Our Year 12 chemists are finalising their independent projects today where they were required to complete a six-week research task. Today they are completing their major experiments.
Some experiments currently underway include:
- Caitlin Heigle: Effect of different cooking methods on the iron content of kale
- Lauren Booth: Speed of dissolution of different brands of paracetamol in the stomach
- Ashlyn Radford: Sensitivity of luminol luminescence to blood concentration
- Hayley Browne: Effect of water hardness on critical micelle concentration and foaming of surfactants
- Lily Alexander: Effect of leaf age on the types and concentrations of pigments in Photinia leaves
Good luck girls!
