which came from the potato juice. The function of an enzyme is to catalyze reactions in cells. The specific function of the enzyme in this experiment was to see if it affected the activity if it was exposed to different temperatures. A substrate is a material or substance which the enzyme acts. The substrate in our lab was hydrogen peroxide. Procedure For our experiment we used‚ three test tubes‚ nine milliliters of potato

CHEM 1105 Experiment 4: Determination of a Chemical Formula Introduction When atoms of one element combine with those of another‚ the combining ratio is typically an integer or a simple fraction. The simplest formula of a compound expresses that atom ratio. When two or more elements are present in a compound‚ the formula still indicates the atom ratio. To find the formula of a compound we need to find the mass of each of the elements in a weighed sample of that compound. For example‚

Determination of blood type Introduction: A blood type is a classification of blood based on the present or absence of inherited antigens substances on the surface of RBCs‚ these antigens are made by proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ and glycolipid‚ Now there are total of 8 blood type known for the international society of blood transfers ( ISBT)‚ Also 600 antigens are known for ISBT‚ Antigens are a type of protein (Y shaped) found in blood and it has a great role in the immune system to recognize any

Gravimetric Determination of Calcium ABSTRACT Determining the mass of a pure compound is a method of a gravimetric analysis. One of the gravimetric analyses is the precipitation; it is a method of separating the analyte from the unknown sample as a precipitate where it will be filtered and converted into a known composition that can be weighed to determine its mass (Skoog et al‚ 2013). Determining the mass of calcium by using gravimetric analysis was the objective of the experiment. A 25 mL

the President’s Council on Bioethics published the ‘Controversies in the Determination of Death’. Within the publication‚ the Council discusses the various criterions that need to be met in order for death to be declared. The criterions include those of a neurological level‚ which have been observed for over three decades. Although there have recently been objections to the neurological criterion in regards to death determination‚ the Council decided to maintain the criterion. In keeping the neurological

plateau‚ the temperature increment was set at 1°C per minute‚ and the melting point range of 147°C -149°C was recorded for the unknown sample. Titration of KHP with NaOH In this part the molarity of diluted NaOH was determined. After mixing 800 mL of water with 4.2 mL of 19.1 M NaOH‚ the diluted solution of NaOH was poured in a buret until the initial volume on the buret was 30.00 mL. 0.3005g of KHP was dissolved in 40.0 mL of 50% ethanol‚ and a drop of indicator was added to the Erlenmeyer flask containing

Report of Density Determinations Density is defined as the mass of substance per unit volume. Both pure substances and solutions are applicable. Today we are going to determine the Density of rock chunks and NaCl solution. In this experiment‚ we will determine the mass and volume of each object and then we will calculate the ratio—the density. In the first part of the experiment‚ we should measure the density of some irregularly shaped chunks of rock. The Weight of rocks is 18.769g

oxidation-reduction reactions. The first part of the experiment measures the standard electrode potentials of five various half cells against the Cu2+(1M)|Cu half cell. The last three half cells are prepared through electrolysis. The electrode potentials of all reactions are positive which means that they are spontaneous. There is a significant percent difference from the theoretical and the experimental standard electrode potentials. The sources of error are incorrect solution preparation and contaminated materials
