Kevin Barr ENG121 Andrea Bear August 28‚ 2012 AQUARIUM DIFFERENCES 2 Freshwater vs. Saltwater Comparison There are many differences when it comes to freshwater versus saltwater aquariums. We ’ll try and shed some light on some of the differences when it comes to tank types‚ aquarium

Sometimes you will have a high level of salt or not enough chlorine. In order to maintain a safe swimming pool you need to be sure that everything is working as it should be. If you find that you are frequently running into problems one easy solution could be to monitor it more closely. If you

In the beginning salt water and regular water got along. They all lived in the same ocean and each droplet would live in harmony. They shared the undersea environment with all the fish and sea plants. Some plants and animals needed salt water more than fresh water and some needed fresh water more than salt water. This is where the problem all started. The fresh water began to become jealous because the salt water was mocking the fresh water about them being the best type of water. It started out

The aim of this experiment was to investigate the effects of salt type and concentrations on the rate of heating and the boiling point. Then from this data make a conclusion which salt type and concentration is the most energy efficient at heating water to its boiling point. It was hypothesised that highest concentration of MgCl2 was going to be the most energy efficient at heating the solution to its boiling point. This is because MgCl2 has the lowest specific heat capacity thus will use the least

Melting Ice * Salt is routinely used to make icy roads and sidewalks safe in the winter. As soon as the salt comes in contact with the ice‚ the surface of the ice starts to melt. This only works‚ however‚ if the temperature outside is at or near freezing. If it is too cold outside‚ the ice itself becomes very dry and salt is not as effective in melting it. Salt Reduces Freezing Temperature of Water * Salt works by lowering the freezing temperature of water. Salt water needs to reach a colder

How can we increase the rate at which sugar cube be dissolve in water? Hypothesis: My hypothesis is that the hot water will dissolve the most sugar among most of our other methods. I picked the hot water because hot water molecules tend to move very fast. which increases the speed of how the molecules take away the sugar molecules which make sugar dissolve quicker inside of the hot water. Materials: 3 cups Water and hot water Spoon Sugar cubes Stop watch Mortar and pestle

FREEZING FOODS 1. Freezing storage space is valuable. Use it only for high quality meats‚ fruits and vegetables. Do not freeze and store excessively bulky products. 2. Place a variety of foods in your locker or home freezing unit. Avoid long storage of any items. Add new items as rapidly as storage space will permit. 3. If your locker plant or home-unit has a quick-freeze compartment‚ use it. The temperature of this compartment should be held at 0 or below. The time required for freezing should not

experiment explores how salt and sugar affect the melting rate of ice in water. Research Questions: * Does adding salt to ice and water slow down‚ speed up‚ or not change the rate the ice melts in the water? * Is salt the only substance to have this effect? What about sugar? Knowing how to speed up the melting rate of ice is very important information for anyone who needs to de-ice roads or driveways after a winter storm. While it seems simple‚ adding salt to ice water actually activates two
