    MEASUREMENTS IN SCIENCE Introduction: In this lab, a sample of metal and a sample of plastic were identified using their respective densities. Different materials have a unique density which is defined to be the amount of mass inside a specific volume of the material. The density does not change with the size or shape of the object, so it can be determined using any size sample of the material by dividing its mass by its volume. The mass of a material can be found easily using an electronic balance;

    In order to better understand this lab one must first understand about polymers and their monomer units. Polymers are substances containing a large number of structural units joined by the same type of linkage. The small molecules that make up these polymer chains are called monomers. Polymers in the natural world have been around since the beginning of time and are found many places in nature. Starch, cellulose, and rubber all possess polymeric properties. Cellulose and starch are actually polymers

    (Ke E 10,11) Explain, using a diagram, the use of Fractional Distillation in an Oil Refinery. How is this method used to help produce chemico-technical products (fuels,solvents, etc). Due to having different boiling points the substances in the crude oil can be separated if/by using fractional distillation. The crude oil is braked down and its steam condenses at different temperatures in the fractionating column. Every fraction contains hydrocarbon molecules with very similar numbers of carbon atoms

    Aquaponics is a combination of two words: Aquaculture and Hydroponics. Definition: It is the system that combines the conventional aquaculture with the hydroponics in a symbiotic environment.’ This is an age-old practice of plant cultivation utilizing the water from the aquaculture system where the by-products are broken down by the bacteria and utilized by plants as nutrients, and the water is then sent back to the aquaculture system. This works as a perfect symbiotic environment where the fish

    PHASE BEHAVIOR:- Melting Point:- The temperature at which polymer transmit into crystalline form to determine the melting point. The polymer of low-molecular substance exist very low melting point and this happened when polymer chain is dispersed. In physical state melting point is very difficult to calculate. Polymer will decompose at high temperature rather than melts. It is also known as crystalline melting temperature. Glass Transition
