Michelangelo’s Sogno is a black chalk drawing on unprepared‚ cream-colored paper. Slightly larger than 8 x 12 inches‚ the drawing requires close-hand examination. At the center of the Sogno‚ an idealized male nude perches precariously on an open box filled with masks. His upper torso twists to his left as he leans on a sphere for support. He turns his head in the opposite direction‚ looking upward and over his right shoulder to watch a winged creature descent from above. Considerably smaller

Thermochemistry Laboratory Report Abstract The purposes of these three experiments are to determine the heat capacity of a calorimeter and with that data‚ confirm Hess’s Law and observe enthalpy changes within reactions. By measuring the change in temperature that occurs with the interaction of two different reactants‚ we were able to determine both the calorimeter constant and the change in enthalpy of a given reaction. The results were rather mixed‚ as some numbers more closely resembled the

In this local experiment‚ the goal was to use a polyacrylonitrile (PAN‚ (C3H3N)n) in addition to a chalcogel. This chalcogel is efficient at adsorbing I2 gas. Although just the chalcogel itself isn’t mechanically stable especially if it is to be used in the field for actual radioactive iodine capture. By creating a hybrid substance with the PAN and the chalcogel in a mixture‚ the theory is that they can create a mechanically stable efficient iodine capture method. This experiment did not study the

Synopsis: The main aim of the experiment is to find out the amount of calcium carbonate in toothpaste through back titration since calcium carbonate does not dissolve in water. A roughly weighed amount of calcium carbonate is mixed with hydrochloric acid and then titrated against sodium hydroxide. When the indicator turns from pink to orange‚ the volume of sodium hydroxide used is taken down. After doing some calculations‚ the average percentage of calcium carbonate in toothpaste is 19.2%. This average
