points are properties that can easily be determined and help in identifying a substance. These properties can be found in chemical literature ad reference tables‚ and can be used to distinguish a pure substance from many other pure substances. In this lab you will use the pure substance Paradichlorobenzene and determine its melting an freezing points by warming and cooling a sample of the substance‚ then plotting heating and cooling curves and analyzing them. Data that you collect will represent the

Taylor Hill Lab 6: Enzymes Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test for enzyme activity‚ look at enzyme specificity‚ and how temperature affects enzyme activity. Hypothesis: I believe that the room temperature activity will produce the most activity. Materials: 3% hydrogen peroxide‚ a household blender‚ potatoes (3 medium size potatoes‚ that are peeled and quartered)‚ tap water‚ 8 test tubes‚ 8 transfer pipets‚ sugar packets‚ salt‚ a small saucepan‚ a refrigerator with a freezer‚ stove

Lab‚ Week # 1 BALANCE LAB Introduction The purpose of this lab is to learn how to utilize two different balances to find the mass of different chemicals in the ChemLab program. A balance is an instrument used to determine the mass of a chemical. To accomplish this we use direct weighing and weighing by difference on both the centigram and electronic balances. Equipment 1 Centigram Balances 1 Electronic Balance 1 100ml Beakers 5 Copper Slugs 2 Unknown Weights (Label # 1‚ # 2)

Calorimetry To determine the specific heat of a metal and its approximate atomic mass. To determine the heat of neutralization for a strong acid-strong base reaction. To determine the quantity and direction of heat flow for the dissolution of salt. Post Lab Questions and Answers: 1. In parts A and B in‚ the calorimeter‚ although a good insulator‚ absorbs some heat when the system is above room temperature. Is the reported value for the specific heat of the metal too high or too low? Explain. Is the reported

February 25‚ 2013 Lab: Equilibrium of Forces Purpose/Objective: The objective of this lab was to test the first condition of equilibrium for a set of concurrent coplanar forces‚ prove Lami’s Theorem‚ and to determine an unknown mass using rules of equilibrium. Procedure: In the lab‚ we wanted to find at what angles three separate weights would create a net zero force on a force table so that the ring holding the weights was exactly centered in the middle

Abstract The purpose of this lab was to test if ethanol affects the reaction involving hydrogen peroxide and catalase. Tests were performed by putting chicken liver‚ ethanol solution (diluted ethanol solution for other trials) and hydrogen peroxide in a test tube with a side arm‚ and having a rubber tube lead the oxygen gas into a gas collection tube. Results from the tests showed a negative correlation‚ this means that the more diluted the solution of 95% ethanol was‚ the less oxygen gas collected
