    Hot Air Balloon Analysis In the duration of this project there were many factors that needed to be kept into consideration. The most important was the laws of gas, because the hot air balloon needed to be be constructed enough to withstand the air and have enough room for the hot air particles to move making the balloon have a successful flight. Due to the hot air particles move as a faster rate making then collide to each other which causes the balloon to have enough energy to take flight. While actually launching the ballon I began to see the balloon that did take flight and those who did not.

    Title: THE BALLOON INFLATION REACTION Introduction: Chemistry is one thing that makes us understand and gives us reasons of why certain reactions gives certain results. In this experiment we will be illustrating the reaction between baking powder and vinegar and see what happens to the balloon that is attached to it. Hypothetically the reaction of the vinegar and baking powder will produce carbon dioxide which will inflate the balloon. If the more vinegar may happen that when more vinegar is added to the baking powder it may produce more carbon dioxide thus the balloons diameter increases.

  • Aluminum Synthesis Lab Report

    1201 Words  | 5 Pages

    Introduction Aluminum is a significant good in modern society due to its many uses in commercial goods. Because aluminum is consumed so rapidly, it becomes somewhat expensive to extract it from its original source. In recent years, there has been a push toward the recycling of aluminum through electrolytic reactions resulting in significant decreases in cost and aluminum production. Materials and Methods Using a scoopula 1.2141 grams of aluminum can pieces were weighted on an analytical balance and placed inside a 250mL beaker. On end of a rubber cord was then connected to the aspirator (located on the lab table) while the other end was connected to a funnel, functioning as a fume hood.

    There are two main causes of climate change: natural causes and human causes. Natural causes that influence climate change include volcanic eruptions, ocean current, earth orbital changes, and solar variations. Those natural causes contribute small part of climate change; however, the biggest part in climate change is caused by human. The spectacular increase of human population, contribute significantly to the climate change. There are more than 7 billion people live in the world now, compared to about 3 billion people in late 1960s.
