Modern methods of food production have altered radically from processes used in the past. Many food producing companies have invented their own improved techniques of cooking. Most of these procedures contain numerous different forms of chemical additives and one of the newest chemical substances that will enhance food flavor is monosodium glutamate (MSG). Even though it has no taste of its own‚ it intensifies considerably the taste of a wide variety of food as well as revealing flavors that could

colorless‚ the end point titrations using KMnO4 as the titrant can be taken as the first pink color that appears in the solution (and stays without disappearing). The titration which involves the oxidation of Fe2+ ion to Fe3+ by permanganate ion‚ is carried out in sulfuric acid to prevent air-oxidation of Fe2+ (we can them determine the accurate number of oxygen reacted this way).

and to understand how a reduction-oxidation relationship works to produce spontaneity. Lastly‚ these results were used to determine the Faraday’s constant and Avogadro’s number by electrolysis‚ which is chemical decomposition produced by passing an electrical current through a solution with ions. The primary objective of part one of this experiment was to discover how the properties of an electrochemical cell works. An electrochemical cell is based on an oxidation-reduction reaction and is composed

How did the amount of Sodium Citrate‚ an anticoagulant‚ added to a Calcium Chloride solution affect the volume of the clots formed when a sodium alginate solution‚ a blood simulation‚ was introduced? Mackenzie Keesor (Fall Semester 2017-2018) Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to observe the differences in the formation of simulated blood clots when different amounts of sodium citrate‚ an anticoagulant‚ was added to the coagulation process‚ which would help gain information about the process

took place by using the oxidation numbers in the equation. Variables: 1. I cleaned the reaction surface to limit contamination 2. I held the chemicals at approximately a 90 degree angle for consistency Introduction: Redox reactions occur when both oxidation and reduction take place. All atoms can be assigned an oxidation number‚ which is a positive or negative number that help in determining the reducing and/or oxidizing agents in an equation. An increase in the oxidation number of an atom from

Sodium‚ one of many elements in the periodic table is being used in everyday life‚ it is also an essential element within your body. It is just another element‚ but one of the differences is that this element is something that most people consume every day. Sodium has played an important role in everyday life because of its uses in medicine‚ industry‚ and agriculture(Shriver). Sodium was discovered in 1807 by a man named Sir Humphrey Davy. He was well known for his discoveries of most alkali metals

In the experiment‚ we tested a sodium chloride solution. Along with the tested solution‚ control groups (water and sodium phosphate) were used to be help understand whether or not NaCl was a buffer. Water was the negative control group and sodium phosphate was the positive control group. If NaCl was a buffer than the pH would be stabled as the sodium phosphate buffer. If NaCl was not a buffer than the pH would fluctuate like the negative control‚ water. During the first trial and prior to the drops

Making Sodium Chloride Equipment: Method: 1. Firstly‚ safety measures were taken by putting on laboratory coats‚ wearing safety goggles and tying long hair back. This was to protect clothing‚ eyes and to avoid burning as the experiment included dealing with open flames. 2. The equipment needed (as shown and labelled in picture A) was collected. 3. Using a measuring cylinder for each‚ to be exact with measurements‚ we measured out 10cm³ of HCl and 10cm³

INTRODUCTION Sodium hypochlorite is considered one of the most efficient irrigant in endodontics 1-4. Due to its antimicrobial‚ tissue dissolving properties and low cost‚ it is one of the most widely accepted irrigant in Endodontic practice 5-8. Sodium hypochlorite as a solution is relatively an unstable compound. On exposure to organic compounds‚ heat‚ light‚ air and metals‚ the available chlorine ions reduce and there is subsequent loss of tissue dissolving and antimicrobial properties 9-10. Recent
