rate of use of carbon dioxide by a plant in the process of photosynthesis. Problem What is the relationship between light intensity and the rate of photosynthesis? Pre-Lab Discussion Read the entire investigation. Then‚ work with a partner to answer the following questions. 1. What are the variables in this experiment? Identify the manipulated and responding variables and two controlled variables. The manipulated variable is light intensity. The responding variable is pH. Controlled variables

Part 1 dilutions participated as a trail run to gather around the “full enzyme” that was used for the other parts of the experiment. Part 2 readings were in the time span of 10 minutes and the final results show a spontaneous increase in the first minutes of the absorbance readings. They then showed a steady reading towards the end of timing. The amount of enzyme is decreasing as the dilution occurred. The activity it catalyzes measures the amount of enzyme present in the reaction (Introduction to

In this experiment‚ we used simple distillation and extraction to do synthesis of 1-bromobutane. The experiment was carried out by mixing 13.3 g of sodium bromide‚ 15 mL of water and 10 mL of n-butyl alcohol in a 100 mL round bottom flask. We cooled the mixture and added 11.5 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid. Then the mixture was heated at reflux with a short condenser for 45 minutes and then we drained out the condenser. We removed the condenser and distillation head was set up to set up the condenser

The purpose of this experiment was to test the tonicity of potato cells. The potato cells were placed in different test tubes with water and were left there for 15 minutes. The percent change in mass is then used to determine if the cells lost or gained water‚ therefore determining the tonicity of the cell. Although it was a brief short time‚ the final results showed that the more water the potatoes were placed in‚ the more hypotonic the potato becomes. Tonicity is stated to be the state of a solution

Lab #5: Refraction of Light Theory: Refraction can be defined as the bending of a wave when it enters a medium which causes it to have some reduced speed. In terms of light‚ refraction occurs when the ray passes through some medium which slows its speed; such as water or glass. In this instance the ray tends to bend towards the normal of the medium. The amount of bending or refraction which occurs can be calculated using Snell’s Law (). Objective: To measure the index of refraction of Lucite

pleasant‚ fruit-like odors and are the chemicals responsible for the odors and flavors of many fruits (oranges‚ bananas‚ pineapples) and flowers. In most cases‚ such natural products get their properties from a mixture of organic compounds. In this experiment you will prepare two esters of o-hydroxybenzoic acid‚ more commonly known as salicylic acid. One of the esters‚ acetylsalicylic acid‚ is aspirin‚ the common analgesic. We will synthesize aspirin by mixing salicylic acid with acetic anhydride. The
