Summary Researchers typically use a batch reactor to study reaction kinetics under ideal conditions. This experiment was carried out in other to study effect of temperature on reaction rate constant and also to study the effect of the reaction rate constant in a batch stirred tank reactor its important in chemical industry because it is used to determine the effect of temperature on reaction rate constant; it is also used in chemical and process industry for solids dissolution‚ product mixing‚ chemical

The handling of evidence at the scene is critical to maintaining the integrity of the evidence (Bunting‚ 2012‚ p. 90). Proper tools for acquiring the evidence at the scene are essential. These tools can be categorized as discipline-specific hardware and software‚ and general tools and supplies. Bunting (2012)‚ Gogolin (2013)‚ Kral (2011) and Nelson‚ Phillips and Steuart (2010) provide lists of item that a digital forensics investigator should have at the scene.

ntroduction In this experiment we created standards to be able to compare a mystery substance off of. We were tasked to investigate a murder that took place by analyzing a man’s last meal to find out where he had ate based on the content of his stomach. Before we could test the mystery substance we had to establish standards‚ so we could compare off of them. Based on the results of this lab‚ we believed that the victim last ate at Buffalo Wild Wings (Veliz). Methods and Materials We started this

PROJECT Introduction Title: Investigate one factor that affects the resistance of a wire. Reworded: I am going to investigate if changing the length of a wire changes its resistance. I predict that the longer the wire‚ the more resistance it has. Planning and Preparation Independent Variable: The variable I changed was length (cm). Dependent Variable: The variable I measured was resistance (Ω). Fixed Variables: The variables I kept constant to make it a fair test; were‚ the type of wire (nichrome)

I have always seen paper clips as a useful material. I believe that paper clips are a part of my culture due to the 7 m high statue of paper clips situated in my home-country Norway. During World War II the statue symbolized Norwegian nationalism‚ and it was due to John Vaaler the man who invented paper clips that the statue is in Norway today. Paper clips are made from galvanized steel wire‚ meaning that the iron content is less than 100% because it also contains zinc. The galvanization method
