ABSTRACT In this experiment‚we use a microwave dryer to dry the wet sand . We choose to use a mixture of sand and water because we believe that sand is a solid which possesess both regular and irregular crystal lattice structure ‚ therefore making the movement of water particle easy and decrease faster ‚leading to a short drying time. The measurement of the moisture content is based on the weight sample which is inversely proportional with the temperature and time ‚ though the temperatue is kept

Biology Laboratory Report MEASURING RATE OF WATER UPTAKE BY A PLANT SHOOT USING A POTOMETER Introduction All plants need salts minerals‚ water‚ CO2 and O2. To fulfill their requirements different plants use different ways. Lower plants use diffusion‚ however higher plants use vascular tissue that is located in the middle of the root and in the vascular bundles in the stem. The transpiration is the important process in the plant. The main reason is that transportation

Experiment 2 Title: preparation of a halogenoalkane Objective: To synthesis 2-cholo-2-methylpropane by using corresponding alcohol and HCl(aq). The reaction is via SN1 of tertiary alcohol. Techniques: i) Distillation of the reactant and the product ii) Purification by separating funnel Theory: In the experiment‚ SN1 reaction take place‚ HCl is added to initiate the reaction. The R-OH attack the H+ with the lone pair on O. Then the R-O+H2 bond breaks the release a water molecule and

Experiment 2: Isolation of Eugenol from Cloves Background; Readings on Vapor pressure‚ Raoult’s Law from TRO: A mixture of the essential oils‚ eugenol and acetyleugenol‚ will be steam distilled from cloves. These compounds are isolated from aqueous distillate by extraction into dichloromethane. The dichloromethane solution is shaken with aqueous sodium hydroxide‚ which will react with eugenol‚ to yield the sodium salt of eugenol in the basic

when a system is in a static condition and there is absolutely no changes that occur as time goes by. Vapour-liquid equilibrium is a condition where a liquid and its vapor are in equilibrium with each other‚ a condition or state where the rate of evaporation is equal to the rate of condensation on a molecular level such that there is no overall vapour liquid inter-conversion (Smallwood‚ I. M ‚1993).In theory equilibrium takes forever to reach‚ such an equilibrium is practically reached in a relatively

Title: Rate of transpiration I found interesting to know how different environmental factors affect the rate of transpiration. There are different environmental factors‚ such as light intensity‚ humidity‚ wind and temperature that affect the rate of transpiration. Transpiration is a topic 9 in our Biology higher level book. I have read all the information through this chapter and researched some extra information. Based on this information that I had known I decided to take experiment of environmental

Transport in Plants Matthew H. 9A 131002 Today I will be discussing our experiment and the basics of transport of minerals and water in plants. Transport in plants are called transpiration. Water evaporates from the leaves which cause a type of suction that draws water from the roots. The water travels up via the vascular bundles. This flow of water is called transpiration stream. Some pressure is created forcing some water out of the cells in into the spaces between the cells

Title: Osmosis and water potential Aim of the experiment: Finding the water potential of potato. Biological principles: Independent variable: concentration of the solution. Dependent variable: percentage changed in weight of the potato strips. Controlled variable: size of the potato strips‚ it can be controlled by cutting the length of the strips. Procedure: Table 1.
