Experiment: At this experiment we are investigating does the temperature affect how quickly the particles diffuse to an even concentration throughout the water‚ we are going to do this experiment by using food coloring to see how quick the food coloring diffuse in hot water and cold water. Materials: • • • • • • • • One beaker Hot plate Ice Water Food coloring Thermometer Timer Eye dropper Hypothesis:I think the food coloring will spread faster‚ because the particle in the hot water have more

Microbiology UNKNOWN LAB REPORT Kateryna Petrakova INTRODUCTION Microorganisms cause a great amount of diseases. For healthcare providers it is very important to be aware of what organisms are pathogenic and cause a disease and‚ therefore‚ to find an appropriate treatment. Different microorganisms require various environments in order to replicate and to become dangerous for a person’s health. An integral part of any medical treatment is to be able to recognize and

the unknown organisms in the mixed culture was limited to bacteria that we had worked with previously in lab. Initially a Gram stain was conducted in order to distinguish the unknown bacterium as a Gram-positive and/or a Gram-negative organism (Lancaster and Bennett‚ 2012; Kellenberger‚ 2001). Based upon the results‚ both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria were observed in the unknown mixed culture (Table 1 and Table 2; Kellenberger‚ 2001). In order to isolate the two different bacteria‚ colonies

LAB EXERCISE: Scientific Investigation Laboratory Objectives After completing this lab topic‚ you should be able to: 1. Identify and characterize questions that can be answered through scientific investigation. 2. Define hypothesis and explain what characterizes a good scientific hypothesis. 3. Identify and describe the components of a scientific experiment. 4. Summarize and present results in tables and graphs. 5. Discuss results and critique experiments. 6. Design a scientific experiment

The Scientific Method This experiment was performed by using a systematic approach to identify six unknown substances. In the first half of the experiment six unknown substances were observed than measured by determining volume‚ mass and density. The second half of the experiment the unknown were placed in a test tube and tested for solubility. It was determined that the six tubes contained coffee‚ potting soil‚ brown sugar‚ baby powder‚ baking soda‚ and powdered sugar. By the use of the scientific

Purpose: Unknown mixtures will be separated by means of chromatography in which the mixture will be passed in a solution through a medium leaving behind components of the mixture at different rates‚ therefore‚ different spots on the absorbing substance. This will help determine the identity of unknown mixtures. The spot colors on the strip of filter paper and the Rf values of the unknown samples will be compared to those of known samples. To find the position of the spots on the strip of paper‚ we

hypothesis or question using a systematic method to discover an answer. The key to the concept of research as opposed to simply guessing at answers is the systematic approach it employs. This systematic approach is commonly referred to as the Scientific Method. Without the Scientific Method research would loose its validity because there would be no controls in place to make sure you are measuring or evaluating what you actually set out to find. The scientific method usually begins with some

The scientific method allows scientists to utilize a common approach to address the requirements of the scientific community. These techniques allow other scientists‚ as well as just the layman‚ to know that there has been a standardized system applied to the scientific process. I will present a brief example of what the scientific method is and how to apply it to a real life issue. I have just
