Release date: 27 April 2014 Submission date: 9 May 2014 TUTORIAL ON HYPOTHESIS TESTING (1) Basic Concept 1. State the null and alternative hypothesis for each conjecture : a. A researcher thinks that if expectant mothers use vitamin pills‚ the birth weight of the babies will increase. The average birth weight of the population is 3.0kg. b. An engineer hypothesizes that the mean number of defects can be decreased in a manufacturing process of compact disks by using robots instead of humans

Acid: A chemical substance (typically‚ a corrosive or sour-tasting liquid) that neutralizes alkalis‚ dissolves some metals‚ and turns litmus red. Ionic Dissociation: Dissociation in chemistry and biochemistry is a general process in which ionic compounds (complexes‚ or salts) separate or split into smaller particles‚ ions‚ or radicals‚ usually in a reversible manner. Strength of Acids: The strength of an acid refers to its ability or tendency to lose a proton. There are very few strong acids. A

Weak Ties Theory Explanations > Theories > Weak Ties Theory Description | Research | Example | So What? | See also | References Description We have both friends and acquaintances. Our friends are often a part of a close-knit group who largely know one another. Our acquaintances are far less likely to know one another. In terms of connection with general society and staying in touch with what is going on in the wider world‚ the weak ties with our acquaintances are paradoxically much more

Experiment18 Aim To determination the partition coefficient of ethanoic acid between water and butan-2-ol. Procedure 1. The room temperature was recorded. 2. 15cm3 of the given aqueous ethanoic acid and 15cm3 of butan-2-ol were poured into a 100cm3 separating funnel‚ using suitable apparatus. The funnel was stoppered and was shook vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes. (The pressure in the funnel was released by occasionally opening the tap.) 3. 10cm3 of each layer was separated

______________________ Evaluation of the Gas Law Constant Objectives In this experiment‚ we will determine the Ideal Gas Constant‚ R‚ which relates the number of moles of gas present to its volume‚ pressure and absolute temperature. Background To see how "R" was derived‚ we must look at the proportionalities defined by the other fundamental gas laws. For example‚ Charles’ Law showed us that the volume of a gas sample is proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure. Thus V ∝ T abs . In addition

Amino Acids Glycine is the smallest of the amino acids. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. In aqueous solution at or near neutral pH‚ glycine will exist predominantly as the zwitterion. Alanine is a hydrophobic molecule. It is ambivalent‚ meaning that it can be inside or outside of the protein molecule. The α carbon of alanine is optically active; in proteins‚ only the L-isomer is found. Serine differs from alanine in that one of the methylenic

When estimating the effect of changes in the money supply to changes in nominal GDP‚ it is common to assume that the velocity of money is constant. The velocity of money is a measure of average number of times per year that a dollar is exchanged. The quantity theory of money states that the money supply multiplied by the velocity of money is equal to the price level multiplied by output. ( ) Price level multiplied by output is the nominal output. Therefore‚ a percent change in the money

Hypothesis There are reasons why students are having problems in their academic studies because of playing DotA. These are: School Problems – Student tends to put their attention in playing DotA if they get fail grades or low grades. School is a great source of self – esteem. It can build up or break down a student. So whenever the student gets failing grade or low grade‚ their motivation gets low. When they are having a problem in school‚ they use DotA as past time to relieve frustration

Acid Rain and the Effects of our Monuments and Churches The two controlled experiments that I chose to do‚ do not involve trees or plants‚ which I think a lot of people will be doing. I wanted to explore the devastation that acid rain does to our historic monuments and beautiful churches. My first controlled experiment is based on the Statue of Liberty. It is made of copper so I am using pennies in my experiment. (nps.gov. n.d.) My observation is that acid rain corrodes metals

Experiment #6: Colorimetric Determination of pH Almira‚ Faerie Carleen Lucile L. Gallardo‚ Charlotte O. Group #6‚ Chemistry 18.1‚ MHEG1‚ Ma’am Arlou Angeles September 23‚ 2013 I. Abstract The acidity of the four unknown solutions were determined with the use of colorimetry using McIlvaine’s buffer solutions varying in proportion of its constituents (disodium phosphate and citric acid). These buffer solutions were subjected to the addition of corresponding pH indicators and the variation of
