As ethanol is a polar molecule.
The pith ball will have a negative charge after touching the negatively charged polyethylene strip. This is because electrons are transferred from the strip to the pith ball, leaving the pith ball with a net negative charge.
You can test pH levels using pH test strips, a pH meter, or pH drops. Simply dip the test strip into the solution, or submerge the meter's probe, or add a few drops of the liquid to a small sample. The color change or reading will indicate the pH level of the solution.
its called a Strip. I found this information on a box of staples that contist of 5000 staples, 150 per strip....
The principle of a bimetallic strip is that it consists of two different metals with different coefficients of thermal expansion bonded together. When the strip is heated, the metals expand at different rates, causing the strip to bend. This bending action is utilized in devices like thermostats to control temperature.
When a bimetallic strip is heated, the two metals expand at different rates causing the strip to bend towards the metal with the lower coefficient of thermal expansion. Conversely, when the strip is cooled, it bends towards the metal with the higher coefficient of thermal expansion. This bending action can be harnessed for applications like thermostats and temperature-sensitive switches.
Rubbing an acetate strip with tissue paper transfers electrons, giving the strip a negative charge. When you hold the strip near running water, the positive ions in the water are attracted to the negatively charged strip, causing the water stream to bend towards the strip due to the electrostatic force between the charged objects.
The charged strip will induce opposite charges in the pith balls, causing them to be attracted to the strip. As a result, the pith balls will move closer together due to the electrostatic force of attraction.
Placing a few drops of ethanol on the hand can temporarily dry out the skin due to its evaporation properties. It may also disinfect the area by killing some bacteria and viruses present on the skin. However, it can also strip the skin of its natural oils, potentially causing irritation or dryness with repeated use.
What I personally would do is tear a strip from a sheet of nose- or toilet-tissue, hang it next to the object under test but not touching it, and see if the paper is attracted to the object. I call it the 'poor man's gold leaf'.
If you move the material near the negative acetate strip and they repel each other, the material negatively charged. If they move towards each other, it is positively charged. If you move the material near the positive rod and they attract, the material is negatively charged. If they repel, it is positively charged. This is because opposite charges attract and same charges repel.
The pith ball will have a negative charge after touching the negatively charged polyethylene strip. This is because electrons are transferred from the strip to the pith ball, leaving the pith ball with a net negative charge.
The balloon becomes negatively charged due to the transfer of electrons from the cloth. When the negatively charged balloon comes in contact with the metal strip, electrons will flow from the strip to the balloon, neutralizing the charge on the balloon. This process is known as static discharge.
When an acetate strip is charged by rubbing, it acquires a negative charge. This is because acetate is a type of material that tends to lose electrons easily when rubbed, causing it to become negatively charged.
Rub the acetate strip against the paper towel to transfer electrons from the acetate strip to the paper towel, leaving the acetate strip positively charged. Touch the electroscope's metal knob with the positively charged acetate strip to transfer the positive charge to the electroscope. This will cause the electroscope's leaves to repel each other, indicating a positive charge.
put it in the water and it can be attracted to anything
The movement of paper bits towards the rubbed plastic strip indicates the presence of static electricity. When the plastic is rubbed, electrons transfer from the plastic to the paper, causing the paper bits to be attracted to the strip due to opposite charges.
May be because it gives more volatile esters, easy to separate or concentrate or strip off.
