Chem-102 Lab Dr. Sobhi Experiment #3: Spectrophotometric Determination of Tartrazine Purpose The objectives of this lab include- illustrating the use of the spectrophotometer in chemical analysis‚ and generating a standard‚ or calibration curve‚ then using that curve to determine the value of an unknown substance. The spectrophotometer is one of the most powerful tools used in chemistry to find the concentration of substances in solution. It compares the colors of a known and an unknown solution

THE SUBJECT MATTER OF EXPERIMENTS A well-designed experiment tells us that changes in the explanatory variable cause changes in the response variable. More exactly‚ it tells us that this happened for specific subjects in the specific environment of this specific experiment. No doubt we had grander things in mind. We want to proclaim that our new method of teaching math does better for high school students in general or that our new drug beats a placebo for some broad class of patients. Can we

The cerebellum of the brain‚ the “little brain”‚ is located at the rear of the brainstem. The tissue is folded into itself several times and each layer helps with the organization on the mind. It is clear that the cerebellum has an essential job because over time it has grown‚ by studying fossilized skulls it has been exposed that the cerebellum has increased to three times its size over the past million years. This small lump of tissue was first discussed by Ray S. Snider in an article written

Parachute Experiment Aim: To investigate the effect of surface area on a performance (more the amount of a parachute better the performance) of a parachute. Hypothesis- More the amount of holes in a parachute‚ faster the rate of the fall. Variables: Dependent variable- The time it takes for the parachute to reach the ground. Control variables:Mass > Adding or subtracting mass from the load. > Clay can be molded around the load to increase mass. > Parts of the load can be cut off to decrease the

(1) Answer to Question in lab manual. NO introduction/background etc. 1. What is the retention time for caffeine? Retention time for caffeine : 4.149+4.142+4.152+4.1454 = 4.15 2. What is the retention time for benzoic acid? Retention time for caffeine : 2.651+2.817+2.857+2.9274 = 2.81 3. How are the retention times for caffeine and benzoic acid related to their chemical structure and the nature of the chromatographic

which the concentration was obtained is questionable. Was the concentration known before the experiment began‚ or was it found based on a similarly known variable so the epsilon value could be known for Beer’s law. Additionally‚ if the epsilon was found from a stock hemoglobin sample what was it’s concentration? Were the dilutions parallel or serial? What dilutions or epsilon value was found?. The experiment can still be conducted effectively without such information‚ but it would have made things

Pipe Flow Experiment Purpose The purpose of the experiment is providing an opportunity to students of experience to familiarize with some key aspects of fluid flow in pipe‚ notably friction losses and verify theory. In this experiment‚ required equipment are a water tank‚ piezometric tubes‚ pump‚ a stop watch‚ empty bucket and a digital weight scale. By operating the pump to keep the water is full in the water

AIM: To carry out a lab experiment to decompose a carbonate using heat‚ also to carry out appropriate tests for the formation of products as a result of this decomposition. DISSCUSION: Carbonates are decomposed by heat into the corresponding oxides and carbon dioxide. The temperature of decomposition depends upon the activity of the metal; that is to say‚ the more active the metal‚ the more stable is the carbonate. Thus‚ the carbonates of sodium and potassium are stable at the highest temperature
