What is the independent and dependent variable?

a. It is likely that you have observed a sealed soda can left out in a hot car expands. Based on the notion that gas escapes a liquid at high temperatures, a student chose to investigate the amount of dissolve oxygen in a local pond over a 12-month period.
b. Sulfur dioxide is a commonly used preservative in wine as it prevents oxidation and bacterial growth. A wine producer would like to explore if pH affects the solubility of SO2 in the wine, and therefore decides to measure the SO2 in the wine solution over a range of pH values.
c. The H2SO4 electrolyte concentration impacts the performance of lead-acid batteries, commonly used as car batteries. A researcher wishes to determine the optimal H2SO4 concentration for the best performance of the battery, as measured by the voltage output.

Answer:

The independent and dependent variable for the following are as follows:

a. Temperature and amount of dissolved oxygen

b. pH and SO2 solubility/amount

c. H2SO4 concentration and voltage output/performance of battery

Explanation:

In an experiment;

- Independent variable is the variable that the experimenter manipulates or changes in order to get a measurable response.

- Dependent variable is the variable that the experimenter measures based on its response to changes made to the independent variable.

A). In this experiment, a student is trying to investigate the amount of dissolved oxygen in a local pond in response to changes in temperature. Hence, the independent variable is the TEMPERATURE while the dependent variable is the AMOUNT OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN.

B). In this experiment, a wine producer would like to explore if pH affects the solubility of SO2 in the wine by measuring the amount of SO2 in the wine solution over a range of pH values. Hence, the independent variable is the pH while the dependent variable is the SO2 SOLUBILITY OR AMOUNT.

C). In this experiment, a researcher wishes to determine the optimal H2SO4 concentration for the best performance of the battery, as measured by the voltage output. Hence, the independent variable is the CONCENTRATION OF H2SO4 while the dependent variable is the VOLTAGE OUTPUT or PERFORMANCE of the battery.
