yellow-orange. Their concentration is different for different species and also depends on the time of year. Also‚ these pigments have different solubility in different solvents. Extracted pigments could be used in another project‚ such as chromatography. Attention! This method involves usage of flammable‚ volatile and toxic substances. All work with solvents should be conducted on the open air or in actively ventilated room. Adult supervision recommended for this project! Required Materials

Photosynthesis and Semi-Conductor based Solar Cells Plants‚ by shear desire to survive have developed the worlds most efficient and reliable power supply by way of photosynthesis. Scientist for years have tried unsuccessfully to duplicate the process of photosynthesis. However‚ for the purpose of this paper‚ I will compare and contrast how energy and electricity is generated through photosynthesis and a semi-conductor based solar cell. In addition‚ this paper will explain how both processes

Claire Graham BSC 2010L November 4th‚ 2015 Effects of Light Intensity and Wavelength on Photosynthesis of Spinach Leaves By replacing the air pockets in spinach leaf disks with a bicarbonate solution and allowing the disks to sit in the solution while being exposed to different light conditions‚ we were able to observe the effects of various light intensities as well as colors on the rate of photosynthesis. As the spinach leaves photosynthesized‚ oxygen pushed out the solution and filled the intercellular

Photosynthesis in C3 plants and their adaptations to the Mediterranean Climate Abstract. Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to harness the energy of the sun through light and use it to create sugars. Photophosphorylation is the first step of photosynthesis and occurs in the chloroplast. Light is captured by light harvesting complexes. The light excites electrons which excite surronding electrons through resonance induction and excite special pairs of electrons. These electrons help pump

Thin Layer Chromatography Introduction Thin Layer Chromatography or TLC is a technique used as a separation and identification technique. There are many forms of chromatography‚ but one thing that remains constant throughout all of the types of chromatography is that there is a stationary phase and a mobile phase. In the case of TLC the stationary phase is the silica gel on the TLC tray. Procedure Chromatograph method is a method of separating mixtures of two or more compounds. Two phases

Background Information: When working in a lab‚ scientists often need to identify different molecules that are present in a sample they are studying. There are many ways to identify unknown molecules/chemicals in a sample. The method you will be using today is called Paper Chromatography and consists of 2 steps. First‚ you will separate the unknown chemicals and then you will identify

Gas chromatography is the common method used for the biogasoline analysis. Biogasoline catalytic cracking process requires detailed qualitative and quantitative analysis of the hydrocarbon composition of its oil and fraction. In this analysis‚ their fractional composition‚ saturated vapor pressure‚ density and antiknock rating will be investigated. By knowing the qualitative and quantitative composition of the gasolines‚ the content of n-paraffin‚ isoparaffin‚ aromatic‚ naphthene‚ and olefin (PIANO)
