Mixtures Are Everywhere

The amount of mixtures that can be created is infinitive. Everything you combine is a mixture, not only is this the case in the laboratory but even in your own house. Think of your kitchen, if you bake a basic cake your combining each of those ingredients to make a mixture that becomes your batter that you then put in the oven. Even the metal creating your water bottle is a mixture, the stainless steel and chromium is melted together then formed to make the bottle you use everyday. Mixtures are all around us in everyday life.

Solutions are also mixtures, but since all the molecules are evenly distributed its then considered homogeneous mixtures. There are many examples of this in the kitchen is lemonade, I say lemonade because all the ingredients in the drink dissolve or mix in with each other.

Another type on mixture is a homogeneous mixture. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that consist of visibly different substances or phases. Phases meaning states of matter as gas,liquid, and solid. As I stated before, mixtures are everywhere, even in the kitchen! An example of this in everyday life is a pot stew or curry, usually in a meal like this solid ingredients are used and cooked in the liquid then thickened to a stew or curry (I'm hungry while writing this sorry). When cooking this meal the solid ingredients (for example a potato) doesn't dissolve and fully combine
with the rest of the meal like a homogeneous mixture would.

Mixtures in the kitchen can absolutely evolve in the kitchen, both science and food evolves every second and together the possibilities are endless. In cooking its self there is a category of specifically working with  elements of food in a more scientific way that is a little more then just heating up a pan and making a meal. This is called Molecular Gastronomy, Molecular Gastronomy is amazing its self but I think that with time we can  take this to focus on make then just food. Maybe a food advancement that could influence changes in the human body that could help peoples health and well being.

Force and Motion in Concerts

Force and Motion Blog  By Amadi Clemens INTRODUCTION: Do you listen to Travis Scott? If so, you know of his most recent album AstroWorld has been on tour. One of his recent shows (in Oakland, California) he performed with a roller coaster. Crazy, right? It wasn’t like a full roller coaster that you see Six Flags. It’s like the Ring of Fire at Clementon Park. His ring ties into his theme park theme! PROS AND CONS: There are pros and cons that follow this event. A pro is that it was a fresh idea. I’ve seen amusement parks and rides in music videos but never live in concert. Another pro is that it was eye-catching and entertaining.. The main idea of a concert is that it is entertaining, this is going back to the idea of fresh. A con is that it’s very dangerous. Although thrilling, what if something goes wrong? What if it breaks? What if it stops mid-way in the year and he can’t rap anymore? Mechanical service would have to come and get him and that can ruin the concert. Another con, ...

Chemical complexities that causes Saturn's rings to change planet’s atmosphere

Ayad Alhazmi 10/19/2018 Chemical complexities that causes Saturn's rings to change planet’s atmosphere New discoveries are made today on Saturn's rings by the Cassini space probe. Based on data from the final orbits of NASA's Cassini space probe shows the rings of Saturn. Some of the most amazing celestial objects in the universe are far more chemically complicated than was previously understood by scientist. When the Cassini space probe first gathered the information from 2017 and the signals of Cassini took scientist a long time to retrieve the information. Also knowing the astrophysicists are still studying it is beyond my reach. I will show you a quote by a professor of physics and astronomy Thomas Cravens. "Two things surprised me. One is the chemical complexity of what was coming off the rings -- we thought it would be almost entirely water based on what we saw in the past. The second thing is the sheer quantity of it -- a lot more than we originally expected. ...

The Earth is a very big Magnet Its North and South Poles are Highly Magnetic

The Earth is a very big Magnet     Its North and South Poles are Highly Magnetic   By: Alzahraa Alrubaiey Magnetism is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other. Magnetism is caused by the motion of electric charges. Earth has two geographic poles: the North Pole and the South Pole. They are the places on Earth's surface that Earth's imaginary spin axis passes through. Our planet also has two magnetic poles: the North Magnetic Pole and the South Magnetic Pole. The magnetic poles are near, but not quite in the same place as the geographic poles.   The Earth is a magnet that can interact with other magnets in this way, so the north end of a compass magnet is drawn to align with the Earth's magnetic field. Because the Earth's magnetic North Pole attracts the north ends of other magnets, it is technically the South Pole of our planet's magnetic field. A compass point north because all magnets have two poles, a north pole...
