I.Purpose The purpose of this lab is to show how potential energy and kinetic energy is shown and transferred using a model rollercoaster. This lab also demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Energy. II.Introduction Potential and Kinetic energy have a very big relationship. The Law of Conservation of Energy states that “Energy cannot be destroyed or created‚ but can be transformed or transferred.” This lab will help demonstrate this law and show the conversion between Kinetic and Potential

McLean 1 Creating Acetylene Gas Introduction The purpose of the lab was to determine the ratio of air to acetylene results in complete combustion of acetylene gas. The balanced chemical equation for this experiment was C2H2(g) + O2(g) --> CO2(g)+ H2O(l). Complete combustion is the reaction of an element or compound with oxygen to produce the most common oxides and energy. Complete combustion occurs when the fuel and oxygen combine in exact proportions to completely burn the fuel

are devices that keep pH within maintainable boundaries so something can function. When something is too basic (has too much OH-) the buffer adds H+ and vice versa in order to create water to keep the pH at an acceptable range. Each group (I was with William Yung for this experiment) was tasked with testing one homogenate. The homogenate tested by our group was liquid spinach. Each team added HCl and NaOH to their homogenate. As we found out in our experiment‚ HCl was an acid so when added to the

One of the main learning experiences of this lab is to learn the importance of calibrating a sensor. In most cases‚ a sensor will not have an output that is exactly what you need. An example of this is a strain gage. A stain gage gives back a voltage‚ but with that given voltage a distance can be found. Introduction: In this experiment‚ the QNET-MECHKIT was used. This board has multiple compact sensors that can be used for experiments. For this lab we will be using the strain gage to find the

Conditions of Temperature‚ pH‚ Boiling and Competitive Inhibitors By Robin Caserta BIO 101 September 30‚ 2013 ABSTRACT The enzyme‚ peroxidase‚ extracted from a turnip was tested for its efficiency in binding to its substrate and its stability under several conditions. To do this‚ we tested effects on peroxidase activity‚ first‚ with different amounts of the enzyme‚ next at temperatures of 4oC‚ Room Temperature‚ 32oC‚ 48oC and boiling; then‚ at pH 3‚ pH 5‚ pH 7 and pH 9; and‚ finally‚ with the

ABSTRACT: This lab allows us to observe the conversion of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen gas. An enzyme known as catalase facilitates this decomposition reaction. The catalase enzyme acts as catalysis‚ helping lower the energy needed to activate the reaction while the enzyme itself is not affected. Catalase is a digestive enzyme used to break down hydrogen peroxide‚ which is a normal byproduct of cellular respiration. The reaction could take place without the help of catalase‚ but

Lab 3 : Techniques in Microscopy Title : Preparation of light microscope observe cell organisms. Objective : To observe and investigate the cell structure under the light microscope. Introduction A microscope is an instrument used to magnify and resolve a specimen. It is important to know several important features of microscopy which involves magnification‚ resolution and contrast. Magnification is the enlargement of a specimen while resolution is the ability to distinguish detail or the
