    In order for any plants to grow you need water. Water is essential for any and all life to be sustainable. Water itself is made up of hydrogen and oxygen. This happens through chemical processes in which two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom in order to fulfill a complete outer energy shell. When the process is completed water is formed. Water is found all around you. It 's in lakes, river, streams, oceans and even in canals. Water makes up 70% of the world. 2% of it is frozen at the poles

    temperature. Through observation with my microscope, I found an organism that existed in both of my samples and focused my studies on it. I used a heat lamp to raise the temperature of the water to 30°C in my experimental group, and I observed and estimated the rate of motion of the organism at each 2°C interval as the temperature decreased after removal from the heat lamp. I then used ice water to help my experimental group decline in temperature from 25°C to 20°C, and continued to observe and record rate

    According to the manufacturer, the type of SiC particles is green hexagonal, which means they are of the type α-SiC. Therefore, I think we need to look at the properties for this type of SiC only. Before this, for choosing the value of CTE for SiC, I used the room temperature values declared on Table 3 of the 1997 publication by R.G. Munro, which is attached to this message. For room temperature the value 1.1 and for 500°C the value 4.4 is given. I noticed that for all other experimental CTEs as

    Heat is a type of energy. Heat exists in everyday life. The Universe is made up of matter and energy. Matter is made up of atoms and molecules (groupings of atoms) and energy causes the atoms and molecules to always be in motion - either bumping into each other or vibrating back and forth. The faster motion of atoms and molecules creates a form of energy called heat or thermal energy which is present in all matter (Cool Cosmos, n.d., parra.1). Heat is the transfer of energy from a hot temperature

    Thermochemistry Lab Purpose: This lab taught procedures for determining heat of capacity of a calorimeter and measuring enthalpy of change for three reactions. It also enforced methods of analyzing data obtained through experimentation and calculating enthalpy. These procedures are used in the branch of thermodynamics known as thermochemistry which is the study of energy changes that accompany chemical reactions. Concepts from this lab can be used to determine the potential energy of a chemical

    This value lets you know how well the glass reflects the sun and prevents heat gain. A low rating means a lower amount of heating from the sun occurs through the window. Lower is better if your primary concern is keeping a room cool. If you want to heat the room with the sun, then higher would be better. Another rating you may find on the window is for Visible Transmittance. This value indicates how much natural
