Separation of a Mixture of Solids PURPOSE: The purpose of this lab is to familiarize ourselves with the techniques associated with separating a mixture of different solids. We will learn how the unique properties of substances can aid in this process and help us distinguish each pure substance from one another. DATA OBSERVATIONS CALCULATIONS CONCLUSION/DISCUSSION QUESTIONS A. How did your proposed Procedures or flow charts at the beginning of this experiment compare to the actual Procedures

Baking Project There are several chemical reactions taking place in the general baking of cakes. Every ingredient has its own function and causes a different reaction Synthesis: * Egg yolks (modify molecule’s structure) helps the oil-based and water-based components of the cake mix together. When eggs are cooked‚ the protein molecules become uncurled when exposed to heat and create new molecular bonds with other nearby protein molecules. When the egg is completely cooked‚ it helps form a

Chemistry plays an important part in studying Biology. It answers some questions that Biology could not explain alone. Questions like: How does an organism convert foods for energy? How do plants use sunlight and water into all the things that cells needed to grow and reproduce? How does the basic unit of life passed through generation to the next? Here are some contributions of Chemistry in Biology: • Within atomic theory‚ chemistry contributes towards biology in the understanding of atoms

decided that I must know all I can about blood cancer. I had so many questions that I needed answers such as whether this disease was genetically inherited or not. I also wanted to know why blood cancer killed people so quickly. Therefore‚ I made my goal to ensure that I must become an expert in the field of laboratory science after graduating from high school. In my opinion‚ this was the best way to get answers to the many questions I had about blood cancer. I knew that achieving the required grade

A. Role of Chemistry in Society Applications of chemical science have contributed significantly to the advancement of human civilization (1‚ 2‚ 3). With a growing understanding and ability to manipulate chemical molecules‚ the post-World War II chemist was considered a societal problem solver. They synthesized crop-enhancing agricultural chemicals to ensure a constant and viable food supply. They played a significant role in the eradication of deadly diseases by developing life-saving pharmaceuticals

Abstract By adding HCl to 2-methyl-2-butanol‚ through the Sn1 mechanism‚ 2-chloro-2-methylbutane is formed. Water‚ sodium bicarbonate and NaCl(aq) were then added to the 2-chloro-2-methylbutane to remove any of the excess water from the reaction. To confirm‚ a successful reaction‚ AgNO3 was added to the 2-chloro-2-methylbutane. A white precipitate formation confirmed a successful Sn1 reaction. Introduction Nucleophilic substitution reactions such as Sn1 and Sn2 allow us to convert one functional

Absorbance of Light vs. Concentration of Colored Solution Introduction: Performing this lab showed the importance of light in virtual drug screening because light can be used in a variety of ways to obtain different kinds of information in research. Light can be used to determine the concentration of DNA or protein in solution‚ tag different objects such as cells‚ protein structures‚ or bacteria in order to determine whether there is a large amount of a certain substance‚ and to determine the size
