Practical 2.1- The Effect of Temperature on Membranes Objective To investigate the effect of temperature on membrane structure Introduction Beetroot Pigments Beetroots contain Betalains which are the red pigments present in the cell vacuole. Betalains are soluble in water and they contain nitrogen. Betalains extracted from beetroot is commonly used as food dye because it is not known to cause any allergic reactions.

Introduction For this experiment‚ we are going to determine the effect of temperature on solubility‚ to be done in a chemical by dissolving a solute in a definite amount of solution which is saturated. Specifically‚ the goal of this experiment is to prepare a saturated solution of Na2C2O4 in water at different temperatures‚ determine the effect of temperature in solubility‚ and to apply Le Chatelier’s Principle. We can do all this by simply titrating a certain amount of standard KMnO4‚ and measuring

WHY DOES THE COLOUR LEAK OUT OF COOKED BEETROOT? PLAN Hypothesis Temperature has an effect on the leaking of the colour from beetroot. This means that as the temperature is altered there will be a change in the rate of colour leakage. Scientific Background Beetroot is a very familiar vegetable and is commonly known as beet. It is famous in most recipe books that advice that its outer skin is not to be removed to avoid getting red dye in the cooking water. If we look at the internal structure

Chemistry 112: Anion Analysis Page 7 ANION ANALYSIS M uch of the work you will be doing in the Chemistry 112 laboratory will be concerned with identifying positive and negative ions‚ that is‚ cations and anions‚ in solutions whose composition is unknown. This procedure is called QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS. The modern chemist frequently wishes to identify the constituents in a very small amount of substance‚ and so he depends heavily on instrumental methods of analysis. While the procedures

I am presenting to you my three major papers that I wrote for my Composition 101 online class. The first paper that we had to write was a literacy narrative‚ it didn’t need any research but we had to remember a time that made our reading or writing experience memorable. Our second paper that we had to write was a Cause and Effect Essay‚ we had to do a little research to get information. I chose to write about stress and how it can affect academic success. Our third paper was a Persuasive Commentary

How reaction rate varies with sodium thiosulphate concentration Background information Sodium thiosulphate and hydrochloric acid are both colourless liquids‚ when the two reactants are reacted together they produce sulphur. The sulphur that is produced from the reaction changes the solution to yellow and cloudy‚ this is a precipitation reaction‚ where a two solutions react and a solid forms in the solution‚ the solid is said to precipitate out. Some reactions will occur quickly such as fireworks

Solutions Solutions are a combination of solvents and solutes. When a solute dissolves into a solvent‚ the combined product of the two reactants is called a solution. The definition of a solute is the reactant that’s being dissolved. The only difference from a solute and a solvent is that the solvent is the one that’s doing the dissolving. Molecules randomly flow in all directions until there is an equal concentration throughout the solution. The dissolving process can vary depending
