Alyssa Caparelli Organic Chemistry 12A Professor Alston October 28‚ 2014 Isolation of Chlorophyll and Carotenoid Pigments from Spinach Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to isolate ß-carotene‚ chlorophyll-A‚ and chlorophyll-B from spinach using column chromatography. Spinach was dehydrated using ethanol‚ and the pigments were extracted with dichloromethane. The spinach extracts were dried using CaCl2. Then‚ the solid pigments were run through a column using a non-polar solvent‚ hexane

Organic Lab Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Observations We added the 30ml of warm water with 4.7 grams of borax powder in to the cup labeled ‘Borax Solution’ and also added a few dots of green food coloring. We then stirred it until all the solutions were completely mixed. When this happened the borax and water turned into a watery green solution. then we added 15ml of glue in the cup labeled ‘Ball mixture’ and added the mixture we made

will break‚ because the force needs to be shared or it takes over the egg. With that‚ I understood a basis of how the device should be. This lab is designed to be very innovative with making devices so that nature can be defied. An egg that is supposed to break on contact from seven meters up will be safe and won’t break. The egg drop showcases endless laws of physics‚ and it also encourages people to be creative. The results expected from the specified device are success‚ and everyone anticipated

Impurity Lab Report Aim: To find out the difference of the boiling point and melting point when adding impurity (salt) to water. Diagram: Method: 1.Set up the apparatus as shown in the diagram 2. Get a known amount of ice in the beaker (half full)‚ and a known amount of salt in another beaker 3. Measure the temperature (melting point) of the ice without adding any impurity (salt). 4. Measure the temperature (melting point) of the ice after adding the salt into the beaker. 5. Heat up

The different methods of measuring acids and bases in a solution By Starsky Intro to Biology September 26‚ 2011 Lab Partners: Kristen‚ Tania and Betty Introduction When using different methods to measure pH levels there are some tools that can be useful. Some more than others but by putting into action the different methods it may determine which tools will work best and give the best

one of the tests‚ so that data is lost. Specific errors include measuring the entire test tube from top to bottom instead of measuring the exact distance traveled by the filter paper‚ making the test results not plausible. The results of this lab proved several things. The results of the first test show that a higher enzyme concentration causes a faster rate of the substrate being broken down. This means that the effect of enzyme concentration on enzyme activity is a positive effect and speeds

Lab Report Procedure 6.1: Perform Benedict’s test for reducing sugars. Introduction: Benedict’s tests allows for the detection of the presence of reducing sugars. All monosaccharides are reducing sugars since all of them have active carbonyl group. Some disaccharides that are exposed to a carbonyl group are also reducing sugars but less reactive than monosaccharides. By mixing the sugar solution with Benedict’s solution and heating them‚ a redox reaction will occur. The copper (II) sulphate

Lab Report Density Name: Period: Problem How do you calculate Density? What units did you use for volume‚ mass‚ and density? When the cubes are placed in water which one will sink 1st? What is the ranking of the cubes lightest (1) to heaviest (10)? Is it true that the cube with the most mass will have the most density? Hypothesis I think the 1st cube was aluminum I think the 2nd cube was steel I think the 3rd cube was brass I think the 4th cube was copper I think the 5th
