Biuret Test Biuret Test • Biuret Test is a chemical test used to show/detect the presence of peptide bonds‚ which are the basis for the formation of proteins. Explanation In the presence of peptides‚ copper (II) ion forms a violet-colored coordination complexes in an alkaline solution. This test can be used to asses the concentration of protein because peptide bonds occur with the same frequency per amino acid in the peptide. According to Beer-Lambert Law‚ the intensity of the color and hence

reactant in the reaction‚ benzoin + nitric acid benzil‚ was benzoin at 0.00141 moles. This value was discovered by the initial amount of the reactants used: 0.30 grams benzoin and 1.5 ml Nitric Acid (see Eq 1). Using the moles of the limiting reagent benzoin‚ the theoretical yield of benzil was calculated to be 0.296 grams (see Eq 2). Before crystallization‚ the

Determining the Limiting Reactant and Percent Yield in a Precipitate Reaction (SMG 6D) AP Chemistry One example of a double replacement (metathesis) reaction is the mixing of two solutions resulting in the formation of a precipitate. In solution chemistry‚ the term precipitate is used to describe a solid that forms when a positive ion (cation) and a negative ion (anion) are strongly attracted to one another. In this experiment‚ a precipitation reaction will be studied. Stoichiometry

Introduction: In investigation 14‚ “What Factors Affect Chemical Equilibrium?”‚ the purpose was to find out which reagents caused a change in the chemical equilibrium. A deep red color was formed when Iron Nitrate [Fe(NO3)3 (aq)] was mixed with water and Ammonium Thiocyanate [NH4NCS (aq)]. The product of these two reactants was Iron Thiocyanate(FeNCS). After different trials of mixing the given reagents with the Iron Thiocyanate and changing the temperature‚ a new equilibrium was reached and the color changes

The first days in the lab will be used to practice with collecting bare footprints from different individuals using the bare footprint reagent cream. To get access to the lab‚ a Practical Risk Assessment must be made (see appendix I)‚ and three Health & Safety courses must be completed (see appendix II). After practicing with collecting bare footprints‚ the study starts with collecting footprints from six specific participants‚ whose footprints have already been collected by two other investigators

Discussion: For this experiment to occur‚ the limiting and the excess reagents needed to be determined. The limiting reagent was picked based upon the single displacement that was going to occur when the two substances‚ iron and copper(II)sulfate‚ were mixed together in water. Seeing that iron was going to displace copper and take its place‚ it was chosen to be the limiting reagent with the condition that if it was in excess then after the displacement was completed‚ there will be iron precipitate
