The purpose of the lab is to identify the compound based on a constant composition by performing a serious of tests. The hydrate is solid crystals compound and appears to be dry: since an ionic compound (salt) is crystallized from an aqueous solution (water)‚ by heating the hydrate the water is released from ionic structure; therefore it is possible to measure the weight of the ionic compound and calculate its ratio to the liquid in the hydrate. The goal of the lab is to establish the identity

Purpose: To identify an unknown bacterial specimen using basic laboratory technique and biochemical tests. The unknown bacteria will be one of the following: Enterococcus faecalis‚ Staphylococcus saprophyticus‚ Escherichia coli‚ Enterobacter aerogenes‚ Proteus vulgaris‚ Salmonella [I assume typhimurium]‚ or Shigella [either flexneri or sonnei‚ we used both in our lab during the semester]. Procedure {and observations}: Observe bacterial colony morphology. {Colonies are large‚ beige or

Antibiotic Lab Report By: Sierra Toll Hour: 6 Title: The effects of antibiotics on the growth of Escherichia Coli Problem: How do antibiotics affect the growth of E coli? Hypothesis: If Penicillin is applied to the bacteria‚ then the zone of inhibition will be larger. Background: The purpose of this lab was to see how effective a certain antibiotic is to kill E coli. The lab tested three antibiotics‚ Penicillin‚ Erythromycin‚ and Neomycin. The zone of inhibition‚ which is the amount of space

a solute such as salt is present in low concentrations to an area in which the solute is present in high concentrations. There are three types of osmosis: hypertonic is when there is high concentration and the cell has no water inside it (shrunk)‚ hypotonic is when there is low concentration and the cell has swelled up or in other words has a lot of water inside it‚ isotonic is when the water comes in and out of the cell and stays the same shape. All the carrots we put in the salt solution was from

The Effect of Metal Ions on Lichens Casey Stinnett ESC 1510 October 30‚ 2014 Introduction Lichens are a sybiotic association of fungus (mycobiont) and algae (Pediastrum boryanum . The fungus engulfs the algae‚ then supplies carbs‚ nitrogen‚ and vitamins while the algae photosynthesizes. This unusual relationship enables the lichen to grow in environments where neither fungus nor algae would normally be able to solely survive. They are found on every continent‚ ranging all the way from

Abstract: The Enzyme Lab results where when the liver was frozen‚ its reaction was fast‚ and when it was hot‚ it was slow‚ and the liver that was at room temperature reacted slowly to medium. Introduction: The Enzyme Lab is to conduct investigations to determine the most favorable conditions for the most efficient enzyme activity. Variables to be used testing include temperature‚ pH values and surface area. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions‚ which would otherwise
