Lab Report 8 April 15th Exercise 8: Chemical and Physical Processes of Digestion Lab Report Questions Activity 1 What is the difference between the IKI assay and Benedict’s assay? IKI assay detects the presence of starch‚ and the Benedict assay tests for the presence of reducing sugars as well as IKI turns blue black whereas Benedict is a bright blue that changes to green to orange to reddish brown with increasing levels of maltose What was the purpose of tubes #1 and #2? Why are they

Rachel Rodriguez Anthony Chirumbolo December 8‚ 2011 Chemistry I‚ Pd 11‚ Station K Evidence of Chemical Change Purpose To observe several chemical changes (reactions) and the evidence they exhibit for chemical change. Data See page 3 Analysis The two terms that describe possible energy change in a chemical reaction are Exothermic‚ for example when a gas is formed when Copper II Chloride and Aluminum are mixed‚ and Endothermic‚ for example when copper II Hydroxide is heated

Evelyn Ramos CHEM LAB 201-003 Professor Ruddock Experiment #4 - Chemical Reactions Performed: 3/6/13 DUE: 3/13/13 Pre Lab Questions: 1. Before you can write a chemical equation‚ what must you know? You have to know what the products and reactants are. 2. What observations might you make that suggest that a chemical reaction has occurred? If a gas is produced or precipitates are formed that indicates chemical reaction. Also‚ if color changes occur or

simple soluble substances. There are two types of digestion – chemical digestion and mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion involves breaking up large pieces of food into smaller pieces. This provides a large surface area for the action of enzymes on food. There is no change to the chemical composition of food during mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion occurs in the mouth (mastication) and in the stomach (churning). Chemical digestion involves the action of enzymes. Large insoluble food

Cultural‚ Biological‚ Physical and Chemical An entirely different perspective is brought into focus as we consider some of the environmental hazards that accompany industrial growth and intensive agriculture. Some of the most dangerous hazards in this world are the outcome of purely voluntary behavior --- in particular‚ smoking tobacco and engaging in risky sexual activity. We will look at four classes of environmental hazards: Cultural‚ Biological‚ Physical and Chemical (Wright & Boorse‚ 2011)

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE PERIOD 3 OXIDES These pages explain the relationship between the physical properties of the oxides of Period 3 elements (sodium to chlorine) and their structures. Argon is obviously omitted because it doesn’t form an oxide. A quick summary of the trends The oxides The oxides we’ll be looking at are: |Na2O |MgO |Al2O3 |SiO2 |P4O10 |SO3 |Cl2O7 | | | | | |P4O6 |SO2 |Cl2O

The progress of the reaction was monitored in my case using two TLC plate. It first started off with the spotting of Standard benzoin and benzil which were provided in the lab and followed by the addition of the reaction mixture at once it starts changing colour/boiling‚ then at 10 and 20 mins into the reflux. Once all the necessary steps were spotted‚ the TLC plate was placed in in a beaker containing CH₂Cl₂(methylene chloride)‚ which was used as the developing solvent in this experiment. To check

AP Biology I Investigation 6 AP Bio: Lab 6 Cellular Respiration Introduction Some knowledge that is needed before performing this lab are as follows: First of all‚ cellular respiration is the metabolic processes whereby certain organisms obtain energy from organic molecules. This process includes glycolysis‚ the Krebs cycle‚ and the Electron Transport Chain. Glycolysis is a process that takes place in te cytosol and it oxidizes glucose into two pyruvate. Glycolysis also makes ATP and NADH. The

Introduction The purpose of this lab was to explore the properties of an unknown compound. An unknown was given and a cation flame test and anion test was performed to determine the identity of the compound. Once the identity was determined‚ the properties were explored. Experimental To determine the cation of the compound‚ a cation flame test was performed. A bunsen burner was lit until a medium blue flame was burning. The given unknown was scooped onto a nichrome wire loop. The wire was held

Abstract The “Chemical Kinetics” experiment was done to investigate the changes in the rate of reaction under the effect of concentration‚ temperature‚ and presence of a catalyst. It was determined that as the concentration of reactants and the temperature increases‚ the rate of the reaction increases as well. Also‚ the reaction was run by the presence of catalyst‚ and the rate of the reaction increased drastically in the presence of it. The order of the reaction with respect to each reactant
