This experiment has been carried out to observe whether the hamster prefers organic or conventional foods better. Hammy was put into the place where there were two identical pieces of food‚ one organic‚ one conventional and it gets to choose either of them to eat. The reason hamster is used instead of the human is because it is unbiased‚ it judges the food from the smells unlike human that we have more complex thinking and tends to be considering about other things. Also‚ the human body is not good

Organic Chemistry Laboratory Report. Experiment 1: Crystallization. Objectives: 1. To study the crystallization process. 2. To identify the best suitable solvent to use for the crystallization process. 3. Gain an experience in purifying an organic compound by the techniques of the crystallization. Introduction. Crystallization is a technique which chemists use to purify solid compounds. It is one of the fundamental procedures each chemist

ESTERIFICATION SYNTHESIS OF PEAR OIL One of the major uses of Esterification (C(=O)-C-R) is forming compounds with different odors which can be used to make different synthetic and natural flavorings. Using the chemical and physical properties of organic compounds‚ an ester was catalyzed from the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol‚ producing an odor similar to that of pear oil. The mechanism of this Fischer- Esterification process is outlined as follows:

EXPERIMENT 3 DETERMINATION OF ORGANIC MATTER BY WALKEY- BLACK WET OXIDATION METHOD OBJECTIVE: This method determines the percentage of organic carbon and organic matter in the soil. INTRODUCTION The soil sample is suspended in standard potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) solution to which concentrated sulphuric acid is then added. The heat generated on adding the sulphuric acid and the presence of chromic acid creates strong oxidizing conditions. The excess chromic

growth in organic products. Ceres increased their revenues by over 75% in just five years‚ while growing profits by over 25% (based on Exhibits 2‚ 3 & 4). Ceres’s basic strategy started with its founder‚ Jonathan Wydown‚ to promote sustainable organic gardens and landscapes to environmentally conscious consumers. Mr. Wydown has been a proponent of soil preservation‚ biodiversity‚ and natural fertilizers and pest control. Mr. Wydown was confident that the same principles behind organic farming would

Amanda Jornd Experiment 7- Synthesis and Reactivity of tert-Butyl Chloride Via an SN1 Reaction Introduction/Background: Alkyl halides are compounds in which a halogen atom replaces a hydrogen atom of an alkane. Alkyl halides are classified as primary‚ secondary or tertiary depending on the number of alkyl substituents directly attached to the carbon attached to the halogen atom. The purpose of this lab was to properly prepare t-butyl chloride from t-butyl-alcohol in a concentrated hydrochloric

Comparison between Organic and Inorganic Compounds Organic Compounds | Inorganic Compounds | *Organic Compounds are composed of few elements only.C‚ H‚O‚N‚S‚P and halogens are the most common. | * Inorganic Compounds are composed of all the known elements. | *They are generally found in living matter‚ i.e.‚ animals and plants. | *They are generally obtained from non-living matter‚ i.e.‚ minerals. | *They are usually gases‚ liquids or solids having low melting points. | *They are usually solids

Lab #4 The Synthesis of Organic Polymers CHM2123‚ Section C October 21‚ 2014 Introduction: Organic polymers are macromolecules that are composed of smaller molecules called monomers. There are two main groups of polymers: natural polymers and unnatural (synthetic) polymers. Natural polymers include proteins such as cellulose and starch and are a necessity for our existence. On the other hand‚ synthetic polymers such as the polycarbonate in our lab goggles
