LAB REPORT Introduction: In a chemical change‚ the identities of substances change and new substances form. In an equation the substances on the left are the reactants. The substances on the right are the products. In this experiment the objectives are to observe evidence that a chemical change has taken place. Infer from observations that a new substance has been formed. Identify and record observations that show energy is involved in chemical change observe the color‚ solubility of some substances

Lab #4: The Immune System Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to perform and understand the procedures of conducting an ELISA test to determine whether a particular antibody is present in a patient’s blood sample through a virtual simulation. Hypothesis: If I successfully complete this lab‚ I will then understand how to perform an ELISA test‚ the purpose an ELISA test‚ and also how to interpret the results of this test. Materials and Procedures: Materials: Howard Huges medical

Unknown #11: Citrobacter freundii Tryptic Soy Agar Test (TSA): TSA is a basic medium that is most similar to nutrient agar. The agar contains carbon‚ nitrogen‚ sodium chloride‚ and agar. This allows for the growth of a large variety of microorganisms to grow and ferment in the medium. Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA): MSA is a selective and differential medium that favors the growth of salt loving organisms. It is commonly used to distinguish the different species of Staphylococci. If an organism ferments

Oxidation and Reduction Mnemonic: OILRIG Oxidation Is Loss‚ Reduction Is Gain Oxidation → the loss of electrons from an atom or an ion→ always happens at anode (positive electrode) → think anOde (O2 in the electrolysis of water xp) Redox reactions: Reactions involving the transfer of electrons e.g. burning‚ rusting‚ photosynthesis‚ respiration and the browning of apples. happens in three types of reactions: 1. addition of oxygen 2. removal of hydrogen 3. increase in valency (how easily an atom

OXIDATION AND REDUCTION Oxygen makes up only about 20% of the air‚ yet is the essential component for so many reactions. Without it fuels would not burn‚ iron would not rust and we would be unable to obtain energy from our food molecules through respiration. Indeed animal life on the planet did not evolve until a certain concentration of oxygen had built up in the atmosphere over 600 million years ago. The term oxidation has been in use for a long time to describe these and other reactions where

Lab Report: Halogen Reactions Purpose: This experiment will allow for exploration into some of the properties of Group 17 elements (halogens) and their compounds. More specifically‚ the solubility properties of these halogens will be used to predict their reactions. The relative electronegativities of the halogens will be determined. Halides‚such as Cl-‚ Br-‚ and I- will be used to make these determinations. Because this lab is qualitative rather than quantitative‚ there are no calculation

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?

Q1. Why should a four place analytical balance not be used in weighing a sample if the manual requests only one decimal place accuracy? Ans. We use the analytical balance where we need to weigh the small amount which needs a high degree of accuracy. Whereas‚ the manual requests only one decimal place accuracy which is not that much important and the time is consumed more to use the analytical balance with four decimal places. Q2. How is the pH meter calibrated? Ans. Firstly‚ The pH meter is calibrated

Caleb Campbell Larger Amounts of Sugar Result In Greater Fermentation Rates Introduction: This experiment was conducted to find out if using larger amounts of sugar in a water-yeast solution would cause higher rates of fermentation. Fermentation is an anaerobic (without oxygen) cellular process in which organic foods are converted into simpler compounds‚ and chemical energy (ATP) is produced (Biology-Online.org‚ 2008). Fermentation is a natural occurring process that humans have used and controlled

project is to study the rates of fermentation of the following fruit or vegetable juices. 1. i. Apple juice 2. ii. Carrot juice 1 INTRODUCTION Fermentation is the slow decomposition of complex organic compound into simpler compounds by the action of enzymes. Enzymes are complex organic compounds‚ generally proteins. Examples of fermentation are: souring of milk or curd‚ bread making‚ wine making and brewing. The word Fermentation has been derived from Latin (Ferver which
