the process that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen. Cellular respiration captures the energy from food in three main stages: • glycolysis • the Krebs cycle • the electron transport chain Glycolysis does not require oxygen. The Krebs cycle and electron transport chain both require oxygen. • Aerobic pathways are processes that require oxygen. • Anaerobic pathways are processes that occur without oxygen. Comparing Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration The energy

SCIENCE EXPERIMENT REPORT AIM : To show the percentage of oxygen in air. HYPOTHESIS : The percentage of oxygen in air is about 20%. APPARATUS AND MATERIALS : Glass trough‚ gas jar stand‚ metre ruler‚ candle‚ marker pen‚ matches‚ plasticine. Figure 1 VARIABLE : i. kept constant : the size of the candle ii. manipulated : the amount of oxygen inside the gas jar iii. responds : the level of water in the gas jar PROCEDURES : 1. Use some plasticine to fix a

by-product of photosynthesis is oxygen. Plants use some of the oxygen they produce‚ but most of it is released. In the Photosynthesis Lab Gizmo™‚ you can monitor the rate of photosynthesis by measuring oxygen production. 1. Observe the left pane closely. What do you think the bubbles are? ____________________ 2. Select the BAR CHART tab. On the graph‚ notice the Oxygen production bar. Move the Light intensity slider back and forth. How does light intensity affect oxygen production? _________

are considered photoautotrophs which means that they draw energy from the sun and use it to form starch molecules. The process by which this happens is called photosynthesis and results in the formation of oxygen and glucose. Plants take in carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and light then release oxygen back into the air. This process happens because of the movement of hydrogen to the hydrocarbons that are produced during photosynthesis. The discovery of photosynthesis is attributed to Dutch scientist Jan Ingenhousz

I can model Photosynthesis with The Law of Conservation Of matter and The Law of Conservation of energy. I know this because of the articles i’ve read the articles are Discovering the secrets of Photosynthesis‚ Joseph Priestley‚ Discoverer of Oxygen and Photosynthesis: Yucky chemistry Details. Photosynthesis is a good example of the Law of conservation of Energy because in the process of Photosynthesis the radiant energy is absorbed by the plant. The radiant energy is then turned into chemical

ratios of silver and oxygen in the reaction. Hypothesis: Silver oxide decomposes to silver metal and oxygen when strongly heated. Heating Silver oxide causes the oxygen to be driven off‚ leaving only the silver metal behind. The total mass of the products of a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants. Mass of silver oxide = Mass of silver metal + Mass of oxygen The initial mass of silver oxide subtracted by the mass of silver metal corresponds with the mass of oxygen. Procedure: 1. Weigh

Analysis: The end amount of oxygen released in the control for Class Data‚ was 49 mL. The end amount of oxygen released for the hot trial was 78 mL‚ 29 mL more than the control. The end amount of oxygen released for the cold trial was 38 mL‚ 11 mL less than the control. Conclusion: The hot trial produced the most oxygen of all three trials. Heat tends to increase the rate of chemical reactions‚ explained in the article Temperature Effects (Introduction to Enzymes) by Chris Jamison. “Like most

air (oxygen) and water are necessary for iron to rust. The nail in water with air will rust while the nails in dry air and in boiled water with no air will not. I also predict that galvanizing the nail with zinc and greasing the nail and painting the nail and electroplating the nail will inhibit rusting. I also predict that adding NaCl to the test tube with water and air will promote rusting of the iron nail. Background information: Rusting is the chemical reaction between a metal and oxygen in

Devon Backstrom February 5st 2013 PSU Chemistry 222 – Lab 4 Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide Abstract: This lab was designed to observe the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into it oxygen and water. The equation for this reaction is H202 H2O + +1/2O2 thus by measuring volume and pressure of O2 generated the amount of O2 generated can be calculated which in turn can be utilized to determine the concentration of water already in the H2O2 solution. The results determined that 3.02% of the
