Lab Report: Halogen Reactions Purpose: This experiment will allow for exploration into some of the properties of Group 17 elements (halogens) and their compounds. More specifically‚ the solubility properties of these halogens will be used to predict their reactions. The relative electronegativities of the halogens will be determined. Halides‚such as Cl-‚ Br-‚ and I- will be used to make these determinations. Because this lab is qualitative rather than quantitative‚ there are no calculation

LAB Report #3 Introduction: In this lab we have focus on Isolation of bacteria from environment. Microorganisms are found throughout the environment: in the air and water; on the surface of any object such as clothes‚ walls‚ furniture; in soil and dust; and on and in our own bodies (skin and mucous membranes). In order to demonstrate the ubiquity and diversity of microbes in the environment‚ samples from immediate areas of the environment and/or from your body will be obtained and cultured

“The Evolution of Airplanes” Introduction This year is the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin (1809-1882)‚ the father of evolution. Darwin’s evolution theory proposes that all species of organisms‚ including human beings‚ evolved from common ancestors. There are five main characteristics in his evolution theory. First‚ there are variations among each population. Second‚ organisms compete for limited resources to exist. Third‚ traits of offspring are inherited from their parents. Forth‚ organisms

various places. This lab tested how soil would absorb water based on different places. Distance from a group of trees‚ distance from a swamp‚ and different types of soil were tested. From the results collected‚ you can not prove‚ but you can infer that the ability to absorb increases as you go farther away from a swamp‚ and a group of trees. The ability to absorb also increases based on how much silt is in soil. Introduction In the first article‚ which was a research paper called “Surface runoff

impossible idea has become a reality‚ thanks to the invention of the airplane. This was a remarkable achievement in the field of science and technology that allowed our world to intermix culturally and improve our efficiency. With these benefits‚ however‚ comes drawbacks such as the numerous hazards of riding an airplane. One major benefit that the invention of the airplane resulted in is improved efficiency. The creation of airplanes has given people the ability to judge the amount of time it takes

Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

Microbiology Laboratory Report Identification of Unknown Bacteria 03/10/05- 04/01/05 Authors: Richard Hendricks‚ Jessica Prebish; NMU Abstract: Broth culture 16 was randomly selected by our group and subjected to qualitative tests for taxonomic identification. The culture did appear homogenous throughout the testing period and is currently retained by Northern Michigan University’s department of Microbiology. We suggest that culture 16 is an example of Escherichia coli. Background: Techniques

Lab Report The Effect of Resting on Clothespin Squeezing. Hypothesis: If you rest then the clothespin squeezing rate will increase. Materials:- Clothespin Clock Sneakers Procedure: Separate class into two groups (exercisers and resters). Exercisers will do jumping jacks for a minute. Exercisers and registers will squeeze clothespin for a minute Repeat steps two and three. Total of three trails. Precaution: Shoes must be tied. Space between exercisers. Healthy exercisers
