Aim Plants take in carbon dioxide and realise oxygen using photosynthesis so I am trying to determine the rate of photosynthesis. In this experiment I will investigate how sodium hydrogen carbonate affects the rate of photosynthesis. Apparatus Needed * Glass Funnel * Desk lamp * 1 Litre Beaker * Test tube * Aquatic Plant (Canadian Pond weed) * A ball of plasticine * Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate * Razor Blade * Bench lamp with a 40W bulb * 30cm wooden ruler * Clock * Stirring rod Using the Apparatus * I will follow all the lab safety rules e.g. no running, no back packs etc) * I will have to keep the lamp away from making contact with any water or moisture. * When using the razor blade I must take extreme caution as it can easily cut my finger or cause harm to others.
