Lab 5 The Diffraction Grating Chinua McDonald Objective: To measure the wavelength of light with a diffraction grating. Theory: The two types of diffraction gratings are the transmission and reflection gratings. They are made by ruling on a piece of glass or metal a number of evenly spaced lines with a fine diamond point. Diffraction phenomena can be analyzed in terms of Huygens’ principle‚ according to which every point on the wave front of a wave should be considered as a source

64. Interpret the following results: A. The color of the medium remains purple or light blue-gray; there is also no change in the texture of the medium. * No change B. Change in the color of litmus from purple to pink or pink-red throughout the tube. Upon further incubation a white ring of litmus forms at the bottom of the tube at the pink-red color is now present only at the top of the tube. Still further incubation leads to the formation of a rennet curd at the bottom of the

Michael Pitner Chem 253- TA: Gia Hoang Lab 1: Effect of pH on a Food Preservative 9-1-2011 Purpose The purpose of this lab was to determine if a new substance forms when sodium benzoate is placed in a simulated stomach acid. Theory Benzoic acid can be found in a wide variety of plants. It is used as a natural preservative in many foods. Sodium benzoate‚ the salt of benzoic acid‚ has become a more popular choice as a food preservative because it is more soluble in water than benzoic acid

Lab #5 Chemical Reactions & Balancing Equations Objectives Observe and classify several chemical and physical changes. Give evidence for the occurrence of a chemical reaction. Write a balanced equation for a chemical reaction. Identify a reaction as a combination‚ decomposition‚ replacement‚ or combustion reaction. Background Physical properties can be observed without changing the chemical composition of the substance. Common physical properties that can be measured without changing the chemical

How do limiting factors affect the rate of photosynthesis? Rate is the measurement of an amount of product or time. In the case of the rate of photosynthesis‚ it is measuring the gain of mass or growth over time. If the plant is an aquatic one that grows in water the rate of photosynthesis can be measured by counting oxygen bubbles or the volume of gas produced in a measured time period. A limiting factor is something that is present in the environment that has a short supply and because of that

Jeanine Campa Biology 101 10/20/2010 Ecology-Interspecific Interactions Lab Intro: Ecology is the study of how organisms interact within their environment. Every species interacts with its surroundings‚ whether it’s within their populations‚ community‚ ecosystem‚ etc. In this lab‚ we will be comparing two different species and how they grow alone as well as together‚ in the same environment. More specifically‚ in this lab‚ we will be dealing with one of the most important ideas in ecology‚ the

Chemical Reactions I. Purpose – The purpose of this lab was to observe different type of chemical reactions to write and balance chemical equations. II. Hypothesis: If you mix two chemicals together‚ then they will change color and/or bubble/fix. III. Procedure - Workstation 1: 1. Light the Bunsen Burner 2. Add 5 – 8 mL of HCL to a test tube that’s in the test tube rack 3. Drop a 2 – cm piece of Mg ribbon into the test tube 4. Record Observations 5. Clean Workstation
