A Short Post on One of the Class Experiments

What I focused on for the experiment that stood out to me most was the Citrus Batteries. The reason why this experiment stood out to me, because I never realized there was a correlation between pH levels and electricity. That whole concept was foreign to me, and coming to the realization that it exists emphasized how scientific properties connect on a complex level to better society.

The graph indicates that pH level, and the amount of fruit do pretty much same thing in respect to which fruit is being used. The fruits used were first oranges, then lemons, and then limes. The data can be found below:

1 Orange: 0.87 Volts

2 Oranges: 1.85 Volts

3 Oranges: 2.81 Volts

1 Lemon: 0.93 Volts

2 Lemons: 1.84 Volts

3 Lemons: 2.79 Volts

1 Lime: 0.93 Volts

2 Limes: 1.85 Volts

3 Limes: 2.81 Volts

Conclusions I can draw from this, is that there are sustainable resources that don’t require straining the environment to an extreme extent; however, the utilization of these resources maybe difficult and not the most practical.
