Cementation: The steel wool turned into a brown colour where it had been in contact with the sulphuric acid with copper dissolved into it. The copper attached onto the steel wool and it was replaced by the steel wool. The liquid was not blue anymore and it was a clear colour. Electrowinning: Bubbles formed around the electrodes as soon as they entered the solution. Bubbles

growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions‚ in water‚ without soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown with their roots in the mineral nutrient solution only or in an inert medium‚ such as perlite‚ gravel‚ mineral wool‚ or coconut husk. Researchers discovered in the 19th century that plants absorb essential mineral nutrients as inorganic ions in water. In natural conditions‚ soil acts as a mineral nutrient reservoir but the soil itself is not essential to plant growth. When the mineral nutrients in the

Chemically‚ wax is made of esters of long-chain fatty acids and long-chain alcohols. Lanolin is usually obtained from sheep wool; it has the ability to absorb 25–30% of its own weight of water and to form a fine emulsion. Mineral oil‚ which consists of high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons‚ provides spreadability. In order to allow non-polar substances‚ such as lanolin and mineral oil‚ to be uniformly dispersed in a polar medium‚ water‚ one needs strong emulsifying agents. An emulsifying agent must have
