Unknown Lab Report #1 Unknown #1 April 25‚ 2012 Microbiology Spring 2012 MCB2010C Unknown #1 Introduction Identity of a microorganism has proven to be very significant. Doing so can help identify diseases and created treatment and cures for such diseases. As a result‚ various laboratory tests were performed to an unknown microbe (Unknown #1) found in the water of a nearby pond. By identify the microbe‚ the safety of the water will be known to those around it. Materials and Methods

EXTRACTION OF TRIMYRISTIN FROM NUTMEG: Paul I. PURPOSE: The purpose of this experiment was to illustrate the extraction of a solid natural product from its natural source by partition with the aid of an organic solvent. Extraction is the process by which a compound or mixtures of‚ is transferred by separation from one phase into another. In this case‚ the major triglyceride contains a single fatty acid identified as myristic acid. It is a substituent

Enzymes Ashley Njeru Mrs. Booth Tuesday‚ March 19th 2013 SBI 4U INTRODUCTION: The cellular activity of all organisms is controlled through the use of enzymes. An enzyme is a special type of biological molecule‚ usually a protein‚ which speeds up a chemical reaction; most are soluble in water or a dilute salt solution. There are about 4000 different enzymes in a typical living cell. If even one of these enzymes is missing or

Student: Keila Dukuze Date: Feb/10/2013 Lab# 3 Section: 110 Pre-Lab Report Determining the Density of Various Liquids and Solids The purpose of this experiment is to determine the weight (density) of certain liquids and solids in chemistry. These liquids include; Water‚ Hexane‚ Carbon Tetrachloride‚ and solids include; Copper‚ Zinc‚ Lead and‚ Aluminum. It’s important to know the weight of these products so you can properly conduct experiments and make clear observations. Different

packed closely together‚ but they are able to move around. Hence a fluid does not have a rigid shape‚ but adapts to the contours of the container that holds it. Like a liquid a gas has no fixed shape‚ but it has little resistance to compression because there is enough empty space for the molecules to move closer. Whereas a liquid placed in a container will form a puddle at the bottom of the container‚ a gas will expand to fill the container. Although the three categories seem very well defined

Liquid requires heat to change into a vapor or gas‚ thus it draws heat from the body in order to evaporate. If the rate of evaporation is occurring faster‚ it indicates it is drawing more heat from the body in order to change its state of matter. Greater

Banana Oil Lab Report Jesse Bradford 7/10/14 MTWR Section Introduction In the banana oil lab we began with isopentyl alcohol + acetic acid isopentyl acetate + Water. We needed for this experiment a hot plate‚ clamps‚ pipette‚ 5mL vial‚ caps‚ hoses and a thermometer. Upon starting‚ our group set up an open system experiment that allowed gases to be released to avoid pressure build up. We mixed together to molecules‚ 1.0mL of isopentyl alcohol‚ 1.5mL of acetic acid

Friedel-Crafts liquid phase alkylation reaction of aromatic compounds is an industrially important which is known since 1877 and also commonly practiced in organic chemistry for the synthesis of various pharmaceutical compounds [1]. Catalytic benzylation of aromatics with benzyl chloride is one of the commercially significant C-C bond synthetic reaction processes to produce benzylated aromatics such as diphenylmethane and substituted diphenylmethanes. These are key intermediates in the synthesis

Chemistry Pg. 1 Carbon Dating Carbon dating is the most reliable‚ commonly used‚ and useful dating method‚ for what it can date. It is used to date late Pleistocene and Holocene artifacts and geologic events up to 50‚000 years decayed. Carbon dating has been very beneficial to the scientific world‚ because it is used in so many different fields of science‚ including archaeology‚ geology‚ oceanography‚ hydrology‚ atmospheric science‚ and paleoclimatology. The radiocarbon dating method was developed
