    This lab report is over the effects of acid rain on plant germination and growth. Testing was done to see the acid rain had an effect on the radish seed germination and growth of the radish plant. Radish plants, also known as raphanus sativus, a cultigen plants. This means that the radishes have become what they are now, due to selective breeding over the course of thousands of years. “Grown worldwide for its fleshy, edible taproot, radish is thought to have originated in the eastern Mediterranean region.”…

    In the first week, 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask contained 20 grams of dissolved sucrose in 200 mL of room temperature water. 0.30 grams Pasteur’s salts and 0.20 grams of dried yeast were added into the mixture separately, as the Erlenmeyer flask gently moved in a swirled motion to mix the substances. Aluminum foil was lightly crimped over the opening of the Erlenmeyer flask, and fermented for two weeks. When time is up, 6 mL of the solution was placed into a vial. The fraction distillation was performed using a 250 mL round bottomed flask; 20 mL of solution was collected per three fractions.…

    Discussion The findings in this lab show that the melting point of Alum is 92.5 degrees Celsius. During the first trial a temperature of 91.0 degrees Celsius was recorded, but during the second trial a temperature of 93.0 degrees Celsius was found. Averaging the two temperatures gives a total around 92.0. The literature melting point of Alum is said to be 92.5 degrees Celsius and the data from similar studies, such as, Chemistry 103: Synthesis of Alum, together show that the results from the experiment were about 0.5 degrees Celsius off.…

    Benzene, rings are very prevalent in many products that are used on a daily biases by humans, and compounds that contain benzene are often referred to as being aromatic. Benzene has characteristics that differ from many compounds causing it to react differently when mixed with certain compounds. Although benzene has three double bonds, it does not react like a normal alkene in terms of addition reactions. For example, when bromine reacts with a simple carbon-carbon double bond it forms dibromo. Benzene does not do this unless it is in the presence of a strong catalyst, making it no longer an addition reaction, but an electrophilic substitution (Structure of Benzene, 2001).…

    This experiment had no questionable errors or results as the experiment was conducted correctly and precisely. To start the experiment, the mass of a clean and dry crucible was measured and simply recorded as 64.484 grams (Figure Aa). The mass of a sample of the solid metal manganese was then also recorded at 1.07 grams (Figure Ag). Next, together they were both recorded together to have a mass of 65.554 grams (Figure Ab). Within a container, 20mL of 3M of hydrochloric acid was introduced to the metal and a violent reaction took place.…

    In this lab, we carried out a variety of reactions using different chemicals and metals. A chemical reaction is when the chemical state of the substance you are testing rearranges its ionic and molecular structure. One of the reactions we experienced was single replacement, this consists of one ion switching places with another ion to form a new compound. Another reaction we saw was double replacement. In this reaction, two compounds ions are switched to form two new compounds.…

    The purpose of this lab is to see how the Greenhouse Effect works. To understand how this phenomenon works, we placed two bottles near a heat lamp - one with air and the other one filled with carbon dioxide. The bottle with the air started out at 24 ℃, while the one with carbon dioxide started out at 28 ℃. As soon as we placed the two bottles by the heat lamp, we noticed that the temperature of each bottle increased rapidly. However, the temperature increased more in the bottle with the carbon dioxide.…

    This whole process was very time restrictive because the plate needed to be wet during the whole process and thusly the process had to all be done in the close proximity of a dark room. The photographer would set their camera up and focus on the ground glass in the camera to make sure everything was to their liking, then they would make their plates using the collodion process, the photographer would then take the plate in a negative holder to the camera and expose the negative. After the negative was exposed the development process would be carried out and the photographer would then have a negative. This negative could be used to make multiple prints which was a great benefit to everyone who used this process. Frederick Scott Archer…

    Conclusion: The the precipitation reactions lab eight out of the fourteen occurring reactions were precipitates. A precipitate means that a solid substance was formed or a substance that is not aqueous was formed. The reactions that did not form a precipitate were DNR, which means that they did not react. At station one barium chloride and potassium nitrate did not react but barium chloride and silver nitrate reacted to form barium nitrate and silver chloride. The precipitate at station one was silver chloride.…

    Carbonation is another type of chemical weathering. Carbonation is the mixing of water with carbon dioxide to make carbonic acid. This type of weathering is important in the formation of caves. Dissolved carbon dioxide in rainwater or in moist air forms carbonic acid, and this acid reacts with minerals in rocks. chemical weathering tends to be different sorts of chemicals mixed together to form a material.…
