Chapter 1.1, Problem 1.4CT
Scientific Practices More Oxygen … ?
We live in an atmosphere of 21% oxygen. A match burns in less than a minute, a fireplace consumes a small pine log in about 20 minutes, and we exhale about 15 times a minute. Life on Earth would be very different if the oxygen concentration were twice as high. List at least four ways Earth or our lives might be different with such an increased amount of oxygen.

WORKSHEET
A. Joaqui notices that his shower is covered with a strange green slime. His friend Chichay
tells him that coconut juice will get rid of the green slime. Joaqui decides to check this
out by spraying half of the shower with coconut juice. He sprays the other half of the
shower with water. After 3 days of "treatment" there is no change in the appearance of
the green slime on either side of the shower.
1. What is Joaqui's hypothesis?
CG:
ID:
DV:
2. Identify the control group (CG), the independent variable (ID) and the dependent variable
(DV)?
3. What would Joaqui's conclusion be?
E ) Listen
The Ksp value for calcium sulfate [CaSO4] is 2.40 X 10-5 and a professor made 1825
mL of a CaSO4lag) solution but then one of his graduate student accidentally poured
in a 0.125 M solution of calcium phosphate [Ca3(PO4)2] solution. You may ignore
the additional volume coming from the Cag(PO4)2 solution to make the calculation
simpler. What will the new total mass of the sulfate ion (SO4²-) be in this new
solution now.
