Ms. Lunsford Honors Chemistry 12/6/2011 Abstract Yeast is widely used for making bread‚ beer‚ and wine. People all over the world drink and eat those products. This projects looks at which fruit juice with a higher percentage of sugar will produce more fermentation. The original purpose of this experiment was to determine the amount of fermentation of 3 different fruit juices after adding a certain amount of yeast. By measuring the type of fruit juice (independent variable) the amount

Water Quality Testing Pre-Lab Mrs. Susil-APES You and a partner will be performing water quality tests on water that you collected from a canal‚ lake‚ or pond. This lab will take two days to complete. You must wear proper laboratory attire (closed toed shoes‚ goggles‚ aprons‚ gloves) in order to participate in this lab. We will meet in the classroom across the hall from 8154. Numbers 1-4 below are due before the lab begins on Wednesday in your lab notebook: 1. Title Creative

There are more than one forms of fermentation; yeast fermentation is probably the most common method. This process is used in many everyday products today. Yeast was first discovered in 1676‚ but was used before. It has also led to numerous scientific advances. Yeast expands‚ especially well with a good amount of sugar‚ the more of the amount the greater it expands. Yeast is a single-celled organism‚ a fungus to be more specific. They consume carbohydrates‚ mainly sugars‚ and produce carbon dioxide

Cervisiae<br><br><b>Description</b> - Yeast is a unicellular organism that lacks chloroplasts. They are so small that it can ’t be seen by the naked eye and they are so small that it would take 4000 of them lined up side by side to measure an inch. <br><br><b>Habitat</b> - Yeast lives on and is nourished by dead or living plant or animal matter. The ideal conditions of yeast is high humidity and temperature‚ plus lots of food. In bad conditions though the yeast produces a second cell wall for protection and the yeast contents

Lab 7: Catalysts Introduction Pre-Lab Questions 1. What is a catalyst? An enzyme is a biological catalyst that speeds up chemical reactions in the body. 2. If you continue to add more catalyst will the speed of a reaction always continue to increase? Explain your answer. It will continue to speed up the reaction until there is more catalyst than the limiting reactant. 3. In this lab you will produce oxygen and water from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Write a balanced reaction equation for this reaction

of different amounts of a substrate on the respiration rate of yeast and to compare this to the effect of different amounts of glucose on the rate of yeast respiration. The substrate which I chose to further investigate was fructose. Fructose is a fruit sugar which is one of the three‚ along with glucose and galactose‚ dietary monosaccharides that are directly absorbed into the bloodstream during digestion. Materials: 2% yeast solution Large beaker Small beaker Conical flask Thermometer

PreLab 1. Describe the different between a LAN switch/bridge and a router. LAN switch/bridge operate at the data link layer(layer2) and works based on the MAC address‚ while a router operates at the IP layer (layer3) and works based on IP addresses. 2. What is the difference between an Ethernet switch and an Ethernet hub? Which is more suitable for a network with a high traffic load‚ a switch or a hub? Explain. Ethernet switch is a store-and-forward device that operates at layer2

dilutions of yeast cell suspension on the number of yeast cells per cm3 that counted using haemocytometer under microscope. Aim To investigate the effect of the different dilutions of yeast cell suspension on the number of yeast cells per cm3 that counted using haemocytometer under microscope. Research Question Do the different dilutions of yeast cell suspension affect the number of yeast cells per cm3 that counted using haemocytometer under the microscope? Introduction “The typical yeast cell

D) Pre Lab Questions: After heating the metal‚ the crucible and contents should mass less than it did before it was heated. This is because heating the crucible may rid of other residue that was left in it; bringing it a to a constant mass. A yellow flame will deposit soot on the crucible. This would be a problem because the soot left on the crucible would vary from our constant
