How Healthy is the Conodoguinet Creek? Acid rain and Eutrophication are the two main pollution in Central Pennsylvania. Acid rain is a bad type of rain whiles eutrophication is the process where water bodies receive excess nutrients. Our mission here is to determine whether the Conodoguinet Creek is polluted or not. My hypothesis before the experiments was if there was to be signs of acid rain and eutrophication‚ then it means the Creek is polluted We went to the creek

Hydroxide (NaOH) by titrating it with Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) and to identify any possible sources of error. A colour change from pink to yellow signified the end of each individual titre as the NaOH had been neutralised. Experimental: Method: Firstly two solutions were prepared to show the colour of the Phenol Red indicator in acid and alkaline conditions. These colours were then used to determine the end point of each titre. In the experiment 0.100M HCl (acid) was added‚ from a burette‚ to a solution of

Acetic acid‚ a pungent smelling colourless liquid having sour taste‚ used very commonly in the chemistry laboratories. It got its name from Latin word Acetum‚ which means vinegar. Pure acetic acid is also called glacial acetic acid‚ because in winters it freezes easily as temperature goes below 16-17°C. Therefore it looks like as if a small glacier is there in the bottle‚ hence called glacial acetic acid. Laboratory and daily life uses of acetic acid are: (i) Acetic acid is used in household kitchens

The causes of acid rain are because of the emissions of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere. This is a result of pollution; sulphur dioxide primarily the result of industrialisation and coal fired power stations‚ and nitrogen oxides produced mainly due to car exhaust fumes. These either form wet or dry deposition‚ and the effects we can see today. It could be argued that once that the human race has used up all of the planets coal reserves‚ the problem of acid rain would disappear

Another reason why this is a strong acid is that its conjugate base has strong resonance stabilization

“Denaturation of Proteins” Denaturation is a process in which proteins or nucleic acids lose the tertiary structure and secondary structure which is present in their native state‚ by application of some external stress or compound such as a strong acid or base‚ a concentrated inorganic salt‚ an organic solvent (e.g.‚ alcohol or chloroform)‚ or heat. If proteins in a living cell are denatured‚ this results in disruption of cell activity and possibly cell death. Denatured proteins can exhibit

Case Study: Newsflash! Transport Proteins on Strike! 1. What is the meaning behind the PHOSPHOLIPIDS’ chant? Phospholipids make up most of the cell membrane‚ in a phospholipid bilayer. Phospholipid molecules form two layers‚ with the hydrophilic (water loving) head facing the extracellular fluid and the cytosol (intracellular) fluid‚ and the hydrophobic (not water loving) tails facing one another. The cell membrane is constructed in such a way that it is semipermeable‚ and allows oxygen
