Introduction The purpose of this lab was to test different antacids‚ to find out which would be the most effective to take. Stomach acid problems come from a overproduction‚ and build up of gastric acid (HCl). In order to determine which antacid is the more effective‚ four different brands of antacids were chosen‚ and tested. The purpose of an antacid is to balance out the pH inside a person’s stomach. PH is the measurement of molar concentration of hydrogen ions that are present in the solution

In this lab‚ we were able to determine measuring the pH of liquids work. We were able to compare the liquids based on their pH level and determine which liquid was acidic or basic. Our results showed that if something came out to be seven or less‚ according to the pH scale‚ it means that an acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. Because of this‚ when an acid is dissolved in water‚ the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions is shifted. Now there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide

bacterium was a gram negative or a gram positive. After performing the gram stain‚ I concluded that by the appearance of purple spherical clusters resembling grapes that is was a gram positive cocci. A Catalase test was then performed using hydrogen peroxide. A positive catalase test was observed when bubbles started to form on the culture distinguishing Staphylococcus spp. form on the culture distinguishing Staphylococcus spp. from Streptococcus spp. Finally‚ a Mannitol Salt Agar was streaked

reactions in cells. The specific function of the enzyme in this experiment was to see if it affected the activity if it was exposed to different temperatures. A substrate is a material or substance which the enzyme acts. The substrate in our lab was hydrogen peroxide. Procedure For our experiment we used‚ three test tubes‚ nine milliliters of potato

sulphate solution Safety: 1. Be careful with copper (II) sulphate solution it is poisonous and corrosive. handle with care 2. Do NOT BREATH in any gases produced 3. If you touch any of the metals‚ you MUST wash your hands at the end of the lab Procedure: 1. Collect the materials and put on safety equipment. 2. Observe the metals and record your observations. 3. Into separate test tubes‚ place each metal inside. Label accordingly to metal. 4. Measure 5mL of the copper (II)

The purpose of this lab was to see which solutions are soluble and which are not. We were able to see this by mixing certain solutions together and observing changes that occurred. The procedure for this experiment included a few different steps. The first steps were to add the nitrate solutions into the lettered parts of the 96-well plate. Once you were done with that‚ you were supposed to add the sodium solutions to the numbered parts of the 96-well plate‚ so that the solutions were added together

Lab Report: Purpose: The Objective of this lab was to learn how to measure the pH (or acidity) of commonly known fluids‚ using the correct tools and procedures. To then use that data to document the changes noticed when mixing those same fluids and changing their respective pH levels. Materials: In order to conduct this experiment several pieces of equipment and other materials were needed. The first item was a graduated cylinder‚ which was used in order to measure out the precise

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to discover which type of bacterial inhibitor‚ antiseptics (Hydrogen Peroxide)‚ disinfectants (Ammonia)‚ or antibiotics (Erythromycin) are the most effective; in other words‚ which type of bacterial inhibitor will create the largest zone of inhibition in millimeters squared. In doing this experiment‚ the researchers will reveal which bacterial inhibitors abolish the most bacteria. In the future‚ people will choose the most effective bacterial inhibitor;
