Engineering B45 Concrete Lab Report Introduction: Concrete is a mixture of sand and rock or similar inert material (aggregates) held together by a cementing material. Usually the cementing material is Portland cement‚ but sometimes binders such as asphalt or gypsum are used‚ in which case the concrete may be called asphaltic concrete or gypsum concrete. Properties of concrete are governed not only by the properties of its ingredients (cement‚ water‚ sand‚ and coarse aggregate) but also‚ to a great

Does concentration affect the speed of chemical reactions? Problem: We are proving that “concentration” (the amount of reactants) is one of the things that can affect the speed of chemical reactions. We are also finding a way to keep the lid on the film canister for the longest period of time. We are using vinegar and water as reactants and changing the concentration every time to see the difference between the rates of reactions speed. Materials: - 1 graduated cylinder - 1 film canister

baking Yeast helps raise the dough and also yeast is used in the process of making wine.The Reason why yeast was chosen to was to see how yeast can metabolize different sugars and how much Co2 they release when when metabolizing.To test the yeast at the lab we used 4 different types of carbohydrates which are known as Glucose‚Lactose‚Sucrose‚and Starch.The main thing that make some of these carbohydrates different from each other is if it’s a Monosaccharide‚ Disaccharide‚or Polysaccharide. Monosaccharide

Abstract Photosynthesis is a food making process for algae and plants. The photosynthesis process rate varies from different wavelengths and intensities of light. This lab will evaluate the optimal wavelengths and degrees of intensity during photosynthesis when chloroplast is exposed to light. The mixtures of DCPIP with water‚ PO4 buffer‚ and chloroplast will be prepared in a number of cuvettes. The cuvettes were tested individually at different wavelengths and intensities to find the optimal rate

Title: Observation of Macroscopic Chemical Changes‚ Alice Kimbrell‚ Chemistry 101-DS01:74589‚ 5/31/2013. Purpose: In this lab‚ I will observe macroscopic changes that occur when mixing together certain chemicals and household cleaners. The mixing of the chemicals provided with each other and with acid/base indicators demonstrates how matter can change‚ and how chemistry can be seen with the naked eye. By mixing household cleaners with an acid/base indicator I hope to demonstrate how these

2014 Lab 7 Report Lights Distance and Wavelength Effect on Photosynthesis Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are often mistaken as the same thing. Although they are similar in many ways‚ photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the exact opposite of each other. Not figuratively‚ but literally the reverse (Photosynthesis). They incorporate the others products while adding some outside energy to create a never ending cycle. This brings us to the photochemical and biochemical reactions of photosynthesis

EXPERIMENT Materials 200 Toothpicks Timer Tape Controls 50 toothpicks per trial. 120 seconds per trial. The same brand of toothpicks. One toothpick broken at a time (except for Mutation Trial 2). One toothpick broken into two pieces equals one reaction. Broken toothpicks cannot react again. (Toothpicks can only be broken once) The toothpicks are broken between the thumb‚ index‚ and middle finger (toothpickase). Break two toothpicks at a time (Trail 3). Tape the index finger and thumb. (Trail 2)

Enzymes are responsible for multiple reactions that take place naturally in the living organisms. The purpose of the enzymes lab was to investigate how the enzymes play a role in a reaction‚ affecting the rate of reaction (ROR). Interestingly‚ we tested how the enzymes affect the reaction rate at multiple temperatures (0‚ 23‚ 37‚ 50‚ 70‚ and 95 C). It was predicted that an increase in temperature will elevate the thermal activity of substrate which increases the chances the substrate molecules will

multiple variables were tested in specific concentrations; that test the reaction rates of the enzyme catalase over a fixed period of time. The major conclusion was that catalase reacts faster in warm temperatures that are neither freezing nor boiling‚ catalase performs well in lower concentrations than the substrate‚ and catalase prefers neutral pH levels around 7. Introduction Enzymes are proteins that catalyze metabolic reactions vital for the survival and functioning of cells [1]. Without enzymes
