PRACTICAL 7 TITLE : DETERMINATION OF ERYTHROSINE CONCENTRATION USING UV- VISIBLE SPECTROPHOTOMETER INTRODUCTION In chemistry‚ spectrophotometry is the quantitative measurement of the reflection or transmission properties of a material as a function of wavelength. It is more specific than the general term electromagnetic spectroscopy in that spectrophotometry deals with visible light‚ near-ultraviolet‚ and near-infrared‚ but does not cover time-resolved spectroscopic techniques.

Abstract: Water potential is the measure of free energy of water in a solution. The purpose of this lab was to find the water potential of a potato cell. The problem of this lab was‚ if there was a high molarity of solute‚ would it have a positive or negative water potential? The hypothesis of the experiment was‚ if there is a high molarity of solute then the water potential would be lower or negative. After obtaining potatoes‚ we cut them into pieces‚ weighed them‚ and then placed them in a solution

When transferring the acid from the mortar to the flask by washing it with water‚ the low solubility of the acid made it hard and some of it was still stuck in the mortar and was not transferred into the flask. When phenolphthalein was added

This lab report will be detailing the steps taken and the results discovered when using spectrophotometry to determine the percentage of copper in a copper-clad penny and the thicknes of the copper layer on the copper-clad penny. After 1982‚ copper coating has been used in the creation of the penny because the cost of pure copper has increase to the point that the amount needed t omake a penny cost far more than the actual value of the penny. This lab allowed us to see just how much copper coating

Lab Title: "The Effect of Salt on the Boiling Point of Water" Lab Question: How does adding salt to water affects it’s boiling point? Prediction : In this paper‚ a newly proposed model based on solvation between pure solvent and salt for prediction of salt effect on vapor–liquid equilibria is presented by using only the vapor pressure depression data of pure solvent+salt systems that compose the mixed solvent with salt system Materials : 200 mL of distilled water‚ 2 beakers

Water Wheel Work‚ Power‚ and Efficiency Pre-Lab Preparation: Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to create an efficient water wheel that would produce a productive time in lifting the cup of nuts and bolts that was attached to the pipe used in rotating out water wheel. The more efficient our wheel was the better the time we would have in lifting our cup. We were then able to observe the work that was needed to turn the axel‚ the time that is taken to bring the cup of washers to the axel‚ and

EXPERIMENT : Iron in Breakfast Cereal by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy OBJECTIVES : 1) To determine the actual iron content of different brands of cereals 2) To compare the experimental results with the values listed on the manufacturer’s labels. INTRODUCTION : Iron is one of the important minerals that is required for our bodies to function properly. Most of the iron in our body is found in the blood such as haemoglobin‚ approximately 60 -70% of the human body’s iron is found
