Lubricant A lubricant is a substance introduced to reduce friction between moving surfaces. It may also have the function of transporting foreign particles. The property of reducing friction is known as lubricity. Lubricant is a material that reduces the friction arising due to the sliding / gliding / rolling / moving of two different components in a machinery. Friction is an undesirable process that results in (i) wear and tear of the surfaces of the moving parts (ii) loss of enormous energy as

Temperature on The Viscosity of Glycerol Research Question: What is the effect of increasing the independent variable of the temperature of glycerol (30ºC‚ 40ºC‚ 50ºC‚ 60ºC and 70ºC) (+ 0.5ºC) using a hotplate and measured using a thermometer (+ 0.05º)‚ on the dependent variable of time (secs + 0.2) taken for 50mL (+ 0.05ml) of glycerol to flow through a 50cm3 burette (+ 0.05cm3) into a 250 mL beaker (+ 12.5 mL) measured by a digital stopwatch (+ 0.2secs)‚ therefore indicating the viscosity of glycerol

permeability of the cell membrane is disrupted causing cellular contents to leak out. When cells are cut‚ the cell membranes are mechanically ruptured. High temperature disrupts the structure of proteins and certain chemicals such as acetone and methanol dissolve the phospholipids‚ leading to damage of the membrane and therefore leads to increased permeability. Beetroot is the material used in this experiment to demonstrate the effects of high temperature and chemicals on the permeability of the

Explain how the chemical compounds carotene‚ retinol‚ and rhodopsin are each involved in vision. Vitamin A is responsible for good vision and eye health. It allows the surface of the eye to protect itself from bacteria and viruses. The rate in which your peripheral vision is lost will decrease if you take Vitamin A every day. If you have a deficiency from Vitamin A‚ your cornea to turn dry and cloud up the eye‚ which could even lead to blindness. Vitamin A can come in the form of retinol (active

CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION Natural rubber is produced by over 2000 plants species and its main constituent is poly (cis-I‚4-isoprene).a highly unsaturated hydrocarbon. Since 1914 there have been efforts to investigate microbial rubber degradation: However‚ only recently have the first proteins involved in this process have been identified and characterized and have the corresponding genes cloned. Analysis of the degradation product of natural rubber and synthetic rubbers isolated from various
