Crystallization: Lab Report Theory/Introduction The purpose of this lab is to understand the concept of purification through crystallization. Crystallization is the process of purifying a substance‚ with the most adequate solvent. The process of crystallization came to be based on the principle of solubility. First‚ we must choose a solvent. The solvent is crucial to crystallization because it’s what will allow impurities to dissolve. Therefore‚ when selecting a solvent it is important that it

Abstract Photosynthesis is a food making process for algae and plants. The photosynthesis process rate varies from different wavelengths and intensities of light. This lab will evaluate the optimal wavelengths and degrees of intensity during photosynthesis when chloroplast is exposed to light. The mixtures of DCPIP with water‚ PO4 buffer‚ and chloroplast will be prepared in a number of cuvettes. The cuvettes were tested individually at different wavelengths and intensities to find the optimal rate

CO2 Lab Report Intro Alka-Seltzer tablets are used to treat cold/flu symptoms as it produces CO2 when dissolved in water. The goal of this lab is to calculate the amount of NaHCO3 is needed to produce enough CO2 gas to fill the room. Experimental One Alka-Seltzer tablet was weighed on the analytical balance. Then a piece was measured out to be between 0.21 and 0.28 grams. 500mL of distilled water was added to a 600mL beaker. 80mL of water was mixed with 20mL of 6M HCl in a 150mL beaker. A

BIOLOGY LAB REPORT (UNIT 7: ENZYMES) GENERAL Enzymes are protein that acts as catalyst‚ lowering the activation energy need for reactions to progress in cells. The reaction can still occur without the presence of the enzyme‚ but at a much slower rate. The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy need for a chemical reaction to occur‚ yielding from a given set of reactants. In enzymatic reactions‚ we have substrates which are reactants of reaction bound to an enzyme. While an active site

Formal Lab Report #1 I. Basics Title of the Experiment: The Empirical Formula of an Oxide Authors: Section Number: Chemistry Location and Date II. Abstract The aim in this lab was to determine the empirical formula of an oxide of magnesium through combustion in air. This was achieved by heating an established mass of magnesium in air inside of a crucible‚ ultimately attaining a compound that contained Mg and O. The major result of the experiment was the empirical formula of the oxide of magnesium

Introduction This report will investigate the six essential nutrients required in our diet. The report will provide the function of each nutrient and explore why they are vital for the body. Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are the most important nutrient for the body as it is the largest possible source of energy. Carbohydrate supplies the body with energy‚ which allows the brain to function more effectively and allows organs to operate sufficiently. When the body has energy this allows each

Introduction The purpose of this lab was to identify unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests‚ and my unknown bacteria is #17. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways‚ each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures. The differential
