Rate Of Reaction Bunsen Burner
1,230 words
Investigate A Factor Which Affects the Rate Of
Fermentation Of Yeast This experiment is
investigating one of the factors which affects the
rate of fermentation of yeast. Several factors
affect the rate of reaction: 61656; Increasing
the concentration. (See the lock and key theory. )
If the substrate (glucose) is increased, then
there would be more keys for the locks, therefore
an increase in reactant concentration leads to an
increase in reaction rate. 61656; The surface
area, the bigger t...

Current Efforts to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emission
/ Global Warming Global warming is the issue of
the day. According to the foreign researchers, the
emissions by industrialized countries of the
greenhouse gas related to the global warming shows
a dangerous upward trend despite the efforts to
reduce emission and to control global warming.
According to the report, despite the overall level
of emissions reduced 3. 3 % during 1990 - 2004,
this reduction mostly occurred due to the 36. 8 %
decline in ...

Global Warming (1) The problem of Global warming
is considered one of the most troubling issues of
contemporary era. It has been noticed that the
average air temperature in different parts of the
world is being on constant rise, ever since
humanity's existence began to depend more and more
on exploitation of fossil fuels. Whereas in 1870,
the carbon fuel emissions in the air were almost
non-existent, in 2000, the amount of such
emissions has reached 6 billion tons. Many
scientists agree that it ...

Eng 102 December 4, 2000 Pollution Since the
beginning of the 20 th century, environmentalists
have been warning the world about polluting the
earth and its consequences. While many countries
have seriously attempted to reduce their pollution
emission, others instead seem to be more concern
about economic growth and production output.
Therefore, pollution has been increasing since
then. However, pollution must be reduced,
otherwise life on earth will soon extinguish. Air
pollution is one of the ...

Is it hot in here, or is it just me? That? s the
question young Billy asked himself one
excruciatingly hot day. The air was thick with
humidity and the sweat poured off him like the
rain of a heavy spring downpour as he delivered
his mid-day papers in his hometown of Seattle.
Normally, he would not have thought twice about
this kind of heat. Normally, it isn? t 90 degrees
in April. This isn? t a far-fetched idea cooked up
by a lone scientist pouring over minute data. This
could be a reality. The...

Greenhouse Gases Infrared Radiation
431 words
Greenhouse Effect Greenhouse Effect, term for the
role the atmosphere plays in insulating and
warming the earths surface. The atmosphere is
pretty much transparent to incoming solar
radiation. When this radiation strikes the earths
surface, some of it is absorbed, warming the
earths surface. Earth s surface emits some of this
energy back out in the form of infrared radiation.
As this infrared radiation travels through the
atmosphere, most of it is absorbed by atmospheric
gases like carbon dioxid...

H 2 O Carbon Dioxide

Photosynthesis Photosynthesis means putting
together with light. This takes place in
chloroplasts, which have chlorophyll in them.
Chlorophyll absorbs the sunlight. From sunlight,
green plants combine carbon dioxide and water to
make sugar and oxygen. Green plants use sugar to
make starch, fats and proteins. These are tiny
pores called stomata. Stomata are plant spores,
which enable gas exchanges to take, place, and
water to vapor to be lost. This has the benefit of
moving water up the plane in ...
