Candy Chromatography: What makes those colors? The point of doing this project is to use paper chromatography to see which dyes are used in the coatings of your favorite colored candies. Chromatography is a technique for separating mixtures. Chromatography can be used to separate specific components from a complex mixture‚ based on molecular size or other chemical properties. It can also be used to identify chemicals‚ for example crime scene samples like blood‚ drugs‚ or explosive residue. Highly

Purpose In this lab‚ we used PCR and gel electrophoresis to identify genetically modified food. Introduction A genetically modified organism is an organism whose DNA or genetic makeup has been modified to code for certain desirable traits("Genetically Modified Foods"). Common genetically modified plants include corn and soy‚ and common genetically modified animals are fish. Many genetically modified plants are coded to resist bugs‚ grow faster‚ and produce bigger fruit‚ while most GMO animals

Its adaptation to a parallel synthesis format is straightforward. Since the dyes vary widely in color‚ the diversity of this parallel synthesis becomes obvious. It includes techniques on diazotization and electrophilic substitiution. The experient belo is made to allow studens to

101 9/6/13 Hair Dye Hair dye has always been a controversial product. Many believe that it is harmful to not only the consumer but to the environment. While other believe that it is perfectly okay to use and that the only cons to it is that it can dry your hair out or turn it orange. But what really are the pros and cons of hair dye? Is it safe? No doubt there are many different kinds‚ and colors as well as purposes. Let’s take a look at the various kinds and see why hair dye is one of the most

of Matter into Pure Substances – Paper Chromatography Abstract The purpose of this laboratory was to determine how different substances have different solubilities in a given solvent. This was accomplished using the method of chromatography. The solubility of each substance was first determined by dropping a drop or two of each on a line drawn 2 inches above the bottom of a piece of paper. Then the paper was lightly bent in order to tape both sides of the paper leaving about a 4 centimeter gap

Whitney Miller Chemistry 111-D01L 3/31/2013 Calorie Content of Food Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to measure the energy content of three different food items using the change in water temperatures from the heat of the food. Procedure: 1. With your digital scale determine the empty weight of your 100-mL beaker. 2. Half-fill the beaker with water (approximately 50 ml) and weigh it again. 3. The beaker and water weight minus the empty beaker weight is the net weight of water

What is chromatography- Chromatography is the separation of mixture by passing it in solution or suspension or as vapor. It’s a technique for separating mixtures into the components this needs to happen in order to do the 4 things analyze‚identify‚purify‚quantify. Many scientist use this to do the 4 steps. When analyzing its used to examine the mixture and to find out the relation with one another. In purifying you need to seperate or take away and put it by itself for further study. In identifying

Abstract: The purpose of this lab experiment was to discover genetically modified organisms. We analyzed our results and found that our sample was GMO positive. These results were attained through polymerase chain reaction and agarose gel electrophoresis. We came to the conclusion that the presence of a band in lane 4 confirms that there are indeed genetically modified organisms. Introduction: Overall‚ the main purpose of this experiment was to conduct gel electrophoresis combined with PCR in

Is Higher Education Worth the Price? The question of whether or not higher education is actually “worth it” is an entirely subjective on. To objectively determine if higher education will give a high return on investment‚ one needs to first understand what they are hoping to gain out of the entire experience. Higher education does worth the price because it helps students to build their self-fulfillment‚ provide more monetary opportunities and reach their final goal . In the United States‚ for

Chromatography • • • Separation based on polarity of compounds Two potential phases for a compound to exist in: mobile and stationary Partitioning of compounds between mobile phase and stationary phase occurs: o Compounds that are less polar move more in the mobile phase‚ those that are more polar “stick” more on the stationary phase o These polarity differences cause compounds move at different rates and therefore can be separated 1. Mobile Phase: the phase the moves; can be gas or
