LABORATORY 3 The Effect of Temperature on the Rate of PNPP Hydrolysis Partners: Shelby Cruickshanks Alexis Williamson Introduction Most of the chemical reactions‚ which occur throughout our bodies‚ would proceed at a much slower rate of reaction without the presence of an enzyme. Cells can not wait for centuries for molecules to break down‚ if they waited for that‚ there would be no way for the organism to obtain energy or in turn survive. This is where biological catalyst comes into

immoral actions are being revealed and should be stopped. Dawn Leamon‚ who worked for a branch of KBR and had told her excruciating story to The Nation a week before‚ told them “With my back to the packed room and my voice (mostly) steady—I was being sodomized and forced to have oral sex with a KBR colleague and a Special Forces soldier two months earlier”. When she reported the incident to her KBR supervisors‚ instead of receiving justice and help‚ she hit a series of obstacles. She was told to

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Jesus Flores March 30th‚ 2015 Abstract: This experiment was conducted in order to discover the Kc‚ equilibrium constant‚ of a hydrolysis reaction of an unknown ester #2‚ unknown acid‚ and alcohol #2 products. The first week consisted of creating the reaction mixtures in bottles‚ next was preparing a NaOH solution while neutralizing with KHP. The final week consisted of titrating the bottles with the NaOH solution prepared previously

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Julia Stanley CHM 152 LL Dr. Asmita Kane Budruk Goal of the lab: The purpose of this laboratory is to determine the equilibrium constant‚ Kc‚ for the acid-catalyzed reaction between an unknown ester and water to produce an unknown alcohol and an unknown carboxylic acid. I was using Unknown Ester #3 with a density of 0.9342 and Molar Mass of 74.08 g/mol; alcohol with density 0.7914 and Molar Mass 32.04 g/mol. Chemical

For Acidic hydrolysis‚ SAC was found to be well susceptible to acid hydrolysis with 0.05 M HCl at 40 ˚C for 30 min caused about 8% reduction in the peak area of SAC (Fig.4a). While this mild condition didn’t affect VAL. While‚ nearly 27% was the reduction in SAC’s peak area when subjected to alkaline hydrolysis. This considerable decline in the peak area of SAC when subjected to 0.01 M NaOH at 40°C for 30 min revealed degradation products peaks appeared at 3.339 and 9.482 minutes (Fig.4b) and they

Abstract: The main reason for this experiment is to prepare a simple soap made from vegetable oil. The physical properties will be tested in order to demonstrate the reactions that occur. The experiment can conclude that the vegetable oil had a primary fatty acid called linoleic acid‚ which was evident during the saponification reaction. The simple soap did appear to be a good emulsifier because the soap did dissolve in the mixture of mineral oil and water. In hard water the calcium and magnesium
