    Comments on 1st draft of the 2nd Writing Assignment.

    Very clear abstract.
    In-text citations are needed. In the introduction, you mentioned a previous study conducted by Crowl and Louvar, but you didn't include any information about them, and there was no reference page.
    Need to separate results part and discusion part. You may talk about the statistics in the results part, and talk about some future applications in the discussion part.
    In the methods part, you may talk about how you came up with each Methane Conc. that you tested so that the audience understands you paper better.
    Expand more on your study. How does this result affect the University of Iowa and how is it new in this field besides it is a new set of data? Are there any other findings during the study? If you include these questions in your paper, it would be much better.
    Above all, it is a very concise paper with precise experiment design and data.

Lower and Upper Flammability Limits of

I will be doing my second major writing assignment on lower and upper flammability limits of methane in air in standard Iowa weather conditions. Due to the nature of the assignment and my topic it is likely that I will have to focus on one of the limits, not both. LFLs and UFLS have been widely tested across many conditions, however slight variations in temperature, pressure, humidity, air composition, and many other factors may have effects on the LFL and UFL. Recently I conducted a laboratory experiment on LFLs among other things, and therefor already have the data. Data was collected using a flammability chamber built by Fauske & Associates. LFLs and UFLs are extremely important chemical property data because they essentially give the % volume concentration range at which a gas will burn in air under different conditions. This is very important information because it may be used to both transport and store gasses so that they are less likely to explode or cause a fire.
