Water management

Organic food is better than conventional food for many reasons. First, the conventional food has a big size, and it remains for long time. For example, conventional food will not get expire quickly. It could remain 2 times more the organic food. Conventional food such as crops gives a more quantity than organic food. It might be true that conventional is bigger and remains long time. However, Organic food does not have chemicals and Genetic engineering. Chemicals have a strong effect on…

whenever two chemicals react together you can’t lose any of the atoms. So lets say you have a chemical reaction of H2O + NaCl, which is water and table salt, it could go to NaH2 +ClO, but it can’t lose any of the atoms it started with or gain any new ones. The Law of Conservation of Mass governs how a chemical reaction happens because if the chemical reaction of water and table salt happened and it lost a hydrogen atom, it could make something completely different and the physical properties…

Crop and livestock production is a major source of two greenhouse gases, methane and nitrous oxide. The latter is produced by the leaching, volatilization and runoff of nitrogen fertilizers and the breakdown of crop residues and animal wastes. Through burning of biomass, agriculture also releases large quantities of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Agriculture also stands to suffer adversely from climatic change. In tropical environments the effects of climate change on agriculture and hence…

The water moccasin, North America's only venomous water snake, has a distinctive blocky, triangular head; a thick body; and a dangerous bite. Common names include variants on water moccasin, swamp moccasin, black moccasin, cottonmouth, gapper, or simply viper.Water Moccasins reach 30 to 48 inches, occasionally up to 74 inches. The back is dark olive or black, the belly is paler. The snout is always pale, and there is usually a dark vertical line by each nostril.Water Moccasins are primarily…

cutting the roots of the Eelgrass,while they are digging for prey in the sediment or making burrows.This a huge negative impact because Eelgrass has many valuable ecological functions such as stabilizing shorelines and sea floor ground,cleaning coastal waters, providing habitat for a diversity of flora and fauna, and supporting the foundation a food web.this means many species lose their home,protection and…

Menu Name: elastomeric roof coatings Article Summary: A water proof and flexible surface coating will prolong the life and improve the appearance of some roofs. Article: Roofs protect buildings, contents and people from the elements. What people may not realize is that many roofs themselves also need protection. Many variables, such as materials used, quality of construction and climate, determine how to keep a roof from deteriorating prematurely. New Orleans roofing professionals can…

Rain is much more than weather in literature. In Julia Alvarez’s In the Time of the Butterflies, rain is used to symbolize a time of trouble and confusion that has washed over the country, but the destructive element of the weather is also used to symbolize the new start that is to come for the Dominican Republic. In Minerva’s chapter six, a large section of the chapter is titled “Rainy Spell.” When Minerva says “The rain comes down all morning, beating against the shutters, blurring the sounds…

Global warming is turning into a huge problem today. Oil spills are happening, more and more pollution is being put into the air and causing problems with the ecosystem. Citizens see that this is evolving more and more each day and the government is just ignoring it for “bigger problems”. The ocean is being polluted and millions of dollars are spent almost every year trying to fix it the problem temporarily. The Democrats would like to fix all these environmental problems but they need to pass…

Abstract: The Grignard reaction was successfully accomplished. An amount of 1.20 ml of 2-methyl-2-pentanol was collected, and 9.60% yield was calculated based on the theoretical yield. Despite the low amount of 2-methyl-2-pentanol, its identity was confirmed by comparing the experimental refractive index and infrared spectrum to the literature refractive index and infrared spectrum of 2-methyl-2-pentanol. Statement and purpose The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize a specific alcohol…

According to Regis, the reason why there were two layers is because the two compounds in the solution were immiscible. This means that they don’t dissolve each other. Therefore the aqueous solvent will sit on top and the solvent that is immiscible with water, the organic solvent, will sit on the bottom. The reason why the percent recovery wasn’t higher was because maybe not all of the upper aqueous layer or all of the organic layer was extracted all the way. If some of the upper layer was mixed…
