When Chemicals React! Mr. Bell’s honors level chemistry class conducted an experiment during their lab demonstrations‚ this consisted of elements such as phosphorus and calcium chloride in their experiment. This along with another hydrogen based sunstance produced‚ what looked like a pinkish-looking substance inside of their flasks that were at their lab stations. Sophmore Kelly Caudel said‚ “ I actualley enjoy doing the experiments in this class‚ because it gives us a chance to get away from

humans have become hugely dependant on agriculture. As such‚ acid rain has the potential to damage crops extensively‚ and thus‚ damage society as well through shortage of food or even famine. In addition‚ in countries that depend on the production of agricultural goods like Canada‚ the effects of acid rain can be tremendous. In this lab‚ we have chosen to examine the effects of acidic and basic environments on radish plants (Raphanus sativus)‚ by implementing varying pH levels of buffer solution into

Chromatography of Photosynthetic Pigments Abstract In this experiment a process of chromatography was used to separate chlorophyll a‚ chlorophyll b‚ xanthophyll‚ and beta carotene. When these pigments were obtained they were used to measure the wavelengths by way of spectrophotometer of each and the total of all the pigments wavelength. Introduction Photosynthesis is a process by which plants use the sunlight to convert it from light energy into chemical energy. This equation shows us how

Name: Nikia Martinez Class: Biology 240L L3-1201 Assignment: Electrocardiography Lab Report Due: April 3rd 2012 Professor: Dr. B. Schoffstall Introduction In a normal human being the heart correctly functions by the blood first entering through the right atrium from the superior and inferior vena cava. This blood flow continues through the right atrioventricular valve into the right ventricle. The right ventricle contracts forcing the pulmonary valve to open leading blood flow through the pulmonary

Title: Esterification Objective: To synthesis acetylsalicylic acid by esterification. Introduction: A pleasant‚ often fruity‚ odor is characteristic of some of the simpler esters. Ethyl butyrate smells similar to pineapples‚ the odor of n-propyl acetate is reminiscent of pears and isopentyl acetate has a strong banana fragrance. Esters are derivatives of the carboxylic acids and contain the following functional group: The synthesis of an ester can be accomplished in one of several ways. An esterification

Food production A growing population brings with it a necessity to produce more food. However‚ the potential impact on the local and global environment must be considered. Part of the solution lies in careful management to reduce energy losses in food chains‚ as well as looking to new food sources. It is necessary to find a compromise between the priority of obtaining food and the priority of protecting ecosystems. The efficiency of food production can be improved by reducing the number of levels

High Performance Liquid Chromatography Analysis of Aspirin Problem: Was aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) successfully synthesized? Are there impurities or by-products present in the synthesized aspirin? How pure is the synthesized aspirin? Introduction: In the last experiment‚ aspirin was synthesized followed by characterization of the product using several different techniques. Melting point was a test that provided information about the identity and purity of the aspirin product. The iron(III)chloride

the percent yield by dividing the expected yield‚ the amount of product that should be produced based on your stoichiometric calculations‚ by the actual yield‚ the amount of product that is experimentally obtained from a chemical reaction. In this lab‚ I have determined the reaction for mixing two reactants together; I measured out 0.005 moles of each reactant‚ lead (II) nitrate and potassium chromate. I dissolved‚ mixed‚ and made them react to make products; I compared the mass of the two reactants
