Prepare a critical analysis of a quantitative study focusing on protection of human participants‚ data collection‚ data management and analysis‚ problem statement‚ and interpretation of findings. The quantitative research article can be from your previous literature review or a new peer-reviewed article. Each study analysis will be 1‚000-1‚250 words and submitted in one document. As with the assignments in Topics 1-3‚ this should connect to your identified practice problem of interest. Refer to

Abstract Chemically active extraction was used to separate two unknown compounds from each other and to determine what compound class each compound belongs. The solid unknown was purified by recrystallization and its melting point range was determined to be 109-111°C. The liquid unknown was purified by simple distillation and its boiling point was determined to be 95°C. An IR spectrum was collected for each of the purified compounds; the solid was determined to be 3-toluic acid and the liquid was

In the lab‚ the purpose was to standardize a KMnO4 solution than using it to evaluate how close a H2O2’s concentration was to its labeled concentration. In this lab‚ it was decided to compare the concentration of new Publix brand hydrogen peroxide to an old sample of the same solution. From the data collected in the first part by titrating a solution of FeSO4*7H2O with the KMnO4 solution‚ it was determined that the concentration was .028M MnO4-. This was able to be done because a known amount of

critique a qualitative study? Powers (2011a) states‚ “All scientific evidence is important to clinical decision making‚ and all evidence must be critically appraised to determine its contribution to that decision making” (p. 135). A qualitative study attempts to describe an experience from the participant’s perspective. Additionally‚ to enhance understanding‚ the objective of a qualitative study is to increase awareness of human experiences. Performing a critical appraisal of qualitative research requires

Experiment # 8 Qualitative Analysis of Cations Objectives Part I: Separate a mixture of known cations: Pb2+‚ Fe3+‚ Al3+‚ Cu2+‚ and Ca2+ into individual ions. Perform a series of tests to become familiar with reactions characteristic of each cation. Part II: Separate and identify individual cations in an unknown solution containing a mixture of up to five cations. Use information gathered in part I to identify the cations. Introduction Qualitative analysis is a general name for the process
