Why is fertilizer dangerous?
Why is fertilizer dangerous? To grow, plants require nitrogen compounds from the soil, which can be produced naturally or be provided by fertilizers. However, applying excessive amounts of fertilizer leads to the release of harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and the eutrophication of our waterways. What is the environmental impact of chemical fertilizers? Some […]
Why do Acids burn?
Why do Acids burn? An acid is a substance that separates readily into charged hydrogen ions (H+). These charged ions undergo catalytic reactions named amide/ester hydrolysis, that eventually cause the destruction of proteins and lipids in biological tissue, and therefore the chemical burn. What acid can burn through anything? A common corrosive acid is hydrochloric […]
How do you test if sunglasses are polarized?
How do you test if sunglasses are polarized? Look at a bright, reflective light source (e.g., glass, water, or polished metal) with your shades on.

Why is being precise important?
Why is being precise important? Precision in scientific investigations is important in order to ensure we are getting the correct results. Since we typically use models or samples to represent something much bigger, small errors may be magnified into large errors during the experiment. Precision is also important in order to ensure our safety. What […]

What happens to a balloon when air pressure decreases?
What happens to a balloon when air pressure decreases? The ideal gas law equation tells us that the pressure of the air in the balloon will increase. As the balloon volume decreases, pressure inside the balloon increases. It eventually is able to balance the outside air pressure. You end up with a balloon filled with […]
