environmental impact surrounding that process. Hydraulic Fracturing or “Fracking” for short is a process where chemicals and water are injected into wells to breakup rock formations that have gas or oil trapped in the rock itself. This process is specifically used for developing and extracting oil and natural gas from shale. While most people have heard the term “Fracking”, very few understand or even consider the down the road steps required to transfer, process and transport the fuel once it…

Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and some bacteria, to use the energy from the sunlight to transform carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The equation for photosynthesis is: carbon dioxide + water light energy glucose + oxygen. Chloroplasts are an organelle found in the leaves of green plants and are essential in photosynthesis as they are responsible for producing the glucose and storing the energy. Photosynthesis is vital for all life on…

Procedure: Before beginning each experiment, remove all clutter from the workstation and read the directions for the experiments thoroughly. Part 1: Warm slightly more than 300 mL of water to approximately 70 degrees Celsius. Measure out 150 mL of water into the coffee cup calorimeter. Take the temperature of this water in the coffee cup calorimeter once it has reached a steady temperature. Then, add an ice cube approximately the size of a large marshmallow. Stir the ice and water and measure…

This reaction involves very intricate and steps that are critical to understanding the concept of equilibrium as a whole. First, an important concept to understand when describing any reaction is the idea of collision probability. When we examine gas molecules in a 1 cm3 container, there can be billions of collisions per second between neighboring molecules, and even then, maybe only one of these collisions result in a reaction. If any one collision occurs, the only way they will react to form a…

Ultrasonic interferometer Working principle An ultrasonic interferometer is a simple and direct device to determine the ultrasonic velocity in liquids with a high degree of accuracy. An ultrasonic interferometer is used to determine the accurate ultrasonic velocity in liquids. The principle used in the measurement of velocity is based on the accurate determination of the wavelength in the medium. The principle of ultrasonic interferometer for the measurement of velocity is determination of the…

When dry ice is put into water they start to reacting and boiling. That reaction is called sublimation. Sublimation is when something solid goes straight to gas skipping the liquid phase. So because the water is warm it heats up the dry ice which causes it to form a gas. The gas is carbon dioxide. The temperatures of everything are very strange. The water cannot be cold when trying the experiment because it will not heat up the dry ice and create carbon dioxide gasses but it will probably…

A filter is something that removes impurities or solid particles from a liquid or gas that passes through it. There has been a total of 76% of deaths due to infections from dirty liquids and poisonous gases. Not many filters do the same job you would like it to do, but with this particular filter it is made to filter out gases, liquids, and solids from a variety of different elements and objects as well as cleaning any object you toss into it. The item's frame is powerful enough to do these…

A mixture of two unknown liquids were obtained. The assigned mixture code was recorded in the notebook (#10). The mixture of the two miscible liquids contained a low boiling point and high boiling point. The method used to separate the two miscible liquids was simple distillation and therefore a simple distillation apparatus was set up. The apparatus included 250mL distillation flask, a 100ml receiving flask, a condenser for water to run through, and a thermometer to monitor the temperature. The…

IB Standard Level Environmental Systems and Societies Internal Assessment The Effect of Varying Amounts of Yeast on CO2 levels IA1 Isobel Woodfin Third Period October 14th, 2015 Paul Ogle-Sporer, Davis O’Shea SECTION 1: PLANNING Research Question: This lab was designed in order to answer the question: How do increased/varying amounts of yeast affect the CO2 levels of decomposing apple? Introduction: This experiment tests the effect of varying amounts of…

Introduction/Purpose: Chemicals all perform different reactions when dissolving into different chemicals, and in the lab “Our First Lab” my group and I observed one of these chemical reactions. The purpose of the lab was to witness the chemistry behind these reactions in action, so we could put research and observations together on how it was possible for something to illuminate with only a forced bend to it. Observed how each light sticks glow depended on the temperature they were exposed to,…
