Methods: Materials needed: Bottled water, control (tasteless) strips, PTC testing paper with ~ 0.003mg per strip, 1-inch strips of black licorice. 1. Provide each student with one large medicine cup filled of water. 2. Each student rinse his or her mouth of any residue prior to tasting the PTC paper with water to avoid misreading for data collection. 3. Give each student blindly a tasteless paper strip as a control. 4. Have each student again rinse his or her mouth of any residue then proceed…

Some of the risks and impacts detected in fracking are multiple and in different areas. 1. Risks During Drilling: there are special drilling techniques necessary so that later they can move on to the fracking, this causes the normal drilling risk to add up to the usual risks of a hydrocarbon sounding, the specifics of diverted soundings are joined. These are risks of explosion, gas leaks, sulfuric acid leaks (very toxic in low concentrations), and formation collapses on the pipeline. The last…

The objective of this experiment was to identify an unknown sample by preforming classification tests such as: Bisulfite test, Schiff’s test, and Idoform test. Also, to confirm the identity of the unknown by melting point, IR spectroscopy, and 1H NMR. For the solubility test, 1 mL of deionized water was placed in a test tube. A few drops of the of the unknown was added to the test tube and mixed with a pipette. After a few minutes, the unknown was determined to be insoluble. Next, the Schiff’s…

Jwalant Bhagat Gasland is documentary, which talks about a problem that is currently sweeping the country and promising landowners a quick payoff. Gasland’s Josh Fox discovers hydraulic fracturing, a drilling process. The Bush-Cheney Energy Policy Act of 2005 is an exemption that hydraulic fracturing has from the United States’ most basic environmental regulations. Some regulations include the Clean Air Act and the Safe Drinking Water Act. Josh Fox discovered over a twenty-four investigation…

Imagine going to get a glass of water out of the faucet and it comes out black or not at all. In the movie “Gasland”, a fracking site(s) has leaked into many different homes water sources. These families now have to get water trucked to their house because gas has leaked into their water. They were able to take lighters to their faucets and ignite the water into flames. How would this make you feel that even your home water was contaminated? Fracking affects not only your home water…

The molar heat of vaporization of n-heptane for the rising T and falling T sets of data was 26.10 kJ/mol . This is the energy required to transform a given amount of n-heptane from a liquid into a gas at a certain pressure. In both table 1 and 2, the vapor pressure was gradually increased as the temperature increased. Also, the vapor pressure was decreased as the temperature decreased. This means that the data values that obtained from this experiment were true values. The isoteniscope method…

While there has been disagreement over fracking, fracking is very vital to the United States. The need for natural gas in the United States is increasing, so the country needs to produce more of it own energy. If the country produces more of its own energy, America does not have to send soldiers to defend oil fields. (Beyond oil) Fracking also provides huge job opportunities and funds the United States. It important for the United States to have more jobs because many people are unemployed and…

Introduction Filtration is a passive process in which solutes pass through a membrane from high pressure to low pressure. The amounts of solutes that pass through the membrane are dependent upon the amount of pressure and the size of the membranous pores. Solutes such as blood cells and proteins are too large to pass through so capillaries retain them. An example of filtration in the body is renal filtration, a process in which the blood is filtered in the kidney so that substances that are…

h Lab Report Katelyn Gularski (Hayly Stein) PM Tuesday 9/9/14 Introduction The purpose of this lab was to separate the mixture of salt, sand, and shells, so that each could be individually massed and the percentage-by-mass could be determined. The best way to get the sand and shells by themselves is to get rid of the salt. Since salt is dissolvable in water, you use water solubility (Hallows, 2014). Water solubility is defined as a substance being able to completely…

Fracking Should Be Outlawed in The United States. Fracking? What on Earth is that? Well, hydraulic fracturing, or the so-called fracking, is the process of drilling down into the Earth, then using high pressure water to break open the rocks, to release the natural gas inside, but there’s a problem. Water, sand, and chemicals are also injected along with high pressured water into the rocks. The gas comes right out of the head of the fracking well, but where do the chemicals and…
