriately. A leader means to be someone who lives not for them self but for others and whole heartedly enjoys every single moment of it. To lead is like riding towards the beating war drums of an approaching army. All will hear it: some will flee like cowards after every thump‚ some will pretend like the beats were never uttered‚ but others will answer the call valiantly with a quickness in
