 Pacific Ocean 


Plastic in the ocean is often digested by birds. Birds identify plastic as something they eat. Once in the stomach of a bird the bird is no longer hungry and dosent receive the proper nutrients it requires.

Pacific Ocean, body of salt water extending from the Antarctic region in the south to the Arctic in the north and lying between the continents of Asia and Australia on the west and North and South America on the east. 

Whats the  problem ? 

There is a lot of plastic in the ocean and the fish think its food and then bigger fish eat the little fish then us humans eat those fish that eaten plastic and there is are a lot of sea creatures dying from plastic turtles and a lot more. 

The effects of plastic on animals ?

Plastic has a deadly affect on the wildlife. Thousands of sea birds, sea turtles and other marine mammals are killed each year after eating plastic or getting entangled in it.

In the eastern pacific ocean, is a great pacific garbage patch (GPGP).  This garbage patch has a huse effect on sea mammals because the garbage patch is in the ocean and the fish see plastic a food. People eat fish but there is alot of sea mammals dying from plastic.

Aim:  To produce copper sulfate salt by reacting to copper oxide with an acid.

Equipment: Copper oxide powder, dilute (0.5 mol L-1) sulfuric acid, 50ml measure cylinder, two 100 mL beakers, Bunsen burner (Electronic Plate/Stove), tripod, gauze mat, funnel, filter paper, thermometer, spatula, evaporating basin, stirring rod.

Method: 1. Add 20 mL of sulfuric acid to a 100 mL beaker. Heat the acid until it reaches 70c. Turn off your Bunsen burner.  

2. Once heated, use a spatula to add pea-sized portions of copper oxide to the beaker. Stir the mixture for 30 seconds

3. Repeat step 2 until no more will dissolve. Allow the beaker to cool.

4. Fold the filter paper and place it in the funnel, Place the filter funnel into the second beaker.

5. Make sure the beaker is cool enough to hold at the top. The contents should still be hot. You may need a teacher to complete this step.

6. Gently swirl the contents of the beaker to mix, and then pour into the filter paper in the funnel. Allow it to filter through. 


7. Rinse the beaker you used to heat the mixture previously, and place it back on top of your tripod filled with 50-60 mL of water.

8. Place the evaporating basin on top of the beaker and carefully pour some of the solution from the beaker into the evaporating basin.

9. Gently heat the beaker until the solution in the evaporating basin has reduced by half.

10. Leave the evaporating basin to cool. Once cool, move the evaporating basin to a warm place where it wil

music through time

Parihaka is a community in the Taranaki region of New Zealand, located between Mount Taranaki and the Tasman Sea. In the 1870s and 1880s the settlement, then reputed to be the largest Māori village in New Zealand, became the centre of a major campaign of non-violent resistance to European occupation of confiscated land in the area. Armed soldiers were sent in and arrested the peaceful resistance leaders and many of the Maori residents, often holding them in jail for months without trials.
