South Street Seaweed Report Prasenjit Saha Chem lab 106 2/6/13 Spring 2014 Prasenjit Saha‚ Abdullah Sharif I. Warmup Questions 1. Coffee beans are crushed into small pieces‚ water is added to it and the mixture is heated over a flame. What do you think would happen to the coffee bean as it interacts with the water? Explain. Essentially the warm water will run through the coffee beans and extract its properties. The flavor of the coffee beans would disperse

) Ascorbic acid‚ C6H8O6‚ is a reducing agent that reacts rapidly with iodine (I2) in acidic medium to produce iodide ion (I-) and dehydroascorbic acid‚ as shown in the following equation: [IMAGE] + I2(aq) -----------> + 2H+(aq) + 2I-(aq) Ascorbic acid (Vit. C) Dehydroascorbic acid However‚ since iodine is only slightly soluble in water‚ ascorgic acid should not be titrated directly by a standard iodine solution‚ since the end point of titration is not o obvious. Instead‚

used is iodine-thiosulfate titration. It is a very useful method‚ since the iodide ion‚ I-‚ is easily oxidized by almost any oxidizing agent. The analysis takes place in a series of steps as follows: 1. A diluted sample of the bleach will be allowed to react with potassium iodide in acidic solution. The iodide ion will be oxidized to iodine while the hypochlorite ion will be reduced to chloride (Equation 1). 2 H+(aq) + OCl-(aq) + 2 I-(aq) ! Cl-(aq) + I2(aq) + H2O(l) (1) Iodine is not very

of ascorbic acid by iodine. The solubility of iodine is increased by complexation with iodide to form triiodide I2 (aq) + I- ºI3- Triiodide then oxidizes vitamin C to dehydroascorbic acid C6H8O6+ I3-+ H2O → C6H6O6+ 3I-+ 2H+(2) Vitamin C dehydroascorbic acid The endpoint is indicated by the reaction of iodine with starch suspension‚ which produces a blue-black product. As long as vitamin C is present‚ the triiodide is quickly converted to iodide ion‚ and no blue-black iodine-starch product is observed

Reham Al Sultan Prof. Hirul‚ Term Paper 4/25/2014 Thyroid Disease Thyroid is a small gland found at the base of your neck‚ just below your Adam ’s apple. The thyroid produces two main hormones called T3 and T4. These hormones travel in your blood to all parts of your body. The thyroid hormones control the rate of many activities in your body. These include how fast you burn calories and how fast your heart beats. All of these activities together are known as your body ’s metabolism. A thyroid

Pathophysiology. Thyroid hormones assume a vital role in the normal functioning of the body. Insufficiency in secretion from their source to respond to body needs in the body risks infection of hypothyroidism. They are secreted by the thyroid glands which are located in a close-range to the trachea between the cricoid cartilage and suprasternal notch where they possess two joined lobes by an isthmus. In addition‚ the thyroid hormones are inconclusive of triodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) that
