Four elements‚ hydrogen‚ carbon‚ oxygen and nitrogen‚ are the major components of most organic compounds. Consequently‚ our understanding of organic chemistry must have‚ as a foundation‚ an appreciation of the electronic structure and properties of these elements. The truncated periodic table shown above provides the orbital electronic structure for the first eighteen elements (hydrogen through argon). According to the Aufbau principle‚ the electrons of an atom occupy quantum levels or orbitals starting

Experiment title: Preparation of Biological Materials for Microscopic Examination Objectives: 1. To learn how to use a microscope. 2. To study the cell structure of starch grains‚ onion cells and cheek cells. 3. To differentiate the difference between starch grains‚ onion cells and cheek cells. Introduction: Microscope is an optical instrument use to magnify micro objects that hardly or impossible to be observed by naked eyes‚ so that the objects can be studied. Compound light microscope

Movement in and out of cells Diffusion: (mixing molecules) Molecules and ions in a liquid or a gas move continuously. The movement is quite random‚ and the particles change direction as they bump into one another. The particles collide more often when they are close together (when they are concentrated) and so they tend to diffuse‚ or spread out‚ until they are spaced evenly throughout the gas or liquid. The random movement of particles is due to their own kinetic energy. When the diffusion

Portfolio The Cell and Cell Theory [pic] The cell The word cell comes from the Latin word “cellula”‚ which means a small room. The cell is the smallest unit of a living organism‚ also known as “the building block of life”. Every living organism is consisted of a cell. There are bacteria (unicellular organisms)‚ and multicellular organisms. There are different types of cells‚ prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. All cells come from preexisting cells. “Every cell is self-maintaining;

fundamentals of science. Title An investigation of an onion cell using a light microscope. Aim: The aim of this investigation is to identify the cells within an onion skin using a light microscope. An onion cell is a plant cell which through the light microscope‚ it should outline the cell wall‚ cell membrane and the nucleus. Introduction: Plant cells have a cell wall and cell membrane which animal cells do not have. The cell wall provides support and is relatively rigid‚ which consists of

Patricia Williams ENG 226 DL3 Is Organic Food Better? There have been many different food trends over the years. We have been told about eating low fat diets‚ zero carb diets‚ and now organic. If you are like many others‚ there is a good chance that you have heard that organic foods are healthier to eat. They contain more vitamins‚ minerals‚ enzymes and taste than engineered produce do. Organic foods are also free from insecticides‚ pesticides‚ growth hormones‚ antibiotics‚ fertilizers and a
