  • dependent: how many papers are stapled, it DEPENDS on whether or not they had the special drink

    independent: the drink

    could be improved by accounting for the placebo affect ie. knowing you are drinking a special drink to make you do the stapling better…you may just end up doing better, but not because of the drink. just KNOWING your taking the drink will make you think that it will make you perform much better…so you will (or you will report something like ‘ oh it made me feel so energized’) but only because of what youre thinkiong…it has nothing to do with the drink itself. to deal with this, i would give both groups a drink – one the special drink and the other a glass of kool aid or something, but i wouldnt let either group know which one they got!

  • dep.- # of stacks

    ind.- special drink

    How to obtain a pure sample of solid MgSO?

    Answers Favorite AnswerYou have to get the MgO into a more usable form. To do this, add water to MgO first.MgO + HO ---> Mg(OH)Now you can use Mg(OH) with sulphuric acid.Mg(OH) + HSO ===> MgSO + HOI suppose it is possible to write it asMgO + HO + HSO ===> MgSO + HOMgO + HSO ===> MgSO + HO It should work.Add distilled water to the MgO so that it becomes Mg(OH). For simplicity it is best to use the sulfuric acid, since the only products other than magnesium sulphate would be water. The water can be removed by heating the solution until most of the water boils away. If you want anhydrous magnesium sulphate then you can heat the hydrated salt that is left.Other than take a bottle of magneisum sulfate from the shelf in my stockroom?React Mg(OH), which is called milk of magnesia, and HSO, sulfuric acid, stoichiometrically, and evaporate the water, allowing the MgSO salt to precipitate.Mg(OH)(s) + HSO(aq) --> MgSO(aq) + HO(l)
