research article (articles to choose from are listed below).
You need to answer the
question listed below based on the information in the news article.

News article reviews
need to be upload in Canvas.
Late assignments will initially be penalized 10% followed

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/01/200122110447.htm
Questions:
1)
What is the citation for the news article?
Cell Press. "Brewing a better espresso, with a shot of math." ScienceDaily.
ScienceDaily, 22 January 2020.
<
www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/01/200122110447.htm
>.
2)
What is the citation for the journal article were the original research was reported?
Michael I. Cameron, Dechen Morisco, Daniel Hofstetter, Erol Uman, Justin Wilkinson,
Zachary C. Kennedy, Sean A. Fontenot, William T. Lee, Christopher H. Hendon, Jamie
M. Foster. Systematically Improving Espresso: Insights from Mathematical Modeling
and Experiment.
Matter
, 2020; DOI:

3)
What observation(s) led to the researchers conducting the study?
Researchers observed that people in the coffee industry were using a fine-grind and too
much coffee beans to create a flavor of bitterness and sour acidity. The fine grind
exposed the brewing liquid which led to a boost extraction yield. Some of the ground
coffee dissolves into the drink. Researchers created a mathematical model for the
extraction yield and found out it was more complicated than they originally expected it to
be. Fine grinding clogged the coffee bed, decreasing the extraction yield, waste raw
material, and difference in taste by sampling grounds and missing others.
4)
Write a hypothesis that could be associated with this research study.
Using less coffee beans and grounding very little can will make the espresso coffee
cheaper to make and have more consistent shots.
5)
What is the research question that is being answered in this study?
Is there a more efficient, simpilar, and cheaper method to making espresso coffee?
6)
Explain the experimental design used in this study.
The extraction yield depended on the pressure of the water flow through the mass of
coffee grounds. Researchers realized they needed more computing power to solve the
physics and equations of the brewing. The researchers used electrochemistry to figure
out how caffeine and molecules dissolved out the coffee grounds. They also needed to
see how the lithium ions move through electrodes of a battery. Researchers boost the
extraction yield through more routes.
7)
Summarize the results of this study.
The results of the study indicate that the researcher’s experimental design will require
fewer coffee beans per cup of beverage, thereby reducing costs and reducing waste in
coffee supplies. Even though this is a great method to use to make espresso, there is
no one clear way how every person wants their espresso made. A factor to consider is
that not all people enjoy their coffee the same, and there are different ways people want
their own espresso made. This experiment design causes some conflict but does have
some upside with improving reproducibility.

The Covid-19 pandemic has many experts commenting on the science associated with the virus - origins, vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, masks, social distancing. It is important to consider what the experts say, but to also evaluate their statements. We will start with the scientific method.
I want you to outline the scientific method from what you have been taught in previous classes. You can list steps, parts, process, short descriptions, whatever. If not taught in previous classes, then you will make your best guess about it.

information was given, but inside the bottle were some white crystals.
The student took the bottle to a chemistry laboratory, where she analyzed the
crystals with the help of the laboratory staff. C₁2H₁6O reacted with Br₂ in CCl4
adding one mole of Br, and forming C₁₂H₁OB2₂.
When a sample of C₁₂H₂O was reacted with O3 followed by Zn/H₂O, two
different samples, J and K, were obtained. Compound J had a molecular formula
of C.HgO₂, and its NMR is shown below.
Compound K had a molecular formula of C₂H₂O, and it could be oxidized to
compound L, with a molecular formula of C₂H₂O₂. The IR spectrum of L showed
a very wide, strong band centred around 3000 cm*¹. The NMR spectrum of L
showed only two different absorptions: a doublet (6H) at 0.9 ppm and a septet
(1H) at 3.6 ppm. There was also a singlet (1H) off the scale at 11.8 ppm.

Explain your rationale for using the summative assessment (below) from the lesson plan on mixing substances in a 5th-grade classroom based on the below standard and learning objective, including how it aligns with the learning objective.
Summative Assessment
Summative:
Components of the Lab Report
Purpose: The student should clearly state the purpose of the experiment, which is to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances.
Procedure: The student should describe the steps they took to conduct the experiment. This includes the substances they chose to mix and the safety equipment they used.
Observations: The student should record any observable changes that occurred when the substances were mixed. This could include a color change, the formation of a precipitate, or a change in temperature.
Conclusion: The student should state whether a new substance was formed based on their observations. They should also reflect on their accuracy in…

In the following sub-questions, use your book and
notes to generate an argument for each model of light.
Remember, on the first day of class we discussed that
argumentation requires:
●
a claim (which I've given),
• evidence (which you should look up in the form of
data or scientific principles) and
reasoning that connects the evidence to the claim
(which you should generate from your
understanding so far).
