Chem 21 Fall 2009 Experiment 9 — Recrystallization _____________________________________________________________________________ Pre-lab preparation. (1) Read the supplemental material from Zubrick‚ The Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual. (2) Draw the structure of acetanilide and report relevant physical data. Be sure to cite the source of the data. You should be able to figure out what’s relevant by reading the procedure. (3) Find and report the boiling points of the solvents you will be using

Report on the Reaction of Flames Towards Medals  Introduction The purpose of the flame lab was to identify a set of flame-test color standards for selected metal ions‚ relate the colors of a flame test to the behavior of excited electrons in a metal ion‚ observe spectral lines using diffraction grating‚ and to identify an unknown metal ion by using a flame test. My hypothesis for the lab was that most of the flames when sprayed with a solution will be a orange-red color. The unknown element

minutes of aerobic exercise. Each suggestive treatment is complete with a reasonable physiological rationale. I have come up with an experiment to test the 3 variables to figure out what treatments if any will work the best. My hypothesis is that all 3 of the suggestive treatments when done before flying on an airplane‚ will reduce the effects of jet lag. Experiment: A commercial airplane traveling from New York City to Los Angles non –stop will be selected at random. All passengers will be randomly

discussion I would like to contrast controlled laboratory experiments and naturalistic observations research methods. In controlled laboratory experiments‚ the researchers conduct their studies in a controlled setting. Conversely‚ studies involving naturalistic observation‚ examine participants in their natural environment. Below I present a contrast of the most essential features of each of these methods of research. Controlled laboratory experiments: • Objective: Seek to compare two or more conditions

My lab results were similar to my hypothesis. My hypothesis was that the densest object would be the rubber stopper. In the lab results the densest object was the penny and the rubber stopper was second. My hypothesis was switched. My hypothesis was correct when I stated that the macaroni was the third densest object. My hypothesis was also correct for the dice‚ but the bead and the dice share the same density. So they are both the fourth densest item. I was wrong with my hypothesis when I placed

source of infrared energy‚ heat is produced by the movement of atoms and molecules. This experiment was conducted to investigate how black‚ white‚ and silver cans would absorb heat. The electromagnetic spectrum is made up of gamma rays‚ X-rays‚ ultraviolet‚ visible‚ infrared‚ microwaves and radio waves. What separates these is the frequency and wavelength of each one. A high frequency‚ which is high energy‚ results in a short wavelengthand vice versa. This makes the frequency and wavelength inversely

In this experiment‚ we used acquired observational data to develop an activity series describing the relative reactivity of the metals being tested. The elements within a periodic table often show different trends in physical and chemical properties depending on the period or group they are apart of. In a periodic table‚ elements are arranged by increasing atomic number in horizontal rows called periods. The atomic numbers represent the number of protons in each element. The periodic table is also

Will no gum or having gum improve test scores? Data Analysis The question being answered in this experiment is‚ “Which gum will improve memorization the best?” The hypothesis for this experiment is‚ “If the gum flavor is altered‚ then one flavor will improve memorization more than another flavor.” The independent variable is the flavor of the gum. The dependent variable is the scores after taking the test with the different flavors. The control group was the test scores without any gum.Experimental

Aim: The aim of this experiment is to convert copper metal through a series of intermediate copper compounds back into copper metal. By weighing the copper at the beginning and at the end of the experiment the percentage yield can be determined. Method: The experiment was carried out as outlined in the practical manual. Results: Table: showing masses: Mass copper wire 0.2510 Mass crucible 28.9257 Mass watch glass 19.6213 Mass watch glass + copper 19.7890 Mass copper

The timeless classic “Dr Heidegger’s Experiment“‚ written by Nathaniel Hawthorne‚ explores the idea of science‚ or even science fiction‚ in a number of different ways. He uses themes such as the supernatural‚ and the transformation of old to young‚ to further investigate the topic of science. Hawthorne also uses the characterisation of Dr Heidegger to also make evident the idea being explored throughout short story. Hawthorne also uses a number of language forms and features‚ such as imagery‚ diction
