One of the hardest parts of cleaning your glass shower doors is removing the soap scum that can accumulate on them. Soap scum can quickly build up on your shower door and give it a dirty frosted look instead of a clean and clear look. Here are three simple methods using products that you have around your home that will help you remove the soap scum from your glass shower doors. Method #1: Vinegar Vinegar is a very strong cleaning agent and has quite a strong scent that accompanies it as well. Due
Introduction Fracking is a procedure that uses high-pressure fluids to obtain shale gas through the drilling of underground rocks. According to Broderick et all (2011), shale gas1 is found trapped within the shale2 formations, it is a very flexible substance as it has a wide range of uses, such as automobile fuels, domestic use and power generation. Nowadays, the gas demand is increasing vastly. Shale gas is one of the main sources of energy for some countries, such as United States of America
Spiral Separator Lab 4 Materials: The equipment and materials used are as follows: Scale PPE Spiral Separator Magnetite/Silica samples Introduction: Wet spiral separators are devices utilized to separate solid components in slurry. The slurry must contain constituents based upon a combination of a solid’s particle density and the particle's hydrodynamic properties. The device consists of a spiral tower with a sluice wrapped around from which slots or channels are placed in the base of the
Density is how much mass is in a certain volume. You can calculate density by dividing mass by volume. Water's density depends on its temperature and salinity. Cold water with a high salinity is more dense than warm water with a low salinity. Some connections to density are layers of the ocean, how things float, and the conveyor belt system. They are found in the units climate and weather, properties of water, and oceanography. Density is very important because it affects the layers of the ocean
Franklin was dreaming of a frozen ride to immortality” (Schaer). Cryonic suspension requires that the body's temperature be lowered to -196 degrees Celsius or the same as liquid nitrogen. Then the body or head is stored in a dewar, which is like a thermos, and put into cold storage. “This flask is continuously being filled with liquid nitrogen because the nitrogen is evaporating continuously to keep the temperature low” (Cryonic). The cryonic medical team will only reanimate the patients when the cure
The Molten Core Theory The center of the Earth is composed of a solid metallic core surrounded by a molten layer of liquid metal. This paper will discuss the reasons to believe the theory that the Earth has a molten core, and the important discoveries that have led to this generally accepted theory. It is very reasonable to agree with this theory when paying credence to the logical evidence that answers questions about the Earth’s core. This evidence includes information about the elemental
separately or in chemical combination with fuel. Rockets are propelled forward by gas or liquid being expelled backwards. Rockets work on a fundamental law of motion by Sir Isaac Newton that states, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This helps explain how rockets fly on earth and in space. For example, the rocket fuel is exploded in a controlled way so that the exhaust gas or liquid is sent streaming down out the rocket nozzle and causing the rocket to accelerate up. Rockets
Wettability can be defined as the extent of intimate contact between liquid and solid. Many factors may affect the wettability like melting temperature, pre heating temperature, reinforcement material, amount, size, stirring speed, stirring time etc. Poor wettability can deteriorate the mechanical properties, wear resistance as well as corrosion resistance of the material. For better load transfer, the wettability of particle should be high (Prabu et al., 2006). (Hashim et al., 1999) concluded that
On earth, substances tend to exist in one of three phases; either a solid, liquid, or gas. While solids and liquids have defining factors such as volume, and for solids only, a shape, gases exhibit neither of these. Gases naturally take the shape of and expand into the volume of the container, and change when placed in different surroundings. As gases are constantly moving around and colliding with the walls, they exert a force, or pressure, on the walls of its container. Pressure is one of the characteristic
In this lab, lab 4.3 Comparing the Concentrations of Saturated Solutions, we set out to find and compare the solubilities of two solids in water. In addition, we tested if solubility is a characteristic property of a solid in a given liquid. This lab allowed us to test and use a reliable way to measure the solubility of a solid. This lab can be replicated for any solid with the same procedure, thus it gives us a method to calculate solubility. The two solids we tested in this experiment were NaCl
Action Design Background Information: Capillary Action is the ability of a liquid to flow through a narrow space without the assistance of external forces such as gravity. It occurs because of intermolecular forces between the liquid and surrounding surfaces. There are three main variables that determine whether a liquid will posses capillary action. (Davis, 1995) 1. Cohesive Force: The intermolecular forces that cause liquids to resist separation and to remain a certain shape. This exists between
In this world, most materials that are known to man are classified to be in either solids, liquids, or gases states. However, liquids and gases can also be classified into one common state which is fluid state or fluids (Smits, 2000). Fluids is one of the most important elements in our lives. The water we drink, the air that we breathe, the rivers that flows, the oil that we use are all fluids. Fluids, as mentioned by Munson, Young, Okiishi, and Huebsch (2010), is defined as “a substance that deforms

Jenna Peters The Effect of Mint on Your Body Temperature The Effect of Mint on Your Body Temperature Do you know how mint effects your body temperature? Does the ingestion of mint lower or raise your body temperature? Through a series of investigations it is the intent of this report to investigate if mint, in the form of mint oil or artificial flavoring and cooling agents will lower your body temperature. Mint can come in many forms and is used in a variety of different products. The more
Solubility of Potassium Chlorate Solubility is the maximum amount of solid that will dissolve in 100g of solvent. The solubility of a substance depends on the type of ionic particles in it. So the solubility of each substance is different. The formula of solubility is: SOLUBILITY(g/100g)= (SOLUTE / SOLVENT) * 100 I did an experiment to prove this and find the solubility of potassium chlorate, an ionic solid. Apparatus: 2g potassium chlorates, some distilled water, a stand, a
Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) means systematic caring, inspecting, and servicing of military equipment to keep it in good condition and to prevent breakdowns. The operator of the vehicle mission is to be sure to perform PMCS each time he/she operate the vehicle. Always do the PMCS in the same order, so it gets to be a habit. Once you've had some practice, you will quickly spot anything wrong. There are three types of Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS) that the
Measuring the Viscosity of a Liquid Aim The aim of this experiment is to find out how fluid Bath Oils really are by measuring its viscosity. Plan The first thing that I'll do is to measure the spheres volume by first measuring its radius. I will then, by calculating the spheres mass, be able to calculate the density of the sphere. This will be used later when calculating the viscosity of the bath oil. I will then find the density of the bath oil, also used during calculations later
to large spaces. In a liquid form, water has no such spaces; so ice is less dense and will float on liquid water. If not for this, great bodies of water would freeze from the bottom up without the insulation of a top layer of ice and all life in the water would die. The water molecule is a very small one but because of its unique properties it behaves like a larger one. The bonds between water molecules are so strong that water resists changes in its state (Solid, liquid, gas); thus water has
