Lab 2 – Water Quality and Contamination Experiment 1: Effects of Groundwater Contamination Table 1: Water Observations (Smell‚ Color‚ Etc.) Beaker Observations 1 The water is clear with no distinct smell. 2 The vegetable oil does not mix with the water. Oil on top‚ separated from the water. Oil has a slight yellow look to it. No odor. 3 Vinegar mixes with the water and retains clarity. Has a slight smell of vinegar to it. 4 Laundry detergent changes the water’s clarity to a blue-green color. It has

Determination of Water Hardness Using a Titrator Heather Crall Chemistry 1 SMT- 271044 10/17/2012 Abstract From seeing all of my results and conclusion I now see that I didn’t understand this lab very well and that its not easy when others try to help. Since I have hard water it tells me that my water flows over and through rocks and minerals‚ like limestone. Purpose The purpose of this lab is to become familiar with the concept of water hardness. We learn that hard water contains high

TITLE: Wad a Watershed Lab INTRODUCTION: Using models is very important in science. In this lab‚ you will design a model that will help you investigate the relationship between land surfaces and water on Earth. OBJECTIVE: To design a model that will help you visualize watershed characteristics. PROBLEM: How can we use the relationships between land surfaces and water to understand conservation of resources and pollution? HYPOTHESIS: In your own words‚ write a hypothesis about how the relationships

Cross-Contamination and its Role in Food Poisoning Outbreaks Cross-contamination is one of the most major causes of food poisoning (Food Standards Agency‚ 2014). It is defined as ‘the process by which a substance that is harmful or dirty spreads from one area to another’ (Cambridge Online Dictionary‚ 2014) .There are 3 different types of contamination in the food industry; microbial contamination‚ physical contamination and chemical contamination‚ with microbial contamination being a more frequent

Essay #2 Tina Taylor William Jennings Bryan argues against the gold standard. What arguments does he give against the gold standard and why does it oppress the common people? William Jennings Bryan was against the Gold Standard because it artificially lowered inflation. In today’s times the Federal Reserve can print as much money as it wants and also control how the money circulates in the economy by buying and selling bonds. With the gold standard there was an infinite amount of gold that

Purpose: During our lab‚ Galileo’s Water Clock‚ we created our lab to describe the motion of a ball on a plane using the water clock as an alternative method for measuring time. Our main purpose in this lab was to determine if the displacement of the ball is determined by the time or the time squared. Procedure: Once the water clock was set up‚ a ball was let go from the ramp at various distances for three trials each. Once the ball was let go‚ the water clamp was opened and then immediately
