Photosynthesis Green plants absorb light energy using chlorophyll in their leaves. They use it to react carbon dioxide with water to make a sugar called glucose. The glucose is used in respiration‚ or converted into starch and stored. Oxygen is produced as a by-product. This process is called photosynthesis. Temperature‚ carbon dioxide concentration and light intensity are factors that can limit the rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis summary Photosynthesis [photosynthesis: The chemical change

Reaction tests water splitting in photosynthesis‚ and can be observed when a color change occurs. This color change will occur when a molecule is split and electrons are removed from molecular oxygen and hydrogen ions. DCIP combined with sucrose or ethanol spinach mixtures‚ will give either a green color (indicating photosynthesis occurred) or no color at all (indicating no photosynthesis occurred)‚ depending on the factors and environments to which the mixtures will be tested.

causing hardships‚ increased food prices‚ and other problems. Ethanol has been blamed for the rise of food prices. Since corn is used for many different things such as food for us‚ ethanol gasoline and food for animals. Even though ethanol lowers our gas mileage corn is being used more for ethanol and making it more expensive for the people who would like to eat corn on a cob. In 2013‚ 40% of corn and other crops went to produce ethanol‚ 45% was used for feeding livestock and other animals‚ and only

the mass and the given percent mass of ethanol‚ we found the density of pure ethanol for each known concentration of alcohol‚ and averaged the three calculated densities to give us a density of pure ethanol (0.8391 g/mL) that we could use to calculate the concentration of the unknown solution. We used this to calculate the volume of ethanol in the unknown test tube (7.918 mL)‚ and used the calculated density of ethanol to convert volume ethanol to mass ethanol in the unknown test tube (6.644 g).

Introduction 2 Literature review 2 Conclusion 3 Bibliography/References 3 Price Elasticity of Demand Introduction Ethanol production in the U.S. has grown tremendously in the last decade. Production was averaging one billion gallons per year in the early 1990s‚ grew to four billion gallons in 2005‚ and in 2007 exceeded six billion gallons (Renewable Fuels Association (RFA)). If current plans for new construction and expansion come to completion‚ production capacity will exceed

Distillation of an Ethanol- water Mixture Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to understand the process of distilling a solution. Thesolution of 50/50 ethanol-water was used in the experiment. Using fractional distillationapparatus ethanol-water mixture was separated. The fractional use of copper sponge wasused in distillation process which created the heat exchange area between the vapor of ethanol and liquid water. The fractional distillation process yield 9.5 ml of ethanol incollecting flask

The largest single use of ethanol is as a motor fuel and fuel additive. Ethanol is considered to be better for the environment than gasoline. It is a renewable source of energy and it has been seen as a promising alternative to fossil fuel consumption. However‚ there are some negative aspects in the

Sodium hydroxide forms an approximately 50% (by weight) saturated solution with water. Sodium hydroxide is soluble in water‚ ethanol and methanol. This alkali is deliquescent and readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide in air. Sodium hydroxide is used in many industries‚ mostly as a strong chemical base in the manufacture of pulp and paper‚ textiles‚ drinking water‚ soaps and
