...Color Changes 1. What three particles make up every atom? Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons make up every atom. 2. What are the major differences among the three particles that make up every atom? The three particles that make up every atom differs in the electrical charge and in mass while the proton and neutron possess the same mass. The neutron tends to be a tad heavier more like 2000 times more than the electron. The proton has a positive charge (+1). The neutron has no charge and the electron has a negative charge or -1. 3. What is the relationship between a photon and a quantum leap? A quantum is a discrete amount of energy that is carried by a photon. So in essence a quantum leap takes place when a photon carrying the right amount of energy is absorbed by the atom causing its electron to jump to a higher level. 4. Using the periodic table, determine the result of the following calculation: the number of electrons in the outer shell of a hydrogen atom minus the number of electrons in the outer shell of a helium atom plus the number of electrons in the outer shell of a hydrogen atom. Outer shell electrons in H: 1 (s shell half filled, only one electron) Outer shell electrons in He : 2 s shell is filled- is the outer shell?) so that would mean 1-2+1=0 5. When is an electron a valence electron? Why are valence electrons especially important in chemical reactions? An electron is considered a valence electron when it is on the very outside layer away from...

Why or why not ? How might this affect consumer attitudes toward the company and its products? Answer 1: I do not think that global firms like McDonald’s or General Mills should change the colors of the logo. Colors for global firms represent unique enterprise culture and brand. Although firms invest a lot of money to marketing do a great deal of research to determine greater color. Answer 2: Unified logo is necessary because it not only protects the brand, but prevents counterfeits. Also it helps company build their unified brand image in order to improve the popularity of an enterprise in costumer. As packaging I think do not have problem to firms to be in line with local marketing preference (change the color). Answer 3: It can make...

...Formal Lab Report The Effect of the Amount of Detergent on Algal Color Change After a factory that produces various types of phosphate containing products opened near a neighborhood, the residence began to notice a change in the rivers color. They noticed that a green film was covering areas of the river and some residents blamed pollution from the factory. This seemed like a reasonable claim since phosphates and nitrates are nutrients that increase algae growth and help cause blooms. So we decided to test if these claims could be true. We set up our experiment by setting up 7 cups, then we labeled them 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, and control. Next we filled each cup with 50ml of algae infused water. Now to act as runoff from the factory we put...

...Briggs-Rauscher Oscillating Color Change Reaction Introduction: The Briggs-Rauscher reaction, is one of the most common demonstrations of a chemical oscillator reaction. The reaction begins when three colorless solutions are mixed together. The color of the resulting mixture will oscillate between clear, amber, and deep blue for about 3-5 minutes. The solution ends up as a blue-black mixture. What we need: We need three different chemical solution. Solution A: Add 43 g potassium iodate (KIO3) to ~800 ml distilled water. Stir in 4.5 mL sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Continue stirring until the potassium iodate is dissolved. Dilute to 1 L. Solution B: Add 15.6 g malonic acid (HOOCCH2COOH) and 3.4 g manganese sulfate monohydrate (MnSO4 . H2O) to ~800 ml distilled water. Add 4 g of vitex starch. Stir until dissolved. Dilute to 1 L. Solution C: Dilute 400 mL of 30% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to 1 L. Then prepare all of each solution 300ml, 1L beaker, stirring plate, and magnetic stir bar.

However, I expect that items we consume as humans will be closer to the neutral range of the ph scale while items we use to clean around the house will be inversely proportional to the items we consume. I believe the household items will be on the extremes, either extremely basic or extremely acidic. Methods Items for experiment were purchased from the Commissary and the Nhetto. They include: 1 x .608 kg head of red Cabbage 2 x Melitta white coffee filters 1 x 12 oz coke 1x Tums antacid 1x Tilex Mold and Mildew Remover 1x 22oz bottle of Clorax bleach 1x bx of Arm and Hammer Baking Soda 1x toilet bowl cleaner 1x hohes C orange juice 750ml of tap water The following steps from the guide was followed (with changes from the instructor): 1. Using a standard cheese grater, I took the entire head of red cabbage and shredded it into small pieces. After shredding was complete the pile of cabbage was placed into a stainless steel cook pot. 2. In order to attempt to get the most accurate results I used my fish tank ph test to identify the ph level of my tap water. The result was my tap water is about a 7.8 (slightly higher than the 7.0 that is considered neutral). 3. I then measured out 750ml of tap water and added it to the pot where my cabbage was. 4. I then started boiling the cabbage while I assembled the 7 different substances including the coke and antacid as per the special instructions for this lab. 5. After 5 minutes I removed the cabbage from...

The Man o’ war The Portuguese man o’ war also has tendrils that are covered in venom-filled nematocysts used to paralyze and kill fish and other small creatures. Muscles in the tentacles draw prey up to a polyp containing the gastrozooids or digestive organisms. 2. Color Complexion Animals have different skin colors that serve many purposes. At times they guard the animal from danger by camouflaging it from the view of a possible hunter where at times it severs as a warning to other animals that keeps them from approaching the specific animal. Anglerfish The Anglerfish is able to blend into the darkness because of its dark grey and brown color. Therefore, it is able to hide itself from possible predators.

Here are some of the changes that need to be done while making the web page better. First the page layout of the existing page is not a good way to have the page. First thing that needs to be changed is the company’s name. The name should not be put in the middle, because it does not look good there instead it should be on the top left corner of the page. Another thing that should be changed is the employee login. By having the selection there it makes it look really unprofessional and should be changed to be located on the navigational bar with the other selections. The reservation box located on top left corner will have to be moved towards the right side of the page the color for the box will have to be different.

A unique ability, that has laid admiration and fame, that has spread across the world. Thus, for my first curiosity journal, my question is the same as that of a spectator, being treated to a Chameleons transformation. How do Chameleons change color? well, a couple years ago, you would have been told it was because of pigment manipulation in their skin, a misconception. The complex skin of these creatures, has recently reviled its true reason. it has been discovered that the real answer is nano salt crystals manipulation. Acid-Base Reactions, something we have dealt with in class is critical for the Chameleons ability to change color. When an acid and a base are placed together, they react to neutralize each other`s properties, the product is a salt, this product is what Chameleons use to change color, salt crystal manipulation, not pigment manipulation....

...Autumn Leaves Turn Red BACKGROUND INFORMATION Daylight time and temperature decrease during autumn as a warning for trees –and many other organisms- that winter is coming. Many trees lose their leaves; but before that is done the green color of the leaves turns into yellow, red, and orange. These changes do not happen randomly; behind it there is a transformation of the pigments in leaves. One of the main pigments in leaves is chlorophyll and it absorbs the red and blue light from sunlight that falls on leaves; hence, the leaves reflect the "green light" and that is why leaves appear to be green. The chlorophyll is part of a bigger structure called chloroplasts. Photosynthesis, a process in which plants transform solar energy into chemical energy, takes place in the chloroplast; furthermore, it is thanks to this chemical energy that plats produce seeds, grow and flower. However, chlorophyll is not a stable compound because sunlight causes it to decompose; hence, plants have to synthesize it continuously. Nevertheless, this "synthesis" requires sunlight and warm temperatures and that is the reason why it is scarce during autumn. Carotene is another pigment found in plants; it absorbs blue and blue-green light and hence the light reflected from it appears to be yellow. Carotene is found in the chloroplasts of many plants and when it is paired with chlorophyll both absorb many "lights" and therefore the plant looks green. The light carotene absorbs is transferred to...

...1 The Effects of Reading and Naming Colors on Reaction Time Eliza Chulyakova Queens College Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to examine and test the effect of varying levels of interference on one’s response time to name errors and font colors. This experiment is a modified version of an experiment conducted by Stroop in 1935 which tested the interference between incongruent word-color combinations. Seventeen Queens College students participated in this experiment. The independent variable of the experiment was interference, and it consisted of three levels; colored “XXX” symbols, congruent color-word combinations, and incongruent color-word combinations. The dependent variable within the experiment was the mean response time it took participants to accurately choose the color that represented the word set before them. Results have revealed that when different levels of interference were administered, a change in the overall mean response-time becomes evident; as the level of interference increases, so does the number of errors and the time it takes for participants to respond . The Effect of Word and Color Interference on Response Time Interference is categorized as the presentation of two or more stimuli at a given time. Ever since the 1800’s, the effects of interference in several serial verbal reactions have been studied. These studied intended to reveal the various effects that are a result from interfering stimuli that which would not...
