The term distance determination corresponds with Forensic Gunshot Residue Distance Determination Testing. Distance determination is the process of determining the distance a firearm was shot from its intended target. The determination process requires the firearm to be test fired from various distances to compare gunshot residue (GSR) patterns made during the test and compared to the ones made on the target. Often times the request for distance determination occurs resulting in the death from a shooting

DETERMINATION OF FRUIT ACIDS BY TITRATION AND CALCULATION OF THE SUGAR/ACID RATIO It is the sugar/acid ratio which contributes towards giving many fruits their characteristic flavour and so is an indicator of commercial and organoleptic ripeness. At the beginning of the ripening process the sugar/acid ratio is low‚ because of low sugar content and high fruit acid content‚ this makes the fruit taste sour. During the ripening process the fruit acids are degraded‚ the sugar content increases and

Determination of Equilibrium Constants Introduction Bromothymol blue is an indicator for many acid-base titrations. When adding different solutions within the indicator it is to react and change colors‚ in this experiment the different colors were blue‚ green‚ and yellow. In the following experiment‚ obtaining the absorbance levels for each one makes it possible to calculate the equilibrium constant. Materials and Methods For this specific experiment there are a few materials that are crucial
