pockets or purses for a few pennies? All they have is just unwanted weight to their pockets and purses. Few people now a days still bend down to pick up a penny off the sidewalk. Whether its the superstions of “luck” or just another penny to add into their collection. Only traditions explain our stubborn attachment to our pennies. However‚ pennies should not be abolished‚ they are beneficial to us in every days life. For example‚ people who have thousands of pennies saved up from over the years

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the concentration of an unknown amount of copper sulfate using the spectronic 20. Four solutions of different concentrations of H₂O and CuSO₄ were put into the spectronic 20 to observe their absorption of light. Then‚ a graph was created to plot down the measurements. Using the calibration curve of the graph‚ the concentration of the unknown substance was found out to be .12M. Background/Introduction: Beer’s law (which states that

The concentration of the coloured complex can be determined with the spectrophotometer at Absorbance 540.The sugar concentration of unknown sample can then be read off a calibration curve(standard curve) created using known sugar concentrations.The dilutions of a solution of known concentration are used to determine

Whether made in business‚ politics‚ science‚ or sports‚ most decisions are judged as either right or wrong‚ ethical or unethical. Regardless of what an individual believes about a particular action‚ if society judges it to be unethical or wrong‚ whether correctly or not‚ that judgment directly affects the organization’s ability to achieve its business goals. For this reason alone‚ it is important to understand business ethics and recognize ethical issues. social responsibility‚ an organization’s

Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy Curtis M. Franklin Thursday‚ February 14‚ 2013 ABSTRACT An ice calorimetric measurement was used to determine that a reaction involving solid magnesium metal and 1.00M sulfuric acid produces an experimental a value of ∆H = -226 ± 28 kJ/mol at 0°C. This is about 48.4% lower than the expected value reported at 25°C. Introduction Many chemical reactions exhibit themselves by exchanging heat energy‚ either be absorbing

added the solution will quickly start to turn yellow due to formation of MnO2. If this happens anyway‚ add some more sulphuric acid to reverse the process. The solution should be clear with a slight green tinge.

9/15/14 Honors Chemistry Richardson Lab: Measuring the Density of Pennies Pre-Lab Questions: 1. The equation that relates density‚ mass‚ and volume is: density = mass / volume. 2. All substances have unique densities‚ so if you are able to find the density of a substance‚ you can properly identify it. 3. We measure irregular-shaped objects with the use of water displacement because it would be nearly impossible to get the exact measurements of items with irregular

EXPERIMENT : Iron in Breakfast Cereal by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy OBJECTIVES : 1) To determine the actual iron content of different brands of cereals 2) To compare the experimental results with the values listed on the manufacturer’s labels. INTRODUCTION : Iron is one of the important minerals that is required for our bodies to function properly. Most of the iron in our body is found in the blood such as haemoglobin‚ approximately 60 -70% of the human body’s iron is found

Penny Leventis Period 4 Decades project report 15 March 2012 Styles of the 1940s One of the most iconic eras for fashion was the 1940s. This decade combined practicality with simple and timeless elegance. However not much focus was on fashion during the forties due to World War II‚ which took place from 1939 to1945. The war brought hardship and lack of supplies such as fabrics. However after the war‚ style seemed to emerge once more. Due to the increase in population
