Chemistry Practice
Measuring the density using two different methods and deciding which method produces more error Method 1 Table: Method 2 Table and Graph: ________________ First of all the formula for density is mass divided by volume. Thus the gradient of the graph can be seen as the density, as it fits the formula. So the density for the first volume (5cm^3) is 5.02/5, which is 1.004g/cm^3. Conclusion- Method two was logically the one with less error,

Chemistry Vitamin C
tamin C, ascorbic acid, is one of the most important vitamins found in citrus juices, including orange juice. Often projects find that orange juices made from frozen concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) have the highest vitamin C levels as compared to freshly squeezed or not-from-concentrate (NFC) juices. This is probably due to the fact that vitamin C degrades over time in fresh and NFC, but doesn't degrade as much in FCOJ due to it being frozen
