million residents. This means the demand for consumable water is high‚ and with this demand comes depletion. Many areas of the Central and West Coast Basins are experiencing ground water depletion‚ which has resulted in an intrusion of saltwater in coastal aquifers‚ “natural filters that trap sediment and other particles (like bacteria) and provide natural purification of the ground water flowing through them” (Idaho Museum of Natural History). The Water Replenishment District of Southern California has

experiment explores how salt and sugar affect the melting rate of ice in water. Research Questions: * Does adding salt to ice and water slow down‚ speed up‚ or not change the rate the ice melts in the water? * Is salt the only substance to have this effect? What about sugar? Knowing how to speed up the melting rate of ice is very important information for anyone who needs to de-ice roads or driveways after a winter storm. While it seems simple‚ adding salt to ice water actually activates two

Salt Water or Fresh Water‚ Which Would You Prefer? Many people wonder‚ what big differences are between salt water and fresh water? Is it just water with salt versus water without salt? Those are some common questions people have. Most people ask about the differences‚ but they forget about the similarities of salt water and fresh water‚ as well. Did you know that Salt water and fresh water have very different plant and animal life? There are also a few complex fish that can live in both

does the level of water not change when salt is dissolved in water? 7. How can matter change its state? 8. Define boiling. Why boiling is considered as bulk phenomenon? 9. Why does the temperature of a substance remain constant during melting and boiling even when heat is being supplied to it continuously? 10. What is evaporation? Why does evaporation cause cooling? 11. What are the differences between boiling and evaporation? 12. What factors affect the rate of evaporation?

Using a cooling glass of water to determine the area and volume of the curve formed. Research Question: To what extent can a cooling glass of water be modelled accurately and be used to find the area under the curve and volume formed by curve? Data Collection: In order to produce an exponentially decaying graph‚ I had to first heat a glass of water for a certain period of time {150 ml of water}. After the water was heated a temperature probe‚ connected to logger pro and laptop

The Affect of Water Temperature on Goldfish Breathing Rate Carlos Vega Vanessa Santamaria Rasa Hodges 9/12/2013 Introduction The main objective of our lab was to see how temperature affects the breathing patterns of an Ectothermic animal. Ectothermic is the same thing as cold-blooded. It means that the animal‚ in this case a goldfish (Carassius Aauratus)‚ does not produce its own heat internally so the animals temperature depends on the temperature of its surroundings. So

grow quickly‚ granted that they are planted and cared for correctly. The number one step in growing any plant is watering. Plants should be watered frequently‚ depending on the plants growing habits and needs. It is always best to learn how much water a plant needs before beginning to care for it. In the case of radishes‚ they should be watered plenty when the seeds are first being buried and then watered everyday while they are growing (“Growing Radishes”). Another essential part of growing a

Introduction: This project is one of the most famous electricity projects that can be performed successfully by most students in the age of 10 to 16. It helps students to learn about producing electrical energy using chemical energy. Since the same method is used to get energy from many fruits and chemicals‚ this project has many names. Following are some of the other names or titles for this project: |Fruit power or fruit battery
