Tetrapyrrole compounds: chlorophyll and heme groups By Erwin Lim 1. Tetrapyrrole compounds A tetrapyrrole compound is a chemical group that consists of four pyrroles that are joined together by covalent bonds‚ forming a porphyrin ring. They are naturally occurring pigments‚ which are used in many biological processes (Berg‚ 2009). The basic structure of a tetrapyrrole is as seen in Figure 1‚ while the basic structure of a pyrrole is as seen in Figure 2. Figure 1.Tetrapyrrole Compound (Berg‚ 2009)

Properties of Substances- Gr.12 Chemistry Final Lab Report Lab: Properties of Substances M. Nguyen SCH4U April 27‚ 2012 Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to use a variety of tests to identity the type of bonds which are present in each solid. Various substances (paraffin wax‚ sucrose‚ sodium chloride‚ tin‚ and silicon dioxide) were experimented and identified with tests for hardness‚ solubility‚ conductivity‚ and the time for the solid to melt with a candle and Bunsen burner

TYPES OF COMPOUNDS Endocentric: AB = B A= modifier B= head Take a look at the following example toothpaste Is it a type of tooth? or; Is it a type of paste? Definition of toothpaste from www.macmillandictionary.com soft thick subtance (paste) that you put on a toothbrush to clean your teeth Tooth is the modifier (A) of the head (B) paste. AB=B toothpaste = a type of paste for brushing teeth In most cases the head is the rightmost component of the compound. English N-N Compounds *

COORDINATION COMPOUNDS: * FLEXIDENTATE CHARACTER OF POLYDENTATE LIGANDS; * Poly dentate ligands have flexi dentate character in the sense that all donors atoms may not form coordinate bonds with the central metal atom or ion. For example; EDTA which is the hexa dentate ligand also acts as tetra dentate or penta dentate in certain complexes. Similarly sulphate ion‚ which is a bi dentate ligand‚ also acts as a mono dentate ligand in certain complexes‚ e.g. in [Co(SO4)(NH3)5]Cl. * LABILE

Identifying Ionic Compounds Written by Ashleigh Lara. In our experiment we were given 5 different cations who’s mixture of anions ranged from five to three different solutions. At every single station we were given the following materials a spot plate‚ a dropper‚ and the chemicals used to mix with our main substance. Each substance received 3 drops of the different chemicals which were able to give us an observation of what the compound was made into. Many of our experiments color‚ texture and solubility

Skills: Planning and Design Topic: Pure and Impure Matter Date: January 13‚ 2012 Problem: Troy was told that the presence of an impurity raises the boiling point of water. Troy wanted to carry out an experiment with salt water and distilled water to determine which would have a higher boiling point. Suggest a plan and design for this lab. Hypothesis: The salt water will have a higher boiling point than the distilled water. Variables: Controlled: the amount of distilled water and salt. Manipulated:

Naming Chemical Compounds General Information: Scientists all around the globe use a standard method for naming chemical compounds. The standards were set up by an international committee sponsored by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). Having this standard makes life easier for people who use these compounds everyday. It would be tough to set up any experiment if scientists everywhere used different names for the same compound. It would also make the lab a
