Evelyn Ramos CHEM LAB 201-003 Professor Ruddock Experiment #4 - Chemical Reactions Performed: 3/6/13 DUE: 3/13/13 Pre Lab Questions: 1. Before you can write a chemical equation‚ what must you know? You have to know what the products and reactants are. 2. What observations might you make that suggest that a chemical reaction has occurred? If a gas is produced or precipitates are formed that indicates chemical reaction. Also‚ if color changes occur or

Experiment 1 Cyanobacteria Oxygen Production Through Photosynthesis Date Performed: September 2‚ 2014 I. Introduction a. Background Cyanobacteria or blue green algae are renowned for their tolerability and susceptibility even in wide range of environmental conditions‚ a characteristic of many primitive organisms. CNB are believed to be the agents of autotrophic origin of life thus they probably represent the survivors of the earliest photosynthetic plants‚ along with photosynthetic and chemosynthetic

Experiment 1: The Effects of Coal Mining Coal mining‚ particularly surface mining‚ leads to large areas of land being temporarily disturbed. The mine workings collect and conduct water that is in contact with the widespread pyrite‚ a mineral that produces iron and sulfuric acid when exposed to air and water. In this lab‚ you will see first-hand the reasons why mine drainage can be harmful to the local drainage system if left untreated. Materials: (3) 100 mL Beakers 1 tsp. Crushed pyrite 1 tsp. Activated

Experiment E: Post lab Natasha Buckiewicz (130361780) IA: Matt Halloran Due: November 26‚ 2014 1. This experiment followed GCP number 8 which is reduce derivatives. This experiment did not use unnecessary derivation since the reaction was not modified in any way. No additional reagents were required so it did not generate a lot of waste. 2. Safer solvents and auxilaries (GCP #5) was not used in this experiment since the experiment used a solvent to complete the reaction. The reaction used both

2/28/2013 Introduction: Hess ’s law is a terminology in chemistry named after Germain Hess‚ a Swiss-born Russian chemist and physician who published it in 1840. The law states that the total enthalpy change during the complete course of a reaction is the same whether the reaction is made in one step or in several steps. Enthalpy cannot be directly measured‚ but rather the change in enthalpy. Enthalpy is described as the change in kinetic and thermal energy. Hess’s law states that the enthalpy change

It would be nearly impossible to have the transportation of vesicles without kinesin to guide it. And without the transportation of these synaptic vesicles to release their neurotransmitters‚ there would be no movement in the cell at all. This experiment is so important because vesicle transport in neurons helps to identify many neurological disorders. One such example is a research on Drosophila. Since there is only one kinesin light gene in the subject‚ the mutants in that one chain gene exhibit

Experiment #4 (10/31/14) Lab Review Objective To introduce the basic molecules of life and to test for their presence in different substances. Introduction Macromolecules are in all forms of life. These organic compounds are carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids. These are monomers and they link together into long chains that form polymers. Different reagents can be used to find the presence of these macromolecules. Proteins are made of carbon‚ hydrogen‚ oxygen‚ nitrogen‚ and sometimes

Extended Experimental Investigation | May 28 2013 | Drosophila melanogaster lab experiment Question: How do the dominant or recessive genes in particular traits in a cross between a male and female Drosophila determine the traits of its offspring? Aim: to establish whether characteristics produced from the offspring of a drosophila cross are recessive or dominant traits. Hypothesis: If certain phenotypes are expressed in the offspring from the cross of certain Drosophila‚ then the determination

Edward Dickson CHE101 DS-01 Experiment Date 7/21/2013 Report Submitted 7/21/2013 Title: Experiment #8: Ionic Reactions Purpose: In this lab we will work with aqueous solutions of ionic substances and determine if they are soluble. If the solution appears milky than it is known as a precipitate reaction‚ meaning it is soluble‚ and that the ions separated and became surrounded by water. Precipitates in this experiment are electrically uncharged. To identify which compounds are

BEER’S LAW EXPERIMENT 3 Amanda Buchanan – September 20‚ 2015 Chemistry 1212 – Section 50 OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this experiment are to understand why and how spectroscopy is used to determine the components and concentrations of a solution‚ describe various types of spectroscopy‚ describe the visible and ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum‚ define Beer’s law and define the relationship between absorbance and transmittance. Other learning objectives are to create a Beer’s
