Renewables contributed 19 percent to our energy consumption and 22 percent to our electricity generation in 2012 and 2013‚ respectively. Both‚ modern renewables‚ such as hydro‚ wind‚ solar and biofuels‚ as well as traditional biomass‚ contributed in about equal parts to the global energy supply. Worldwide investments in renewable technologies amounted to more than US$ 214 billion in 2013‚ with countries like China and the United States heavily investing in wind‚ hydro‚ solar and biofuels.

stoichiometric relationships and limiting reactants‚ quantities of substances yielded or consumed in a reaction can be determined by analyzing the amount of material involved. A vinegar-water solution is employed in this experiment because a fixed amount of NaCO3 can be reacted in pure water‚ by manipulating the amount of vinegar in the dissolving solution‚ the amount of acid capable of reacting increases; resulting in a greater amount of NaCO3 reacted and greater generation of CO2. Percent by mass of NaCO3 that

Experiment 5: Percent Water in a Hydrated Salt Chemistry 1300 Instructor: 2/8/12 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the percent by mass in a hydrated salt‚ as well as to learn to handle laboratory apparatus without touching it. The hydrated salt‚ calcium carbonate‚ was heated with high temperature to release water molecules. Gravimetric analysis was used in this experiment to determine the percent by mass of water in a hydrated salt. The hypothesis of this experiment

1. A student neglected to add sodium carbonate when extracting the tea leaves with hot water. Yet a very high yield of caffeine was obtained. The crystals melted at 202-214°C. Explain. • The sodium carbonate is supposed to be added when extracting the tea leaves with hot water in order to help purify the caffeine. So since the student neglected to add sodium carbonate the caffeine won’t be pure but the student would still be able to recover a large amount of caffeine. The literature melting point

But what amount of oxygen is adequate? How can we know the amount of oxygen present in what we consider fresh air? The purpose of this experiment was to determine the percent oxygen typically present in air. The conclusion of the test suggested that
