In order to determine the acidity of certain substances‚ we used moist and dry pH paper (litmus tests)‚ and observed the results. First we used dry pH paper to test the acidity of household ammonia‚ and it turned yellow. According to the legend‚ this indicates a weak acid. This is‚ however‚ not accurate as the vapor of the household ammonia wasn’t able to react as strongly with the pH paper since it was dry. Then‚ we used moist DI water pH paper with the same substance‚ household ammonia‚ and it

Lab 2 Tensile Test Abstract The aim behind this experiment was to put Mild steel‚ copper and aluminium through a tensile test‚ with Mild steel being tabulated and graphed to show its properties and how they could be used in the real world. Introduction/Theory Tensile testing is one of the most simple and widely used materiel tests available. It is used to characterize the mechanical properties of the material and has direct implications on the design and construction of the end product. This test

Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to use staining techniques and biochemical testing to identify an unknown bacteria using Bergey’s manual. Bergey’s manual of Systematic Bacteriology is a dichotomous key primarily used to identify a bacterial species. Biochemical tests are used to differentiate different species of bacteria. These tests are effective in determining the characteristics of the microbe being tested. Such characteristics include citrate utilization‚ gelatin hydrolysis‚ nitrate

Food Test 1: Test for Glucose – with Benedicts solution Benedicts solution is used to test for simple sugars‚ such as glucose. It is a clear blue solution of sodium and copper salts. In presence of simple sugars‚ the blue solution changes color to either green‚ yellow or brick-red‚ depending on the amount of sugar. Method 1) Mix smalls amount of each food sample (i.e.‚ Egg lumen‚ cylindrical piece of potato tuber‚ bread crump and crisps) in different test tubes with distilled water to make a

The Urea test was used to test both Unknown Gram-positive and Unknown Gram-negative bacteria. One colony of bacteria was used from the Unknown 13A plate and Unknown 13B plate in order to inoculate the Urea Slant. After the slant was inoculated‚ the cultures were placed in an incubator at 35ºC for Gram-positive bacteria‚ and 37ºC for Gram-negative bacteria for a total of 48 hours. If the Urea test were positive‚ the color of the slant would have changed to a hot pink color‚ which indicated the bacteria’s

element tensile test is conducted for element size of 5mm at strain rates mentioned in Fig. 7 7. The true stress versus plastic strain results of the simulation in comparison to the load curve is shown in Fig. 7 9. As the damage is coupled to the stress tensor by Eq. 4 1‚ there is a continuous reduction of stress. The plastic strain at failure for different strain rates is shown in Fig. 7 11 which is in accordance to the scaling factor given for different strain rates. One element tensile test is also conducted

Verifying Differences Between Athletes’ Heart Rates And Non-Athletes’ Heart Rates By Using Step Test Introduction: Different people have different heart rates because of many reasons such as health condition‚ smoking‚ working out‚ among others. This step test is used to compare and figure out the differences between athletes’ heart rates and non-athletes’ heart rates before and after the test. Kuno Hottenrott stated that the normal average heart rate of people ranges from 40 to 100 beats per

What is urodynamic testing? Urodynamic tests are done to determine how well your lower urinary tract is working. The lower urinary tract includes your bladder and the tube that empties your bladder (urethra). When your kidneys filter your blood‚ urine is stored in your bladder until you feel the urge to pass urine (urinate). Urination requires coordination between the nerves and muscles of your bladder and urethra. When your lower urinary tract is working well‚ you should be able to: Start urinating
