1. Chemistry Rate of Reaction
Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to learn and use the techniques of titration which would then determine the amount of acid in an unknown. Introduction: One of the most common reactions in chemistry is the reaction of an acid with a base. This reaction is called neutralization. In ...
A cid rain is formed when certain gases dissolve in rainwater to form acids. Acid rain by definition in the Chemistry book states: "Rainwater that has become excessively acidic because of absorption of pollutant oxides, notably SO3, produced by human activities"(1). There are airborne pol...
Under Water Sea life is one of the most beautiful and natural creations our Earth has to offer. Our oceans are the source of connection to all countries in this world. What we don't know about our oceans is that our beautiful sea life is being reduced and extinct by the human population. All the pol...
"What is Acid Rain?" You hear about it all the time in the news and it is very important to the earth's ecosystem. In simple terms, acid rain is rain that is more acidic than normal. All objects in nature have a certain level of acidity but acid rain has too much acid in it. Acid rain is a compli...
Elizabeth Kolbert's "The Darkening Sea" was first published in The New Yorker but later appeared in the book, The Global Warming Reader, which brings light to the problem of pollution and its effect on the oceans. The book was published in 2012, and contains work from over 10 different climate auth...
A chemistry investigation to look at the rates of reaction between marble chips and hydrochloric acid. Task My task is to measure the rate of reaction between marble chips (CaCO3) and Hydrochloric acid (2Hcl). Diagram Plan The equipment I will be usi...
Enzyme Kinetics Abstract This experiment was performed to determine the factors that influence enzyme reaction rates. Amylase enzyme activity was measured through its absorption rate in spectrophotometer, using light with a wavelength of 560 nm. We compared the absorbance rates by varyin...
Review the effect of acid rain on the local distributions of fish and aquatic invertebrates. What are the biological reasons for the disappearance of these animals as pH falls? Humans produce about 160% of the natural emissions of sulphur. This is compared with about 5-10% in the case of carbon...
