Ammonia and Hydrochloric Acid Lab Chemistry 1 Abstract The straw should be cut shorter to 8 cm in order to make the solid ring appear in the center of the straw. We achieved our goal‚ cutting the straw caused the gases to not have to go as far‚ and meet in the middle. Background The particles in a gas are very loose and tend to move around a lot very quickly. The particles in a solid are very compact and vibrate but don’t really move very much. The particles in a liquid however are more

Folic Acid is a B vitamin‚ specifically B9. It is an essential nutrient required by the body to create healthy new cells. While we hear about it mostly in regards to pregnancy‚ it is important to understand that the need for folic acid goes even beyond this. Folic acid is essential for the body to create red blood cells which in turn prevents anemia. It is also plays an important role in the metabolism of homocysteine‚ an amino acid. The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for all men and women

method to determine the amount of viable yeast present in a sample though this is not the best method for a number of reasons. A major reason is that methylene blue rapidly becomes toxic to the yeast and as such preparations should be examined within 10 minutes of preparation. The older the cells become‚ the less likely that they are to take up the methylene blue dye from solution since as the yeast age‚ they deposit lipid and/or sugar in their cell membrane (in the form of free sterols[predominantly

Separation of Amino Acids by Paper Chromatography Chromatography is a common technique for separating chemical substances. The prefix “chroma‚” which suggests “color‚” comes from the fact that some of the earliest applications of chromatography were to separate components of the green pigment‚ chlorophyll. You may have already used this method to separate the colored components in ink. In this experiment you will use chromatography to separate and identify amino acids‚ the building blocks of proteins

Flowers and Acid Call them freaks‚ the underground‚ the counterculture‚ flower children‚ or just simply hippies‚ they are all loose labels for the youth culture of the 60’s that transformed life in the West as we knew it‚ introducing the spirit of freedom‚ of hope‚ of happiness‚ of change‚ and of revolution (Miles 9). The years that made up the 1960’s were some of the most exciting and turbulent years in American history. The post World War II baby boomers grew up. A president and

1. Two ships P and Q are moving along straight lines with constant velocities. Initially P is at a point O and the position vector of Q relative to O is (6i + 12j) km‚ where i and j are unit vectors directed due east and due north respectively. The ship P is moving with velocity 10j km h–1 and Q is moving with velocity (−8i + 6j) km h−1. At time t hours the position vectors of P and Q relative to O are p km and q km respectively. (a) (b) (c) Find p and q in terms of t. (3) Calculate the distance

When estimating the effect of changes in the money supply to changes in nominal GDP‚ it is common to assume that the velocity of money is constant. The velocity of money is a measure of average number of times per year that a dollar is exchanged. The quantity theory of money states that the money supply multiplied by the velocity of money is equal to the price level multiplied by output. ( ) Price level multiplied by output is the nominal output. Therefore‚ a percent change in the money

Determination of Chemical Formulae: The Reaction of Zinc and Iodine By Sarah Abstract: The main objective of this experiment was to use to the reaction between zinc and iodine to examine the validity of the Law of Conservation of Mass and the Law of Constant Composition. The Law of Constant Composition was tested by determining the mass of each of the reactants‚ zinc and iodine‚ and comparing their total to the mass of the zinc iodide product plus the excess zinc. The total mass of the reactants

Determination has helped many well known brands and people become known . One of the most important keys to success is determination. There are many details‚ and aspects from texts‚ but there were three reasons that were evidenced from the articles The business of beanbags‚ Climbing Kilimanjaro‚ and The Mighty Macs that stood out. The first reason is that being motivated can benefit you in many ways. Motivation is a reason to do something‚ or take action. By being motivated‚ Lilian Wairimu Njue
