Chemistry Practical: Activity Series of Metals Introduction: The chemical activity of a metal is directly related to its practical use. In this investigation you will investigate the chemical activity of metals with oxygen‚ water‚ acid and alkali‚ to rank metals in order of their activity. Aim: To observe the reactivity of metals in order to determine the activity series of metals. Risk Assessment: In this investigation‚ hydrochloric acid solution is used which is toxic by all routes of

Complexometric Determination of Water Hardness Mike Monaghan CHM 152LL 01/27/2013 Abstract: What can be found from this experiment is as follows‚ Introduction/Background: This lab was about determining water hardness. Water hardness is the amount of metal ions in the water. The most common found ion in the water is calcium ions and typically with a charge of +2. Water hardness plays a big significance in our daily life because to many metal ions in our drinking water can have adverse

QUANTITATIVE ARTICLE REVIEW Context-Sensitive Positive Behavior Supports for Young Children with Traumatic Brain Injury: A Second Replication Study EDUC 518 February 7‚ 2014 SUMMARY Traumatic brain injury or TBI as it is sometimes called is the injury of the brain that is caused by a powerful force outside of the body. Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of death and disability in childhood (Kraus‚ 1995). As a result of TBI‚ many young children/students display negative behaviors

Understanding ion permeability is vital to knowing how it establishes a membrane potential‚ and how it eventually leads to the contraction of muscle cells. This was done using crayfish tail muscles. Lateral and medial tail muscles from the tail of a crayfish were excised. These muscles were then placed into solutions with different types of ion concentrations. Usage of different ion concentrations was necessary in practicing how to measure resting membrane potentials accurately. Measurements with

Determination of Sulfate by Gravimetry Jose Luis E. De Guzman University of Santo Tomas‚ Sampaloc‚ Manila The determination of the percentage of sulfate in a sample is done as an instrument of learning a quantitative method of analysis‚ i.e.‚ of the gravimetric analysis. This type of analysis‚ which makes use of the weight of the samples was used for the experiment and required the precipitation of our analyte‚ SO4-2‚ and its filtration as a BaSO4 precipitate so as for weighing it. The weight

Title: Experiment 17‚ Reaction kinetics – Determination of the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Objective: To determine the activation energy of the reaction between oxalic acid and potassium permanganate. Introduction: Chemical kinetics is the study of chemical reaction rates‚ how reaction rates are controlled and the pathway or mechanism by which a reaction proceeds from its reactants to its products. Reaction rates vary from the very fast‚ which

effect of heavy metals lead and cadmium (0.05 mM and 0.3 mM) on growth and antioxidant enzymes of seedlings of 2 mung bean genotypes (NM 19-19 and Azri mung-2006). Results revealed that germination percentage and seedling length decreased when compared with the control for both genotypes. However‚ seedling length and germination percentage was better in NM 19-19 as compared to Azri mung-2006. Elevated levels of protein were observed under metal stress in both genotypes. Heavy metals induced oxidative

Right to self-determination All of us have the right to self-determination. In a far view‚ right of self-determination simply means that all people have the right to freely determine their political status and pursue their economic‚ social and cultural development. This merely involves the freedom to acquire and dispose of property and wealth generally as the person choses. Right to self-determination is an unalienable right; the government can’t take the right away. The specific right applies

Determination of pKa James McDuffie ABSTRACT: In this lab‚ the pKa of unknown solution #4 was measured Introduction: This lab focused on the equilibrium constant‚ Ka. Ka is associated with chemical properties of acids. The equivalence point will be reached once the moles of OH- equal the moles of HA and once this point is reached‚ the PH changes very quickly. With the results‚ a titration curve should be produced. Experimental Section Materials and Methods: A buret with NaOH solution

How to Remove Heavy Metal Toxins with Oral Chelation Do you currently have heavy metal toxins damaging the inside of your body? The answer is unfortunately "yes" for over 99% of us! So what is a “heavy metal” and what do I need to know? If you’re thinking of Ozzy Osbourne‚ KISS‚ or Ted Nugent‚ you’re not alone. The truth is that most people do not fully understand the real dangers of heavy metal poisons and just how common they are in our modern world. Fortunately‚ you can take steps to understand
