10 Test Tube Mystery Introduction: The students were handed 10 test tubes with no identification. The students were supposed to design a method in determining what chemical was in each test tube. The list of chemicals is CuSO4‚ NH4Cl‚ NaOH‚ AgNO3‚ KI‚ H2SO4‚ NaBr‚ CaCl2‚ HCl‚ and Pb(NO3)2. The students are expected to determine the chemicals using physical properties‚ litmus paper‚ solubility‚ and the process of elimination. Physical properties‚ such as the color‚ can be determined by sight. Litmus

a smear was prepared by use a sterile transfer loop that been flamed to removes some bacteria from slant agar and placed on the slide; mixed with one drop of water and let air dried. After dried‚ heat fixation the slide by passed the slide over a flame quickly 2-3 times to stick bacteria to the slide. Next‚ the smear was sequence covered with crystal violet‚ iodine‚ 95% ethanol‚ and safranin; each reagent was rinsed with water after 1 minute. When decolorized with 95% ethanol‚ the smear was slowly

Enzymes are proteins that increase or decrease the rate of chemical reactions. They are generally globular proteins and are around 62 amino acids residues in size. What enzymes do is determined by their 2-dimensional shape. A lot of enzymes are bigger than the substrate they act on‚ but only a little part of the enzyme involved directly with the catalysis. Without enzymes the chemical reactions in the body‚ would be so slow‚ the body would shut down. And cell reactions would take too much energy

specially. This funnel is called as V-funnel. This test is a self-compactibility test to measure the capacity of concrete to pass into the spaces. This test determines the viscosity and passing capacity of SCC. Fresh SCC is filled to the funnel without any compaction or vibration and then the sliding cover under the funnel is opened and the filling time of all concrete in the funnel to the pail is recorded. Fig. 2 V-funnel test L-box test L-box test is used to assess the passing ability of SCC to

INTRODUCTION Aggregate is one of the basic constituents of concrete. Its quality is of considerable importance because about three-quarter of the volume of concrete is occupied by aggregates. One of the physical properties of aggregate that influence the property of concrete is the grading of aggregate. The grading of aggregate defines the proportions of particles of different size in the aggregate. The grading of fine (size < 5 mm) and coarse (size > 5 mm) aggregates are generally required
