Egg-speriment Write-up Part 1- Purpose: Why did we do the experiment? The purpose of this experiment was to understand how osmosis works and that the cell membrane is selectively permeable. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane. Many cells cannot function without adequate water‚ so cells depend on osmosis. When a cell is selectively permeable‚ it means some substances can pass through while others can’t. Many examples of these were shown throughout

Phuong Pham Prof. Johnson Lab 3 Gravimetric determination of Calcium as CaC2O4.H2O Feb‚ 27‚ 2014 I. Objective: The purpose of this lab is to determine how well gravimetric method measures the calcium level in a solution of known calcium concentration. II. Method: a) Overview: In this lab we will prepare 25 mL known concentration Calcium solutions. Then we will use Gravimetric method to determine the concentration of Calcium in each solution to figure out how well this method is. As we know

waterBoiling chipProcedureA Separation of a Sodium Chloride and Charcoal Mixture#1 Place 4 g of the salt/charcoal mixture in a 100 mL beaker and add about 15 mL of distilled water. Stir the mixture for about two minutes to allow the salt to dissolve. #2 Set up a filter funnel with filter paper on a filter funnel stand. Filter the mixture and collect the filtrate in a 100 mL beaker as shown in Figure 1.1. #3 Wash the solid with a further 5 mL of water but do not add this to the filtrate. Note and record

EXPERIMENT WRITE-UP INTRODUCTION: Information entering the memory can take on different forms‚ e.g. images‚ sounds or meaning. A way in which information is processed is through encoding‚ which is when information enters the sensory memory and is changed into a form that the memory can store it in. Information can be encoded as visual‚ acoustic or semantic. Evidence suggests that the primary encoding method for information to be stored in the short term memory (STM) is through acoustic coding

Gravimetric Analysis of a Chloride Salt CHEM 1001 Purpose: To illustrate typical techniques used in gravimetric analysis by determining quantitatively the chloride content in an unknown soluble salt. Theory: AgCl(s) is a very insoluble solid‚ yet still does have some solubility. Because of these traits‚ the following reaction is able to occur: Ag+(aq) + Cl−(aq) → AgCl(s) . This reaction is able to occur in both directions. When a soluble silver salt such as AgNO3 is added to a solution containing

OBJECTIVE The main objective of this experiment is to carry out qualitative analysis to identify metal cations in unknown solution 1. INTRODUCTION An unknown material can be determined by using simple chemical tests and separations which is called as inorganic qualitative analysis. The separation of cations depends on the difference in their propensity to form precipitates. Separation scheme is used to classify cation into five groups on the basis of their physical and chemical behavior opposed
