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

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

Ammonia and Hydrochloric Acid Lab Chemistry 1 Abstract The straw should be cut shorter to 8 cm in order to make the solid ring appear in the center of the straw. We achieved our goal‚ cutting the straw caused the gases to not have to go as far‚ and meet in the middle. Background The particles in a gas are very loose and tend to move around a lot very quickly. The particles in a solid are very compact and vibrate but don’t really move very much. The particles in a liquid however are more

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

The three conditions tested were the effect of peroxidase concentration on the rate of the experiment‚ the effect of pH of the rate of peroxidase activity‚ and the effect of temperature on the rate of peroxidase activity. During the lab‚ the lab group tested 7 test tubes‚ including 1 blank‚ with different amounts of pH 5 buffer‚ H2O2‚ Peroxidase‚ and Guaiacol. After the certain amount of mL per substance was mixed‚ the absorbance readings for the effect of peroxidase concentration were
