Abstract In this lab we separated components of a simulated preparation‚ panacetin and making use of its acid base properties. To obtain such a pure compound‚ the compound we want must be separated from its other natural components‚ which can be done by manipulating physical and chemical properties. Panacetin contains sucrose‚ aspirin and an unknown which can be acetanilide or phenacetin in which phenacetin was created and weighed. Introduction In this lab our basic goal was to make the

Separating Substances: Identifying Food Dyes with TLC Background The color of food is an integral part of our culture and enjoyment of life. Who would deny the mouth-watering appeal of a deep-pink strawberry ice cream on a hot summer’s day or a golden Thanksgiving turkey garnished with fresh green parsley? Even early civilizations such as the Romans recognized that people "eat with their eyes" as well as their palates. Saffron and other spices were often used to provide a rich yellow color

You will not need a Scantron. For the open book test‚ be sure to bring any resources you may need including your lab manual‚ lab notebook‚ safety guidelines and handouts. For the practical portion there will be 28 stations set up in the laboratory with something to observe and one or more questions at each

Photosynthesis Lab Report Purpose: To research the effect of different wavelengths (colors) of light on plant growth during photosynthesis. Background Information: Photosynthesis is the process by which sunlight is captured by chloroplasts within plant cells and turned into energy. This energy is used to help the plant grow roots‚ leaves‚ flowers and fruit. Energy is required by living things

component‚ and so on‚ until it reaches the source again. In contrast‚ a parallel circuit is a circuit in which the has more than one resistor and has multiple paths to move along. The main purpose of this lab was to prove the laws of Ohm and Kirchhoff. On another note‚ being able to take part in this lab taught my partner and I the fundamental skills of constructing series and parallel circuit and using a multimeter to calculate the current and voltage of a circuit. I believe that if we only have the

Alhia Harris October 18‚ 2011 Biology Lab report Proteins are very important throughout the body. They have a lot of functions in cells. Antibodies are proteins that help cells rebuild the cells when they are destroyed. Transport proteins move substances from one place to another. Regulatory proteins control cellular metabolism in a way that cells throughout the body can have the right amount of glucose in the blood. A common protein is an enzyme; in cells they speed up chemical reactions. For

et al Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to determine how light affected photosynthesis‚ specifically the production of O2 bubbles. It was predicted that when the light was more intense the O2 bubble production will be high. Conversely‚ when the light was less intense the O2 bubble production will be lower. Basically the plant that is closer to the light will produce more bubbles than the plant that is placed farther away from the light source. In this lab the independent variable is the light

Like all drugs‚ aspirin also has some undesirable side effects which should be noted. When taken in large quantities (several grams per day)‚ gastric problems can result. Its use has been implicated in Reyes syndrome‚ a brain disorder that can affect people under the age of 18. Some people are highly allergic to aspirin. Finally‚ aspirin interferes with platelets and affects normal

that cigarettes release more then 20 carcinogens know to promote lung cancer into your body. (Hecht‚ 2010). When looking at the cilia exposed to cigarette smoke in this lab it is seen that they have been greatly slowed down when compared to the uncontaminated cilia‚ and parts of the cells are covered in tar from the tobacco. For this lab it was hypothesized that smoking will inhibit the ciliary action and lower the quality filter the greater affect will be exhibited by the effected cilia. The prediction
