Carbohydrate Lab Report Introduction Qualitative identification of a substance is of significant importance in chemistry. Physical constants such as melting points have traditionally been used by organic chemistry for identification of unknown compounds. As for inorganic substances‚ the precipitation of a solid‚ results of a flame test‚ or the formation of a colored substance could all be keys to identifying a sample. Chromatography and spectra are amongst the newer techniques

in ability of a muscle to generate force. It can be a result of strenuous exercise but unusual fatigue may be caused by interference with the different stages of muscle contraction. There are two main causes of muscle fatigue‚ nervous fatigue and metabolic fatigue. Nervous Fatigue Nervous fatigue is the decline in the ability of a nerve to sustain a signal resulting in innervation of the muscle. The muscle’s ability to generate force is most strongly limited by nerve’s ability to sustain a high-frequency

The Catalase Lab Stephen Human Anatomy & Physiology 9/30/12 Problem- How do different environments affect the reactivity of catalase? Hypothesis- If more catalase is added then more oxygen (kPa) will be produced in a faster rate because there is more catalase to react upon. If less catalase is added then less oxygen (kPa) will be produced in a slower rate because there is less catalase to react upon. Variable- Independent- Amount of Catalase (Filter Paper) Dependent- Amount of

Joshua Berkebile 8-26-10 1st period Density Lab The purpose of this lab was to find the mass‚ the length‚ the width and the height of 4 different cubes so we could calculate the volume and density of them. We also had to find the density of irregular shapes by dropping them into a graduated cylinder than subtracting the starting water volume by the ending water volume. Density is how much mass is in a certain volume of matter. Volume is the amount of room that an object

hope to fully understand the Stroop effect‚ yet several issues remain open. The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether the Stroop phenomenon is equally strong in both brain hemispheres. Participants collected from our research methods lab were asked to complete an online experiment measuring the time of interference it took them to depict the color of the ink of the color-words. Furthermore‚ each color was assigned a number. For example‚ the ink color red was represented by the number

changed or destroyed by the reaction (Campbell and Reece‚ 2008). Enzymes are able to speed up the rate of a chemical reaction by decreasing the activation energy during the reaction (Garcia-Viloca et al.‚ 2004). Activation energy is the lowest amount of energy needed to begin a chemical reaction (Campbell and Reece‚ 2008). Few biochemical reactions could take place quickly enough to satisfy the metabolic needs for living

The Effect of Concentration on Absorbance Background Information The purpose of the “Determining Solution ‘Concentration’ Using A Spectrophotometer” lab was to use a spectrophotometer to find the relationship of concentration and absorbance obeying the Beer-Lambert law‚ which states concentration and absorbance are directly related‚ to then further determine the concentration of three unknown solutions. With the assumption that the solutions obey the Beer-Lambert law it is predicted that as concentration

Stoichiometry Lab Stoichiometry is the end result of adding up chemical elements that were involved in chemical reactions (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/stoichiometry). The word stoichiometry was obtained from two greek words meaning element and measure. This explains the definition for the term. A chemist named Jeremias Benjamin Richter was the chemist responsible for first realizing what stoichiometry was (http://www.chemteam.info/Stoichiometry/What-is-Stoichiometry.html). In 1972
