Metabolic rate refers to the “amount of oxygen consumed by the body cells” (Farlex‚ n.d.). it can be affected by numerous factors‚ some of which being the mass of the animal‚ its physical activity and temperature. Invertebrates are able to live in highly variable conditions due to their metabolism having evolved over time. Homeotherms are animals that are able to maintain a specific body temperature without relying on the temperature from its surroundings. Poikilotherms on the other hand do the exact

Endothermic Reactions of Cold Packs An instant cold pack is a device that is made up of two bags; one containing water‚ and an inside bag containing ammonium nitrate. Have you ever wondered how people use hot packs to warm up their hands in the winter or use cold packs on a real terrible injury? How can this package produce heat or cold by only shaking or crushing those packs? Ammonium nitrate is a chemical compound that is a white crystalline solid used as fertilizer and as a part of explosives

Chemical Reaction of copper compounds Introduction: In this experiment‚ the objective was to conduct a series of chemical reactions that contain copper or copper compounds. That is to say that the products of each chemical reaction were used in the next reaction. The process starts with a solid copper wire dissolved in nitric acid and the end product is copper powder. The product which was used from the previous reaction is the limiting. In the initial step‚ the solid copper is the limiting reactant

Chemical Reaction: Cold Packs CHM110 Chemical Reaction: Cold Packs Introduction Chemical reactions happen every day in a variety of ways. We will explore the science behind cold packs and the chemical reactions that happen at the molecular level. Furthermore‚ we will examine and explain what chemical bonds are formed‚ broken‚ or both. The product is a simple construct of two bags: one containing water (solvent) and the other a chemical compound called ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). In order to activate

Purpose Determine which kinds of reactions involve electron transfer as the driving force. Background Redox (reduction-oxidation) reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed. So‚ when a metal and a nonmetal react‚ there is an ionic bond formed‚ which means one of them loses electrons while the other gains them. Since this reaction involves the exchange of electrons it is termed as a redox reaction. The oxidation states in a metal- nonmetal are simple

Experiment 5: Wittig Reaction Purpose The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize trans-9-(2-phenylethenyl) anthracene using a wittig reagent formed by reacting phosphonium chloride with base. Experimental In a reaction tube‚ (0.200g) benzyltriphenyl phosphonium chloride‚ (0.115g) anthraaldehyde‚ and (.6ml) dichloromethane (DCM) is mixed together with a stir bar. We stirred the mixture rapidly and added (0.26ml) of a 50% NaOH solution dropwise. The mixture was stirred for 20-30

Class X Question 1: Chapter 1 – Chemical Reactions and Equations Science Why should a magnesium ribbon be cleaned before burning in air? Answer Magnesium is very reactive metal. When stored it reacts with oxygen to form a layer magnesium oxide on its surface. This layer of magnesium oxide is quite stable and prevents further reaction of magnesium with oxygen. The magnesium ribbon is cleaned by sand paper to remove this layer so that the underlying metal can be exposed into air. Question
