Freezing and Melting of Water. 10/24 Richard Landolfi Due Date:11/1 Purpose the purpose of this lab is to determine the freezing and melting temperature of water. Freezing temperature‚ the temperature at which a substance turns from a liquid to a solid‚ and melting temperature‚ the temperature at which a substance turns from a solid to a liquid. Hypothesis If the water is at a low temperature then it will freeze

Acid Rain Acid rain occurs when Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) is released into the atmosphere by electricity generation‚ motor vehicles‚ factories and by wildfires and volcanoes. Once released‚ the sulphur dioxide reacts with water to produce sulphuric acid. This has a pH of approximately 2-3 pH. This has a dramatic effect on water dwelling wildlife. Most water dwelling creatures can’t withstand water more acidic than pH 5. This causes the mass loss of life of animals such as trout‚ perch‚ frogs and mayflies

Tejinder Ranu Due Date: November 21‚ 2007 Professor: Jonathan Baker After reading the article called “End of the melting Pot: The new wave of immigrants presents new challenges” by Ashley Pettus‚ I feel I have mixed reactions as to what the author is trying to convey by saying whether if it really is the end of the melting pot. United States is a country of Immigrants‚ where all cultures come and meet. Immigration is the act of relocating to another country or region‚ whether temporarily or

Francisco Tejada Danielle Rhodes English 1102 2/10/14 The Melting Pot When people think of the United States‚ they think of a way of life that can be different or not so different to their way of life. The United States is said to be the melting pot of the world. A melting pot is a place where different ingredients are mixed to create one thing. The world thinks of the United States as a melting pot of cultures‚ religon‚ music‚ and way of life. Even though people in the United States are

America is a Melting Pot America has become a melting pot of ethnic people. If you live in or near a city you can see the many ethnic cultures that influence our lives. America began with waves of immigrants‚ bringing their own cultures and traditions to a new country so they can express them. Nowhere else on this planet can you find such a diverse population. It ’s this mixture that makes America what it is but it also makes up a lot of the problems we face. For centuries the United States

The problem of the ice melting The melting of polar ice is primarily caused by the increasing amount of gas emissions‚ mainly CO2 rising into the atmosphere (global warming) Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth ’s atmosphere and oceans. Since the early 20th century‚ Earth ’s mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C. Scientists are more than 90% sure that it is caused by rising amount of concentrations of greenhouse gases‚ which are produced by human activities

8. a) The melting of the ice sheet in greenland may bring opportunities for people and communities rather than a negative threat. One advantage of of the melting ice sheet may be that it brings in a better income for people. Melting ice sheets means that more land is being uncovered exposing expensive rocks and riches such as zinc and lead. The reveal of land and rock means that people and communities are able to mine this will give people a better income and lifestyle. Mining can be done in all

the concentration of the acid solution changes the rate of the reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid and magnesium metal. • As the metal reacts with the acid‚ hydrogen gas is produced and the metal dissolves. To get an estimate of the rate of reaction‚ the time taken for a small piece of magnesium ribbon to dissolve (disappear) can be measured. This is a “clock reaction” and the reaction rate is proportional to 1/time taken SAFETY Dilute hydrochloric acid is harmful. Wear safety spectacles
