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

Introduction The aims of the lab session was to familiarize with the principles‚ operation and application of a light spectrophotometer. This report discusses an experiment to study the relationship of absorbance and concentration‚ the interaction of electromagnetic radiant energy(ERE) and matter which is an important aspect of the Beer-Lambert ’s Law. This law states that the absorption of a compound is directly proportional to the concentration of that particular compound. This is because (a &

Ethanoic acid is a weak acids. That means that its solution contains a high proportion of molecules that haven’t split into ions. For all the reactions which give off hydrogen‚ the same ionic equation applies - whether the acid is strong or weak: Mg(s) + 2H+(aq) Mg2+(aq) + H2(g) The key factors to vary‚ control or take into account The amount of heat given out will depend on the mass of magnesium I use - the more magnesium I use‚ the more of the above reaction happens. But because I am going to

Staphylococcus aureus: From a Spot to the Hospital The hospital is silent this morning‚ as the sun breaks through the blinds and casts off all the silver objects in the room. My hospital bed is uncomfortable‚ and it makes me yearn for my 100-year-old mattress and many unnecessary plush-pillows. The smell of bleach and cleanliness lingers in my nose and almost makes me feel sicker. How did I end up here? Well‚ that is not an adrenaline rushed injury or a freak accident‚ but something that started

Antibiotic Lab Report By: Sierra Toll Hour: 6 Title: The effects of antibiotics on the growth of Escherichia Coli Problem: How do antibiotics affect the growth of E coli? Hypothesis: If Penicillin is applied to the bacteria‚ then the zone of inhibition will be larger. Background: The purpose of this lab was to see how effective a certain antibiotic is to kill E coli. The lab tested three antibiotics‚ Penicillin‚ Erythromycin‚ and Neomycin. The zone of inhibition‚ which is the amount of space

Observing Bacteria Kelli Jo Simco Microbiology Due: 2/8/13 Abstract: Microscopes are fragile instruments that must be handle with extreme caution as they can produce high quality results when observing the smallest specimens on earth. A microscope must be properly cleaned before use and storage. The different objectives allow for a range of observations. At the highest objectives‚ the resolution can easily be lost which is why the oil immersion lens is used to minimize refraction. While
