from complex mixtures. By isolating a protein‚ one will able to study its properties in detail and therefore be able to pinpoint which protein is responsible for a certain biological activity. Purified proteins also serve as valuable biochemical reagents. [2] Gluten – a protein composite most commonly found in wheat – possesses a unique property that allows it to be processed into bread and a variety of other foodstuffs. It is the ingredient responsible for adding texture and chewiness in baked

known starting mass of magnesium and the measured collection of hydrogen gas will be used to determine the reaction stoichiometry and the valency of magnesium. Introduction: In Chemistry‚ stoichiometry is the study of the quantitative relationship between amounts of reactants and products of a reaction (that is‚ how many moles of A react with a given number of moles B). Stoichiometry refers to the relative number of atoms of various elements found in chemical substances and is often useful in characterizing

barium chloride as a reagent to precipitate sulfate from the dissolved sample. The mass of sulfate in the sample can be calculated by simple stoichiometry from the mass of the weighing form of the sulfate precipitate. In order to ensure maximum filterability and minimum contamination‚ the sulfate is precipitated under conditions that maximize the particle size. These conditions include: (a) avoiding excessively high concentrations of precipitating reagent; (b) slow addition of reagent to a hot solution
