Estimation of the Activation Energy for the Iodination of Acetone Through the Effect of Temperature on the Rate Constant Joel Costa‚ Alex Fuentes‚ Michael Chea‚ Rex Nwerem Dr. Morgan Ferguson July 9‚ 2013 ABSTRACT | It is often important to determine the rate at which a chemical reaction takes place‚ i.e.‚ how fast it yields the desired products. Temperature is one of the factors that influence the rate of reactions and it does so by providing energy to reactant particles so that a larger

experiment is to test the existence of carbohydrates in starch suspension and potato cell. If carbohydrate is present in starch suspension‚ the solution will turn into dark blue when iodine solution is added. If carbohydrate is present in potato cell‚ starch granules can be seen clearly under microscope when iodine solution is added. The second experiment is to test the existence of lipids in margarine and olive oil. If a lipid is present in margarine‚ the solution suspended with alcohol will turn

"sitting on his knee‚ in the hot enormous crowded church.” (66) Baldwin shows one of his good memories with his father. Baldwin remembers he was taken to the barbershop and he began to cry‚ his father "soothed his crying and applied the stinging iodine.” (66) Baldwin remembers as he was growing up him and his father had sweet and lovable moments with each other. In James Baldwin’s Notes of a Native Son‚ the author describes a complex troubled relationship with is father. Baldwin’s attitude towards

The purpose of the study is to decide whether the use of 0.5% tincture of chlorhexidine or 10% povidone-iodine solution‚ is the most beneficial for preventing CVC exit site colonization‚ significant catheter tip colonization and catheter-related bacteremia in ICU patients.

and develop. The thyroid gland is located in the lower part of the neck‚ below the Adam’s apple‚ wrapped around the trachea. It has the shape of a butterfly with two lobes attached to one another by a middle part called the isthmus. The thyroid uses iodine‚ a mineral found in some foods and in iodized salt‚ to make its hormones. The two most important thyroid hormones are thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The thyroid gland also makes the hormone calcitonin‚ which is involved in calcium metabolism

the reader about Amylase’s ability to withstand acidic or basic pH. To do this‚ two test tubes were both filled with 5mL of a 5% amylase solution. The first one was filled with an acid‚ while the other was filled with a base. After dropping liquid Iodine and Benedict’s solution into each one‚ the tube with a basic pH tested positive for glucose. The acidic solution tested (mostly) negative for glucose‚ although there were trace amounts at the bottom. Overall‚ my conclusion is that only acidic solutions

Part 1: INTRODUCTION TO HYPERTHYROIDISM Hyperthyroidism is a large topic so we have split it into four manageable sized portions. This page introduces hyperthyroidism. Subsequent pages are listed at the bottom which address more specific details of making the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism‚ the causes of hyperthyroidism‚ and different treatment options available for hyperthyroidism. In healthy people‚ the thyroid makes just the right amounts of two hormones‚ T4 and T3‚ which have important
