Acids‚ Bases‚ and pH Lab In this lab the testing of whether or not a substance was an acid or a base occurred. Each substance was tested with the indicators red litmus paper‚ blue litmus paper‚ pH paper‚ phenolthalein‚ bromthymol blue‚ and phenol red. While the substances were tested the group noticed that the substances tested with the red and blue litmus paper‚ the phenolthatein‚ bronthmol blue were the easiest to interpret. The color changes that occurred when this indicator was put into a substance

The Grignard Reaction Abstract Through the use of the Grignard reaction‚ a carbon-carbon bond was formed‚ thereby resulting in the formation of triphenylmethanol from phenyl magnesium bromide and benzophenone. A recrystallization was performed to purify the Grignard product by dissolving the product in methanol. From here‚ a melting point range of 147.0 °C to 150.8 °C was obtained. The purified product yielded an IR spectrum with major peaks of 3471.82 cm-1‚ 3060.90 cm-1‚ 1597.38 cm-1‚ and 1489

The purpose of the lab was to find out the chemical elements based on the color of the flame that elements make by their reaction. The work we completed in the lab was testing the chemical effects of the flame from the chemicals. We tested different elements and wrote down our observations. I accomplished the knowledge of testing chemicals and making responses based on our observations.Electrons are the particles found in the chemicals that may be responsible for the production of colored light.

The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize triphenylmethanol from a Grignard reagent. The Grignard reaction technique was used in this synthesis but due to the fact that it is such a strong nucleophile and base‚ it was important to prevent water from interfering with the Grignard reaction. Purity of the product was determined by measuring the melting point. Reagent Table: Structure Name Molecular formula Molar mass Density Melting point Boiling Point Diethyl ether C4H10O

Lab report April 14‚ 2013 Abstract: In this article‚ we will experiment on the significant in strength of the enzyme by using three different test tubes and measuring the amount of product they give off. To determine this we are going to test the amount of color absorbance by using a special tool to help us understand our results. We will see how our end results show the effect of the amount of concentration we apply to each test tube. The results would be shown by the support of two graphs

Purpose Determine which kinds of reactions involve electron transfer as the driving force. Background Redox (reduction-oxidation) reactions include all chemical reactions in which atoms have their oxidation state changed. So‚ when a metal and a nonmetal react‚ there is an ionic bond formed‚ which means one of them loses electrons while the other gains them. Since this reaction involves the exchange of electrons it is termed as a redox reaction. The oxidation states in a metal- nonmetal are simple

Examples of synthesis reactions: 1. Metal + oxygen → metal oxide EX. 2Mg(s) + O2(g) → 2MgO(s) 2. Nonmetal + oxygen → nonmetallic oxide EX. C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) 3. Metal oxide + water → metallic hydroxide EX. MgO(s) + H2O(l) → Mg(OH)2(s) 4. Nonmetallic oxide + water → acid EX. CO2(g) + H2O(l) → ; H2CO3(aq) 5. Metal + nonmetal → salt EX. 2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s) 6. A few nonmetals combine with each other. EX. 2P(s) + 3Cl2(g) →

Determination of Ka for a Weak Acid Introduction In the experiment preformed the objective is to titrate a weak acid with a strong base. In a titration of a weak acid with a strong base the titrant is the strong base and the analyte is a weak acid. The reaction that will occur is the direct transfer of protons from the weak acid to the hydroxide ion. The data gathered will be represented on the titration curve‚ a graph of the volume of titrant being the strong base plotted against the pH .The

BIO 211 Lab Section 11 February 15‚ 2012 Effects of Temperature on Enzymatic Activity Abstract Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. As this movement increases‚ collision rate and intensity‚ and therefore reaction rates‚ increase. This experiment was conducted to determine if there is a minimum temperature that increase kinetic energy and denature enzymes to slow enzymatic reactions or fail to catalyze them. The experimental results indicate an increase in temperature will increase reaction

Introduction DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is a double stranded helical structure used to store genetic information in cellular organisms. DNA usually consists of two strands made up of nucleotides‚ each with a backbone of repeating units of phosphate groups and the sugar‚ deoxyribose‚ bonded by phosphodiester linkages. Since the deoxyribose has a specific orientation‚ DNA molecules have directionality so that DNA sequences are read 5’ to 3’. The 5’ end of DNA is characterized by the deoxyribose
