presentation entitled "The Environmental Impacts of Chemical Deicers and Road Salt". I was required to attend this presentation for my Environmental Issues class as well. The presentation was approximately 25 minutes long and included a powerpoint presentation. In the presentation itself‚ it stated the impacts of road salts and deicers‚ the state uses on the roadways during the winter months. The most commonly used road salt is sodium chloride‚ which is also the most inexpensive and readily available

Separation of a Mixture of Solids My Flow Chart First remove iron filings with magnet since this is the only substance in the mixture that it is magnetic and will be attracted to a magnet. Second remove the sand by adding the mixture to hot water‚ which the other two substances are soluble. Third remove the benzoic acid since this is less soluble in cold than salt by cooling the mixture in the heated water. This will then leave the table salt behind in the water as the last substance.

LAB 4 – SEPARATION OF A MIXTURE OF SOLIDS Purpose: To determine and execute the separation of mixture of solids through different means. Examples are magnetisms‚ evaporation‚ and filtration. Observations and Experimental Data: Data Table 1: Experiment Data Grams Percent of mixture Iron filings 1.4 g 31.1 % Sand 1.3g 28.9 % Table salt 1.0g 22.2% Benzoic acid .8g 17.8 % Total 4.5g 100% Questions: A.

battery my salt water battery has the three main components‚ the electrolyte (in case you didn’t know its like a liquid that conducts th electric current (I hope I spelt that right))‚ a cathode (the negative electrode) and the an anode (the positive electrode). As you may or may not know a chemical reaction must occur so that that chemical energy can be converted into electrical energy which is then used for whatever. In my salt water battery the electric current passes through the salt water which

LS Separation of Mixtures and Solids Purpose: To become familiar with the separation of mixtures of solids Hypothesis: I will be able to separate the materials using a variety of different methods. First‚ separate the iron fillings using a magnet. Second‚ I will put the rest of the solution into water and separate the insoluble sand from the soluble salt and benzoic acid. Third‚ I will filter out the benzoic acid when crystalized. Lastly‚ I will evaporate the water away leaving crystallized

Salt Pollution As awareness for pollution increases‚ other forms of pollution are defined. Almost everyone knows about toxic waste and carbon dioxide pollution‚ but not many people have heard of salt pollution. Salt pollution has been on the increase since the evolution of the automobile. With more pressure on government agencies to keep the highway clear and safe‚ an increase in the use of salt has developed. It is important to understand why salt is used and how it work as well as the environmental

Modeling Effective Dose: Salt Tasting lab Purpose The purpose of this lab is to see at what measurements (of salt) can the salt be detected by taste. Abstract The science of toxicology is based on the principle that there is a relationship between a toxic reaction (the response) and the amount of poison received (the dose). An important assumption in this relationship is that there is almost always a dose below which no response occurs or can be measured. A second assumption is that once a maximum
