presentation entitled "The Environmental Impacts of Chemical Deicers and Road Salt". I was required to attend this presentation for my Environmental Issues class as well. The presentation was approximately 25 minutes long and included a powerpoint presentation. In the presentation itself‚ it stated the impacts of road salts and deicers‚ the state uses on the roadways during the winter months. The most commonly used road salt is sodium chloride‚ which is also the most inexpensive and readily available

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

in grams) of potato cores placed in them overnight (approximately 10 hours)? 2. Hypothesis Alternative hypothesis: As the concentration of sodium chloride in the solution increases‚ the mass of the potato cores will decrease. If the solution they are in has a lower water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be net movement of water out of the potato cores. If the solution has a higher water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be net movement of water into the potato pieces. Therefore

“Morton Salt“ “No one knows Salt like we do”. Morton Salt generates a never-ending supply of new products in covering all possibilities where salt can be used and is not focusing on only one type of salt e.g. Culinary Salt. During over 160 year’s history‚ Morton Salt never stopped developing new salt products and finding new niche markets. Salt is not seen as a mundane product that is only used to salt e.g. food but even more as science. Morton Salt is presenting on his website how various salt can

the osmosis reaction in a potato with salt and water. In cooking cooks will soak their cut potato’s in water if they will not use them immediately. This allows the potato’s to be used later without turning color. The experiment shows the flow of water through the membranes of the potato with salt over a period of four hours. II.

Potato Batteries: Veggie power! Data and Analysis Background The battery was invented around 1800 by Alessandro Volta in Italy. It has become an indispensable part of modern life. Why are batteries so useful? Because they convert chemical energy into electrical energy. You can use this electrical energy to light a flashlight‚ to start a car‚ or to listen to your favorite music. We made a simple battery out of a potato by placing in it a zinc strip and a copper strip. At the zinc strip‚ the
