Trigeminal nerve The trigeminal nerve is the fifth of twelve pairs of cranial nerves enervating the face and head‚ and is denoted by the Roman Numeral V. It has three divisions which enervate the forehead and eye (ophthalmic V1)‚ cheek (maxillary V2) and lower face and jaw (mandibular V3). The trigeminal nerves function in sensing facial touch‚ pain and temperature‚ as well as controlling muscles used for chewing. The trigeminal nerve functions should be distinguished from the facial nerve (cranial

Lab #3: Stoichiometry of a Precipitation Reaction October 14‚ 2014 Abstract: The purpose of the lab‚ Stoichiometry of a Precipitation Reaction‚ is to be able to calculate the amount of a second reactant we need to react with the reactant one. You must calculate the amount of the second reactant using stoichiometry to figure out what amount is needed. After the amount is calculated‚ you then can add it to the first reactant and it will give you a full reaction. To figure out what you
