As mentioned above‚ bacterial growth rates during the phase of exponential growth‚ under standard nutritional conditions (culture medium‚ temperature‚ pH‚ etc.)‚ define the bacterium’s generation time. Generation times for bacteria vary from about 12 minutes to 24 hours or more. The generation time for E. coli in the laboratory is 15-20 minutes‚ but in the intestinal tract‚ the coliform’s generation time is estimated to be 12-24 hours. For most known bacteria that can be cultured‚ generation times

Sodium thiosulfate is safe to handle and store‚ but if it is mixed with an acid‚ a reaction happens. When dilute sodium thiosulfate is mixed with an acid‚ solid sulphur is made‚ which makes the solution appear cloudy. The reaction also makes small amounts of toxic sulphur dioxide gas. You will choose one factor and investigate this factor’s effect on the rate of reaction between sodium thiosulfate and dilute hydrochloric acid. A colorimeter is a device used in colorimetry that generally refers to

Global Warming and Acid Rain INTRODUCTION The phrase Global Warming has become familiar to many people as one of the important environmental issues of our day. Many views have been expressed concerning it‚ from the doom-laden to the dismissive. There is little debate that the earth is undoubtedly warming. It has been the subject of intense debate for decades now. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and industrial gases from fossil fuels play a huge role in why our environment is changing

Acid Rain Lab #1 Chem. 1 20 February 2016 Concordia University Texas Angelina Luna angelinaluna97@yahoo.com Chem 1- Sect C Acid Rain Lab #1 Professor Koeck Abstract In this experiment our main objective was to create three gaseous oxides CO₂‚ SO₂ and NO₂ by using data that was collected using a pH sensor which was connected to a laptop with LoggerPro and Vernier. We created the gases by bubbling each gas into the water to create the three acidic solutions we were looking for. Once that

Acid-Base Titration Objectives: 1. To titrate a hydrochloric acid solution of unknown concentration with standardized 0.10M sodium hydroxide. 2. To utilize the titration data to calculate the molarity of the hydrochloric acid. Materials: See handout for more info. Procedure: See handout for more info. Data and Calculations: Table 1: Volume of NaOH Required to Neutralize 10.00mL of Unknown HCl Molarity of NaOh | Trial 1 | Trial 2 | Trial 3 | Trial 4 | Initial Volume of NaOH(mL)

effects that acid rain has or does not have on seed growth and germination. The observation gathered from this experiment was that regular rain water that has a neutral pH is a better solution for seed growth. The seeds that were watered with the well water prospered more than the ones grown in the lemon juice solution. The results from this experiment were a little confusing‚ because in the first trial the seeds watered with well water germinated more than the seeds watered with the acid rain solution

Experiment 28: The reaction of Butanols with Hydrobromic Acid Pre-lab Objective: The objective of this experiment is to synthesize 1-bromobutane and 2-bromobutane with different catalyst:substrate ratios to determine which ratio is the most economically favorable. Discussion: In this experiment‚ 1-butanol or 2-butanol will be converted to the corresponding alkyl bromide with HBR‚ while using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The sulfuric acid will accelerate the chemical reaction with being consumed

and is a strong acid. Where comparing to the conductivity of distilled water to HCL would be evidently HCL. This is because distilled water doesn’t contain ions‚ hence no movement of electrons‚ furthermore no conductivity. However since we added sodium chloride‚ distilled water will have some conductivity but no where near the amount of HCL. Comparing to the conductivity of vinegar to HCL mostly relays on how acidic each other are. Since HCL is a strong acid and vinegar is a weak acid‚ this will impact

has no effect on the percentage conversion‚ but helps to speed up reaction. Without the catalyst the reaction would be extremely slow. Stage 3: Making Sulphuric Acid In principle‚ you can react sulphur trioxide with water to make sulphuric acid. In practice‚ this produces an uncontrollable fog of concentrated sulphuric acid. Instead‚ the sulphur trioxide is absorbed in concentrated sulphuric acid to give
