Carbon

light intensity increases the rate of photosynthesis also increases as this is helping the chloroplast to absorb chlorophyll. However, when it reaches its optimum level the level stays the same. Moreover, the Carbon dioxide concentration levels allows the plant to create food quicker. Once the Carbon dioxide reaches its optimum level the rate of photosynthesis stays the same. In addition, at the start, when the temperature begins to rise the rate of photosynthesis rises with it although after it…

Mentos create such exciting geysers? It is mostly caused by a process called nucleation, where the carbon dioxide in the soda is attracted to the Mentos. When this happens it creates so much pressure that the soda goes flying. So what speeds and slows down this reaction? Some scientists are saying the primary cause of diet coke and mentos geyser is a physical reaction, not a chemical reaction. All the carbon dioxide in the soda is squeezed into the liquid and looks for a way out. Nucleation…

not release carbon dioxide. Other ways to conserve energy is to turn off and unplug electronic devices while not in use (232b). Moves are being made to slow down carbon emissions. “The Kyoto Protocol requires developed countries to restrict emissions of carbon dioxide by 95% every year” (232c). Once the countries restrict the carbon emissions this will reduce the greenhouse gases. A few plans are already in place to decrease carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. One way would be a Carbon Tax, which…

studied Cellular Respiration. For our project, we made a working model. This box (points to box) represents a cell. As you can see, we’ve drawn the parts of the cell on the box. R: The equation for cellular respiration is Glucose + Oxygen-----------> Carbon Dioxide+ Water+ Energy. First, glucose, which is in the cell, (drops into mitochondria) is the first of the two raw materials used. The next is oxygen (drops whatever oxygen is into mitochondria) is the second raw material. I:Oxygen…

with bigger molecule will produce more soot as the percentage of carbon of the molecule is higher. The amount of soot produced depends on the percentage of carbon in a hydrocarbon molecule. Hexane and cyclohexene produced very small of light soot due to smaller compound compared to toluene. Aromatic compounds like toluene are high in carbon content and slow to be oxidized. Some of the carbon atoms are converted into elemental carbon in the heat, but escape the flame before they are attacked by…

each other. Photosynthesis uses sunlight to convert foods from carbon dioxide and water light energy into a six-carbon simple sugar, and also produces oxygen. While cellular respiration uses the oxygen and sugars to release chemical energy for the cells to use, and also produces water and carbon dioxide. 2. The rate at which photosynthesis occurs needs to be higher because photosynthesis creates building blocks for growth. (six-carbon simple sugars) Cellular respiration is also needed for the…

discovering a way of properly regulating carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning power plants. Carbon dioxide is primarily produced as a byproduct of combustion of fossil fuels in power plants in order to provide heat to turn water into steam, that can drive the turbines that create electricity. According to the Environmental Protection Agency in 2012, humans produced 5,400 million metric tons of carbon dioxide and power plants produced 38 percent of the total carbon dioxide produced.…

definition and view of respiration, in addition to the production of carbon dioxide in organisms from two different kingdoms.A big difference existed betweem the production of carbon dioxide among each creature and that was clearly noticeable in our data.Animals rely heavily on oxygen gas which is the product outcome of Photosynthesis. In the other hand, plants need carbon dioxide and on this experiment the production of carbon dioxide lacked, mainly because Elodea was not allowed to…

many differences that define them to exactly what they are. Photosynthesis is the process in plants and certain other organisms in which light energy from the Sun is converted to chemical energy in organic molecules. For Photosynthesis to occur 6CO2 (Carbon Dioxide), 6H2O (Water), and sunlight…
