Conclusion: The purpose of this lab was to synthesize and purify aspirin. The theoretical yield was calculated to 3.766g. The actual yield of pure aspirin was 2.863g with a yield of 76%. The percent yield indicates that our synthesis was a success but the yield is low and indicates that some of the aspirin was lost during synthesis. Some reasons for loss can result from human error such as loosing product from sticking on the spatula and the Buchner funnel and several weighings. Also‚ when transferring

Anaerobic Respiration Lab Aim: To identify the products of anaerobic respiration in yeast Apparatus and Materials: boiling tubes‚ delivery tube‚ bungs‚ sugar‚ yeast‚ lime water‚ liquid paraffin‚ Bunsen burner Procedure: Water was first boiled in the boiling tube. A small amount of sugar was then dissolved into the boiled water‚ which was allowed to cool. A little bit of yeast was added then stirred. Apparatus was set up as shown in Figure 4. A layer of liquid paraffin was added to the surface

The Sustainability Lab introduced what defines sustainability and how important it is in any environment through the simulation of a fictional island environment. It showcased what steps and requirements are needed to maintain an environment without it plunging into deterioration‚ plagued with barely a few to none resources to unlimited desires. Subsequently‚ both the data table and the graph display a direct correlation between the number of people in the island environment and the number of water

Lab Report: Purpose: The Objective of this lab was to learn how to measure the pH (or acidity) of commonly known fluids‚ using the correct tools and procedures. To then use that data to document the changes noticed when mixing those same fluids and changing their respective pH levels. Materials: In order to conduct this experiment several pieces of equipment and other materials were needed. The first item was a graduated cylinder‚ which was used in order to measure out the precise

Starting with the largest distance‚ place either one or two ends onto your partners skin (ALTERNATE RANDOMLY so the partner can’t guess!!!) 7. Have lab partner tell you how many ends they can feel. Do this 5 or 6 times. 8. Then try the next smaller distance and repeat steps 6 and 7. 9. Record

Beet Lab By: Sumeet Grewal Purpose: The purpose of this lab was determining the effect of surface area on the beets ability to interact with the environment. Three similar sizes of beets were assigned. Each beat was cut up into different sizes as one large piece‚ two smaller pieces and eight tiny pieces. All three different slices of beets were placed in their own containers and tested. Observation: While the lab was going on‚ it was noticed the tiny pieces of beet were doing the best while the

As chart 1.4‚ 2.4 and 3.4 displayed the object dropped off of the 90 degree slope was the quickest to cross 200cm‚ had the highest velocity and the highest acceleration. This was because at 90 degrees the gravitational

A. What is the name of the pigment that captures light? Chlorophyll B. Why does the pigment appear green? It absorbs other colors of light such as red and blue‚ so in a way the green light is reflected out since the pigment does not absorb it. 2. List two variables besides the wavelength (color) of light which might affect the rate of food production in plants. Light intensity and carbon dioxide 3. Why is chlorophyll important for all biological life? It is necessary for photosynthesis which
