ust imagine drinking a nice cold Minute Maid Pink Lemonade on a hot day‚ or a cold Red Powerade after a long hard practice. The cold refreshing drink rushes through your body and quenches your thirst. However‚ do you know what you are actually drinking‚ and how much of that drink is contaminated with dye? In this experiment‚ with the use of a spectrophotometer‚ the amount of concentrated dye in three drinks will be tested. First‚ the dye itself will be examined to see what the optimal wavelength

What is Magnesium chloride(MgCl2)? What is it used for and why? What does it look like? Magnesium chloride is the name of a chemical formula of MG CL two. This is a salt and they are a typical ion halide. halides are very soluble to water. magnesium chloride is used for deicing on highways in sidewalks and also parking lots it is a good source of de-icing. The color that it appears is white or colorless crystalline solid. What is magnesium or what is chloride? whare are they located? You can find

The goal for this experiment is to determine which out of the four balanced chemical equations best represent the thermal decomposition of sodium bicarbonate. The guiding question will be answered with the outcome of the sodium bicarbonates thermal decomposition and it being plugged in into the four balanced chemical equations. John Dalton atomic theory explains two fundamental laws of chemistry which are the law of conservation of mass and the law of definite proportions. The atomic theory states

At the beginning of the lab‚ a micro test tube with and without glass wool was weighed on an analytical balance. A watch glass‚ crucible‚ and lid were also weighed. The masses of all the materials needed for the lab were recorded in the data tables of the laboratory notebook. An unknown vial was obtained from the teacher and set to zero on the balance. About 0.6 grams of the unknown was measured into the micro test tube. The analytical balance was set to zero again and then the test tube with the

Molar Volume of a Gas Objective: The objective is to determine the volume‚ of one mole of hydrogen gas at STP using experimental data‚ known mathematical relationships‚ and a balanced chemical equation. Theory: The goal of this lab is to find the volume of one mole of hydrogen at STP. The experimenters will be working with hydrochloric acid and magnesium to find the objective. The acid in this lab will react to the magnesium and cause the water in the eudiometer to rise because of the reaction

between hydrochloric acid and sodium thiosulphate is affected by the concentration of the acid Simple Procedure Place a conical flask on a piece of paper with a cross on it. Add hydrochloric acid and sodium thiosulphate‚ and record the amount of time taken for the cross to disappear through the solution from the top of the flask. Record this time and repeat this for different concentrations of hydrochloric acid. Fair Test The variables in this test are: The concentration of hydrochloric acid

Main aim of experiment 5 is to use the biuret test to quantify the concentration of the Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) then constructing a standard curve graph and to use the spectrophotometer to perform an enzyme assay using different concentration of the BSA. Experiment 5 also verifies the Beer-Lambert Law‚ which is the linear relationship between absorbance and concentration of an absorbing species. Absorbance formula is shown in fig. 1.1. However‚ the Beer-Lambert Law is not obeyed at high concentration
