Oxygen toxicity

At pine lake, it is a lot of fun. Its loud, slippery, and smells like fish and dirty water. The water there is not dirty and is kinda clean for a normal pond. For this paragraph I am going to be focusing on smell. Now, the smell isn’t the best, but it doesn’t smell horrible. When you’re running around, swimming, and having lots of fun, the smell kinda goes away. But, when you first pull up, you can smell the smell of fish and water. It doesn’t smell like the ocean, but kinda does. Comparing to…

up. This will shape your overall experience. What does it mean to 'let it breath?' The science behind using a red wine decanter lies in the need for it to breath. Breathing just relates to the necessity of wine to come in contact with oxygen. The oxygen allows the alcohol in the wine to dissipate…

Knowing how to care for beta fish involves a lot more than just changing the water once a week and feeding the fish twice a day. No, there is indeed a lot more to knowing how to care for our little marine friends than that. Of course, if you really wanted to, you could just get by on just the bare minimum needed to keep the fish alive, such as keeping it in a simple fish bowl and going through the motions to feed and clean up after your fish. But if you want to extend your beta fish's…

Water, one of the most important thing in the world. How you ever thought about if there was no water? The effect without water in lakes or oceans would be devastating. No living things could survive. Water is what makes air and humans need air to live. If there were no water in lakes or oceans, the water cycle could not repeat the cycle. Without water, there would be no Earth! Water affects the water cycle because water has to be in the water cycle! The first step in the water cycle is…

Another reason for brominated hydrocarbonsous products, is because of its toxicity. The toxicity levels in this compound are still considered very high, but most compounds acquire the same characteristic. “Some brominated flame retardants were identified as persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic to both humans and the environment and were suspected of causing neurobehavioral effects and endocrine disruption” (Fire 6). The toxicity level is canceled out by the other beneficial qualities of…

Topic: Identifying Unknown Substances. Equipments: • 5 test tubes. • 1 beaker of Acid 1 beaker of water • 4-Litmus papers • 2 Pipette bulbs. • 1 robber stopper. • 1 Bunsen burner. • Q-tips(4). • Scoopula. Observation: Which substance is which? Hypothesis: All the unknown substances that we have are soluble in water. Procedure • We had a 4 test tubes filled with small amount of white powder. We labeled each test tube. For example the first test tube was labeled as “Substance A” , the second…

there are many liposuction techniques available to breakdown and remove problem fat areas. Many of these techniques have been used since the early 1970s in Europe. Often these techniques were problematic and complications arose because they were quite invasive and caused bloodloss and significant bruising. however, since the technique has advanced, new ways of performing liposuction have made it safer and less traumatic for patients. Dr Jeffrey Klein, pioneered a unique technique known as the…

The company U.S. Sugar and Florida Crystals, together referred to as “Big Sugar”, produce raw sugar from sugar cane farming and sugar mill company. They are the only producers that produce certified organic sugar that are completely made in the USA. This company needs to be more aware of the Clean Water Act (1972) which establishes the allowable water pollutant levels emitted by US businesses. In an article, Angry About Florida's Ruined Waters, Fishermen Unite Against Big Sugar, it discusses…

Cobalt: The element Cobalt it is located on the periodic table, Group 9. Cobalt is the 27th element on our Periodic Table. It is a chemical element, it has a density of 8.9 grams per cubic centimeter. Cobalt has a boiling point of 3,100 degrees Celsius (5,600 degrees Fahrenheit). Cobalt’s symbol is Co, The atomic # is 27 so the protons and electrons are 27 as well. Cobalt has an atomic mass of 59 and 32 neutrons. The melting point is 2,719 degrees Fahrenheit. This element was discovered in…

Station 3 analyses the quality of water within Baldwin Swamp through investigating the pH Level; the turbidity; the waters dissolved oxygen, nitrites, nitrates, ammonia and temperature. The obtained results convey the pH was neutral in 2009 but is currently 5.95, the equivalent of a normal river stream or that of milk. This Ph level is great because nutrients are most available to plants in the optimum 5.5 to 7.0 range, making the difference in the pH not effective to plants. These Ph levels…
