    Ellen Grant Honors Bio I Organic Compounds Problems and Objectives: The purpose of this lab was to select the suitable test for an organic molecule and define the safe process for that test. An organic molecule is normally found in or produced by living systems. (Unknown Author‚ 2014‚ www.biology-online.org/organic_molecule)In this lab one was supposed to infer the results of the test and be able to identify if major biomolecules are present. You were to analyze a variety of tests including

    different solvents Practical conducted on 5 March‚ 2013 Reported by Pham Vu Hung on 10 March‚ 2013  Introduction: This practical is meant to measure the rate of reaction of the hydrolysis of tertiary-butyl chloride –a colorless‚ liquid organic compound at room temperature that is sparingly soluble in water - in water/acetone and water/isopropanol mixtures. Since there are many influencing factors for the rate of reaction‚ all are kept constant but the intended variable: the solvents. If the

    Review Sheet Exercise 1 Cell Transport Mechanisms and Permeability Activity 1: Simulating Dialysis (Simple Diffusion) • Describe two variables that affect the rate of diffusion: Two variables that affect the rate of diffusion are size and concentration gradient. The molecular size vs the MWCO size of the membrane can either increase‚ decrease‚ or prevent diffusion. The greater the concentration gradient the greater the diffusion rate due to molecules moving from areas of higher concentration

    cell’s membrane structure suited to its functions? Throughout the past century‚ scientists have been able to conduct more research on the structure of a cell membrane and understand its components and functions. The present agreed on model‚ created in 1972 by S. J. Singer and G. Nicolson‚ is called the fluid mosaic model. This model depicts that proteins (integral and peripheral) form a mosaic since they are floating in a fluid layer of phospholipids‚ which makes up the components of the cell membrane

    Beet Cell Lab Purpose: The purpose of this Lab was to see how much pressure or stress the beet tissue would hold. Hypothesis: I hypothesize that the higher % of the solvent that the higher the colour intensity will be shown on the ph colour scale. The lower the solvent then the less colour shown. Materials: *Test Tubes (4) *Cork Borer *Beets *Water *1% Acetone *50% Acetone *1% Methanol *50% Methanol Procedure: *Cut 4 uniform cylinders of beet using a cork borer with a 5-mm

    Organic chemistry Organic chemistry is one of the ‘branches’ of chemistry and is seen as distinct from other branches‚ such as inorganic and physical chemistry. It can be described as the chemistry living processes (often referred to as biochemistry) but extends beyond that. It focuses almost entirely on the chemistry of covalently bonded carbon molecules and as well as life processes‚ it includes the chemistry of other types of compounds‚ including plastics‚ petrochemicals‚ drugs and paint

    Also‚ the nature of the solvent can affect which substitution reaction will occur. Polar protic solvents typically favor SN1 reactions. This is because the SN1 mechanism is carried out in two steps and the polar protic solvent produces both a cation and an anion which are capable of stabilizing the charges on the ions formed during the reaction. Because an SN2 reaction occurs in one step‚ this is unfavorable; however‚ the SN2 reactions tend to favor polar aprotic solvents. Another factor affecting

    1.A) Two main forms of cells exist: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and do not have membrane-bound nucleus or membrane- bound organelles‚ but do have: plasma membrane‚ cytosol and cytoplasm‚ and ribosomes. Prokaryotes contain much less DNA than eukaryotes and have circular chromosomes. Eukaryotic cells have information processing organelles‚ such as the nucleus which houses most of the cell’s DNA‚ and ribosomes which use information from DNA to produce proteins

    educator Friedrich Froebel designed‚ the organic unity of a Japanese building Wright saw at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893‚ and a Jeffersonian belief in individualism and populism. Always a believer in architecture as "natural" and "organic‚" Wright saw it as serving free individuals who have the right to move within a "free" space‚ envisioned as a nonsymmetrical design interacting spatially with its natural surroundings. He sought to develop an organic unity of planning‚ structure‚ materials
