The color intensity was observed by eye and measured using a spectrophotometer. Of the solvents that had beetroot‚ .9% saline had a color intensity of .002‚ 1% acetone had .009‚ 25% acetone produced an intensity of .119‚ 50% with the intensity of .647‚ 1% alcohol had .006‚ 25% alcohol had .022‚ and 50% alcohol had .177. The highest concentration of acetone inflicted more damage on the membrane of the beetroot causing it to leak its betacyanin in a higher intensity than any of the other solvents had caused. Acetone and methanol can both cause

EXPERIMENT I Photoreduction of Benzophenone Introduction The study of chemical reactions‚ isomerizations and physical behavior that may occur under the influence of visible and/or ultraviolet light is called Photochemistry. The fundamental principles for understanding photochemical transformations are that light must be absorbed by a compound in order for a photochemical reaction to take place‚ and that for each photon of light absorbed by a chemical system only one molecule is activated for

The Charge/Mass (e/m) Ratio of the Electron PHYS 0212: Introduction to Laboratory Physics Fall 2012 Abstract The experiment conducted demonstrated correlation between the charge and mass of an electron and the behavior of magnetic fields. The lab was divided into four parts. The first three parts were conducted with a compass that was used to locate the magnetic field lines around a bar magnet‚ a solenoid and then a pair of Helmholtz coils. As a result of these trials‚ our observations found

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

Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to see how the colour of an apple would change (browning) over time‚ when placed in different conditions. When referring to the term “browning”‚ it is meant to imply the change of colour that occurs inside the apple‚ giving an appearance that is distasteful (Di Guardo et al.‚ 2013). Specifically‚ within this lab the apple was cut into 4 pieces with 3 pieces being placed on a weigh boat‚ and a 4th piece placed in a beaker of water. These weigh boats were

purpose of this lab is to identify the different features that come about by using oxidation reduction and recording the observations‚ these tests will help determine the specific qualities each solution has. Hypothesis I theorize that nothing will happen with Magnesium because it is such a soft metal. Zinc should turn a greener color‚ because that’s what happens to a lot of statues and sculptures. I theorize that iron will tarnish badly because in air it can get tarnished so oxidation must do something

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
