When you blow out a normal candle‚you see thin smoke rising up. The wick is hot enough to vaporize the wax but not hot enough to re-ignite it. In trick candles however‚ they add an ingredient that ignites at a lower temperature then the paraffin wax. This ingredient is usually a pyrophoric metal(metals which ignite at extremely low temperatures). MAGNESIUM is the most commonly used pyrophoric metal in trick candles‚ with the magnesium flakes embedded in the wicks. When you blow out the candle

or too little ethanoic anhydride as well as the sulphuric acid that was also added to the mixture. In part 2 of the experiment I had to measure out 15cm3 of ethanol‚ which I could have measured out incorrectly could have been one of the possibilities to cause an increased a experimental error‚ when I added the crude aspirin to the ethanol if I didn’t boil them at a constant temperature of 75oc‚ if I let them temperature rise or fall out of limits it could lead to a higher percentage of experimental

CHEM 1211 L Principles of Chemistry Lab 16 February 2004 Lab Report 1 Introduction The purpose of this project is to identify an unknown organic acid (X) by conducting various experiments to determine the acid’s unique properties. By determining selected constant properties of the unknown and then comparing these properties to the constant properties of known substances‚ it is possible to identify an unknown substance. The properties used to identify the unknown must be intensive‚ or independent

membrane by forming water soluble complexes with them 4. How does the DNA in the cell lysate become visible? It becomes visible when ethanol is added. Since DNA is insoluble in ethanol‚ it cannot be incorporated into the liquids. Ethanol hits the cell lysate which cause the DNA to precipitate out of the solution‚ forming a cloud of stringy fibers at where ethanol and cell lysate meet. 5. Why can you see the extracted DNA with the naked eye? I can see the extracted DNA with the

The absorbance of the solvent that was hot water affected the most the permeability

Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS Bandar Seri Iskandar 31750 Tronoh Perak Darul Ridzuan ABSTRACT The objective of this project is to optimize the preparation of modified Calcium Oxide (CaO) to capture CO2 by carbonation through hydration of ethanol/water. The carbonation reaction is the basis for CO2 capture systems. However CaO as regenerable CO2 sorbents in industrial processes is limited by the rapid decay of the carbonation conversion with the number of cycle carbonation/ calcination. Therefore

The beetroot cell was almost immediately affected by the 50% alcohol but settled as time past. On the other hand the pigment intensity increased through time with the 25% alcohol solution. The ethanol affects the beetroot cell membrane because the ethanol is a very
