Experiment 3: ANALYSIS OF UNKNOWN ACID SAMPLE USING TITRATION METHOD Date of Experiment: 4 September 2012 Introduction An acid-base titration is a procedure used in quantitative chemical analysis to determine the concentration of either an acid or a base. Titration is the slow addition of an acid (or a base) of known concentration from a burette (a narrow graduated cylinder) to a base (or an acid) of unknown concentration fin an Erlenmeyer

is an often-used method for purifying solids. Recrystallization works by taking advantage of the different solubility properties of compounds‚ and allows impurities to be removed from crude solids. Performing a recrystallization is usually a straightforward task. First‚ you add a small amount of solvent to the impure compound in a flask‚ and heat the contents until all the material has dissolved. Then‚ you cool the solution‚ allowing crystals of purified solid to crash out of solution‚ while undesirable

Lab Report Microscopic Study: Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Lab Report Investigating Osmosis in Red Blood Cells Introduction: The flow of water across a permeable membrane is called osmosis‚ and during this process‚ water moves down its concentration gradient. A solution surrounding a cell is hypertonic if it contains more solute particles than the inside of the cell‚ and the water will move out of the cell into the surrounding hypertonic solution by osmosis. If the solution

was then filtered and washed several times by using double distilled water to get rid of the inorganic ions as impurities. The crude product was washed repeatedly using acetone‚ filtered and dried at 80 °C for 12 hours in the oven. The dried fine solid was calcined at 600 °C for 5 hours. The hydroxyapatite product was chemically modified by mixing with aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (figure 2) to enhance its abilities in biological system. The transportation ability of sulfasalazine by this drug carrier

Lab Report Microbiology Introduction Bacteria can be found almost anywhere. For human life‚ some help us‚ some hurt us‚ and others are neutral. It is now known that good bacteria‚ or normal microflora‚ can reach 1014 microbial cells. This is far more than the 1013 cells that make up the human body (Tannock‚ 1995). The total number of bacteria on Earth is estimated to be around 4-6 x 1030 (Horner-Devine‚ 2004). It is important to know the extent of bacteria‚ how they live‚ and how they are

Aim: To Find and test the Iron content in different food sources INTRODUCTION: A Redox titration was used in order to perform this experiment. Reduction/oxidation (redox) process occurs when electrons are transferred from a donor species (the reducing agent) to another acceptor species (the oxidizing agent). It happens between an analyte and a titrant. A redox titration is done just as a normal titration is done‚ however instead of titrating an acid against a base‚ an oxidizing agent is titrated

Genetics of Drosophila Lab Report: The test of heredity in fruit flies In my testings with breeding the fruit flies‚ I learned that the purpose of breeding them was to test how genetics pass from generation to generation‚ also known as heredity. We attempted to breed the flies and get them as close to a 9:3:3:1 ratio as possible. This would lead to an acceptable trait ratio. My hypothesis was that if we were to breed the flies in a stable environment‚ the most common fly (or the fly with the highest

For this lab‚ the expected outcomes are that when the heart rate and blood pressure are measured‚ both will increase when the heart has to pump against gravity‚ after exercise the heart rate will increase then return to normal‚ and as the subject inhales‚ it will be lower than when they exhale. Methods For this lab report‚ the laboratory manual (2009) was used for all labs. While completing lab five‚ electrodes were hooked up to the subject. After calibration for this lab‚

Grade 11 physics: SPH3U1-01 | Physics Lab Report | Specific Heat Capacity of Brass | | Jin Jin Shi | 2012/12/6 | Instructor: Mr. Nailer | I. Introduction The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a solid body depends on its change in temperature (ΔT)‚ its mass (m)‚ and an intrinsic characteristic of the material forming the body called specific heat (cp). The heat is calculated from the equation II. Purpose The purpose of this laboratory is to determine

in an autoclave; paranitrophenol thus obtained is further reduced to paraminophenol by using iron powder. Para-aminophenol crystallises out from the mother liquid which is subsequently centrifuged. Para-aminophenyl crystal is then reacted with acetic anhydride to produce pure paracetamol. The reactions are summarised as shown below: Lab scale manufacture Paracetamol can be easily prepared in the laboratory using phenol. Phenol reacts with sodium nitrate and separate para nitro phenol from
