The Mass of Acetylsalicylic Acid in Aspirin ------------------------------------------------- Purpose The purpose of the lab is to determine the mass of the ‘active ingredient’ in a commercial ASA tablet. ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- Introduction There are three main theories surrounding acids and bases including the Arrhenius‚ Bronsted-Lowry‚ and Lewis theories. The Arrhenius theory of acids and bases states that

Reconstructing a Cow’s Knee Lab Objective: To learn the function of the knee and how its ligaments work to create the movement the knee makes by taking apart the knee and reconstructing it with different materials to replace the ligaments. Hypothesis: If we replace the cow’s knee tendons with rubber bands then it will work like a new knee because the rubber bands will provide the support‚ strength‚ and flexibility it needs. Safety: Wear gloves while handling the knee‚ use precaution when

department Data security – Lab # 1 Lab Description Set-UID is an important security mechanism in Unix operating systems. When a Set-UID program is run‚ it assumes the owner’s privileges. For example‚ if the program’s owner is root‚ then when anyone runs this program‚ the program gains the root’s privileges during its execution. Set-UID allows us to do many interesting things‚ but unfortunately‚ it is also the culprit of many bad things. Therefore‚ the objective of this lab is two-fold: • Appreciate

Genetic transformation of Escherichia coli with pGLO (Adapted from: Biotechnology Explorer: Bacterial Transformation: The pGLO System. Instructors Guide. BIO-RAD). Objectives a. To understand one of the most commonly used techniques for introducing DNA into E. coli cells and its use in molecular cloning. b. To become familiar with the concept of using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a molecular tag for studying gene expression in bacteria and other organisms.

Tim Readmond AP Biology Lab Report I. Title a. Modeling Diffusion and Osmosis II. Introduction a. If one places a 1.0 M solution of glucose inside a bag and then places that bag into a beaker containing a 1.0 M solution of sucrose‚ the percent of mass lost in the bag is 10.5%. The solution in the bag is hypertonic while the solution in the beaker is hypertonic‚ which is why water moves from the bag to the beaker and the bag loses mass. b. The purpose of this experiment is to see whether

Flame lab test Chemistry Introduction The lab test performed was to determine characteristic colors that were produced by specific metallic ions that are shown in a flame. This happens when an electron gains energy; the electron moves from an energy level that’s farthest away and to an empty orbital close to the nucleus with higher levels‚ so one of the electrons gives off energy. A flame test is a visual test where the energy is in the form of a color change and the change can

Hypothesis: Experimenter thinks the order of the solutions according to their concentration is D‚A‚E‚C‚B‚ from smallest. And the water will pass through semipermeable tubing bag from low to high concentration to thin the concentration inside the bag. Osmosis is a diffusion of water particles and is one of the passive transport

Investigation and Preparation of Esterification Lab Introduction Esters are classified as organic compounds commonly derived from carboxylic acids. They are compounded from the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol in the presence of a strong acid to be used as a catalyst. The formula that represents an ester is R-COO-R where both Rs’ are alkyl groups‚ one which is bonded to an oxygen‚ and the other to a carbon which is double bonded to 1 oxygen and single bonded to the other. Esters
