Making and Testing for Hydrogen Gas Felicity Tyler Aim: To produce and test for hydrogen gas. Materials: * rubber stopper * dilute hydrochloric acid (HCI) * zinc pieces (Zn) * test-tube rack * matches * dilute sulphuric acid (H2SO4) * 2 cm strips of magnesium ribbon (Mg) * Iron pieces (Fe) * Test-tube Method 1. Test the different metals with the acids by separately combining

Hydrogen Selenide is toxic. It is made up of selenium which is also toxic‚ and hydrogen which is nontoxic. This substance is also colorless like hydrogen‚ but not like selenium which is a deep red color. There are reports of mine workers being poisoned by hydrogen selenide and selenium. Increasing industrial applications of selenium and the fact that workers may be exposed to Hydrogen Selenide have led authors to make a further investigation of the toxicity of this substance. The purpose of this

Lab 3: Hydrogen Spectrum Abstract When white light is viewed through a diffraction grating‚ we can see each component that makes up the light. However‚ when in an excited state‚ a gaseous element produces bright light of specific wavelengths rather than a continuous spectrum of colors. This phenomenon ultimately lead to the Neils Bohr model of the atom in 1913. Introduction In the middle of the 19th century‚ Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kichoff observed that gases emit spectral lines specific

Chemist from the University of Glasgow in Scotland have taken a step closer towards producing clean hydrogen fuel in a maintainable way. Hydrogen gas is able to be burned to generate electricity without producing lethal releases‚ unlike fossil fuels. It is produced from water releasing them as gas‚ through a process called electrolysis‚ which uses electricity to break the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen. This technique is 30 times faster than the current method‚ and can be powered by renewable

Michigan entrepreneur Justin Eric Sutton brings us into the era of clean hydrogen energy and solar energy‚ by producing a remarkable high speed MAGLEV railway which is being sold throughout the USA for deployment on Elevated Superhighway Rails‚ it speeds travelers between metro areas at up to 250+ MPH‚ in this remarkable vision of the not so distant future! Not only would it revolutionize energy AND transportation‚ it is both feasible and deployable TODAY. All that remains is funding and agreements

The North Korean state media released an official statement in December declaring a new weapon of mass destruction has been added to their arsenal: the Hydrogen bomb. In a statement released by a North Korean news agency on Tuesday‚ it was made clear that “the regime’s scientists are in high spirits to detonate H-bombs‚ capable of wiping out the whole territory of the US at once” (Vale). The testing of their alleged H-bomb was said to have occurred last Wednesday. Does North Korea have the right

Experiment 8: Hydrogen Phosphate Buffer Systems Purpose The purpose of the lab was to create a buffer solution and observe the capacity of the phosphate buffer system. Also‚ the experiment was meant to provide experience with the calculations and mathematics involved in creating the buffer solution. Finally‚ the lab was designed to provide an insight and appreciation for the necessity and complexity of buffers in our physiology and in the environment. Procedure No deviations were made from

Procedure: The first part of this lab involved the standardization of the base NaOH with potassium hydrogen phthalate‚ or KHP. First‚ about 400 mL of NaOH (10 M) were poured into the 600-mL beaker. This was used to fill the burette. The 50-mL burette was rinsed through twice with 5 mL of NaOH. Then‚ the burette was mounted on the ring stand using a burette clamp and filled to 0 mL. Some of the NaOH was drained to fill the tip of the burette. The initial volume of NaOH‚ rounded to two decimal places

Effects of Molasses Concentration on Yeast Fermentation The purpose of this lab was to determine how yeast cells are affected by the concentration of a food source‚ and for our purposes‚ the food sources were corn syrup and molasses. Our hypothesis was that the yeast cells would ferment the most when there was a higher concentration of molasses/corn syrup. In order to test this‚ we created 10 test tubes with decreasing concentrations of molasses/corn syrup using a serial dilution. Each test

Respiration of Sugars by Yeast 1. PROBLEM STATEMENT: What is the effect of the type of sugar on the amount of carbon dioxide released by Yeast during aerobic respiration? 2. HYPOTHESIS: If the type of sugar is changed‚ the amount of carbon dioxide created will then increase because sugar is needed to for respiration so occur. If Fructose is added to the Yeast it will then respire the most Co2 because fructose is the largest sugar‚ its like using a hundred dollar bill instead of single dollars
