and Nitrate on Pond Water By Claudia Phillips September 6‚ 2014 Block Two INTRODUCTION This lab was designed to study and observe the effects of phosphate and nitrate applied to pond water (1). Phosphorous‚ commonly used in fertilizers‚ is a necessary and vital element for life but can enhance the effects of eutrophication (the over-enrichment of nutrients in water) (2). Nitrate is a common source of food for most algae‚ but too much can make living conditions in water harsh (3). They

In conclusion‚ after conducting the lab‚ the emergent properties of water were tested and proved. These trials and experiments were able to verify the adhesion‚ cohesion‚ polarity‚ temperature stabilization‚ solvency‚ and density changes exhibited by water. During the glass and wax paper lab‚ we observed the adhesive properties of water. When a droplet of water touched the glass‚ it dispersed immediately. The droplet placed on the wax paper remained intact and in droplet form. Also‚ when the

Pond Water Paper DIRECTIONS STYLE TENSE: In all sections of the paper‚ present tense should be used to report background that is already established. For example‚ "The cell membrane is the barrier which separates the inside of the cell from the outside." Use future tense for work that you will do. For example‚ "This experiment will test the hypothesis that some anti-microbial agents can permeate the cell membrane during division to inhibit growth." Use past tense to describe the methods (what

By: Brittany Bolling April‚ 28th 2011 Dr. Woolnough BIO 101 DO6A ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to observe and understand what occurs in a sample of pond water over the course of six weeks. Over the six weeks there were qualitative and quantitative data found and recorded. The qualitative data recorded entailed: Water color and smell as well as suspended solids ranging from clear‚ opaque‚ and turbid. The quantitative data that was recorded regarded: Temperature‚ pH‚ Alkalinity‚ Hardness

So I took a jar then scooped it up from the muskiest part of the pond. After collecting the sample we placed the sample in a glass jar in the Biology lab at Mid Michigan Community College by a window and then it was sealed with oxygen holes. We would be

Or what makes a pond different from a lake? A pond is a body of standing water either natural or man made‚ that is usually smaller than a lake. Ponds contain amazing biodiversity‚ providing an environment for birds‚ fish‚ amphibians‚ alages‚ protists‚ and many many more organisms. A pond is normally much shallower

Aim: Observing pond water. Materials: Microscope‚ slide of pond water‚ protests/monera handouts. Procedure: 1. Collect microscope from trolley. 2. Set up microscope and switch on the microscope light. 3. Collect specimen and handouts. 4. Sketch 4-6 different species on medium power setting. 5. Try to estimate size of cells. Observations: I noticed that there was a lot of activity on the slide. There were many little circle-shaped things that were moving quickly all over the slide. I saw a

Conclusion 1: In this first lab we attempted to discover which of the materials given to us were hydrates by heating them and then dissolving them in water. Our results showed that all of our substances were hydrates besides the sucrose‚ sucrose if the only one which did not both bring condensation when heated and dissolve in water‚ which agreed with our hypothesis because we also thought that sucrose was going to be the only one that wasn’t a hydrate. The only error that we may have encountered

Lab Conclusion on Density In the lab of measuring density‚ precision and accuracy are very key components. Precision is the exactness of a measurement or good technique. Now accuracy is the value that we measured compared to the true value that the book has. Precision and accuracy are important because you need to have good technique and have your value close to the true value to minimize the error analysis. If you do these steps correctly you are a good chemist but if you do them poorly they
