Name: Alicia Rose Date: 08/28/2014 Graded Assignment Lab Report Answer the questions below. When you are finished‚ submit this assignment to your teacher by the due date for full credit. (3 points) Score 1. How do you calculate magnification on a microscope? Answer: The shortest lens is the scanning objective; you use it to locate the object on the slide. The medium-length lens is the low-power objective. The longest lens is the high-power objective. Multiplying the power of the eyepiece

Leila Espinal Grade 8 O.L.C.A. November 20‚ 2013 Lab Report 1. Problem: To find the density of a Hershey chocolate bar. 2. Hypothesis: I think the chocolate bar will gradually decrease in density as it gets smaller. 3: Materials: 1 whole Hershey chocolate bar‚ ruler‚ triple balance beam‚ tray‚ calculator. 4. Procedure: First‚ find the mass‚ volume‚ and density of an entire Hershey Bar. Then‚ systematically‚ break off one section at a time to calculate the

Plant Pigments and Photosynthesis Problem: We are going to separate and identify pigments and other molecules from cell extracts through a process called chromatography. We will also test the theory that light and chloroplasts are required for light reactions to occur. Background: Pigments are chemical compounds which reflect only certain wavelengths of visible light. This is what makes them seem colorful. Many things contain pigments including flowers‚ corals‚ and even skin. More important than

Joe Schmoe Period 3 March 8‚ 2013 Lab Report: Empirical Formula of Zinc Chloride (ZnCl) * Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to learn how to determine the empirical formula. Empirical means “based on experimental evidence.” * Experimental Design The reaction that occurred was the reaction of the elements Zinc (Zn) and Chloride (Cl) by mixing a piece(s) of Zinc and 50mL of Hydrochloric Acid (HCl). The amount of Zinc was determined to be between 1.00g and 1.25g. As the reaction

Lab Report 1: Natural Selection Introduction: In today’s lab we learned how natural selection and survival of the fitness took place in Darwin theory by testing it out with four different utensils which were Spoon‚ Fork‚ chopstick‚ and clothespin which represent the four different types of bird beaks. Our goal was to see which one utensil ( bird beak) would outcome the other four utensil ( bird beak) by being able to survive with the limit amount of food‚ the environmental chances‚ and see who

Photosynthesis Lab Kozlowski Kendal Schweiss Hour 6 Introduction: Photosynthesis is carbohydrate production using light and chlorophyll. It is a process when green plants and other organisms turn carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen‚ using light energy trapped by chlorophyll. The rate of photosynthesis can be measured by either the disappearance of substrate or the accumulation of product. 2H2O + CO2 + light -> carbohydrate (CH2O) + O2 + H2O There is a spongy mesophyll

Objective: The objective of the lab is to separate the caffeine samples we are using‚ using thin layer chromatography. The solvent we are using for the separation is 3:1 mixture of Chloroform and Acetone. Principle: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is an important technique that is useful for separating organic compounds. TLC is often used to monitor the progress of organic reactions and to check the purity of products. Separations in Thin layer chromatography involve distributing a mixture of

They use the absorption of light to aid in photosynthesis‚ and protect chlorophyll from damage. In humans‚ Lycopene acts as an antioxidant. Lycopene is found in various fruits and vegetables. The purpose of this experiment is the isolation of Lycopene from tomato paste. This is done using liquid/solid extraction and chromatography. Once the Lycopene is isolated‚ IR spectroscopy will determine its percentage actually obtained by chromatography. Procedure: A massed sample of 1.012g of

Chromatography is a process used to separate mixtures. The word chromatography is derived from the Greek words ‘khroma’ and ‘graphein’ meaning ‘color’ and ‘to write’ or to represent. Although there are a couple different types of chromatography‚ in each case a substance is placed onto or into a medium and a solvent is passed through the test substance. In chromatography science‚ the solvent is called the mobile phase or the carrier fluid and the medium is called the stationary phase. There are four
