of ice affects its melting rate. Ice melts by taking in energy from its surroundings to form heat. This makes the molecules in the ice cube vibrate. As the overall vibration increases‚ the water molecules split from each other turning the ice from a frozen state to a liquid state. Heat can be absorbs in two different ways‚ through direct contact with a hot surface or through radiation of a hot surface nearby. Radiant heat can be contributed by sunlight‚ fires and even a warm room temperature. Colours

Chemical reactions can happen slowly or fast. The speed of the reaction rate can be changed. Some of the factors that can 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 graph shows that the respiration rate does increase as the yeast concentration rises‚ but levels off and eventually reached its saturation point‚ or decline‚ which occurs at 8.5g. This decline may occur because there are too many yeast molecules in comparison to the glucose‚ which may lead to yeast cells hindering a collision thus lessening the reaction. The respiration rate increases as more yeast is added because it gives more opportunities for molecular collisions and so the amount of successful

To investigate the habitats woodlice prefer is dark condition or wet condition 1. Use a shoebox and place some soil and dry leaves in it. Start looking under rocks or bricks for some woodlice and place them in the shoebox. Make sure the soil is placed enough and evenly to keep the woodlice happy when not under investigation. * 25 woodlice were used for the experiment because the more woodlice used increases the statistics of which condition the woodlice prefer and give a more accurate data

2 Angles make a difference Aim The aim of this experiment is to test whether the angle of sunlight affects the surface temperature on earth. Hypothesis I believe Block B will receive more sunlight than Block A‚ because the lamp shines directly onto Block B. Materials * * Lamp * 2 thermometers * 2 blocks of wood * Black plastic tape Procedure 1. Cut out two small identically sized pieces of black tape and attach onto wooden blocks so that they make pockets. 2.

My final device was simple‚ yet effective. It consisted of a straw pyramid in a bag of popcorn. Two of the main restrictions for this project were mass and size. The bag that i put my materials in was within the size limit. The mass of popcorn and straws is very little. Popcorn can also absorb a lot of shock‚ stress‚ and kinetic energy. Straws absorb energy as well. So I decided to use those two materials. First‚ I put the egg directly into a pyramid of straws. Putting the egg in the pyramid instead

How does water temperature affect the amount of dissolved oxygen? Ⅰ. Introduction Dissolved oxygen is just one of the many ways to measure water quality. It means the volume of oxygen that is contained in water. The amount of dissolved oxygen in water usually determines the quantity of organisms living in that water. Dissolved oxygen levels vary by how much oxygen the water can hold‚ how much oxygen is produced by photosynthesis‚ and how much oxygen is consumed by respiration. If water is too warm

One can predict that the tube with the highest concentration of yeast will produce the most carbon dioxide and will have the fastest rate of alcoholic fermentation. Results Two separate experiments were conducted to determine the effect of yeast concentration and pH level on the rate of fermentation. The first experiment involved the placement of different concentrations of yeast‚ glucose‚ and distilled water in four different tubes. Pipette pumps were

Photography had so much more of an influence on the Impressionist movement than just photography in its own right. Photography influenced artists in their paintings‚ in their pastel works‚ in their sculpture and in seeing the world around them in a different way. Modern artists were influenced by the invention of the camera because it gave them a cropped composition and showed the tonal effects of light and dark in much finer detail than they could interpret with the naked eye. This technology made

I predict that as I increase the temperature‚ the distance moved by the meniscus will also increase. I believe this will happen as aerobic respiration is taking place. This is respiration involving the consumption of oxygen gas‚ producing carbon dioxide and water‚ as shown below. C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36ATP This process allows energy to be produced in the form of ATP‚ Adenosine Triose Phosphate. This occurs by converting glucose into pyruvate via glycolysis. Pyruvate is then transported
