The properties of dibenzalacetone make it a great substance to be used when protecting the skin from the sun. In the experiment performed‚ dibenzalacetone was created from an aldol condensation of 2 portions of benzaldehyde and acetone in sodium hydroxide. The reaction that occurred in this experiment is known as a specific aldol condensation called Claisen-Schmidt. In the reaction‚ the carbonyl of benzaldehyde reacts quickly with the acetone anion to create a hydroxyketone that dehydrates in the

major habitat. They can be found over range of continents and have common characteristics with plants and animals. There are many types of Biomes on earth. BIomes are distinct from habitats‚ because any biome can comprise a variety of habitats. In our lab we had figure out the major components in a biome. For example‚ like the weather‚ what animals live in it‚ plant life‚ etc… And answer key questions to why something happens in a Biome. And how species and plant life depend on each other to survive

Wanni Lin Biology 110 March 2‚ 2015 DNA Lab BACKGROUND In this laboratory experiment‚ students were introduced to DNA electrophoresis. DNA electrophoresis is an instrument that many forensic scientists use to get a DNA fingerprint as an evidence for crimes. Not only can it be used for forensic science‚ people can use this for paternity test‚ as well as look for evolutionary relationships among organisms. Agarose is used to make the gel that the DNA fragments are going into. Since DNA particles are

successfully synthesis the reactant to the product‚ NaBH4 was used as the main reagent to reduce the carbonyl double bond. One believes the formation of isoborneol was successfully due to the product’s percent yield‚ IR‚ and melting point. During the lab‚ .077 grams of isoborneol was yielded from the camphor reduction. In result‚ .077 g compared to an theoretical yield of .102 g equaled an overall 75% percentage yield. Considering the product yield was only a quarter shy of a 100% yield‚ provides strong

Based on the prompt above‚ “You are going to test your body’s ability to maintain homeostasis. You will test this by monitoring a person in your group’s breathing rate‚ heart rate‚ and qualitative observations” we devised a hypothesis which states that if a person exercises‚ his/her heart rate‚ breathing rate and sweat (qualitative observation) will increase in order for our bodies to maintain homeostasis and control our bodily functions. Based on our experiment we found that in Trial 1 the heart
