Lab Report: Toothpickase and Enzymes September 19‚ 2012 Olivia DePhillips Lab Partner: Joy Morgan Meyers Signature: Introduction Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process‚ called substrates‚ are converted into different molecules‚ called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates sufficient for life. Like all catalysts‚ enzymes work

Lab Report 7: Analysis of Cereal Introduction: The objective of this lab was to consult for the FDA regarding a recently surfaced scandal involving false reporting of iron content in cereal as well as iron tablets. The makers of the cereal and the iron tablets‚ respectively‚ were allegedly reporting higher amounts of iron in their products than actually existed‚ as a way to save money but continue to provide products with “adequate” amounts of iron. The FDA needed consulting in order to analyze

Kiley O’Toole Lab Report 3 Purpose The purpose of this lab was to uncover the number of layers of zinc atoms around a piece of galvanized iron. This was done by pouring the hydrochloric acid onto the galvanized iron‚ thus removing the zinc from the piece of metal. Laboratory Procedure 1. Measured and recorded the mass of a piece of galvanized iron using a centigram balance and a ruler 2. Measured and recorded the length and width of the galvanized iron using the ruler 3. Put the

Organic Chemistry II Lab 9 Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose * Introduction Ethanol is one of the oldest alcohols and also the least toxic one. Industrially‚ ethanol is made most economically by hydration of ethylene. However‚ ethanol that is intended for human consumption must‚ by law‚ be prepared by fermentation. By either method‚ ethanol‚ of course‚ has the same formula‚ structure‚ and properties. The fermentation takes place with the assistance of enzymes from yeast

Law December 5‚ 2011 Kylie Case‚ Emma McKee‚ Rebecca Smith Purpose: In this lab‚ the purpose was to verify Hess’s Law. Theory: Four main topics were covered during this experiment including enthalpy of reaction‚ heat of formation‚ Hess’s Law‚ and calorimetry. The first being enthalpy of reaction‚ ΔHrxn‚ which is the heat or enthalpy change for a chemical reaction. The energy change is equal to the amount of heat transferred at a constant pressure in the reaction. The change represents the

Adwoa Fosuah Bio Psych Lab Report 4 Cold Pressor Task Aim The cold pressor test is done by having the subject submerge their hands in a bucket of cold water to determine cardiovascular changes such as blood pressure and heart rate. For this experiment we wanted to know how long participant can keep their feet in the bucket of ice water before they experience any pain while looking at neutral and positive pictures and also rate the intensity of their pain. For this reason we hypothesized that

In the Tumble Buggy Lab‚ my partners and I used several different methods to calculate the velocity of a Tumble Buggy. The methods we used were a meter stick and a timer‚ a Spark Timer‚ a Photogate‚ and a Motion Sensor. Each method was different but overall‚ our velocities were very similar. Using the meter stick and timer‚ our velocity was 0.22 m/s. With the spark timer‚ our velocity was 0.26 m/s. Next‚ the velocity found with the Photogate was 0.325 m/s. Finally‚ when we used the motion sensor
