Ailine Veiga Question: what is the heat of fusion of ice? Hypothesis: To get the heat of fusion of ice we need to determine the Energy it takes to melt the ice and also the mass of the ice and determine the heat of fusion. To determine the mass of the ice melted (m) we start by determine the volume of the water generated when the ice melted. This is the difference between the final volume (v2) and the initial volume (v1). Using the density of water (1.0g/mL)‚ this volume can be converted into mass

The problem of the ice melting The melting of polar ice is primarily caused by the increasing amount of gas emissions‚ mainly CO2 rising into the atmosphere (global warming) Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth ’s atmosphere and oceans. Since the early 20th century‚ Earth ’s mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C. Scientists are more than 90% sure that it is caused by rising amount of concentrations of greenhouse gases‚ which are produced by human activities

Thesis statement: Scientific discoveries can lead to disasters after the wrong people get the scientific discovery in their hands such as the A-bomb and Ice-nine which caused many fatalities including the people who made this mistake. The A-bomb that dropped on Hiroshima was a fatal discovery that was not needed at the moment and was only used to cause fatalities.

Fishing on a Frozen Lake I believe that ice fishing is the best type of fishing to build‚ strengthen‚ and polish a relationship between a father and his son. Fishing from a boat‚ shore‚ or on a river offers opportunities to get to know each other and spend quality time near each other. However‚ there is something very powerful about being so cold‚ your nose freezes with each inhale and exhale‚ that creates a picture-perfect setting to engage in deep and meaningful discussions.

Assignment: Chronicles of Ice Summary: In Chronicles of Ice‚ Gretel Ehrlich sets out to “learn whatever lessons a glacier has to teach”‚ and to share what she has learned with us‚ as readers. The lesson the author relays to us is that the fate of the glacier is inextricably linked to that of the biological health of the Earth itself. Ehrlich uses the glacier as a device to show both cause and effect of the declining health of the Earth’s climate. The gases and particulate trapped in the ice provide the historical
