When determining slope, data points do not usually fall within a straight line, so you need to draw a TREND line, with as many points above and below the line as possible.
Trend line is also called line of best fit. Trend line refers to a line that is drawn through plotted data points, which best expresses the association between the points; that is, it shows the trend in the plotted points. The line is usually used to visually show the relationship between points, which may not be obvious from the data table
Answer:
For this experiment we are going to take plate 1 as the control plate, so, in it there will be just E. coli in LB/agar; in plate 2, we are going to put E. coli in LB/agar and some ampicillin. Then, we have to wait for the E. coli colonies to form. After a while, the E. coli growth can be compared on both plates and determine if ampicillin affects or not the E. coli colonies.
Explanation:
If the ampicillin affects negatively E. coli colonies, we are going to observe that in plate 1 (control plate) there are E. coli colonies growing, but in plate 2, there is no E. coli colonies or, at least, there is a fewer number of colonies on it. If ampicillin doesn't affect E.coli, plate 1 (control) and plate 2 (ampicillin experiment) are going to be similar in number of colonies.
The solubility of a substance in water is dependent on the temperature. Thus for
1 & 2: Temperature is the independent variable (the one that changes in the first place) and Solubility is a dependent variable (a variable that changes in response to changes in the independent variable.)
The graph: by convention you shall label the horizontal axis with the independent variable and the vertical axis with the dependent variable. For clarity's sake you shall use the finest scale possible that accommodates for all data provided for both axis. Plot the data points on the graph as if they are points on a cartesian plane.
My teacher made no detailed requirements on the phrasing on titles of solubility curve plots; however, like most other graphs in chemistry, the title shall specify the name of variables presented in this visualization. For instance, "the solubility of
under different temperatures" might do. You shall refer to your textbooks for such convention.
It is necessary to interpolate to find the solubility at a temperature not given in the table. Start by connecting all given data points with a smooth line; find the vertical line corresponding to temperature = 75 degree Celsius and determine the solubility at the intersection of the vertical line and the trend line. That point shall approximates the solubility of the salt at that temperature.
Answer is "C"
alpha decay is an emission of ₂⁴He nucleus. If an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass of the daughter nucleus formed is reduced by 4 compared to mass of parent atom and atomic number is reduced by 2 compared to atomic number of parent atom.
