Assignment: Lab Report

Title: Analysis of Energy Sources

Instructions: You will write a 1-page lab report using the scientific method.

When your lab report is complete, post it in Submitted Assignment files.

Part I: Using the lab animation, fill in the data table below to gather your data, and use it to help you generate your hypothesis, outcomes, and analysis.

	Energy Source	Fuel (Coal)/Uranium Needed (tons)	CO₂ Emissions (tons)	Sulfur Dioxide and Other Emissions (tons)	Radioactivity mSv (millisievert)	Solid Waste (tons)	Accidents
Quarter 1	Coal
Quarter 1	Nuclear
Quarter 2	Coal
Quarter 2	Nuclear
Quarter 3	Coal
Quarter 3	Nuclear
Quarter 4	Coal
Quarter 4	Nuclear

Part II: Write a 1-page lab report using the following scientific method sections:

• Purpose

o State the purpose of the lab.

• Introduction

o This is an investigation of what is currently known about the question being asked. Use background information from credible references to write a short summary about concepts in the lab. List and cite references in APA style.

• Hypothesis/Predicted Outcome

o A hypothesis is an educated guess. Based on what you have learned and written about in the Introduction, state what you expect to be the results of the lab procedures.

• Methods

o Summarize the procedures that you used in the lab. The Methods section should also state clearly how data (numbers) were collected during the lab; this will be reported in the Results/Outcome section.

• Results/Outcome

o Provide here any results or data that were generated while doing the lab procedure.

• Discussion/Analysis

o In this section, state clearly whether you obtained the expected results, and if the outcome was as expected.

o Note: You can use the lab data to help you discuss the results and what you learned.

Provide references in APA format. This includes a reference list and in-text citations for references used in the Introduction section.

Give your paper a title and number, and identify each section as specified above. Although the hypothesis will be a 1-sentence answer, the other sections will need to be paragraphs to adequately explain your experiment.

When your lab report is complete, post it in Submitted Assignment files.
