Introduction The aims of the lab session was to familiarize with the principles‚ operation and application of a light spectrophotometer. This report discusses an experiment to study the relationship of absorbance and concentration‚ the interaction of electromagnetic radiant energy(ERE) and matter which is an important aspect of the Beer-Lambert ’s Law. This law states that the absorption of a compound is directly proportional to the concentration of that particular compound. This is because (a &

Crystallization: Lab Report Theory/Introduction The purpose of this lab is to understand the concept of purification through crystallization. Crystallization is the process of purifying a substance‚ with the most adequate solvent. The process of crystallization came to be based on the principle of solubility. First‚ we must choose a solvent. The solvent is crucial to crystallization because it’s what will allow impurities to dissolve. Therefore‚ when selecting a solvent it is important that it

Hoeung 1 Tiffany Hoeung Ms. Braceras Honors Earth Science 4 March 2015 How Does Slope Affect the Movement of a Glacier Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to find how slope would affect glacier’s movement‚ and whether the movement was at a constant rate or changed. Hypothesis: If the slope is more steep‚ then the glacier’s movements will be faster than a less steep slope. Materials: Flubber Glue Water Borax Long tray Timer Procedure: 1

The objective of this macromolecules lab was to identify the presence any of the major macromolecules in various every day food items. The three macromolecules that this lab was carried out for were carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and proteins. There were five different experiments conducted and each of those experiments had one factor in common‚ they all had the same controls. The controls in this lab activity were already set for the lab activity. The controls were the distilled water and the baking soda

Put simply‚ photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy into chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. Photosynthesis comes from the Greek language and literally means “Light Composition” or “Putting Together Light.” Photosynthesis generally takes place in plants‚ however it also takes place in algae and many species of bacteria. In photosynthesis‚ light energy is converted to chemical energy and the chemical energy is then stored in the form of glucose‚ or sugar. Carbon

Photosynthesis is process by which green plants and certain other organisms use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose. In so doing‚ photosynthesis provides the basic energy source for virtually all organisms. An extremely important byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen‚ on which most organisms depend. Photosynthesis occurs in green plants‚ seaweeds‚ algae‚ and certain bacteria. These organisms are veritable sugar factories‚ producing millions of

University of Texas at Tyler Lab 3C: Purification of L-Lactate Dehydrogenase By Affinity Chromatography on Cibacron-Blue Sepharose David Alexander 10-15-2014 Dr. Black Chem 4135.001 Abstract: Like the previous experiments‚ the ultimate goal of this lab was to purify the enzyme sample. However‚ this is the last lab for purification and high level techniques of purification were employed to achieve this. Dialysis was used first‚ lowering the small-molecule concentration within the sample. Finally

IB Chemistry Experiment 4 Composition of a Post-1983 Penny Lab Report Background: Through the use of percent composition one can easily find out how much of a certain element is in a compound or an item such as a post-1983 penny. The experiment will be using HCl a strong acid to dissolve all the zinc inside the outer copper shell. The reaction follows as such; Zn+2HCLZnCl2+H2‚ but there will be no reaction with copper. The portion that will be measured is the mass of copper left after all of

In the BIO 14 Lab‚ the organismal system used for the last of three labs this semester is the Mimosa pudica plant. In these three weeks the stimulus-response of these plants will used to conduct experiments on the phenotypic plasticity of Mimosa pudica. Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of an organism to change its phenotypic traits in response to changes in the environment. And while very beneficial in some ways such as by allowing organisms to adapt to a changing environment quickly‚ it also
