Abstract: For the first part of this lab we refluxed different Carboxylic acids and alcohols in the presence of a acid catalyst in order to form Esters by Fischer Esterification. These Esters had different pleasant smells that we then evaluated. In the second part of the experiment‚ we broke the ester bonds of a triglyceride in order to form glycerol and carboxylate salts. This process is known as Saponification because it produces amphiphilic molecules that allow soap to remove dirt from the surface

SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT OF A REACTION UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES‚ DILIMAN QUEZON CITY‚ PHILIPPINES August 2‚ 2013 ABSTRACT The objective of this experiment is to determine the equilibrium constant‚ denoted Keq‚ for the formation of [Fe(SCN)]2+ complex which is a product of the reaction between the ions Fe3+ and SCN-. In performing this experiment‚ solutions containing FeCl3 and KSCN‚ diluted in HCl‚ were measured for their absorbance using a UV-Vis

Abstract: The Enzyme Lab results where when the liver was frozen‚ its reaction was fast‚ and when it was hot‚ it was slow‚ and the liver that was at room temperature reacted slowly to medium. Introduction: The Enzyme Lab is to conduct investigations to determine the most favorable conditions for the most efficient enzyme activity. Variables to be used testing include temperature‚ pH values and surface area. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions‚ which would otherwise

Fractional crystallization makes use of the differences of solubility to separate the components of a mixture. Goals: Applying fractional crystallization to separate a mixture of salicylic acid and copper sulfate pentahydrate into its components. Calculate the percent of salicylic acid and copper sulfate pentahy- drate in the mixture. Procedure: Block/McKelvy/with contributions from Georgia Perimeter Faculty (2012) - Laboratory Experiments for Chem 1211L & 1212L Cengage Learning (7th ed.) p. 23&24

Laboratory 9 Lab title: Conductivity of solutions and Household Items PURPOSE: To understand the compounds that dissociate (break into ions) when dissolved in water. Determine ionic compounds are electrolytes. To identify solutions as electrolytic and non-electrolytic‚ and to identify variations in conductivity among electrolytes. Substances that are capable of conducting an electric current in solution are known as electrolytes. Substances that do not conduct an electric current

Self-Determination “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10‚000 ways that won’t work.” ― Thomas A. Edison I believe that if you have self-determination then there is no such thing as failure‚ only improvements. This means that if I work hard enough and put my mind to it‚ I can do it. I may not reach my accomplishments right away but if I do want to be successful I will have to have failed many times before I reach what I to accomplish. Possibilities are endless with self-determination. I
