Cyclohexane Lab Report
The experiment is separated into two sections involving different solvent conditions, which include acetone and cyclohexane. A stock solution of 3.0 mM SP in acetone was prepared and diluted to 100 mL of 0.30 mM SP. In addition, a stock solution of 0.1 M TFA in acetone was prepared prior to the experiment. From the stock solutions, a four samples were made with varying SP concentrations ranging from 0.05 and 0.30 mM. Further, four SP samples were prepared with the addition increasing TFA concentration. For each solution, we used a UV light source to generate MC in the solution and waited for the sample to turn into a different color. The samples were recorded using a UV-Vis spectrometer. In addition, the absorbance of the first sample was

    UV/VIS spectroscopy was used to analyze the absorption spectra of the many solutions in this experiment. It was chosen for its ability to collect absorption data quickly and efficiently. A Target Factor Analysis program was used to treat the UV/VIS data collected. Target Factor Analysis was used as the calculation method instead of CLSR due to it taking into account the interference2.…

    Ethylene Lab Report

    The gaseous hormone ethylene has been shown to influence a diverse array of plant growth and developmental processes, thus it is critical for plants to optimize the ethylene production at developmental transitions as well as during stress response. Ethylene is derived from the amino acid methionine, which in the first step is converted to S-adenosyl-methionine (AdoMet) by AdoMet synthetase3,4. The 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic acid Synthase (ACS) catalyzes the conversion of AdoMet to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC)5, which is the rate-limiting step in ethylene biosynthesis. ACC is then converted to ethylene by ACC oxidase (ACO), a member of the oxygenase/oxidase superfamily of enzymes6.The ACS plays a central role to regulate ethylene production through changes in ACS gene expression levels and the stability/activity of the enzyme. ACS proteins can be divided into 3 groups (type-1, 2 & 3) based on their C-terminal domain and the presence of phosphorylation sites. Type-1 and -2 ACS isoforms contain phosphorylation sites for kinases, but type-3 lacks of the phosphorylation sites.…

    There are three different major types of spectroscopy techniques covered in our practical, which includes Ultraviolet-Visible Light Spectroscopy, Infrared Spectroscopy and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy & Atomic Emission Spectroscopy. The use of spectrophotometry in the analysis of chemicals quantitatively and qualitatively is common, since they’re readily available and generally easy to operate, at the same time giving fairly accurate and consistent results. The choice of instrument depends on the wavelength region of choice, which in turn depends on the nature of analyte, either they are coloured or can be changed into coloured derivatives; whether they contains functional group that absorbs light in the UV or Infrared region; or even other absorbing species that depends on the analyte present in the same phase.…

    Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space(volume). Mass is a body of matter with no definite shape or size. A physical change is a change that doesn’t involve a change in the substances chemical identity. A physical change is one that commonly includes changing between the states of solid, liquid, and gas. The physical changes that occurred in the lab would include: mass of steel wool, ice and water, and the dissolved sugar. A chemical change is one that involves a reaction and can’t be brought back to normal after the change is done. A chemical change results in the formation of a new chemical substance. The chemical changes that occurred in the lab would include: sodium carbonate and calcium chloride, burning steel wool, and dissolved Alka-Seltzer. The system is the chemical reaction that happens and the surroundings are what goes on around the reaction. When we mixed the sodium carbonate and the calcium chloride during the lab, the chemical reaction that was going on when we mixed them was the system; everything around it was the surroundings. The definition of the law of conservation of mass is: matter cannot be created nor destroyed, only its form can change. In the lab, we burned a wad of steel wool. After being burned it appears that the mass of the wool is shrinking but really it is just changing form. If you gathered all of the bits after the burning of the wool, they would combine to equal the same mass that the wool originally weighed. Examples of possible error in the lab could have been that the scale wasn’t super accurate and the weight measures could have been off. Another error could have been that people didn’t accurately poor the right amount of chemical into the vial.…
