Thermodynamics- Enthalpy of Reaction and Hess’s Law December 5‚ 2011 Kylie Case‚ Emma McKee‚ Rebecca Smith Purpose: In this lab‚ the purpose was to verify Hess’s Law. Theory: Four main topics were covered during this experiment including enthalpy of reaction‚ heat of formation‚ Hess’s Law‚ and calorimetry. The first being enthalpy of reaction‚ ΔHrxn‚ which is the heat or enthalpy change for a chemical reaction. The energy change is equal to the amount of heat transferred at a constant

Introduction In this lab‚ we experimented the effects of pH on the function of the enzyme catalase. Catalase is an enzyme that brings about the reaction by which hydrogen peroxide is decomposed to water and oxygen (Encyclopedia Britannica). The chemical reaction is shown as 2H2O2 = 2H2O + O2 (Keilin and Hartree 397). The reaction involves primarily the adsorption of hydrogen peroxide at the catalase surface. The decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by catalase is regarded as involving

Labs and Diagnostics Colonoscopy This test allows direct visualization of the small bowel‚ rectum‚ and colon. It is recommended for patients who have experienced fecal occult blood or obvious blood in the stool. It is also recommended for patients who have experienced a change in bowel habits or are experiencing abdominal pain. In patients who have had colorectal cancer‚ polyposis‚ or inflammatory bowel disease it is used to observe for continued progression of their condition. During the procedure

Purpose The purpose of the “Beanium” lab was to determine the average atomic mass of three different isotopes of beanium. During the lab beans were counted to determine mass of the sum of the beans. Each type of bean were weighed separately and then averaged together to determine the average atomic mass of beanium. Materials and Hazards Analytical balance‚ coffee filter‚ pencil‚ paper‚ cup‚ American beans‚ Nigerian beans‚ Mexican beans‚ calculator‚ and paper. Raw Data Bean Total Mass w/ Cup Number

Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The objective of this experiment was to determine if changes in pH or temperature affected the activity of enzymes‚ specifically the enzyme sucrase. Enzymes are protein molecules that act as biological catalysts to increase the speed of the reaction or to lower the activation energy of that reaction. However‚ the activity of an enzyme can be affected by physical factors such as pH and temperature because these factors alter the structure of the enzyme (Freeman‚ 2011)

Dehydration of 2-Methylcyclohexanol February 10‚ 2013 Introduction This experiment was done to demonstrate the practical use of dehydration reactions and produce three different products. Dehydration reactions are reactions that involve the leaving of an “-OH” or “-H” group resulting in the formation of a double bond between two carbons. For the experiment we used 2-Methylcyclohexanol as a beginning reagent to dehydrate and possibly form 3-methylcyclohexene‚ 1-methylcyclohexene‚ or methylenecyclohexane

Introduction There are two groups of reflexes in the human body‚ with two ways to categorize each of them. Reflexes can either be inborn and connected through the nervous system‚ or they can be learned through practice. Another way to explain a reflexive category would be autonomic reflexes or somatic reflexes. Autonomic reflexes are those which are unaware to us and act on visceral organs of the body‚ whereas somatic reflexes involve skeletal muscle stimulation. Both types of reflexes are put into
