is an often-used method for purifying solids. Recrystallization works by taking advantage of the different solubility properties of compounds‚ and allows impurities to be removed from crude solids. Performing a recrystallization is usually a straightforward task. First‚ you add a small amount of solvent to the impure compound in a flask‚ and heat the contents until all the material has dissolved. Then‚ you cool the solution‚ allowing crystals of purified solid to crash out of solution‚ while undesirable

et al Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to determine how light affected photosynthesis‚ specifically the production of O2 bubbles. It was predicted that when the light was more intense the O2 bubble production will be high. Conversely‚ when the light was less intense the O2 bubble production will be lower. Basically the plant that is closer to the light will produce more bubbles than the plant that is placed farther away from the light source. In this lab the independent variable is the light

Carbohydrate Lab Report Introduction Qualitative identification of a substance is of significant importance in chemistry. Physical constants such as melting points have traditionally been used by organic chemistry for identification of unknown compounds. As for inorganic substances‚ the precipitation of a solid‚ results of a flame test‚ or the formation of a colored substance could all be keys to identifying a sample. Chromatography and spectra are amongst the newer techniques

fractional distillations for both n-propanol and acetone provided a better distillation. The data and graphs support the statement since the fractional graphs provided a steeper slope than the simple distillation. The steeper slope represent how fast the mixture are separated throughout the distillations. For example‚ the simple distillation for acetone the slope initially started at about 20 mL at about 65.5℃ and ended at about 30 mL at 101 ℃ in which plateau throughout the distillation. The fractional distillation

Introduction In the amylase lab‚ it was being tested if amylase‚ an enzyme found in saliva‚ would be denatured by being put in an acid or high temperatures. This lab is about denaturing amylase. It is tested by exposing it to pH and temperature changes. It is then mixed with Benedict’s solution‚ is a solution that changes color from blue to reddish brown when maltose is present. Amylase breaks starch into maltose‚ so is the amylase isn’t denatured‚ it should change colors. Amylase is an enzyme

SCIE211 Phase 2 Lab Report Title: Speciation Instructions: You will need to write a 1-page lab report using the scientific method to answer the following question: • What would happen if a species within a population were suddenly split into 2 groups by an earthquake that creates a physical barrier like a canyon? When your lab report is complete‚ post it in Submitted Assignment files. Part I: Use the animated time progression of speciation to help you write up your lab report. Part II: Write

clean test tube and think about what would happen if more liver was placed in this liquid. Place the liver into the liquid mixture of hydrogen peroxide and liver and the new mixture didn’t fizz as much as with just the hydrogen peroxide and one thing of liver. The thought of what would happen when adding more liver to the mixture was correct because it was thought that the mixture would cause a smaller reaction and it did. If more hydrogen peroxide was then added to the liver from the previous steps

graduated cylinder. The 50g of catalase and the 50ml of distilled water will be put into a blender and blended until liquefied. The catalase solution will then be introduced to a Buchner funnel filtration system to separate the catalase extract from any solid particles left over from the blending process. This step will be repeated until all of the catalases have been blended and filtered. Next‚ 5 ml of hydrogen peroxide will be measured out using a graduated cylinder. It will then be poured into a small

Biosphere Lab Report A biosphere can be defined a lot of different ways. Our interpretation of a biosphere is the area in which life can be contained within. In the case of the earth‚ it means as high as a bird can fly and as deep as fish can swim in the ocean. A biosphere is a closed system that has a constant flow of energy between the organisms living within it and it needs nothing outside of itself but sunlight to continue to be sustained. At the University of Arizona‚ they attempted to build
