“Which type of paper would best work in this experiment?” The first thing Ms. Trainer did was fill the cup with water. Next‚ she took a piece of sketchbook paper‚ and put it on the rim of the cup. Then‚ Ms. Trainer flipped the cup in one second. Lastly‚ the water did leak through the paper‚ after a couple of seconds. The hypothesis is that sketchbook paper can hold the water longer than origami paper. When the cup is flipped and the water is not leaking through the paper‚ it is due to the type

The purpose of this experiment is to present a test that helps experimenters determine if the participant either recollect the words presented in the experiment‚ or if the participant is just familiar with this words. The motivation for the participant to conduct this study is to identify the two brain structures that sub-function these structures. For instance‚ when a person is presented one of the words that are presented in this experiment‚ he or she would have to use the memory‚ in order to

Milgram set up this experiment at Yale University to test how much pain an ordinary citizen would inflict on another person just because an experimental scientist ordered him to. Virtually one thousand adults were observed in this experiment‚ and several different conditions were launched to find a limit to which the candidate would continue the order

Bread Mold Experiment By: Stephanie Westover PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment will be to determine how temperature affects the growth of mold on wheat bread. The researchers choose this topic because she thinks it will be beneficial to find a way to keep food from molding. Determining how long bread can be stored before molding can help save money‚ prevent illness and preserve freshness. The question the researcher will attempt to answer is how freezing

The Stanford Experiment Summary The Stanford Prison Experiment was an experiment to see what would be the psychological effect of becoming a prison guard or a prisoner. To do the experiment they set up a prison in the basement of Stanford’s Psychology Department Building. They used a sample of 24 students from the U.S. and Canada who were in the Stanford area and wanted to make $15 a day for participating in the study. To begin the experiment the boys were divided into two group half guards

American in the segregated times in America. Elliot’s goal was to have white people realize that we are all human being and we should not be treated as less just based off of our skin color or any other personal characteristics. Personally‚ I feel the experiment was essential‚ especially with that young age group. Racism is a learned behavior that was developed throughout the white society. When children at a young and growing age learn how it feels to be discriminated against‚ they most likely would not

Silver Mirror Experiment Background: This experiment was first conducted by Bernhard Tollens‚ it is used to determine whether a carbonyl containing compound is an aldehyde or a ketone. An aldehyde is a compound containing a formyl group (CHO).The experiment involves diamminesilver complex and a chemical reagent (also known as “Tollens’ reagent”) which in this case is glucose. In a successful experiment a reflective silver metal should precipitate‚ with characteristics identical to that of a mirror’

Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to see how exercising for a minimum of thirty minutes a day for at least four days a week altered vital capacity in people. Exercising for this amount was chosen to be studied because there have been many who have benefited from more exercise. The question to be answered was if this amount of exercise increased or decreased vital capacity. The hypothesis was vital capacity will increase in response to exercising for a minimum of thirty minutes a day

Becca DeHaven ChemC-125 Avogadro’s Law Experiment Report Introduction: The following experiment’s purpose was to confirm Avogadro’s Law and experimentally determine the Universal Gas Constant “R”. Amedeo Avogadro hypothesized that all gases of equal volume‚ temperature and pressure would contain equal amounts of moles. This idea that volume is directly proportional to moles sprung from other similar hypotheses. Robert Boyle found that pressure and volume are inversely proportional‚ meaning as pressure
