and Acetone Soluble Inks through Chromatography Abstract: Chromatography is a term used to define a set of laboratory techniques for the separation of mixtures. Through Chromatography we analyzed complex mixtures. In our recent lab we analyzed complex mixtures. The purpose of this lab was to find whether the water soluble or acetone soluble liquid traveled farther. In our recent lab we measured the distance traveled by the different colored water and acetone soluble inks. W put three dots of

Germination of Mustard Seeds using Fertilisers 1. Abstract This study was done to look at the effects of fertilisers and identify which fertiliser produced the fastest results. Four types of fertilisers were used over a four-week period and the findings were that inorganic fertilisers enhanced seed germination rates. 2. Introduction Fertilisers are widely used in agricultural production because they contain essential compounds such as phosphorus‚ nitrogen and potassium that have been depleted
