In the Midwestern region of the United States, there is a town called Plymouth in the state of Wisconsin. It is a small welcoming town with one road running down the middle, invokes the feeling of home. At night, the street lights glow along the sidewalks; the houses along the road are inviting with landscaped yards, large wicker wreaths on doors and the warmth of families gathering around the table for dinner. In the corner of Plymouth sits a park, Meyers Park is nestled between the rolling farm

For how long should I infuse the water? A good rule of thumb is to infuse for 1-2 hours at room temperature or in the fridge for 3-4 hours. You can infuse the water overnight in the fridge. After infusing overnight removing the infused fruits from the water will prevent the fruit from decomposing. You can then store the infused water in the fridge for up to 3 days. How long do infused waters last? Drink un-refrigerated infused waters the same day as infusing. You can drink your refrigerated infused

natural instinct to “salt” the driveway every winter after it snows. A good example would be last year’s ice storms, in which salt was sold out everywhere. But how does salt work? Is it detrimental to the environment? And if so, how can we make our roads and sidewalks safe to commute on, while still being friendly to the environment? Salt uses some basic laws of chemistry to break down accumulation of ice. As you know, salt is an ionic compound, Sodium Chloride. According to intermolecular forces, ionic

This article explains how fog is produced when dry ice and water react. One might think that the fog is made by water in the atmosphere but Kuntzleman questioned this common thought’s validity and explored dry-ice + water=fog at the molecular level. His first step was to accurately measure fog density by using the following equation: fog density= -log (I/I_0 ) with “I_0 being the intensity of incident light and I being the intensity of light that travels through the fog” (Kuntzleman, 644). This

Lucy was a little curly-haired girl, she was usually well behaved but sometimes her desire to discover new things got the best of her. She had a large house out in the country and lots of clothes and toys, this was mainly because her parents were always working. Although Lucy had a wonderful nanny who was always available to play with her and attend to her every need, she wished she had a real companion. One day,on her parent’s day off, Lucy and her mom and dad decided to go out and do some shopping

Did the solid Ice Cream Formation Change Based on Type of Salt Use? Purpose The purpose of the lab was to identify how the different types of salt applied to ice effect the amount of solid ice cream formed. Background Research Ice cream is a solution with a lower freezing point than H2O therefor regular ice cannot lower the temperature enough for solid product to form (Science Matters). Lowering the temperature farther is the job of salt. NaCl (salt) will dissolve in water (or ice in this case) to

hypothesis was that ice will melt faster on metal materials, and slower on other surfaces like wood cutting boards or plastic. My group’s data supported this hypothesis, because the ice cubes put on the metal surface melted much faster than on wood or plastic. The only variable that changed during the experiment was the material on which the ice melted. Other potential variables that my group attempted to avoid changing were the size of the ice cube, keeping the ice cubes identical, how the ice cube is stationed

water freezes fasters to make ice cubes. Maria’s hypothesis for this experiment is that the cold water will freeze faster, she thinks this is correct because the hot water molecules move faster than the cold water molecules, causing the hot water to take longer to freeze. To make the results of the experiment valid four variables to take into account are if the freezer is the same temperature for both tests, the water is the same water just different temperatures, the ice cube trays are the same size

At what temperature will a glass of ice melt faster, 74 °F or 90°F? This experiment was designed to test the hypothesis that a glass of ice will melt quicker when left in higher temperatures. The purpose of this assignment is to determine where a glass of ice should be stored so that the ice will melt at the slowest rate. A student carefully set up this experiment with two identical glasses each containing three ice cubes of equal size and shape. The student then placed one of these glasses in a

of ice crystals. When a snowflakes form they can only have 3,6, or 12 sides never 5 or 8 according to the article Fake Flakes.Lets explore what snowflakes look like after they have formed.
