    1212 Words  | 5 Pages

    Aquaculture in India Aquaculture is the cultivation of the natural produce of water (such as fish or shellfish, algae and other aquatic plants). Mari culture is specifically marine aquaculture, and thus is a subset of aquaculture. Some examples of aquaculture include raising catfish and tilapia in freshwater ponds, growing cultured pearls, and farming salmon in net-pens set out in a bay. Fish farming is a common kind of aquaculture. India offers a huge potential for aquaculture development. The

    Sodium Nitrate. Experiment B shows the dust is inhalable and can directly get to the lungs. From the oxidation state of nitrogen, Nitrate is the most oxidized form of nitrogen present in the environment. It accounts for the majority of the total available nitrogen in surface waters (Environment Canada 2012). Through a dual oxidation process, Nitrate is formed in a reaction of Nitrogen with Ammonium ion producing fertilizer and manure. The oxidation state of a nitrate compound is 1- . Nitrate is the

  • Copper Hydroxyl Nitrate Lab Report

    503 Words  | 3 Pages

    The synthesis of copper hydroxyl nitrate salt was started by adding 1.91 g of Na2CO3. H2O dissolved in 25 mL of deionized H2O onto 7.01 g of Cu(NO3)2.2.5H2O dissolved in 30 mL of deionized H2O. Then the mixture was heated at 45 ◦C continuously for 30 minutes even though there were some moments of temperature fluctuation at the beginning. After the mixture cooled to room temperature, it was filtered by suction filtration. Then the resulting copper hydroxyl nitrate precipitate was transferred onto

At first, sodium nitrate may seem like a positive factor in those types of food but there have been many controversies about it concerning health issues. Based on some specific studies and organizations, the use of sodium nitrate as a preservative have resulted in cases of cancer. Despite the controversies, when it comes down to whether sodium nitrate has more benefits or disadvantages

  • How Do Nitrate Levels In Water On The Growth Of Radish Seeds?

    1093 Words  | 5 Pages

    Effect Of Nitrate Levels In Water On The Growth Of Radish Seeds. Nitrogen, along with oxygen, is a necessary element for living organisms. Nitrogen makes up over seventy-eight percent of the atmosphere, and without it, life would not be feasible on planet Earth. Nitrogen partly makes up protein, and without protein, cells will lack proper nourishment to repair or build new tissues. Apart from humans and animals, plants satisfy their nitrogen requirements by absorbing ammonium or nitrate from soil

  • 75-75 Grams Of An Insoluble Sullfate Using Barium Nitrate

    383 Words  | 2 Pages

    The goal of the experiment was to produce 0.75 grams of an insoluble sulfate using Barium Nitrate. This was done using Barium Nitrate(Ba(NO3)2) with Sodium Sulfate(Na2SO4) to produce Barium Sulfate(BaSO4) and Sodium Nitrate(NaNO3). The reactants were measured to get the needed mass of each, and then were dissolved in water within separate beakers. After the reactants were added to each other, the reaction occurred, and a centrifuge was used to separate the products. The end result of the reaction

    1259 Words  | 6 Pages

    E. Discussion: In order to synthesize the polymer, Nylon 6,10, we had to complete a few steps to create the chemical reaction that combined sebacoyl chloride and hexamethylenediamine. First we measured the mass of the two graduated cylinders when they were empty, and measured it again after they were filled with sebacoyl chloride and hexamethylenediamine. We did this in order to find the measurements of the reactants. When we measured the graduated cylinder when they were emptied, one weighed at

    that both Herbert Run and the Commons stream would have a high level of nitrate, conductivity, and turbidity. I hypothesized this because of traffic, liter, and the waste and pollution in both streams. For the Commons Stream, the Conductivity was 1086µS/cm. The turbidity was 0 FAU. Last, the Nitrate level for Commons was 0.08 ppm. For Herbert Run the conductivity level was 687µS/cm. The Turbidity level was 0 FAU and the Nitrate level was 0.02ppm. I accept my hypothesis and reject parts of my hypothesis
