Benassi Lesson 13: Water Chemistry and Water Quality 35a. There is cohesion force between the water and oil molecules that allows the two substances to not mix, water molecules cling closer together, that their hydrogen bond cannot be penetrated by the oil until shaken together. When a oil spill occurs the oil will float on top of water, making it easier to skim or suck away from the water molecules. b. Since water is denser than oil, it sinks to the bottom the oil and water mixture, therefore

A gunshot stirred the sleeping cat, jerking him awake. His unpleasant dream, filled him with horror as he recalled the smell of burning firewood, boiling water, and the cruel laughter. His senses came back to him as he found himself hanging from a log, upside down, his legs tied together. Battered and bruised, the cat tried to remember why he was hanging on a piece of wood. As the cat’s memory came back slowly, he remembered himself fighting men, trying to escape their firm grip. One of the big

pollution is a very serious problem. It begins with a simple statement: Whatever you throw in water, will not just dissolve away. This is true with all forms of pollution, they don 't just vaporize with the current. Many people think that, and that’s why they

one thing in common, they all consume fossil fuels and the whole world has become dependent on this type of transportation to move around town. The fuel that runs these automobiles comes from a nonrenewable fossil fuel source. Heating that pan of water to boil pasta or to run a hot bath requires energy that can be generated from either natural gas or coal, depending on what part of the country somebody is in. Natural gas and coal are derived from nonrenewable fossil fuel sources. Each source is mined

It also means more runoff, more percolation and more water erosion. They all help to determine the kind of soils in an area. Relief: This refers to the landscape position and the slopes it has. Steep, long slopes mean water will run down faster and potentially erode the surfaces of slopes. The effect will be poor soils on the slopes, and richer deposits at the foot of the slopes. Also

which have obtained a certain amount of kinetic energy and are able to escape into a gaseous phase. Do different liquids evaporate at different rates? That is my question for the science fair. I will be testing all different kinds of liquids like water, milk, soda, etc. What I 've learned from exploring this topic is that if the liquids do evaporate at different rates it may be something to do with their boiling point. Different liquids have different boiling points because of the molecular forces

the process of pumping a mix of water, sand, and chemicals at high pressure to make openings in shale that contain natural gas. The fracking process allows natural gas to be obtained, but at a cost. The use of toxic chemicals can affect the surrounding environment and contaminant water sources. Current regulations have not kept up with the drilling industry. Regulations for fracking should be improved to protect against the use of toxic chemicals, contaminating water sources, and to limit strains on

The purpose of assignment one is to gain practical skills and knowledge of formatting. With regards to plots and tables, I will learn the proper way of designing them to fit the specific formatting needs. This will greatly assist me when I write technical lab reports for this class and in industry. It is essential to be able to thoroughly and completely follow directions in order to maintain a good standing with an employer or a professor. Not only is being able to format a great skill to have and

Introduction Oil spills are a major form of pollution, they are a result of human negligence, natural disasters, or defects in pipelines. Oil spills deposit crude oil, which is composed mainly of hydrocarbons, or distilled products such as gasoline, kerosene, or diesel fuels into different environments. There are four main types of crude oil spills that affect environments differently; Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D. If exposed, to Class A, Class B , or Class C, humans may experience toxic
