Abstract

It has been done a study on the determination of sodium (Na) and calcium (Ca) levels in seawater at Posona Village. The aims of this study were to determine the levels of sodium (Na) and calcium (Ca) in seawater in Posona village. The tools used were an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) and a flame photometer. Seawater samples were taken in the morning and afternoon in 3 distance points: 50 meters, 100 meters, and 150 meters from the edge of the land surface of the seashore. The level of sodium (Na) was measured at wavelengths of 589 nm while calcium (Ca) at a wavelength of 422.7 nm. The results of the study obtained the sodium levels in the morning samples with a distance of 50 m, 100 m, and 150 m amounted of 18.076 mg/L, 18.395 mg/L, and 18.715 mg/L. While the afternoon samples for the sodium (Na) levels was 18.475 mg/L, 18.742 mg/L, and 18.249 mg/L, respectively. The results of the analysis of calcium levels in the morning samples were 8.431 mg/L, 8.8 mg/L, and 7.661 mg/L, whereas in the afternoon for calcium (Ca) levels were 9.415 mg/L, 9.231 mg/L, and 7.692 mg L, respectively.

Abstract

Seagrass is one of the macrophyta plants containing enough biomass. Recently, seagrass has been used for filtering waste, drugs and sources of chemicals. Seagrass also functions to stabilize the soft bases where most species grow, especially with solid root systems and cross each other.  Therefore, seagrass has the potential to absorb heavy metal ions from the solution. This research aimed to determine the optimum weight and optimum contact time for Pb metal adsorption. Weight variation of seagrass biomass was 60, 90, and 120 mg while variation in contact time was 60, 90, and 120 minutes. The results obtained optimum weight of seagrass biomass to absorb Pb metal was 60 mg with 98.42% Pb absorbed, and optimum contact time for seagrass biomass to absorb Pb metal was 60 minutes with 95.45% Pb absorbed.

Abstract

The growth of technology has encouraged learning toward blended learning which combines e-learning-based learning with the conventional face-to-face learning system. The use of MOODLE software to created web-based virtual class and the benefits of social interaction, making blended learning to has a more flexible and efficient time with more varied learning media. This research aimed to determine the effect of the implementation of blended learning based on MOODLE on student chemistry learning outcomes at class X in SMA Negeri 3 Poso. The research was conducted by giving treatment to the experiment class 1 (n = 32) and repeating the same treatment to the experiment class 2 (n = 33). The average pretest value in experiment class 1 was 19.06 and in experiment class 2 was 20.30. While the average of posttest value in experiment class 1 was 76.50 and in experiment class 2 was 73.00. The test of hypotheses was conducted using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test with criteria is, if –Ztable ≤ Zcalculate ≤ +Ztable then H0 is accepted. The value of Zcalculate in experiment class 1 was -4.93 and in experiment class 2 was -5.01. Based on the data, it been concluded that there was an effect of the implementation of blended learning based on MOODLE on student’s chemistry learning outcomes at class X in SMA Negeri 3 Poso.

Abstract

Cage plants (Canavalia virosa) are classified as nuts. This study aims to prove the flowers of the cage plants as acid-base indicators and determine the type of acid-base titration that is suitable for indicators of cage plants. The flowers of the cage plants were macerated with ethanol. Extras were tested as indicators in acid-base solutions, buffer solutions, and compared with phenolphthalein and methyl orange for acid-base titration, namely: strong acid with a strong base, a weak acid with a strong base, and weak base with strong acid. The results obtained in this study, namely: flower extracts of cage plants in strong red acid, in weak acid pink, in strong green bases, and weak bases in light green. In a buffer solution of pH 1 to pH 11, the flower extract of the cage plants gives 4 color groups, namely: a buffer solution with pH 1 colored red, pH 3 colored pink, pH 5 to pH 9 being light green, and pH 11 being dark blue. Cage plant flower extract can be used as an indicator of acid-base, cage plant flower extract can be used on strong-base strong acid titration, strong weak-acid base, and weak-strong base acid titration.

Abstract

This study aimed to know the effect of applying the inquiry learning model with lesson study (LS) pattern on student learning outcomes in colloid system material in class XI SMA Negeri 1 Sigi. This type of research was a quasi-experiment with an equivalent post-test design. Samples were determined by the purposive sampling method. The sample used in this study was students of class XI MIA 3 as an experimental class with 24 students and XI MIA 4 students as a control class with 20 students. The processing of student learning outcomes data used a non-parametric analysis of the Mann-Whitney U-Test test. The results showed that the mean value of the experimental class was higher than the control class, which was 23.98>15.82. Results of statistical analysis sig. 2-tailed was (0.019) <0.05 and Zcalculation (-2.336) < Ztable (-1.96), based on decision-making criteria, it stated if the value of -Zcalculation<Ztable then H0 is rejected. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is the effect of applying the inquiry learning model with lesson study (LS) pattern on student learning outcomes in colloid system material in class XI SMA Negeri 1 Sigi.
