Purpose: To find the percent of sugar by mass in chewing gum

Hypothesis: The percentage of chewing gum that is sugar for bubble gum is 30%, 20% for juicy fruit and 25% for stride gum.

Mass Of Juicy Fruit Mass Of Bubble Gum Mass of Juicy Fruit unchewed | 7.12g- 1.72 = 5.4 g | 5.80g- 1.72g = 4.08 | 4.52g- 1.72g = 2.80g | chewed | 3.00g- 1.72g= 1.28g | 2.24g-1.72g =0.52g | 2.86g-1.72g= 1.14g | Percent of Sugar | 3.00g x 100/ 5.4 = 55.5% | 2.24g x 100/ 4.08 = 54.9% | 2.86g x 100/ 2.80 = 102.1% |

2. The average percent of sugar in my gum was 70.8%. Compared to my classmates data our average percentage of sugar was higher than most people in the class. This was due

    Gummy Bear Lab Report

    When combining one gummy bear, which is composed mostly of sucrose with molten potassium chloride, a violent reaction occurs. A surprising amount of energy us released by the reactant, and in process, the atom and molecule rapidly rearrange to form 3 products(CO2/H2O and KCl). This reaction is said to be products favor. A favoured product reaction is where almost all of the reactants, react to form products. In this case its sucrose and potassium chlorate react completely to form carbon dioxide, water and potassium chloride. This reaction is exothermic, releasing energy in the form of heat and light (we can see flame a bright light during the experiment). The energy released is also equal to the calorific content of the Gummy- Bear. This reaction…

    Absolute Concentration Lab Report

    There were six sucrose solutions: 0.0 M (distilled water), 0.2 M, 0.4 M, 0.6 M, 0.8 M, and 1.0 M. The dependent variable was the mass of the cores of apple tissue. Changes in the dependent variable were measured by weighing the mass of each set of apple cores before and after its submerging in sucrose solution. The initial mass was then subtracted from the final mass and divided by the initial mass to calculate the percent change of each set. Changes in the dependent variable were analyzed in the form of percent change of mass rather than change in mass in grams because each set of apple cylinders had a different initial weight, so calculating percent change helped standardize the data. The control of the experiment was the distilled water because it has a molarity of 0.0 M, meaning that no sucrose is added to it. Several variables were held constant. It was attempted to keep the size of each core of apple tissue constant. Other constants include the ruler and scale used to measure the apple cores, as well as the knife used to cut the…

    Gummy Bear Lab Report

    The purpose of this lab was to observe osmosis in the Gummy Bears and to investigate the movement of water in and out of a Gummy Bear. The hypothesis stated that the salt will make the gummy bear weigh more, but it will keep the gummy bear more intact. However, the results showed that the gummy bear decreased in mass because of the salt and water. This contradicts the hypothesis because of how it was believed that the gummy bear would increase in weight, but it did the exact opposite. One part of the hypothesis was correct though because the gummy bears were whole and were not broken or damaged. It was noted that the more salt there is in the solution, the more intact the gummy bear is, whereas one group’s gummy bears, who only had one Mol…

    Chewing Gum Research Paper

    Gum is in a ring structure made up of Oxygen, Carbon, Hydrogen. A gum base puts the “chew” in all chewing gums, by providing a smooth, soft texture. Chewing gum comes in pieces and many various colors depending on the flavors. Gum is made to be chewed, not eaten like other candies. Gum is not soluble in water. The gum base cannot be chemically broken down. Only things that are soluble are flavor, food coloring than the base could not be dissolved. Gum was invented by Walter E. Diemer in the 1920s. He was only 23 years old when he invented gum. Walter did not mean to create chewing gum. Today, Cinnamon, spearmint, and peppermint are the most popular flavors of gum. The largest bubble ever blown was 23 inches in diameter in 1994. Studies have…

    High Fuctose Corn Syrup Research Paper

    Richard Alexander is the author of “Sweeteners: nutritive.” Throughout his book he examines and compares prevalent sweeteners used in many food products. Alexander includes a table explaining the relationship between five widely used sweeteners; sugar, honey, HFCS 55, HFCS 42, and saccharin. Using sugar as the basis for comparison for sweetness, Alexander evaluated the level of sweetness for each of the four other sweeteners. He examined HFCS 55 and 42 for his study. The “55” and “42” represents the percent of fructose within the syrup’s formula. Concluding his experiment, Alexander found that HFCS 55 is equivalent to the sweetness of sugar as well as honey. On the other hand, HFCS 42 is only 92 percent as sweet as sugar. He also found that saccharin was 300 to 500 percent sweeter than sugar (Alexander,…

    Extra Gum Commercial Analysis

    The commercial that makes you laugh is good, but the commercial that hits you right in the “feels” is the one that you remember. Everyone can easily recognize the sad music that plays during the animal cruelty commercial. The hurting, sad eyes of the puppies and kitties stare into your soul and scratch your heart. Every time you hear that song, you think of those poor animals struggling; however, the emotional connection you make with a commercial (or the brand itself) is not limited to sadness. It may simply remind you of an instance in your life. In its first commercial, Extra Gum plays the emotion card. “Origami” tell us a story without even saying a word. Extra Gum’s commercial about a dad, his daughter, and origami cranes successfully creates an emotional connection between the viewer and the brand; it grabs…

    Enzyme Concentration Lab Report

    Most people choose hydrogen peroxide over rubbing alcohol to clean a wound since hydrogen peroxide doesn’t burn. However, when hydrogen peroxide is treated on deeper wounds into the flesh, it can pose numerous problems to cellular health. When hydrogen peroxide is used correctly to clean wounds, it becomes an oxidizer and can be used as a disinfectant to prevent infections. However when used incorrectly, hydrogen peroxide can cause oxidative stress on cells. This essentially means that there is an imbalance on molecules containing oxygen and the cell cannot detoxify the products. This creates free radicals such as hydroxyl radical that will damage all components of the cell, ultimately killing it (Tucker, 2012). However, humans actually produce…
