Formal Lab Report #1 I. Basics Title of the Experiment: The Empirical Formula of an Oxide Authors: Section Number: Chemistry Location and Date II. Abstract The aim in this lab was to determine the empirical formula of an oxide of magnesium through combustion in air. This was achieved by heating an established mass of magnesium in air inside of a crucible‚ ultimately attaining a compound that contained Mg and O. The major result of the experiment was the empirical formula of the oxide of magnesium

Clement Organic Chemistry 2423‚ Section 304 25 October 2017 Lab 6: Natural Products I The main goal of this experiment was to employ isolation techniques to derive chemicals from two different natural sources and study their properties (Clement 91). The two natural sources used in this experiment were an orange (the peel contains limonene‚ which is a terpene) and a dichloromethane solution of clove oil (which contains eugenol‚ an acetogenin). To isolate the eugenol

Introduction! ! The Michelson Interferometer is commonly used to determine the wavelength of light or measure very small distances. It was invented by Albert Abraham Michelson and is commonly used in optical interferometry‚ a branch of physics involving a family of techniques one could use to extract information about waves by superimposing them. ! ! The original application of the Michelson Interferometer was to the famous Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887. Prior to Einstein’s

TITLE OF EXPERIMENT 2 : DILUTION 2.1: OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this experiment‚ students should be able to: 1. determine the concentration of coloured solution such as FeCl3 by using dilution and colour differentiating (colorimetric) techniques. 2.2: INTRODUCTION Concentration can be expressed in many different ways such as percentage volume and percentage weight etc. In laboratory‚ normally concentrations were expressed as molarity and normality. Molarity is the

OLD COINS TURN TO GOLD DESIGN: Problem or Research Question: How does zinc effects the color change in a copper penny? Hypothesis: If copper and zinc comes together‚ then it will form brass‚ which gives gold color to copper penny. Variables: There were no variables at this experiment PROCEDURES: Materials: Zinc (SN) filling‚ 3M NaOH solution‚ Copper penny‚ tongs‚ Hot plate‚ 100 ml beaker‚ 250 ml beaker‚ Bunsen burner‚ Water‚ Spoon. Procedure: First‚ we turned on the hot plate.

Lauren Sullivan Plants Imperfections Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to plant different crosses and observe the different phenotypic ratios the plants present. The procedure of this experiment was plant six different crosses and water them correctly so that we could observe the different phenotypes and compare them to Mendel’s proposed ratios. Mendel‚ who had studied peas‚ did a similar experiment and came up with specific ratios that a monohybrid and dihybrid cross should show. His

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

hydrogen peroxide is caused and instantaneous reaction time. This is due to the enzyme catalase. If the enzyme catalase was not present in the human body‚ hydrogen peroxide‚ which is highly toxic to cells‚ would attack the unsaturated fatty acid compounds in the membrane of lipids.2 This would cause substantial damage to the membrane structure. Since catalase utilizes hydrogen peroxide as both an electron acceptor and donor it oxidizes hydrogen peroxide isolating oxygen while it simultaneously reduces
