the atmosphere‚ surrounds our planet. It provides us with the air we breathe‚ and it protects us from the full blast of the sun’s radiation. Way up in the part of the atmosphere‚ called the stratosphere‚ a layer of gas filters out most of the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays. This layer of gas is called ozone and is located about five miles to 25 miles above the surface of the Earth. (Bright‚ 1991). Only about one-millionth of our atmosphere is made up of ozone. But it has a tremendously important

There are many different layers within the Earth. The core is at center of the Earth. The Earth’s core takes up sixteen percent of Earth’s volume‚ containing thirty-three percent of its Mass ..Pressure rises steadily inside the earth because of the weight of overlying rock. Therefore ‚the Pressure at the outer boundary of the core reaches 1.37 million atmospheres‚ 3.7 million Atmospheres. The core is made mostly of iron and nickel and possibly smaller amounts of lighter elements including sulfur

Research Question: What are the percent concentrations of Fe3+ ions by mass in fresh parsley and spinach leaves? Scientific Concept Colorimeter measures the absorbance of light by the chemical substances at a certain wavelength. By measuring the absorbance‚ the concentration of a chemical substance can be determined. For the calibration of the colorimeter‚ different concentrations of a standard solution and a control (distilled water) are prepared in cuvettes. These cuvettes are put into the colorimeter

With water and alcohol‚ we studied how the column chromatography would change‚ which happens to be how long it takes the compound takes to separate. We decided that alcohol would separate the compound faster than water because water is a little bit denser than alcohol. This fact can be validated
