Energy Lab On November 13th‚ we did a lab to learn about energy. The definition of Kinetic Energy is energy of movement. The definition of Gravitational Potential Energy is energy in an object due to its positioning. The question that we had to answer was whether of not we could calculate the Gravitational Potential Energy and Kinetic Energy of various objects in different locations. To do this lab we had to first weigh the given objects. For this time‚ we weighed : a marble‚ a bouncy ball‚

xxx1 xxxxxx Ms. xxxx Biology 20 November 2013 Osmosis Lab Problem: What’s the order of the concentration for each solution and how does it affect the movement of water? Hypothesis: Experimenter thinks the order of the solutions according to their concentration is D‚A‚E‚C‚B‚ from smallest. And the water will pass through semipermeable tubing bag from low to high concentration to thin the concentration inside the bag. Osmosis is a diffusion of water particles and is one of the passive transport

Krupa Desai Cell Biology April 3‚ 2013 Lab: Biosynthesis of Starch Introduction: In this lab we learned the concept and procedure of synthesizing starch. We also learned the effects of pH and temperature on the reaction rates of amylase.. In the process of the synthesis lab we learned phosphorylation using a potato‚ which was what we synthesized. The phosphorylation took place after the addition of primer. There are two different types of starches used are amylose and amylopectin. To test

Ashley Huston ILab‚ Week #2 CATIONS AND ANION LAB Introduction The purpose of this lab is to demonstrate a double-replacement reaction of ionic compounds. In this experiment‚ you will combine two ionic compounds. Both compounds are soluble in water. If a response happens between these two compounds‚ then a precipitate will form because one of the two resultant compounds is not soluble in water. This is a hint that a reaction took place. Cations are positively charged ions that are attracted

Laboratory safety is an integral part of any lab experience. If the participants are unkempt or precarious‚ they can easily cause a huge accident or even tragedy. When working in the lab‚ so many different hazards are faced. The rules of the laboratory are in place to ensure that one does not hurt themselves‚ let alone everyone else in the room or even the whole building. Each person needs to be responsible for themselves‚ while also watching for potential dangers others may not notice. The first

AP Lab #5 Plant Pigments/Photosynthesis I. Identifying the Effects of Different Variables of Light and Carbon Dioxide on the Rate of Photosynthesis and Observing the Separation of Pigments Through Chromatography II. Introduction Plants have a variety of pigments‚ all of which absorb a different color of light. The three main pigments are chlorophyll a‚ chlorophyll b and carotenoids. Chlorophyll a is the primary plant pigment that absorbs red and blue light‚ which ultimately appears green to the human eye

3.2 “Lab-on-a-Chip” A Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) device‚ also known as a micro-total-analytical system (microTAS) or microfluidics device‚ is a device that can integrate miniaturized laboratory functions (such as separation and analysis of components of a mixture) on a single microprocessor chip using extremely small fluid volumes on the order of nanoliters to picoliters. From a technology categorization perspective‚ LOCs can be viewed as a subset of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and combine

Abstract The purpose of this lab was to test if ethanol affects the reaction involving hydrogen peroxide and catalase. Tests were performed by putting chicken liver‚ ethanol solution (diluted ethanol solution for other trials) and hydrogen peroxide in a test tube with a side arm‚ and having a rubber tube lead the oxygen gas into a gas collection tube. Results from the tests showed a negative correlation‚ this means that the more diluted the solution of 95% ethanol was‚ the less oxygen gas collected
