  2. Water-level task - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-level_task

    [6] [1] The experiment attempts to assess the subject's spatial reasoning. The subject is shown an upright bottle or glass with a water level marked, then shown pictures of the container tilted at different angles without the level marked and asked to mark where the water level would be.

  3. Faraday's ice pail experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_ice_pail_experiment

    If C has a positive charge, the negative charges in the metal are attracted to it and move to the inner surface of the container, while the positive charges are repelled and move to the outside surface. If C has a negative charge, the charges have opposite polarity. Since the container was originally uncharged, the two regions have equal and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    However, certain substances, water for example, contain unique angular structures at the molecular level. As such, when these substances reach temperatures just above their freezing point, they begin to expand, since the angle of the bonds prevent the molecules from tightly fitting together, resulting in more empty space between the molecules ...

    However, during the 1950s, Gilbert introduced a set targeting girls. They sold the set in an attractive pink box, but the set identified girls as "laboratory assistants" or "lab technicians," not scientists. [5] [10] In 1971, a Johnny Horizon Environmental Test Kit was licensed by the U. S. Department of the Interior and produced by Parker ...

  6. Foucault's measurements of the speed of light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foucault's_measurements_of...

    Light from a passing through a slit (not shown) is reflected by mirror m (rotating clockwise around c) towards the concave spherical mirrors M and M'. Lens L forms images of the slit on the surfaces of the two concave mirrors. The light path from m to M is entirely through air, while the light path from m to M' is mostly through a water-filled ...

  7. Analysis of water chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_water_chemistry

    Water chemistry analysis is often the groundwork of studies of water quality, pollution, hydrology and geothermal waters. Analytical methods routinely used can detect and measure all the natural elements and their inorganic compounds and a very wide range of organic chemical species using methods such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry .

  8. Water model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_model

    where μ is the electric dipole moment of the effectively polarized water molecule (2.35 D for the SPC/E model), μ 0 is the dipole moment of an isolated water molecule (1.85 D from experiment), and α i is an isotropic polarizability constant, with a value of 1.608 × 10 −40 F·m 2. Since the charges in the model are constant, this ...

  9. Determination of equilibrium constants - Wikipedia

    When determining the stability constants for ternary complexes, M p A q B r it is common practice the fix the values for the corresponding binary complexes M p′ A q′ and M p′′ B q′′, at values which have been determined in separate experiments. Use of such constraints reduces the number of parameters to be determined, but may result ...
