Introduction‚ aim and hypothesis Chemical reactions are accompanied by the release or absorption of energy. Reactions which release energy are described as exothermic and those which absorb energy are endothermic. The energy released in chemical reactions was previously stored as chemical potential energy in the reactants; this stored energy is called enthalpy. The aim of this practical is to observe and classify chemical processes as endothermic or exothermic‚ based on the changes in temperature

Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to differentiate chemical changes from physical changes. During the separation lab we were given a test tube with Styrofoam‚ sand‚ salt‚ and Iron fillings in it‚ our goal was to issolate each component from the other. We were given certain tools and materials to help us figure out how to divide the components‚ therefore creating our lab. Doing this lab helped us figure out what component used physical change and which used chemical change‚ it also showed us which

Human Digestion April 27th‚ 2014 SCI/241 Erica Leath The digestive system is a very interesting process that takes place after we have eaten a meal or a snack. The digestive system is responsible for breaking down the food that we have eaten and sending the nutrients to the different places in the body. The digestive is so amazing because it recognizes what your body needs and does not need and understands how to separate the two. Just like everything else in our body‚ the digestive

Week 7 Digestion Lecture Study Guide Based on information found in the lecture folder or other sources‚ answer the following questions. 1. What is digestion? Digestion is the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into usable molecules 2. List some other names of the digestive tract. Alimentary Canal (GI Tract) 3. Explain where and how the mechanical breakdown of food occurs. Teeth begin digestion mechanically‚ Chewing (“mastication”) breaks apart food‚ 2 sets

body. You might find yourself asking‚ what does blood have to do with digestion‚ respiration and circulation? Hopefully‚ after the presentation all of your questions will be answered. When a person thinks of digestion they usually think about what happens in the stomach. A lot has happened to digest the food way before it gets to the stomach. It starts in the mouth or oral cavity. It is a process called mechanical digestion. First‚ Mastication begins. Mastication is the chewing of the food

Observations of Chemical Changes Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to observe chemical changes in common consumer products to determine if the chemicals are basic‚ acidic‚ or remain neutral when mixed with other chemicals. Procedure: In this experiment‚ various chemicals were mixed together‚ to determine a reaction. Using two drops from chemical 1 and two drops of chemical two‚ unless otherwise stated‚ then recording the type of physical reaction or color changes that occurred.

Chemical and Physical Changes in Matter Purpose: The purpose is to observe chemical and physical changes and to identify each. Procedure: Do experiments 1-8 as directed by the handout. Data and Results: Experiment | Observations | Type of Change | Supporting Evidence | 1 | -After a few seconds‚ yellow smoke was produced-Wood splinters are becoming black-Bottom part of test tube has black color on the sides-Some woods splinters have been burned to ash-Middle of test tube has yellow

branch of physical science in which deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy. The ability to predict if a chemical reaction will occur spontaneously or non-spontaneously is an important aspect of thermodynamics. Spontaneity is determined from free energy‚ or Gibbs free energy. The equation (1) gives the relationship of how entropy (∆S) and enthalpy (∆H) along with temperature affects the amount of free energy‚ and henceforth the spontaneity. A spontaneous process may be quick

Digestion and Nutrients Briana Smallwood The human body needs nutrients for it to survive. Nutrients are the fuel for the body to do work. It helps the body grow‚ provide protection from sickness and disease‚ function properly‚ and even live. There are many types and forms of nutrients that each do specific or multiple jobs. They are classified in six main groups. Carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ fats‚ vitamins‚ minerals and water are all the different groups. Proteins are nutrients that help build and

EXPERIMENT NO. 12 DIGESTION IN THE STOMACH ABSTRACT____________________________________________________________________________ Digestion refers to the mechanical and chemical breakdown of food into smaller components that can undergo absorption. The objective of this experiment is to investigate mainly the process of digestion in the stomach. The conditions at which the enzymes responsible for the digestion process were determined. Also‚ the total and free acidity of gastric juice of the sample
