For our media critique assignment‚ my media group chose to review the television show series Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. This show is about an elite squad of New York Police Department detectives called the Special Victims Unit who investigate sexually based offenses and crimes. The episode I chose to watch was the third episode from season fifteen and it was titled American Tragedy. Within this episode itself‚ there were many stereotypes present‚ especially about black and white communities

The Effect of the Concentration of Sulphuric Acid on the Reaction Rate with Magnesium Sarah Cain SCH 4UB Mr. Lankin April 1‚ 2009 Introduction The nature of the problem is to design an investigation that examines a variable affecting the reaction rate. In this experiment‚ magnesium will be reacted with different concentrations of sulphuric acid. The reaction is shown by the following chemical equation: H2SO4 (l) + Mg (s) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2

effect of substrate concentration Hydrogen Peroxide H O (in %) on the rate of reaction of the enzyme catalase (in 1/mean time). Prediction: As the substrate concentration (hydrogen peroxide) in % increases the rate of reaction in 1/mean rate increases until the solution becomes saturated with the substrate hydrogen peroxide. When this saturation point is reached‚ then adding extra substrate will make no difference. The rate steadily increases when more substrate is added because more of the active

hypothesis proposed that if a small amount of salt was added to the reaction‚ then it cause the rate of the reaction to speed up‚ but if too much salt was added‚ then it will instead decrease the rate of the reaction. The data revealed that no additional amount of salt was the reaction that had the highest rate. As shown previously in the data table‚ the first trial’s average reaction rate of 4.5 mL/min was higher than the other two reaction rates where salt was added for trial 2 and trial3‚ 2.125 mL/min and

implemented appropriate policies‚ and have restored selfsustaining rapid growth with internal and external stability over the medium term. The business cycle of Pakistan’s economy has shown anomalous behaviour over the last many years. The growth rate peaked at 9% cent in 2005 before hitting the bottom in 2009. It improved a bit to 4.2% last year‚ which is not enough to impact the grave issues such as economic growth‚ unemployment and poverty. All the serious challenges Pakistan’s economy is undergoing

Observations of Chemical Changes Purpose/Hypothesis: To observe how acids react with bases and examine reactions of common household cleaners and the macroscopic changes these chemicals undergo. I expect for each solution to react differently when mixed with acids and bases. Procedure: I have a well-plate-96‚ a piece of white and black paper‚ and the chemicals from the Observation of Chemical Changes Experiment Bag. I used a different well for each combination of solutions. I placed two

Evaluation Like any experiment‚ there were a number of potential errors during the procedure of the experiment. Errors could have arisen as a result of the uncertainties associated with the instruments I used to take measurements‚ and also as a result of errors associated with the actual method. Of course‚ due to the limitations of the procedure‚ they could not be eliminated completely‚ so I will explain what I did to reduce them to an acceptable level and how I could have improved my method to

Factors Influencing Rate of Reaction Aim To investigate several effects believed to influence rate of reaction‚ concentration of a substance and temperature‚ and observe the effects. Hypothesis Concentration and temperature will both increase the rate of reaction in accordance with collision theory. Introduction The reaction rate or rate of reaction for a reactant or product in any given reaction can be defined as the speed with which a reaction occurs. For example‚ the oxidation of iron

Chemical reactions can happen slowly or fast. The speed of the reaction rate can be changed. Some of the factors that can affect the reaction rate are surface area‚ temperature‚ and concentration and pressure. Surface area is the exposed‚ outer layer of a solid. Increased surface area increases reaction rate because more particles on the surface of a solid come in contact with the particles of another substance. For example‚ if you place a donut stick into water‚ the donut will react slowly with
