Determination of Rate and Order of a Reaction Results This experiment used a spectrometer to find the wavelength with maximum absorbance in a green food coloring solution. For this particular solution the wavelength was 629.7 nm. The system was then calibrated to that and was set to measure the food coloring and bleach solution. The measured visible light absorbance of the mixed solution was collected over a time of 200 seconds and eight points were then selected and placed into the Absorbance

The purpose of this lab was to investigate whether veins affect photosynthesis rate. It was predicted that having veins would decrease the rate because chloroplast might be less frequent due to the vascular tissue. For this experiment‚ 4 groups were set up: veins and no veins in CO2 solution‚ and veins and no veins in distilled water‚ the distilled water groups served as controls. These 4 groups were placed under a light bulb in order for photosynthesis to occur. No disks experience movement in the
