Introduction Extraction is a purification technique used in organic chemistry to separate compounds from a mixture of two or more compounds. There are three different extraction techniques: liquid-liquid extraction‚ solid-liquid extraction and chemically active extraction. All three types of extraction follow the same principle. Organic molecules dissolve in organic solvents and polar molecules dissolve in aqueous solvents. This phenomenon is observed because of the intermolecular forces between

analyze data and draw a conclusion. In this experiment I will find out that in a type of water the Alka-Seltzer will dissolve faster and slower. Alka-Seltzer is one of the world’s best known antacids. Its main function is to absorb excess stomach acid. II. MATERIALS: * Tap Water - Warm Water * Cold Water - Salt Water * Acidic Water -5 cups (250 mL of water in each cup) * A whole Alka-Seltzer tablet III. HYPOTHESIS: My hypothesis is that the Alka-Seltzer tablet

BUFFERS By: Luis P. Bazan‚ RPh.‚ Ph.D. A buffer solution is a solution of: 1. A weak acid or a weak base and 2. The salt of the weak acid or weak base Both must be present! A buffer solution has the ability to resist changes in pH upon the addition of small amounts of either acid or base. Consider an equal molar mixture of CH3COOH and CH3COONa CH3COOH (aq) H+ (aq) + CH3COO- (aq) Adding more acid creates a shift left IF enough acetate ions are present 16.3 Which of the following

AMINO ACIDS BY MEANS OF TITRATION CURVE ABSTRACT The aim of the experiment was to identify an unknown amino acid through acid-base titrations which was prepared in water to form an acidic solution. Each group prepared unknown amino acid hydrochloride. The pre-prepared basic solution was slowly added to the amino acid solution and pH change was closely observed using the pH meter. During these titrations the amino acid converted from cation to zwitterion to anion; zwitterion is an amino acid with

The Equilibrium Constant of an Ester Hydrolysis Reaction Julia Stanley CHM 152 LL Dr. Asmita Kane Budruk Goal of the lab: The purpose of this laboratory is to determine the equilibrium constant‚ Kc‚ for the acid-catalyzed reaction between an unknown ester and water to produce an unknown alcohol and an unknown carboxylic acid. I was using Unknown Ester #3 with a density of 0.9342 and Molar Mass of 74.08 g/mol; alcohol with density 0.7914 and Molar Mass 32.04 g/mol. Chemical

Character of Weak Mind In William Shakespeare’s Hamlet‚ the Prince of Denmark appears to be a powerful man‚ driven by bloodlust to avenge his father’s death. At the beginning of The Royal Shakespeare Company’s 2009 version of the play‚ Hamlet conducts himself in a reserved manner. However‚ as the movie progresses‚ he begins to act more impulsively. For example‚ the prince seems very eager to question Queen Gertrude and King Claudius’s relationship and marriage. Hamlet’s unique determination to discover

Findings Analysis to determine the sex of our case study AFA was done using a physical exam karyotyping and PCR-based sex testing. The results from our physical exams on AFA showed well-developed female external genitalia‚ presence of breasts‚ no menstrual cycle‚ and no facial or chest hair. This led to a conclusion that AFA is a sterile female. The results from the Karyotype Analysis showed presence of 22 pairs of autosomes chromosomes and two X’s revealing that she is female. Lastly the PCR-based

Practical 4 Determination Of Fruit Firmness Introduction The development of sensors to measure fruit internal quality variable is one of the challenges of post – harvest technology. Several variables can currently be measured‚ including sugar content‚ firmness and internal disorders. Fruit quality is related to both internal variables (firmness‚ sugar content‚ acid content and internal effect) and external variables (shape‚ size‚ external defects and damage). Increasing consumer demand for high

From the graph I can clearly see that Distilled water has a much larger concentration of water then the cell sap in the potato tissue. I can make this conclusion because the results show a big increase in weight of the potato piece. Meaning that water has moved from outside the potato into the potato due to Osmosis‚ proving that the distilled water had a higher concentration of water‚ as water moves from a high concentration to a low concentration. I can also see that the glucose
