accomplished this goal by creating five reactions containing Sodium Sulfate that would confirm our compound and show its chemical properties. In each reaction‚ we replaced the presence of Sodium Sulfate with our unknown. Our first reaction was the reaction from the sulfate anion test between Sodium Sulfate and Barium Chloride. If the compound was in fact Sodium Sulfate it would produce a white precipitate and it did. The second reaction was first between Sodium Sulfate and Hydrochloric Acid‚ and then

this experiment was to use Iodine‚ Benedict and Biuret to test the reaction of the following 12 samples: 1% glucose‚ 0.3% glucose-1-phosphate‚ 1% maltose‚ honey‚ 1% sucrose‚ 1%lactose‚ 1% glycogen‚ 1% starch‚ protein‚ beer‚ distilled water and an unknown solution (test tube: 300). The iodine test for starch was to test how would starch reacted if we put iodine in it. The color of starch before the test was clear. The color of the iodine was brown. When you added iodine into starch‚ the result was

Analysis The 13 Clocks is a fairy tale told by a twentieth century author. Its themes are clearly statements about the moral concerns of the time and perhaps are intended more for adults than for children‚ even though James Thurber used the form of a child’s story.

Thurber had earlier written fairy tales for children as well as

of Chlorine and Iodine in Water I. Introduction The purpose of this laboratory was to determine the amount of chlorine and iodine in a sample of water by titration using a starch indicator and to standardize a sodium thiosulfate solution. Chlorine is added to municipal water supplies to purify it enough to become safe to drink. Iodine is also added to water when people camp or go hiking in the back country where they cannot bring purified water along. Chlorine and iodine are added to kill

The History of Clocks | |The history of clocks is very long‚ and there have been many different types of clocks over the centuries. Not all historians agree on the history of the clock. The word clock was first used in the 14th century (about 700 years ago). It comes from the word for bell in Latin ("clocca").

The clock nowadays are technology that has been taken for granted. The focus of this case study is to show the importance of time measurement and how our life nowadays revolves around it.
