by Redox Titration with Iodine Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an antioxidant that is essential for human nutrition. Vitamin C deficiency can lead to a disease called scurvy‚ which is characterized by abnormalities in the bones and teeth. Many fruits and vegetables contain vitamin C‚ but cooking destroys the vitamin‚ so raw citrus fruits and their juices are the main source of ascorbic acid for most people. One way to determine the amount of vitamin C in food is to use a redox titration. The redox

will have a slower metabolism. Materials and Methods For this experiment‚ you will need: 1. Two glass tubes with a diameter of 4mm and 20cm in length 2. Three live Mealworms 3. Wire rod 4. Cotton 5. Potassium hydroxide 6. Motor Oil 7. Petroleum jelly First‚ you will need to measure and record the weight of three mealworms to the nearest tenth. Then use the wire rod to push the small piece of cotton into the first tube. After the cotton‚ put the mealworms

Lab Report Janice Chisholm SCI207: Dependence of Man on the Environment Instructor: Lee Ott April 28‚ 2013 1. What patterns do you observe on the information table 4? While observing the information in table 4‚ it appears that the number of fish changes from time to time and the oxygen increases and / or decreases when this occurs. 2. Develop a hypothesis relating to the amount of dissolved oxygen measured in the water sample and the number of fish observed in the body of water?

The objective of this lab was to. First‚ we measured out 2.00g of granular zinc and 2.03g of iodine crystals and added them together into a boiling tube‚ which we labeled "R". After‚ we added a boiling chip into a large test tube labeled "P" and we also labeled an empty regular sized test tube with a "C". When we added 5mL of acetic acid to tube R‚ the solution turned red and was hot. After we add 30 drops of the red solution into tube C and continued to swirl tube R‚ the solution became

EXPERIMENT 1 DETERMINATION OF ASCORBIC ACID CONTENT IN VITAMIN C TABLETS INTRODUCTION To calculate the mass of the ascorbic acid and hence the mass percentage of ascorbic acid in the vitamin C tablet. PROCEDURES (Refer to Lab Manual) 1. Accurately weight vitamin C (effervescent type) in a 50 ml beaker. Add about 30 ml of deionised water to dissolve the vitamin C tablet. Once the tablet has dissolved completely‚ transfer the solution into a 250 ml volumetric flask via a plastic filter

Friedel-Crafts liquid phase alkylation reaction of aromatic compounds is an industrially important which is known since 1877 and also commonly practiced in organic chemistry for the synthesis of various pharmaceutical compounds [1]. Catalytic benzylation of aromatics with benzyl chloride is one of the commercially significant C-C bond synthetic reaction processes to produce benzylated aromatics such as diphenylmethane and substituted diphenylmethanes. These are key intermediates in the synthesis

LAB Report #3 Introduction: In this lab we have focus on Isolation of bacteria from environment. Microorganisms are found throughout the environment: in the air and water; on the surface of any object such as clothes‚ walls‚ furniture; in soil and dust; and on and in our own bodies (skin and mucous membranes). In order to demonstrate the ubiquity and diversity of microbes in the environment‚ samples from immediate areas of the environment and/or from your body will be obtained and cultured

Interestingly‚ we expect a simple lecture about our future but‚ she taught us some scientific issues like typing blood and how to separate serum from clotted blood. Also we were amazed by the photos of lab equipment and activity.in addition she presented some other photos about analysing blood and urine. As we were trying to achieve some data about different parts of biomedical science‚ she screened lots of slides about blood bank‚
