Cola Explosion When the Mentos come into contact with the Diet Coke‚ a reaction causes the rapid formation of foam. it is concluded that the potassium benzoate‚ aspartame‚ and CO2 gas contained in the Diet Coke‚ in combination with the gelatin and gum arabic ingredients of the Mentos‚ all contribute to the formation of the foam. The structure of the Mentos is the most significant cause of the eruption due to nucleation.MythBusters reported that when fruit-flavored Mentos with a smooth waxy coating

that is poisonous to cells. Catalase speeds up the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into harmless water and oxygen gas. The purpose of this lab was to determine whether an inhibitor affects the rate of activity for the enzyme catalase. Since catalase speeds up the production of oxygen gas‚ the rate of enzyme activity can be measured as the height of the column of oxygen gas bubbles produced in a test tube. If copper sulfate inhibits the action of catalase‚ then it will slow down the reaction

ANALYSIS OF MOUTHWASH Background Information: Commercial mouthwashes are mixtures of water‚ alcohol‚ dyes‚ flavorings‚ and other compounds. In this experiment‚ you will use gas chromatography to determine the alcohol content of the mouthwash. Since the volumes of alcohol and water are not additive when mixed‚ a calibration curve must be used. It will provide the correction factor needed for alcohol-water mixtures. The calibration curve will be prepared by placing a known amount of alcohol

for a Closed System Question A gas is contained in a cylinder fitted with a movable piston as presented in Figure E6.4.1. Figure E6.4.1: A cylinder fitted to a moving piston If the cylinder is placed in boiling water with the piston held in a fixed position‚ 5 kcal of heat is absorbed by the gas‚ which equilibrates at 150oC and a higher pressure. The piston is then released‚ and the gas does 250 J of work in moving to its new equilibrium position. The final gas temperature is 150oC. Write the

Everything in this universe is made up of material which scientists have named “matter”. The air we breathe‚ the food we eat‚ stones‚ clouds‚ stars‚ plants and animals‚ even a small drop of water or a particle of sand– each thing is matter.

The three states of matter that are important in chemistry are solid‚ liquid‚ and gas. The major characteristics of solids are: particles are packed tightly together in an organized matter‚ usually dense‚ incompressible and do not flow. ● Slide 4: What are the major characteristics of liquids?

8.2.1 (iv) Fractional Distillation of Crude Oil By Blake Turner – Year 11 Fractional Distillation of Crude Oil Introduction Crude oil is the term for "unprocessed" oil‚ the stuff that comes out of the ground. It is also known as petroleum. Crude oil is a fossil fuel‚ meaning that it was made naturally from decaying plants and animals living in ancient seas millions of years ago -- most places you can find crude oil were once sea beds. Crude oils vary in colour‚ from clear to tar-black‚
