constant stress of being a college student does not allow the body to return to a normal state so a student may never be able to fully relax. This can lead to stress overload (Bower‚ 2010). Many factors can affect a student’s academic performance and grades. The National College Health Assessment of 2004 shows that the most significant impediment to effective listening‚ retaining information‚ and studying is stress. Stress is noted to be the number one cause of poor academic functioning in a student

acid solution would be titrated by slowly adding drops of solution into NaOH‚ and the volume of base needed to react with the acid is measured throughout. By using those data‚ the students are able to find what they were trying to calculate. On this lab‚ the students found the unknown acid‚ 4.36 x 10-5‚ and the equivalence point of 8.4‚ as well as the value of pH. Purpose: The purpose of the experiment was to utilize the techniques of titrations to measure the concentration of an acid or base in

Introduction: Purpose: The Purpose of this experiment is to find the width of a piece of hair using diffraction pattern created by a thin film. Hypothesis: If the hair is human it will have a width of 10-4m. Procedure: 1. Place two pieces of glass flat against each other. 2. Obtain a piece of long hair‚ most likely from one group member’s head. 3. Place the hair between the sheets of glass on one edge. 4. Place a rubber band around the pieces of glass on the side opposite

What is pH? a. pH is a measurement of hydrogen ion concentration. It measures rather the solution is acid‚ base‚ or neutral. 8. What is a base? a. Accepts hydrogen ions from another substance that have a pH>7. It taste bitter and feel slippery. 9. What is an acid? a. Component with a positive or

In biology species can become isolated from other species through a number of processes. These isolation processes keep the two species from interbreeding and producing hybrid offspring. There are five separate isolation processes that prevent two species capable of producing offspring from being able to do so. Ecological Isolation Ecological‚ or habitat‚ isolation is when two species that could interbreed do not because the species live in different areas. For example‚ in the wild of India both

where the rate starts to level is called the Kmax‚ in which the peak efficiency of enzymes is reached. In order to start the reaction‚ reactants require an initial supply of energy called activation energy. The enzymes work by reducing the amount of free energy that must be absorbed so that less required energy leads to faster rate of reaction. The rate of catalytic reactions is affected by the changes in temperature‚ pH‚ enzyme concentration‚ and substrate concentration. Each enzyme has an optimal
