The Relationship Between Density and Sugar Content Danielle Shaub Partners: Emily Alexander, Bill Dempsey, Shayla Ho Lab Performed 03/11/15 & Lab Report 04/07/15 Abstract: Using solutions of sugar and water alongside cola, density and percent sugar can be related. The purpose of this lab is to discover how and with what benefit these factors can be related. Using assorted measurements and the standard curve of the calculated densities and percentages of sugar solutions, it was learned that cola

cold, sunny day. The solar radiation that is coming in warms up the inside of the car, but the solar energy that is going out is trapped inside the car’s closed windows. Greenhouse gases are the gases in the atmosphere that absorb radiation, such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. Out of all these greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide is the primary gas produced due to the combustion of fossil fuels from electricity, transportation, and industrial

The Clean Air Act (CAA) is a law that regulates air emissions from mobile and stationary sources. This law is comprehensive federal that authorize the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) establish National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) to protect people’s health and welfare and to regulate emissions of hazardous air pollutants (The United States Environmental Protection Agency EPA, 2015). The title I of the Clean Air Act (CAA) states the general requirements for states to submit Strategic

minerals break down or dissolve into smaller pieces and fragments. Erosion is then the transportation of weathering remains. This is done with the help of natural agents such as water, wind, animals..etc. It all depends on the composition of the rock, different agents such as temperature change and rainfall amount. Water for examples is the most common, like when it seeps in the pores of rocks, freezes overnight and

harsh on the environment has been going on ever since the United States has increased its use of this process to obtain more natural resources. Hydraulic fracturing is also directly correlated to having effects on drinking water. The process of fracking includes the injection of water containing other chemicals into the ground to extract natural resources that would otherwise be more difficult to obtain (Hydraulic Fracturing Overview, 2012). Although the process of fracking has resulted in an increase

Ah! A hot summer day and a cool can of soda. What could be better! But can you imagine my angst, when in spring break my Mom threw away all the Soda cans left over from the new year party. This got me thinking, so I challenged my mom and was chagrined when she said "Take a look at Berkeley, and why they passed the first Soda Tax in America" What follows is a chronicle of my 8 weeks of journey starting with scientific inquiry trysts in Cupertino library to meeting a Professor of nutrition at Stanford

have no access to water. You can’t shower, you can’t brush your teeth, and you can’t hydrate yourself as much as you want too anymore. Water isn’t something that we consider a luxurious product. Our lungs are made up of 90% water, our brains are made up of 70% water, and our blood is made up of more than 80% water. An average family of four uses 146,000 gallons of water per year. Put into simplest terms, we need water to function, and to stay healthy. While society knows that water is a limited resource

Title- How does the “Greenhouse Effect” affect the environment? Problem- There are several different kinds of gases produced from greenhouses into our environment and the atmosphere. Moreover, the percentages of those gases in our environment have been growing exponentially and the people of those environments need to be aware of these gases and how they help or harm the environment. Variables- Independent- The independent variables will have thirty plants with excess carbon dioxide. Dependent- The

and Sinai). These regions have a rainfall that feed the aquifer during the current dry climate. The groundwater source ranges between paleowater of the glacial wet climate to paleowater mixed with precipitation of warm and dry climates and/or Nile water, in addition to the modern groundwater of evaporated flash flood or precipitation in the shallow alluvial aquifers. Central Sudan, Eastern Desert and Sinai have a wide range of isotopic signatures reflecting paleowaters, mixing and modern groundwaters

The Freezing Of Water Mrs.Petit Period 4 This science fair project is important in ways that people should use to form certain things that could help people see that there is a better conservation of goods. This could help better the community by using different substances from housing areas then put them to use. The freezing point Is determined by how much of particles were broken down In the mixture. When its in freezing point the potential of that solution will be equal in both states.
