Refractive index measurement is actually a measurement of the speed of light in a medium. The speed of light (usually denoted by c) is 299 792 458 m/s in vacuum. In other media the speed of light is lower than this value‚ and the refractive index‚ R.I.‚ of a medium is a measure of how much the speed of light is reduced in the medium. The refractive index (n) of a medium is defined as the ratio of speed of light in vacuum (c) in to that in the medium (v) The speed of light in a medium depends on

The Importance of Chemistry in Life and Society Michael Birzon University of Phoenix February 28‚ 2013 The Difference Between Accuracy and Precision In the fields of mathematics‚ chemistry and all sciences accuracy can and or is defined‚ as a form of measurement‚ which calculates the degree of closeness of a quality to the quality’s truest value. While on the other hand‚ precision is a form of measurement that is exact‚ but is one in which can be duplicated and reproduce the same results

CHEM 301 LECTURE Unit 1 0 . COORDINATION CHEMISTRY Factors t hat affect solubility: Common ion: decrease in solubility Complex ion: increase in solubility How does complex ion formation increase solubility? Consider the complex ion formation between silver and ammonia: + Ag + 2NH3 A g(NH3 )2 + Kf = 1 .5 x 10 7 where Kf i s the formation constant (always >1 ‚ formation of the complex is highly favorable) Complex ion formation increases the solubility of sol ids in water

Biology Laboratory Report Practical 4 Food tests Introduction The main components of food are proteins‚ fats‚ carbohydrates‚ and‚ of course‚ water. Proteins‚ lipids and carbohydrates are carriers about energy necessary for vital activity. They are a plastic material for the formation of structures of the body‚ as well as used for the synthesis of hormones and substances that transmit signals in the nervous system. Our food also includes food (plant) fibers‚ has recently seemed unnecessary ballast
