LAB 02: Measuring and Dispensing Liquids Introduction Pipetting is one of the most important and basic skills when it comes to experimental science. Good pipetting skills allow an individual to put trust in his or her results‚ prevent waste of materials‚ and assure reproducibility of results. In order to correctly pipette liquids‚ the volume range must be first determined. p1000 micropipettes have a volume range of 200 - 1000 uL‚ p200 micropipettes have a volume range of 20 - 200 uL‚ and p20 micropipettes

the rate of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.” Chemical equilibrium is the state of constant composition attained when opposing reaction rates become equal. There is an essential relationship between reaction rates and chemical equilibrium‚ one that we can describe quantitatively. At first thought‚ the connection may seem obscure - do we not need to be far from equilibrium to properly measure reaction rates? The dynamic nature of chemical equilibrium means that both forward and reverse reactions

consistency and above a liquid consistency. Therefore‚ the soil has two important properties to be analyzed‚ the Liquid Limit (LL) and the Plastic Limit (PL). The Liquid Limit is the moisture content that makes the soil has a liquid behavior. The Plastic Limit is the moisture content below which the soil becomes from the plastic state to the semi-solid state‚ which means it loses the ability to be shaped and starts to become brittle. 1.2) Purpose of Experiment To determine the Liquid Limit‚ Plastic Limit

Physical and Chemical Changes Say you are presented with two beakers‚ beaker A and beaker B‚ each containing a white‚ powdery compound. * a. From your initial observations‚ you suspect that the two beakers contain the same compound. Describe‚ in general terms‚ some experiments in a laboratory that you could do to help prove or disprove that the beakers contain the same compound. You may try some of the followings: * Dissolving in water * Dissolving in different chemical solution

Introduction: A chemical reaction is formed of reactants and products. Reactants react with each other to give one or more product. Sometimes we can visualize observations that are characteristic of the reaction. Like for example a release of a gas (bubbles are formed) or a change of color or also the formation of a precipitate. Materiel needed: Test tubes Rack of test tubes Plastic droppers Beakers Procedure: We prepare 7 beakers of 7 different solutions (that we mark from 1→ 7)

TECHNOLOGIES BEHIND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) Brief Overview- A thin‚ flat electronic visual display that uses the light modulating properties of liquid crystals is known as a liquid crystal display. Direct light is not emitted by LCDs. Displaced cathode ray tube (CRT) displays of LCDs are used in most applications. Two sheets of polarizing material‚ are used in LCD displays‚ with a liquid crystal solution between them. The crystals align as a result of an electric current‚ so that light

Observations of Chemical Changes Objectives: (1 of 20 points) The objectives of this experiment are: 1. To observe some properties of chemical reactions 2. To associate chemical properties with household products Background Information: (2 of 20 points) Chemical changes are often accompanied by physical changes. Three that you should not see in this lab are changes in temperature‚ presence of a flame‚ and evolution of light‚ as when as firefly glows. Three physical changes that indicate a chemical change

Gonzales Mrs. Krametbauer English III 10 November 2014 Why Chemical Engineering? Individuals take engineering as something distance to their lives due to rigorous courses to get through. As some would say that it is not worth it‚ other clever individuals have figured this out. To be a chemical engineer‚ an individual explores and takes on other sciences to create important products to better peoples lives. As Mark and Sherri Devaney stated‚ “…Chemical Engineers are charged primarily with finding ways to
