Experiment 42: Ferrocene Preparation Introduction: The purpose of the lab is to prepare ferrocene from ferrous chloride and cyclopentadiene. Ferrocene‚ an organometallic‚ is a combination of two cyclopentadienide ions with a ferrous cation‚ such that the six pi electrons binds every carbon equally to the metal forming a sandwich type structure. Ferrocene has the properties of both an activated benzene (undergoes electrophilic substitution reactions) and a ferrous ion (oxidation reaction). Glyme

human evolution. Although no humans are being observed in this lab the concept of evolution is going to be looked up. The speciation is to see if by different modifications in the environment create a new species of finches. If no new species develop or the finches do not evolve to the changes in their surroundings will natural selection happen and will we no longer have finches on this island?

The temperature of water was determined by a thermometer. 1 cm stripped ends of the wires was hooked into the input posts on the back of the impendence converter. Lab tutor module was started after. B. Baseline heart rate The top of the container was covered with foil and the animal was allowed to sit quietly for 10 min. The trace was examined by pressing start. After that the baseline or the controlled

Polypeptides‚ better known as proteins‚ carry out nearly all of a cell’s functions. A protein is made up of at least one or more amino acid polymers. The necessity of proteins for life is unequivocal‚ not only do they help to form the structures of cells but they act as enzymes in reactions of the body1. Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower the amount of activation energy needed in carrying out biochemical reactions1. Enzymes are responsible for almost every reaction that occurs in a cell

higher resolution and more light‚ you need to put more than one mirror together and make them work together‚” explains Robert Angel‚ a professor of astrology at the University of Arizona (Giant Mirrors to Capture the Universe). Just as we learned in our lab‚ we need a good source of light for something to become clear. The mirrors that are used for the telescope cause the light to be reflected off of one mirror onto the other which then create a clear image from the large convex lens. “Because these

Objective: The objective of the lab is to separate the caffeine samples we are using‚ using thin layer chromatography. The solvent we are using for the separation is 3:1 mixture of Chloroform and Acetone. Principle: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is an important technique that is useful for separating organic compounds. TLC is often used to monitor the progress of organic reactions and to check the purity of products. Separations in Thin layer chromatography involve distributing a mixture of

RER of 0.7 means that carbohydrates are being used for fuel‚ and a ratio of 1.0 means that only fatty acids are being used for fuel; of course‚ values can fall between. Methods: To observe the effects of prolonged exercise on the metabolic system the lab subject needed to walk on the treadmill at a rate that kept his heart rate at 60% of his maximum. The
