local landscape‚ which is most prominently seen from drilling and draining‚ or by adding mercury to the water through runoff from factory sites. These impacts ultimately cause the wetland to become destroyed and the wildlife population to be exposed to and affected by mercury. This causes a change in Florida’s flooding patterns and the possibility of decreased biodiversity or the potential for humans to obtain mercury poisoning by ingesting an infected fish. To prevent further destruction to this local

First step we separated and for lead we used the filtrate with a concentration of HCl to create a change in equilibrium‚ for silver we use a higher concentration because the solubility of silver is lower than lead. For mercury we used a base because it precipitated in a basic solution. When adding and removing the reagents we shifted the reaction and equilibriums and we got our

Experiment 2: Laboratory Techniques and Measurements Course Number: CHE 111 Abstract: This experiment introduced the student to lab techniques and measurements. It started with measuring length. An example of this would be the length of a nickel‚ which is 2cm. The next part of the experiment was measuring temperature. I found that water boils around 95ºC at 6600ft. Ice also has a significant effect on the temperature of water from the tap. Ice dropped the temperature about 15ºC. Volumetric
