The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to create a clear aqueous fertilizer that had a pH range of 6.0-7.0 with first three solid compounds the first day and then four solid compounds the second day. To complete this experiment, make calculations to find how much of each compound is needed in grams, use an analytical balance to measure out compounds accurately, mix the compounds in DI water until they are dissolved, test pH levels, effectively add acids or bases depending on pH level, and administrate EDTA when a precipitate has formed. When only components that include 0.06g Nitrogen, 0.0497g Phosphorous, and 0.0399g Potassium are combined, on the first day of the experiment, a very basic solution with a pH level of 13.0 formed. The addition of 18 droplets of hydrochloric acid lowered the pH level to 6.0. When combining components…
6th Science DBQ Anna-Sophia Pinson Did you know that if you melt a rock, it will turn into magma? Scientists know all of this because they study the rock cycle. The rock cycle is very important to scientists because of geology (OI). Geology tells scientists about the history of the Earth (Doc. 2).…
We planned on making a five-gram sample for both calcium phosphate and calcium oxalate. Stoichiometry was necessary to determine the amount of reactants needed for the kidney stones. Calcium phosphate had a balanced equation of Ca (NO3) 2 (aq) + NaPO4 (aq) ⇌ Ca3 (PO4) 2 (s) + 2 Na (NO3) (aq). The balanced equation of calcium oxalate was Ca (NO3) 2 (aq) + Na2C2O4 (aq) ⇌ CaC2O4 (s) + 2 Na (NO3) 2.…

In conclusion, the invention of tractors and other machinery has changed the face of farming for forever. III. The main idea of the “Turning Bombs into Fertilizer” is: materials from bombs, such as ammonium nitrate, is a main ingredient in farmer’s fertilizer. One fact or example that supports the main idea is after world war two, the government found a huge surplus of ammonium nitrate left over.…
One of the ways these phosphates can occur is through decaying plant and animal remains. Also, phosphate can be found in fossilized bone and bird droppings. These are non-point sources, being harder to track down where they are because of all the possibilities of the origin. Phosphorus is a key element in growth for plants and animals. But, if the phosphorus level is too high in the drinking water it can be toxic.…
Who Really Discovered “The New World?” What if Christopher Columbus wasn’t the first European to visit the North America? What if everything that has been taught about the pilgrims and Indians and the Mayflower is a lie? Who really “discovered” The New World?…

Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre Denver residents and music enthusiasts best associate the Red Rock Amphitheatre with concerts, graduations, and other performances. Red Rocks combines awe inspiring sites with naturally acoustic splendor. The Amphitheatre attracts audiences and big name musicians to it stage with ease. However, Red Rocks Amphitheatre has a rich history many do not consider while listening to their favorite band or enjoying the trails around the park.…
Okay, despite the fact that I kind of dislike it whenever one of my favorite songs goes 'mainstream', I do think Clean Bandit's 'Rockabye' deserves the success and fair recognition it's having now. From the first time I heard that song, I've always thought the lyrics are insanely unique from all the other pop songs you hear on the radio (and internet) and I just love how it's about single moms' struggles in parenting. It's an issue many don't talk about and I think it matters. So…
The 1950’s saw the emergence and rise of rock and roll music. This mass media allowed people to escape reality and get loose. Elvis Presley was the “King of Rock ’n’ Roll” and one of the most famous artists during this period of time. Elvis was more successful than any other Rock ’n’ Roll artists. He not only illustrated his own style of music, but he also epitomized teenage rebellion of the 1950’s.…
There are two main reasons why “rock and roll” became “rock music”. The first reason was the fact that the “rock and roll” used to mean either the genre of music that was associated with the teenagers of the time, and/or it was also used to describe music with a strong connection to rhythm & blues. Yet by this point in history, things had drastically changed. Due to the influence of many social changes, rock and roll become more self-consciously artistic, and experimental, thus paving the way for hybrid genres to arise. The second reason for this change into “rock music”, was the changes undergoing to the music at that time.…
“Soda drinking has previously been associated with lower bone mineral density in women and children...diet soda drinking behaviors are often different than regular soda drinking behaviors - women often use diet sodas in an effort to avoid weight gain- either to stave off hunger between meals or as a replacement for calorie-containing beverages. Many women drink over 20 diet sodas per week. ”(diseaseproof) The question is, are diet sodas destroying people’s bone structures? Diet soda contains many different ingredients, and many of which can be harmful to the body.…
There are many different types of popular American music. Rock and roll, which is now known as rock, was one of the biggest contemporary styles in the mid-1950s. Many people thought this music would be a fad and would not be important to the musical culture of America. Rock not only continued, but it became one of the biggest commercial products that was eventually the powerhouse of many recording industries. Rock music has a wide appeal throughout the world ranging from the youngest of society to the some of the older generations.…
