Impact of Prosthesis Fit on Nutritional Health of the Lower Limb Amputee
Authors: Sarasvathy V  , Dr.S.Visalakshi Rajeswari
Published: June 2022

Socket designs ensure optimum fit between the user and the device (prosthesis), as an interface between the human – machine system. The type that an amputee is “fit with” depends on the shape of the residual limb, the length of the residual limb, activity level, prognosis, and individual preference. Patient satisfaction and function relies on pressure and force distribution (Biomechanics) on the socket-residual limb interface. The most determinant factor of prosthetic use lies in the design of the prosthetic socket and fit depends on the degree to which the prosthesis fits the stump. Well planned socket designs and careful consideration of stump presentation had set an achievement platform for the prosthetic user by maximizing range of motion, stability during the performance of daily activities, and comfortably distributing the forces exerted on the residual limb during movement and suspension. A study was conducted to analyze the health issues and their impact on the use/ acceptance of prosthesis among select amputees’. Physiological factors, obesity, age, nutritional status and co-morbidities were found to impose mechanical implications related to accessibility and well being concepts. The study highlighted prosthetic fitting to be more challenging with increased load (obesity) to transmit through the prosthetic socket in limited pressure–tolerant anatomical areas. Hence nutritional and physiotherapy intervention on effective and efficient prosthetic use was done to enhance their health and well -being.

Published: June 2022

Assam, a state with a blend of culture, heritage, faith and belief of numerous ethnic tribes with a distinct food culture has once been a cradle of therapeutic cuisines. Urbanization and westernization has resulted in a drastic shift of eating habits of people of Assam leading to spare usage of recipes that have potential therapeutic values .Reintroducing the forgotten therapeutic recipes into the tribal communities of Assam is the need of the day. A total of 50 tribal women (purposive sampling) above the age group of 60 years from Sadiya in Assam were interviewed to collect the original traditional therapeutic recipes of Assam. A total of 120 traditional therapeutic tribal recipes were collected ,documented  and classified for 13 different disease conditions namely Gastrointestinal diseases(43), Degenerative diseases(15), Infectious diseases(21), Respiratory diseases(14), Liver disease(8), Renal disorder(3), Cardiovascular Disease(3), Reproductive problems(5), Nutritional deficiency(20), Sleeping disorder(2), Vision problem(2), Blood toxicity(2) and Others (1). The classified recipes  were  standardized and  tested for its  organoleptic qualities  by a semi trained panel of 10 members using a 9 point hedonic scale  and it was  found to be acceptable for all sensory characteristic indicating  the  grater scope of  its consumption by a different population across the nation for therapeutic uses.
Impact of spider mite feeding on vegetable crops

Published: June 2022

Agriculture plays an important role to determine the economy of Kerala. Being primarily an agriculturalstate, contribution of Kerala to the vegetable crop industry is a crucial one. However, despite the rich diversity ofour vegetable crops, knowledge on their faunal composition, particularly of spider mites as pests and other relateddetails remains very much limited. In recent years due to random use of chlorinated hydrocarbons for control ofgeneral pests, which in turn kill their natural enemies, and because of using high yielding varieties and improvedagricultural practices, many mite species which were of less importance or of no value at all during the past haveassumed the status of major pests. These, among other factors have further aggravated the situation of the problemof spider mites as pests.The plant feeding mites (Acari: Tetranychidae) has piercing and sucking type of mouth parts with whichit pierces the leaf tissue and sucks the plant sap. The point of suction is marked by the appearance of white spotswhich gradually coalesce to form chlorotic patches, necrotic patches etc. Spider mite feeding cause various typesof direct damage like loss of chlorophyll, appearance of striplings or bronzing of foliage, stunting of growth,formation of galls and erineal patches thereby causing an array of deformities and reduction of yield. The intensityof damage ranging from simple mechanical injury to complex physiological alterations of the plant tissues wouldlead to collapse of the photosynthetic machinery of the plant. Apart from direct damages, many are known to actas vectors of plant viral diseases causing more potential loss to growers. In many instances, lack of informationabout the correct identity of spider mites, their biology and ecology caused serious consequences to agriculture.In view of their importance in agriculture, the present study is thought to be highly warranted, as it isenvisaged with a view to provide information on the impact of feeding of the spider mites

The high heterogeneity has become apparent in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) and the solitary leading causes of cancer mortality worldwide. Tumor from benign to malignancies derives by gradual and progressive genetic alterations develop into a collection of neoplastic diseases. The parameters are assessed to indicate the extent and prognosis of the disease such as tumor node metastasis stage, tumor grade, microsatellite status, lymphovascular invasion. It is investigated KRAS mutation status in a metastatic to predict the response to anti-epidermal growth factor.  CRC has been described that have prognostic and therapeutic relevance at a distinct molecular level. In the present study, the researcher recruited 65 CRC patients with different stages of the tumor at the right-sided colon, left-sided colon and rectum. We have also recognized left-sided was more complex than right sided CRC patents. In CRC, it has revealed the major differences in the characterization of inflammatory infiltrations and cells location in tumor types. All the patients were stratified into different prognostic and therapeutic groups with the help of these parameters. Though, CRC show intra-tumor heterogeneity due to not clear-cut stratification. However, several CRC patients with single tumor mutations show differences in their mutational status, morphology, inflammatory infiltrate and gene expression. In conclusion, the primary focus on the concept of molecular heterogeneity their metastases and clinical implication in CRC.

Published: June 2022

Packrat parsing is a type of recursive decent parsing with guaranteed liner time parsing. For this,memoization technique is implemented in which all parsing results are memorized to avoid repetitive scanningof inputs in case of backtracking. The issue with this technique is large heap consumption for memoization whichout weigh the benefits. In many situations the developers need to make a tough decision of not implementingpackrat parsing despite the possibility of exponential time parsing. In this paper we present our developedtechnique to avoid such a tough choice. The heap consumption is upper bounded since memorized results arestored in buffer, capacity of which is decided at runtime depending on memory available in the machine. Thisdynamic buffer allocation is implemented by us in Mouse parser. This implementation achieves stableperformance against a variety of inputs with backtracking activities while utilizing appropriate size of memoryfor heap.

India is an agricultural country. During lockdown, there had been a big problem transporting the productionto cold storages. Considering the problem of villagers, a low cost and affordable refrigeration system is proposedhere. The time and cost of transportation through the cold chain and the storage are thus saved. This cold storageis automated to control the environmental conditions suitable for extending life of fruits and vegetables. It uses amicrocontroller to control humidity, temperature and CO2 level which is appropriate for the commodity to bestored by the farmer. It alerts the farmer before the expiry date of the stored commodity through a message on thephone number linked with the storage. It uses the water obtained from condensation on cooling ducts for humiditycontrol. To maintain the optimum level of CO2 inside the chamber, fresh air is circulated at regular intervals oftime. It consumes same power as a refrigerator would consume. It does not require continuous water supply orammonia as in regular cold storage systems. It can be easily customized for a particular user.

HOW IT WAS: RESULTS AND LESSONS OF THE MAIN EVENTS OF 1917 IN THE HISTORY OF RUSSIA
Authors: Kallin Igor V. , Sokolova Valentina I.
Published: June 2022

The article considers the main events that occurred in Russia in 1917. In February 1917, a revolutionary crisis arose in the country, which led to the overthrow of the 300-year-old Romanov`s empire. The old state apparatus was broken. At the end of winter of 1917, at a meeting of the State Duma, the Provisional Committee of the State Parliament (Duma) was created. The Provisional Government headed by Duke G.E. Lꞌvov had been formed by March 1. On March 2, Emperor Nicholas II signed the “Manifesto on the abdication of the throne of the Russian state and the resignation of the Supreme power.” As early as February, the Petrograd Soviet of Workers’ and Soldiers’ Deputies was created, it being headed by N.S. Chkheidze. Thus, dual power was established in the country. The newly formed government was unable to resolve the most important issues related to the life of the peoples of Russia. In early October 1917, V.I. Lenin began preparing an armed uprising in order to seize power. A course was taken for an armed coup. The conspiracy of the Bolsheviks was a success: the Winter Palace was taken, the ministers of the Provisional Government were arrested. At the II Congress of Soviets, a new government was created – the Council of People’s Commissars. The first decrees were adopted – the Decree on Peace, the Decree on Land, the decree on Power, proclaiming the establishment of the power of the Soviets. There was the only task on the agenda – the retention of power. The Constituent Assembly, for which alternative parties had high hopes, was dispersed by the Bolsheviks in early 1918.

Authors:   Lyceum of the Philippines University, Manila, Philippines
Published: June 2022

The aim of this study is to assess the influence of virtual facilitators’ supervisory styles in the virtual intern contingencies, environmental contingencies, and the intern’s motivation, satisfaction and learning, particularly in the hospitality management program. In this phenomenological study, twenty students who completed their internship remotely and met with their supervisor once a week for synchronous sessions, as well as five virtual internship facilitators who all had a lot of experience with interns but none had ever had to supervise interns remotely, were interviewed one-on-one via the digital platform Zoom. The recordings were then transcribed and analyzed. The key findings of the study agreed well with literature as to how virtual internships benefit student interns (Aarons, 2019; Seyitolu & Yirik, 2015). The experience allowed learners to achieve work experience while developing basic and specific skills. Even though study's findings are restricted in their comprehensiveness given the small sample size, they did reveal some insights into virtual internships and their significance to stakeholders.

On The Idealized Image and Japanese Moral Narratives: A Case Study of an Artist of the Floating World
Authors:   School of English, Zhejiang Yuexiu University, Shaoxing, China
Published: June 2022

An Artist of the Floating World by Kazuo Ishiguro is set at the end of World War II. It reveals the psychological trauma caused by the war, the self-help method adopted by the characters to heal themselves, concerning “idealized images” and Japanese moral narratives, which are consistent with the narrative ways adopted by the contemporary Japanese government to deal with the negative effects of war. The novel creates a “positive image” by means of morality and memory interweaving, half true and half false, avoiding the serious and taking the light to demonstrate the “mainstream memory” which is more acceptable to himself and the public. In dealing with the moral conflicts of war trauma, the protagonist of An Artist of the Floating World creates idealized image through using Japanese moral narratives to shape and strengthen it.When his moral conflict, his idealized image, and his real self can not be reconciled, the house and pub provide him a stage to escape from reality, to hypnotize himself through his own achievement, to ignore his own impact on the war, to reshape his heroic image with Japanese heroic narrative. For the reader, through the repetition and emphasis of the prosperous and the modified description of the house and Kawakami’s Pub, Ono’s career and contribution are also enhanced, his own achievements are exaggerated, and militarism behaviors are blurred so as to make the effect of diverting the reader’s attention from Ono’s sins that urge war outbreak, add fuel to the destruction caused by the war which is highly s similar to the application of the Yasukuni Shrine in current Japanese political strategy. On the basis of examining the contents mentioned above, which reflect the nation’s way of coping with the war trauma from the perspective of individuals, this study attempts to help people better understand the continuity and complexity of the negative effects of war. Meanwhile, it hopes that the Japanese government can transmit the negative information of war more objectively so as to have a clearer and more reasonable identity.

Authors:   College of Management, Capiz State University, Roxas City, Capiz, Philippines
Published: June 2022

Over the years, internal auditing had been recognized as an important tool of government financial management in enhancing transparency and accountability, effectiveness and efficiency of government operations. The study ascertained the level of responsiveness and challenges encountered by the Internal Audit Services (IAS) in the Local Government Units (LGUs) of Capiz in terms of implementation, resources, qualification, and training and development. The descriptive-correlational research design employing quantitative and qualitative methods was used. The respondents were the individuals associated with the IAS of the LGUs’ accounting, budget, and treasury departments of Capiz. The data were gathered using a researcher-made questionnaire through Google Forms for the respondents and an interview guide for the informants. The statistical tools used to analyze the data were mean, frequency count, rank, and percentage. For inferential analysis, the t-test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and regression analysis were used. On the level of challenges encountered by the IAS in the LGUs when taken as a whole, it is implied that the LGUs were moderately challenged. Statistics showed that the implementation, Internal Audit Services (IAS) qualification, and training and education did not act as significant predictors on their level of responsiveness towards IAS. However, the results further implied that resources did act as a significant predictor on their level of responsiveness. Several noted irregularities and deficiencies within the government financial management and operations, lack of adherence to laws, rules and regulations and the public demand for improved accountability and transparency further entails the need for internal audit in the government sector.

Authors:   Division of Diagnostic Imaging, University Hospital of Kinshasa, School of Medicine, University of Kinshasa, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo, Tshibasu Tshienda Frederick
Published: June 2022

Objective: Consist of making an inventory of the indications for lumbar spinal MRI in the diagnostic management of lumbar spinal pathologies in hospitals in Kinshasa and Brazzaville. About 302 patients. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective, documentary and multicenter study on 302 patients who underwent lumbar spine MRI examinations in 18 months in hospitals in Kinshasa and Brazzaville. Results: The mean age of patients was 53.4 years. The most represented age group was 50 to 59 years old. The female sex was predominant (55.4%) with a ratio of 0.79. The majority of patients (68.2%) came from Kinshasa. Lumboradiculgia was the most represented indication (49.3%) followed by low back pain (48%). The majority of MRI examinations (91.4%) were performed without injection of contrast product. T1 and T2 weightings were performed in 100% of patients. Degenerative disc disease was found at (41.7%) and lumbar disc herniation at (27.2%). The MRI examination was normal in (47%) of the patients. Based on potentially clinically positive relevance, only 48.7% of our MRI diagnose were clinically positive. Age (p=0.000), lumboradiculgia (p=0.000) and specialist physician prescription (0.039) had a statistically significant relationship with clinically positive diagnosis. Conclusion: The use of lumbar spinal MRI examination was inappropriate in our study; this opinion mostly corroborates the observations of the literature. A codification of lumbar MRI indications in the radiological exploration of lumbar spinal disorders would avoid abusive and expensive prescriptions for a study population with low economic income.

Background: In this study, we shed the light on the effect of two short-term ICU admissions within short period in-between admissions and the undesirable results in core muscles, lower limb motor power and physical abilities. We emphasized the importance of early intervention of physical therapy during ICU admission and after. Case Report: This study involved a 58 years old female patient with CKD and liver cirrhosis long years ago, underwent living-donor kidney and liver transplant procedure in September 2021, and was admitted in ICU for one week. Few months later, investigation revealed poor kidney function and renal graft nephrectomy was done in December 2021. Patient was admitted one week in ICU after renal graft nephrectomy. Core muscles, lower limb muscles and physical abilities were measured pre and post ICU admission after renal graft nephrectomy and at the time of discharge from physical therapy service. Result: Motor power was measured before renal graft nephrectomy and ICU admission classified and measured as follows: core muscles, hip flexors, adductors and abductors graded 3/5, hams and quad graded 3+/5, patient was able to stand up from sitting on regular chair and able to walk without assistance. Post renal graft nephrectomy and ICU admission the MRC was as follows: core muscles, hip flexors, adductors and abductors graded 2-/5, hams and quad graded 3-/5, patient was unable to stand up from regular chair and has poor standing balance. Patient was followed up in physical therapy eight weeks in total, four weeks in in-patient setting and four week in OPD. The discharge assessment shows improvement in hams and quad motor power measured 4/5, good core muscles and hip muscles measured 4/5. Patient was ambulatory without assistive device at the time of discharge from physical therapy service. Conclusion: Short-term ICU admission can acquired weakness if patient has repeated ICU admissions within short period

Unilateral cervical chondrocutanous branchial remnants (CCBRs) are uncommon, but when they do occur, they usually occur at the anterior margin of the sternocleidomastoid muscle on the lateral side of the neck, whereas normal skin with a cartilage core makes up the lesions. They have no deep underlying tissues; however, they frequently adhere to the sternocleidomastoid muscle fascia, Surgical excision is the preferred treatment for a CCBR. To rule out underlying significant anomalies, a comprehensive physical examination and ultrasound evaluation of the abdomen and heart are required
THE IMPACT OF MICRO FINANCING ON WOMEN: A BRIEF REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE
Authors: Mazakaza Chintu , Odoyo Collins
Published: June 2022

Purpose: To assess how women entrepreneurs have been impacted by microfinance.

Methodology: Brief review of the literature.

Findings: Microfinance has been one of the development tools used to empower disadvantaged women entrepreneurs.  The microfinance sector is increasingly being seen to be lucrative and the recent profit focus by new players in this sector and the effects of the COVID 19 pandemic are likely to reduce the social performance gains. 

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy:  There is theory that access to microfinance by women leads to women empowerment, improved livelihoods and decision making. The literature review supports the theory but also highlights that microfinance on its own cannot succeed without addressing other socio economic challenges such as gender violence. Future studies needs to take an in-depth view of the socio economic challenges and how they can be mitigated once women are empowered.

Published: June 2022

Background/Purpose: Research papers provide the path for the expansion of knowledge, allowing for the emergence of new information and the avoidance of duplication of previous research effort. Researchers use their paper to convey their findings to the rest of the world. However, owing to problems such as processing fees from journals, an inefficient review procedure, a lengthy processing time, and the closure of journals, the research community has encountered a major hurdle. In order to overcome this issue, we propose in this study a system known as the Open Platform for Research Article Sharing (OPRAS), which would allow the author to publish his or her paper utilizing a peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture.
Objective: To get an understanding of the research article publication process and the issues it faces, in order to propose OPRAS, a new system that will employ a peer-to-peer architecture to share research articles.
Design/Methodology/Approach: Data from websites, research papers, and other sources are collected, analysed and presented using ABCD analysis.
Findings/Results: With the help of research articles that are published in journals, researchers can tell the world about their work. But authors can't publish their findings because of different problems, which makes it hard for society to learn new things. In this paper, a method for a new system called Open Platform for Research Article Sharing (OPRAS) utilizing the P2P architecture was put forward after looking at the different steps and problems that come up when publishing an article.
Originality/Value: A new system has been presented based on the relevance of research articles and an understanding of the problems in publishing research papers, which will attract the attention of the research community and lead to additional improvements in the proposed technique.

Authors: ÖZKAN Hakan
Published: June 2022

Man, who was created with the purpose of zoning and reforming the earth and serving his Lord, can be the subject of good or evil due to his nature. Satan, who is overcome by his arrogance and pride even though he believes in Allah, does not give consent and surrender to the divine decree, disobeys his Lord and is ungrateful, so he is expelled from divine mercy. In the study, it is aimed to determine the relationship between belief, knowledge and action determining the relationship between arrogance and obedience, rebellion and ingratitude, based on the example of the devil.

The basis of envy and ingratitude is arrogance and pride. The fact that man does not need or lack the Creator, associates them with himself without being grateful for the blessings and opportunities given, and sees himself as absolutely sufficient. Arrogance as a demonic attitude; includes cruelty, worship of desire, envy and ignorance. Boasting against the truth and truth causes frustration for people as well as in the example of the devil.

In this study, arrogance, concepts related to arrogance, the relationship of arrogance with obedience will be discussed.

Published: June 2022

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) grew enormously over the years. Hand gesture recognition technology brought a brand-new era to the artificial intelligence branch of human-computer interaction. Hand Gesture-based communication is one of the most effortless and natural methods. Identifying and interpreting hand gestures from a continuous sequential stream of input data is called gesture recognition. Amateur or aged people find it hard to identify and press the exact alphabet that they need. Overcoming this difficulty stands as the ultimate goal for our proposed system. Typing has taken many forms, first using a keyboard, gradually changing to touch screens, and now too much easier finger motion tracking systems. The gesture is made by the user is detected by the machine via the image processing techniques and the operation unique to the machine is carried out, thereby minimizing the requirement of any hardware input device. This paper proposes a virtually controlled system that uses hand gestures and voice to perform operations. The system will allow the user to manage cursor, keyboard, and writing functions using hand gestures, and also provides the user with an additional feature to convert the user’s voice to text. The proposed system utilizes a webcam as an input device. This application will add a brand-new era of HCI implementation for educational purposes.

‘Too Young to Remember, Determined
Never to Forget’
Authors: Fridman Orli
Published: June 2022

This chapter discusses the work of younger memory activists in Belgrade,
which I refer to as the second generation, and the ways this generation
articulates their mnemonic claims and practices concerning Serbia’s
recent difficult past. It also examines processes of continuity and change
in memory activism in Serbia, from variations on the way activists express
their mnemonic claims, to innovations in mnemonic practices unveiled
alongside the continuation of already established commemorative rituals.
Memory activism addressing the war in Kosovo is also explored in this
chapter, as well as additional memory work related to the mass graves in
Batajnica. The chapter ends by capturing acts of resistance to the glorification
of war crimes and war criminals, and memory activism as protest.
Money Matters in European Artworks and Literature, c. 1400-1750

Money Matters in European Artworks and Literature, c. 1400-1750 focuses on coins as material artefacts and agents of meaning in early modern arts. The precious metals, double-sided form, and emblematic character of coins had deep resonance in European culture and cultural encounters. Coins embodied Europe’s power and the labour, increasingly located in colonised regions, of extracting gold and silver. Their efficacy depended on faith in their inherent value and the authority perceived to be imprinted into them, guaranteed through the institution of the Mint. Yet they could speak eloquently of illusion, debasement and counterfeiting.

A substantial introduction precedes essays by interdisciplinary scholars on five themes: power and authority in the Mint; currency and the anxieties of global trade; coins and persons; coins in and out of circulation; credit and risk. An Afterword on a contemporary artist demonstrates the continuing expressive and symbolic power of numismatic forms.
Identity, Agency, Motion: Taylor’s
Twelvepence and the Poetry of Commodity
Authors: Johnson Heather G.S.
Published: June 2022

“Identity, Agency, Motion: Taylor’s Twelvepence and the Poetry of Commodity”
examines John Taylor’s 1621 curious poem A Shilling or, the Travailes of Twelve-pence
as a record of one keen observer’s attempt to grapple with the rapidly changing
social and economic dimensions of seventeenth century London. The essay argues
that as the poem re-imagines the shilling as a person with a life history and agency
of its own, it bears witness to a human world increasingly defined by relations with
money and marked by the weakening of social ties (exemplified by the slavery
that haunts the twelvepence’s travels). The humanizing and centring of the coin
provokes a dehumanizing and de-centring of its human servants, including the
poet himself.
Speaking the Sinitic
Authors: Yuan Ye
Published: June 2022

In the beginning of the eighteenth century, Japanese scholar Ogyū Sorai
promoted translation study (yakugaku). This study advocated a ‘direct
translation’ method to render Chinese texts into everyday Japanese,
to counter the fundamental problem of the kundoku (reading by gloss)
method: its paradox of being a translation yet concealing its translational
nature. To promote direct translation, Sorai encouraged reading and
understanding Chinese texts in their own acoustic and grammatical
forms, which he called ‘Chinese language’. Sorai’s ‘Chinese language’ and
its practice, the tōwa (contemporary spoken Chinese) study, epitomize
the pre-1900 Sinitic concept of ‘language’. This writing-imbued ‘Chinese
language’ manifested the vitality of Sinitic writing and the intricate
relation of voice and text, as well as of China and the Sinitic.
Imagined Orality
Authors: Ling Xiaoqiao , Kyun Oh Young
Published: June 2022

This chapter studies Mun Hanmyŏng’s 1885 manuscript edition of a
thirteenth-century Chinese play The Western Wing. In his effort to make
sense of the play (in classical Chinese with patterned colloquial elements
and steeped in a performance tradition foreign to late nineteenthcentury
Korean readers), Mun sought commonalities between the
play and the literary Sinitic tradition in Korea by invoking orality as
a hermeneutic device. Drawing upon words from Confucian teachers,
the poetic canon, and spoken Korean expressions, Mun was able to
‘translate’ the play not by crossing linguistic and cultural barriers but
by aligning an unfamiliar linguistic experience within Chosŏn’s existing
Sinitic tradition in an imagined textual continuum, thus reinforcing
the act of reading as an emotionally charged, communal experience
for moral cultivation.

Assim, esse estudo experimental aborda o tema Cinética Química, assunto relacionado ao nosso cotidiano que auxiliará no desenvolvimento do saber científico. Material e Método: O estudo foi realizado como uma prática teste em casa visando reproduzir a prática experimental em sala de aula com alunos do nono ano do ensino fundamental. Para tanto utilizou-se comprimidos efervescentes a fim de avaliar a velocidade das reações. Resultados: É possível observar que antes da prática ser realizada na sala de aula ou no laboratório, é necessário testá-la a fim de analisar como será o desenvolvimento durante a aula se serão necessários ajustes e a possibilidade de desenvolvimento de prática com materiais alternativos. De extrema importância também se faz o diagnóstico do conhecimento antes e após a prática experimental para suprir lacunas no processo de ensino aprendizagem, pois a experimentação no ensino de Química constitui um recurso pedagógico importante que pode auxiliar na construção de conceitos. Conclusão: Assim, a atividade aqui demonstrada poderá contribuir para que o aluno se interesse e desperte para o conhecimento, desenvolvendo a capacidade de compreender os diferentes fenômenos químicos presentes no nosso dia a dia. Apresentando uma possibilidade de adaptação para levar a experimentação para a sala de aula no caso de escolas que não têm laboratórios.
