Organic Chemistry II Lab 9 Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose * Introduction Ethanol is one of the oldest alcohols and also the least toxic one. Industrially‚ ethanol is made most economically by hydration of ethylene. However‚ ethanol that is intended for human consumption must‚ by law‚ be prepared by fermentation. By either method‚ ethanol‚ of course‚ has the same formula‚ structure‚ and properties. The fermentation takes place with the assistance of enzymes from yeast

Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

I.Purpose The purpose of this lab is to show how potential energy and kinetic energy is shown and transferred using a model rollercoaster. This lab also demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Energy. II.Introduction Potential and Kinetic energy have a very big relationship. The Law of Conservation of Energy states that “Energy cannot be destroyed or created‚ but can be transformed or transferred.” This lab will help demonstrate this law and show the conversion between Kinetic and Potential

Determination of KHP – Acid - Base Titration For determining purity of unknown KHP‚ acid – base titration was used. Molarity of titrant in this case NaOH was standardized as 0.04958(±0.00011) M. Purity of unknown KHP was calculated as 35.88(±0.16) %. • Introduction Acid – base titration is typical method of determining unknown figures. Acid – base titration means that by using neutralization between acid and base. Abrupt changing of pH says whether procedure is done or not. pH indicators

molecules and water are very vital processes for many living organisms. There is active and passive transport; active transport includes functions of a cell membrane to selectively push specific types of molecules across the membrane and there is passive transport in which it does not have need of an active role for the membrane. Osmosis and dialysis are also occasionally called passive transports because they too do not require an active role for the membrane. Osmosis is movement of water across a semipermeable

Date: October 29‚ 2014 Title: Thermometric Titration Purpose: To determine the concentration of sulphuric acid by thermometric titration Background Information: A thermometric titration is a titration technique where the endpoints of the reaction are located from the enthalpy change between the reagents. In thermometric titration we make use of the fact that reactions in solution are accompanied by temperature changes and thus it is possible to follow the course of the reaction with a thermometer

Abstract By using acid-base titration‚ we determined the suitability of phenolphthalein and methyl red as acid base indicators. We found that the equivalence point of the titration of hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide was not within the ph range of phenolphthalein’s color range. The titration of acetic acid with sodium hydroxide resulted in an equivalence point out of the range of methyl red. And the titration of ammonia with hydrochloric acid had an equivalence point that was also out of

We put half a spoon of zinc fillings. We add 20 ml of 3M NaOH solutions in it. We placed the beaker on the hot plate‚ which we had turned on before. We put the penny into the beaker. After it started to boil‚ we removed the penny from the beaker‚ using tongs. DATA COLLECTION AND PROCESSING: Observations: The color
