Organic Chemistry I Simple and Fractional Distillation The Simple and Fractional distillation experiment was divided into two parts. We split up the procedure in this experiment. My group did the simple distillation and we received the Fractional distillation from another group in class. In this experiment‚ we examined the effectiveness of fractional and simple distillation to determine which is more successful at extracting a pure sample. This experiment was very successful. We are able to

Mrs. Feeney Biology 9 October 16‚ 2012 Identifying Organic Compounds Objective: To use indicators to test for the presence of organic compounds in certain substances. Theory: Major types of organic compounds in some common foods are Lipids‚ Carbohydrates‚ and Proteins. An indicator is a chemical compound that changes color and structure when exposed to certain conditions and is therefore useful for chemical tests. The purpose of using distilled water as one of the substances in the test

making the bacteria take on various phenotypic characteristics. Background Information: Genetic transformation is one of the most important processes in biotechnology. Essentially‚ genetic transformation involves the process where a cell (in this lab‚ a bacterial cell) takes up foreign DNA from its surroundings and incorporates it into its own DNA. This gene transfer is accomplished with the aid of a plasmid‚ a

Once the aspirin is prepared‚ it is isolated from the reaction solution and then it is purified. The aspirin is insoluble in cold water‚ and it is isolated by filtering the chilled reaction solution. Purification is essential to remove any unreacted salicylic acid and acetic anhydride as well as the acetic acid product and phosphoric acid. Acetic anhydride is caused to decompose by the addition of water once the formation of aspirin is complete. C4H6O3 (Acetic anhydride) + H2O (Water) ------------------------->

Abstract This experiment investigated the kinetics of the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase b which is important to metabolism. AMP is an allosteric activator of the enzyme because it converts glycogen phosphorylase b from its T state to the R state which is the active form. Caffeine is an inhibitor because it binds the nucleoside inhibitor site. When it binds this site‚ it stabilizes the inactive T state and blocks the catalytic site which needs to be open for enzyme activity to occur. The glycogen

meeting with you last month to discuss bringing the NHL expansion team to Kansas City. I have included the more detailed report you requested specifically regarding the current and future economy and other critical benefits to the area. The data and conclusions I have gathered come prominently from city records and other analysis reports. I have worked diligently to make the report as complete and objective as possible. I sincerely hope my analysis will help you in your decision making process and

In experiment 3.1.We set up and calibrate the spectronic 20 first since it takes time to be ready to use so‚ we turned the spectronic 20 to warm up for at least 15 minutes‚ set wavelength to 360 while no test tube in it. Also‚ we set the filter lever in order to match the wavelength range‚ and then set the transmittance to 0%‚ then we changed the mode to absorbance. After we labeled two test tubes which were #5 and #10‚ we inserted water first to set 0 absorbance‚ then we used #5 sample to read it

Reshmi Nair Title: Determination of Aspirin through back titration. Aim: To determine the concentration of Aspirin in a tablet using NaOH and Hcl. Research Question: What is the concentration of Aspirin in a normal tablet? Background: Aspirin is the general name for acetylsalicylic acid (ASA); it is also the trademark of the drug produced by Bayer in Germany. In eighty countries‚ aspirin is a registered trademark‚ but in other places the term aspirin refers to ASA by itself or as an ingredient

Agglutination Reaction Date performed: May 7‚ 2012 Group members present: Tan‚ Kevin Kyle Sy Ting‚ Shermae Tomimbang‚ Charisse Christine I. Introduction Agglutination is the clumping of particles. The word agglutination comes from the Latin agglutinare‚ meaning "to glue." This occurs in biology in three main examples: 1. The clumping of cells such as bacteria or red blood cells in the presence of an antibody. The antibody or other molecule binds multiple particles and joins
