ring stand filter paper stirring rod charcoal sand foul water sample rubber tubing pinch clamp iron ring plastic cup scoop Objective/Purpose: To purify a sample of foul water using oil-water separation‚ sand filtration‚ and charcoal adsorption and filtration. Procedure: First‚ you have the measure the foul water sample and record it in your data table. You have to record what you see and smell before you filter anything out. Then you have the separate the oil from the water using

Problem How can you tell pigment separation by using Chromatography? Objective To prepare a chromatogram‚ separate pigments in a leaf and interpret the chromatogram. Hypothesis If I am to put a chromatography paper into a solvent‚ then it would separate the pigments depending on their Rf value. I think the pigments will separate in this order: Chlorophyll A‚ Chlorophyll B‚ Carotene‚ and Xanthophyll. Introduction Chlorophyll is the molecule that absorbs sunlight and uses its energy

Filtration is commonly the mechanical or physical operation which is used for the separation of solids from fluids (liquids or gases) by interposing a medium through which only the fluid can pass. Oversize solids in the fluid are retained‚ but the separation is not complete; solids will be contaminated with some fluid and filtrate will contain fine particles (depending on the pore size and filter thickness). Filtration is also used to describe some biological processes‚ especially in water treatment and sewage

Name: Affiliated Institution: Course: Date: Water Filtration The methods used in this experiment are simple filtration methods which are used by many water companies worldwide. In this experiment simple lab equipment was used‚ after contaminating water with various contaminants the water was filtered by using cheesecloth‚ sand‚ activated charcoal and alum. The contaminants used in the experiment are the most common and the most hazardous. They include; cleaning detergents

Drosophila melanogaster is reared in specific conditions and its salivary gland extracted to study endomitosis. I hypothesize that I will see endomitosis in the salivary gland chromosome of third instar larval D. melanogaster. My prediction to test my hypothesis is that polytene chromosomes will be formed if endomitosis occurs. Materials

While the hypothesis is never explicitly stated‚ it is safe to assume that the researchers’ hypothesis is that coffee does in fact‚ prevent the development of high blood sugar. The question used to form this hypothesis was‚ does the ingestion of coffee prevent the development of hyperglycemia in mice? 2. The control group in this study would be the 11 mice that were given the water. They would be considered the

HYPOTHESIS Using train conductors as representatives for all of human kind we can postulate with some accuracy the percent of the population of Earth that are complete and total assholes. If you have ever lived in a small town with train tracks running through it you will know that the conductor of the train is required to sound the whistle at every crossing. This is a 4-part whistle; 2 long‚ 1 short‚ 1 long. My hypothesis is that we can calculate what percentage of the population of planet Earth

Gel filtration GEL FILTRATION OF PROTIENS Aim: The aim of this experiment is to identify proteins from a complex mixture using the gel filtration technique also known as size exclusion chromatography. This technique is widely used by biochemists when proteins larger than the pores are excluded from the column and the smaller molecules elute last and then collected in test tubes for examination by spectroscopic techniques. The red/brown proteins‚ in particular‚ will be observed closely

Lab title: Natural Selection Lab Purpose: * To understand natural selection and its effect on population. * Increase‚ decrease‚ survival and adaption Hypothesis: If I have a pink/yellow environment then the pink/yellow organisms will tend to survive. Ind. Variable: color of dots Dep. Variable: how many dots survive Constants: Environment‚ 6 colors/ amount of colors Materials: Cloth color: Pink (dark‚ medium‚ lights) yellow‚ paper dots: pink‚ blue‚ yellow‚ brown‚ green‚ and peach
