Described the issue that you have chosen

Who is affected?
-More than 150,000 young people ask for help with homelessness every year. Causes of homelessness are family arguments, Relationship arguments, Or being told or kicked out of their home, family violence.

What are the issues?
-The lack of shelter, coupled with food insecurity (not knowing where the next meal is coming from), only makes it more difficult for those experiencing homelessness to get back on their feet.

When and how did this start?
-Decreased because of all the company’s helping these there are in need for a cozy nonviolent house with fresh food and water Increased because all the war and conflict in the world and people being involved in violent ways and treated differently to others and with bills and rates and wages for houses have gone up a lot of people can’t afford it and or have lost their job.

Where is it happening?
-The poverty is common include in Southeast Asia, India , and South America ( Third world Countries).

Why is this happening?
-Because people are having tragic life occurrences like family fights, relationship breakdowns, loss of loved ones, job loss Other stuff like depression, untreated mental illness, traumatic stress, disorders and physical disabilities are a why a large amount of people in the world are homeless.



Then we had to say what we plan to do to help solve this issue
-We want to make a difference in our community by providing homeless people with jobs and a nice place to stay and make a difference in their lives.

Year 10 Practical assessment - Acids and Bases

Year 10
Practical Assessment – Chemistry – Acids and Bases
Aim:
To measure the pH of several solids and liquids using universal indicator solution and a pH pen
Equipment:
Spotting tile
Universal indicator solution
Samples of several solids and liquids
pH pen
Method:
1.       Take two samples of each solid/liquid to be tested and arrange on your spotting tile. 
(If you are testing a solid add a drop of water and mix it before adding indicator)
2.       Place one drop of universal indicator on ONE of each sample.
3.       Use the pH pen to measure the pH of the other sample of each substance
Results:
Insert a photograph for each step you took in your method – see your teacher if you don’t have a phone.
Substance
Colour with pH
Description
pH Meter reading
Description
Eg. Substance A
Pale blue
Weak base
8.3
Weak base
Sugar




Lux flakes




Detergent




Toothpaste




Fruit juice




Window cleaner




Citric acid




Cheesels





Conclusion:
Write two or three sentences comparing the results from using universal indicator and the pH pen. Do they all agree? 
Write a sentence saying which method 
(universal indicator or pH pen is more useful when you are testing a coloured solution eg fruit juice)

Making Indicators

Aim: To make and test several indicators to see how their colour changes in acid and base solutions.

Follow the instruction in your book to make and test the indicators.

Fill in this table with your results:

Paste here a photo of your spotting tile after the test
