The intention of the “Foul Water” lab was to purify a sample of sewage water and conserve as much as possible. The water should be clean enough to wash your hands with. My hypothesis is that the water will be cleaner than the initial water sample‚ but not to the standard that I would wash my hands with. Significant terms to know include purification‚ filtration‚ adsorption‚ volume‚ clarity‚ dissolved‚ filtrate‚ impurities‚ pipette‚ clay triangle‚ funnel cone‚ iron ring‚ beaker‚ and Erlenmeyer flask

Steel Wool Scissors Ruler Lemon Juice Orange Juice Vinegar Distilled Water Four Small Bowls Thin Towel Tall plastic cup Graph Paper Procedure: Before beginning your experiment‚ make sure that the distilled water has been opened and exposed to the air for at least a few hours. This will allow it to absorb some carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and lower its pH from a level of about 7 to about 5.8. The distilled water will act as a model for "normal" rainwater‚ which has a pH of about

purpose of this lab was to practice measuring the mass and volume of different samples and to calculate the density and specific gravity of those samples using the measurements. B. Equipment 1. Electronic balance- The electronic balance is a device used to measure the exact mass of an object 2. Graduated cylinder- The graduated cylinder is a tool used to measure the volume of a liquid 3. Pipets- Pipets are small tubes that suck up and contain liquids C. Technique 1. The water displacement technique

Introduction: This lab investigates the question‚ what is the water quality of the U-High creek based on micro invertebrates found in the creek? There are many factors that affect the quality of water such as phosphorus and nitrogen levels‚ dissolved oxygen‚ and pH. Phosphorus and nitrogen in water can increase the growth of aquatic plants and algae‚ leading to the decomposition of dead plant material and the removal of dissolved oxygen from water. The total nitrogen concentrations for freshwater

1. Put your safety goggles and lab coat on. 2. Gather all the necessary materials in order to conduct this experiment such as boiled water‚ distilled water‚ calcium chloride‚ distilled water‚ glycerin‚ test tubes‚ nails‚ test tube rack‚ graduated cylinders‚ tongs‚ scoopula‚ erasable marker and parafilm. 3. With the erasable marker‚ label the ten test tubes from 1 to 10. 4. For Test Tube 1‚ drop an iron nail in it without adding anything else. Place the test tube into the to-be-heated rack (50⁰F)

polluted water so the water will have a clarity of 0%. If a filter is built for the polluted water‚ then the waters clarity will be 0% and the pH value will be 7. The purpose for this lab is to get the polluted water to a clarity of 0%. Water pollution is playing a major role in today’s ecosystems because the water is becoming unsafe to live in and unsafe to consume. “Water pollution is any physical or chemical change in water that adversely affects organisms” (Chiras‚ 2015). When the water is dirty

SAMPLE DESCRIPTIVE LAB REPORT Examination of Protozoan Cultures to Determine Cellular Structure and Motion Pattern Abstract Protozoans are unicellular eukaryotes with either plant- or animal-like characteristics. Through careful observation‚ we analyzed various protozoan cultures in order to identify characteristics associated with cell structure and movement of these one-celled organisms. We found that Protists exhibit certain characteristics that allow them to be categorized into different groups

First‚ the matting was placed on the four slides‚ cover-slips as well as the container of blood on top. Blood containers are in dropper bottles. Number each slide with a wax pencil. A drop of blood was placed on a slide and numbered it slide #1. Slide #1: 1. With the wooden applicator stick‚ dip the end into the blood and place a tiny drop onto slide #1 and put cover slip over it. Slide#2 1. Place 1 drop of 0.9% NaCl with the drop of blood (use the filter paper to absorb excess liquid). 2.

project is to determine whether river water or lake water is cleanest as it relates to tap water. The independent variables being tested in this experiment are the different waters being tested which are river water‚ lake water‚ and tap water‚ which is the control. The dependant variable is which of the three waters are the cleanest as it relates to unfiltered tap water. The purpose of this experiment is to determine what the different aspects of the three types of waters are and how that relates to cleanliness
