samples
Pouring UPW into the reactor
As for today, i continue on my work for the Nickel (5 and 1 ppm)...Finished for Nickel and will continue with Zinc probably tomorrow...Need to measure pH and temperature as well for the previous sample before run it with ICP (next 2 weeks).
Emmm..whats so special bout today? At around 10 am, one undergrad student came to me asking bout kernel seeds. He wanted to check on the cations and anions, mentioned metal but telling me anions..heheh so i asked him to check again..cant blame them, they keep on stressing that they are civil's not from science background..heheh okay, okay, i understand..so i gave him a short explanation on what instrument to use, what actually u can detect, the expected concentration n many more..well, thank god he understand it and appreciate even though i didnt help him much..hehe
enough of that, the serious disaster for today was..The stopper tercabut while i angkat the reactor..and oh my, splashed all over my shirt and the floor..so im all wet, plus have to clean up the floor..no mop here, n i was like cinderella story, cleaning it up with tissue paper..hhuhu...i have a helper, Nik..she insist to help me, so she clean it up too..
Done with that, n Im now having a serious headache...uhhh...im waiting for the metals to be well mixed actually, have about 7 minutes more...prepare for the worse..hahah coz while i was filling the syringe with nitrogen gas for previous set, the syringe just dont want to move as the gas are filling it, which will sudden "pop" when excess gas in it...thats what im so AFRAID of...
