In this experiment‚ we strove to determine how effective different sugars were in fermentation by measuring their CO2 emissions. An increased CO2 production implies the substrate is undergoing glycolysis more often‚ resulting in increased ATP synthesis. For a more accurate interpretation of the results‚ glucose acted as a positive control‚ displaying the most efficiency in fermentation as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2‚ while ethanol‚ which is a byproduct of fermentation‚ acted as a negative control

Experiment 28: The reaction of Butanols with Hydrobromic Acid Pre-lab Objective: The objective of this experiment is to synthesize 1-bromobutane and 2-bromobutane with different catalyst:substrate ratios to determine which ratio is the most economically favorable. Discussion: In this experiment‚ 1-butanol or 2-butanol will be converted to the corresponding alkyl bromide with HBR‚ while using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The sulfuric acid will accelerate the chemical reaction with being consumed

In this laboratory voltmeters where utilized to take reading of three different electrochemical reactions: Pb/Zn‚ Pb/Cu‚ and Zn/Cu. A salt bridge was placed between two reactions containing metal strips in separate aq solutions. The salt bridge was placed in order to balance the reaction. The voltage measurements for Pb/Zn‚ Pb/Cu‚ and Zn/Cu where .595 V‚ .479 V‚ and 1.072 V accordingly. The values obtained where then used to determine the voltage value for the reduction half. The resulting cell potential

Based on my calculations‚ the theoretical yield of Aluminum was 18.160g‚ and the actual yield was 18.287g. This gives a percent yield of 100.699%. Evidence/ Reasoning: By looking at the overall reaction involved in the lab‚ we can see that two moles of Aluminum are needed to react in the reaction‚ producing 2 moles of KAl(SO4)2 ·12H2O. This lets us know that however many moles of Aluminum there are in the original sample will be equal to

EXPERIMENT 1 DETERMINATION OF ASCORBIC ACID CONTENT IN VITAMIN C TABLETS INTRODUCTION To calculate the mass of the ascorbic acid and hence the mass percentage of ascorbic acid in the vitamin C tablet. PROCEDURES (Refer to Lab Manual) 1. Accurately weight vitamin C (effervescent type) in a 50 ml beaker. Add about 30 ml of deionised water to dissolve the vitamin C tablet. Once the tablet has dissolved completely‚ transfer the solution into a 250 ml volumetric flask via a plastic filter

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation
