coral bleaching, it’s the rising acidity levels in the ocean. the rise of acidity in the oceans has been connected to the increased levels of carbon dioxide. When the seawater becomes more acidic, the coral has a hard time rebuilding their calcium carbonate skeletons. If the water is too acidic, it will cause destruction among already preexisting…

What results would lead you to the conclusion that the material tested has high potential for AMD generation and would indicate that more extensive and intensive tests should be done to confirm the results. When looking at the Paste pH and Electrical Conductivity Tests, we are looking for an acidic environment and an environment with a high concentration of salt. Specifically, if our site sample has a pH of less than 4, then that indicates that the sample is acidic. If our site sample has an…

The invention of gunpowder was drastic and life altering discovery. Gunpowder was discovered in Ancient China in the 9th Century during the Han dynasty, by an alchemist named Wei Boyang (A&E). Boyang was one of the many alchemists hired by the government to create an exlir that would satisfy the emperor’s search for immortality. Through his research he accidentally came across gunpowder. The alchemists “experimented with the Sulphur, common charcoal, and saltpeter heating the substances in order…

Article Evaluation Essay Hung Le Vietnam Soda Market Taking Off This article, “Vietnam Soda Market Taking Off”, is one major resource used in my research on the possibility of Tan Hiep Phat Beverage Group for improving its sales performance in Vietnam, by reallocating both the inputs and outputs between its production of ginger ale and root beer. The article was retrieved from the website of one of the most reliable newspapers and reporters in beverage businesses field, Beverage World, with…

sugars, which are simple sugars that include monosaccharides and some disaccharides. The Benedict’s reagent is made of Copper (II) sulfate ion which reduces to Copper (I) during the test. It is made by adding copper sulfate with sodium citrate and carbonate that is dissolved in 400mLs of water (Benedict’s Test). The chemical reaction within this test is…

Environment is the totality of all social, biological and physical factors individually as well as collectively that compose the nature and man-made surroundings. Man is a part of environmental system. The environment consists of four components atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere. The temperature variation in these components is the basis of heat budget of the earth. While the elements (Carbon, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Oxygen etc.) and compounds that sustain us cycle endlessly…

1.0. Synopsis The objective of this experiment is to use the gravimetric method to determine the concentration of sulfate. Gravimetric analysis is a method used to determine the mass or concentration of a substance by measuring a change in mass. To determine the concentration of the sulfate, the precipitation of Barium sulfate is done first by adding the sulfate solution with hydrochloric acid, then heating while stirring it. Next is the washing and filtration of the Barium Sulfate precipitate,…

As previously discussed throughout this course, there are many requirements that are of concern for all animal species, all the while, each individual has a different nutritional need based on several factors. Meeting an individual’s nutritional requirement is essential for healthy living and potentially can prevent disease. Obesity is a common health problem that is not only a main concern in humans, but pets, as well. Raising obese pets stems from overfeeding, in adequate exercise and feeding…

intact for the species living in the water. When oceans absorb high levels of carbon dioxide, the acidity levels raise and the natural order of the ocean becomes compromised. This is what is known as “ocean acidification” or “OA” for short. Calcium carbonate minerals are building blocks for skeletons and shells of marine organisms.” This causes oceans more dangerous for people to swim at because of the high level of carbon dioxide, as erosion continues it would be more problematic to deal with…

forms of eukaryotic life were destroyed. However, microfossils have been found that date back to this time, of both prokaryotic, as well as a few eukaryotic fossils. This suggests that not only did organisms survive, they adapted to shallow water carbonate environments. Furthermore, the fossils that were found resemble those that were discovered in rocks slightly younger than the snowball event, strengthening the idea that there were organisms that survived the mass glaciation. It is a…
