Smaller particle sizes of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide (approximately 20nm) have proven to be more effective at reflecting and scattering UV radiation [4]. In order to determine that the SPF increases when nanosized particles of ZnO and TiO2 are used, spectral scans of ZnO and…

Rockets are a very important aspect to the world, for they help in making huge discoveries in science and astronomy. Expensive materials, such as aluminum, titanium, and nickel alloy, help make a sturdy rocket. For the bottle rocket, my partner, Maren Cheney, and I used the following materials: 2 plastic 2-liter bottles, office folder paper, clear duct tape, yarn, 2 sponges, and cotton. The payload of the rocket is the object(s) being carried throughout the flight. While the payload of real…

Chemistry is in everyday life, including space travel. One might ask what is involved with space travel? A lot of times fuel for the rockets come to mind, but there is also the making of the rocket itself and how they breathe all the way up into space. A method they use for breathing in space is electrolysis. Other factors are the diet, the removal of waste, and the impact of space. In spacecraft fuel the two main categories are liquid and solid rockets, which have different combinations and…
