affect the reaction rate are surface area‚ temperature‚ and concentration and pressure. Surface area is the exposed‚ outer layer of a solid. Increased surface area increases reaction rate because more particles on the surface of a solid come in contact with the particles of another substance. For example‚ if you place a donut stick into water‚ the donut will react slowly with the acid. This is because the acid only comes in contact with the particles on the surface of the donut. But‚ if you crush

between the rate of reaction and the surface area. The larger the surface are‚ the faster the rate of reaction seems to be. However‚ although the grain with the largest surface area (the smallest grain) reached the highest point within the shortest amount of time‚ its end result was still lower then the medium sized grain. The explanation for this result is relatively easy. The rate of a chemical reaction can be increased by increasing the size of the surface area to volume ratio of the solid reactant

growth‚ more chemical activity will have to happen and the rate of metabolism will also increase‚ which means that more substances have to be taken in and to also be removed. This is where the surface area to volume ratio comes into place; the reason why this ratio is so important is because the surface area of a cell essentially affects the rate of the transferring of useful substances (through diffusion and osmosis etc.) in and out of the organism. On the other hand‚ the total volume of the organism

Synopsis This project report explains about the surface tension and capillarity of liquid through a simple experiment of finding the capillarity of various detergents. Oil stains and grease on dirty clothes cannot be removed‚ using water alone‚ because water does not wet them. If detergents added ‚ surface tension is decreased‚ the area of contact is increased. Detergent molecules have the shape of a hairpin‚ one of which is attracted to water

Best Rubik’s Cube I know what you’re thinking… “Are there different kinds of Rubik’s Cube?” The answer to that question is a resounding YES! There is a variety of Rubik’s Cube of different sizes. Apart from the usual 3 x 3 x 3 Rubik’s Cube‚ there’s a 2 x 2 x 2‚ 4 x 4 x 4‚ 5x 5 x 5‚ 6 x 6 x 6‚ 7 x 7 x 7 Rubik’s Cube as well. Heck‚ there’s even a pyramid and dodecahedron shaped Rubik’s Cube. However‚ if you can’t solve the regular Rubik’s cube‚ you might have a headache trying to solve the other Rubik’s

agar cubes Introduction: All cells are dependent on a processes called diffusion‚ which is the movement of a substance from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Cells need to obtain certain essential substances‚ like oxygen‚ for their survival. The rate of diffusion is said to be dependent upon the various factors: Size of molecules that have to diffuse‚ concentration gradient‚ the distance across which diffusion occurs‚ number of pores/openings‚ surface area and

Science Research Paper: “Potato Battery” I. Problem a. Main Problem This study aims to prove whether fruits and vegetables are good reserves of electricity. The potato‚ known for its high Phosphoric Acid and Sulfuric Acid‚ has been as our chosen fruit to prove and conduct our answers upon the accessibility of fruits and vegetables as an effective renewable energy source. b. Sub-Problems To further provide extra and specific information‚ the researchers have decided to add the following

Group 2 Science Investigatory Project I Title: Potato Battery II Objective: We only need a potato‚ a couple nails and a piece of wire to make a potato battery. It’s a fun science project that helps show the way things work in a battery by using everyday items we see around the house. The goal is to learn more about electricity‚ and possibly a few new science terms along the way. III Materials: * Two Potatoes * Two short pieces of heavy copper wire * Two common galvanized nails

The History of the Potato Chip One of the most recognizable snack foods is the potato chip. Who can resist this thin slice of potato‚ fried into a crisp then salted? Potato chips are delicious and very popular. They satisfy the taste buds of many by hitting all the essential characteristics of a good treat. They are convenient‚ easily found‚ salty‚ greasy‚ and come in a wide variety of flavors. It is hard to believe their invention was a mistake. When George Crum‚ a Native American chef in Saratoga
