EXPERIMENT NO. 1 INTRODUCTION TO LAB INSTRUMENTS. 1. BREADBOARD We should be familiar to the following things about a breadboard: * What is a breadboard and what is it used for? * How does it work? * Setting Up. * Limitations. What is a breadboard and what is it used for? A breadboard (or protoboard) is usually a construction base for prototyping of electronics. The term "breadboard" is commonly used to refer to a solderless breadboard (plugboard). It was designed by

AP-2 Lab 02 – Lab Report Name: Lab Report: Exercise 2: Blood Purpose: Explain why you did this lab and what if any safety precautions needed to be followed. This lab was done to learn about blood on a micro and macroscopic level. There are safety concerns when using bodily fluids. Gloves were needed and caution with the use of the lancet was important‚ which included keeping it sterile. Activity 1: Observing Your Own Blood Observations: Sketch and describe what you

Miguel Paulo D. Valdez BS Chem-3 EXPERIMENT 14- Heat Effects and Calorimetry Objective/ Introduction: Heat is a form of energy‚ sometimes called thermal energy‚ which can pass spontaneously from an object at a high temperature to an object at a lower temperature. If the two objects are in contact‚ they will‚ given sufficient time‚ both reach the same temperature. Heat always travels from hot to cold objects and two objects will reach an equilibrium temperature. Heat flow is commonly measured

Daphnia are cold-blooded poikilotherms that rely on heat from the surrounding water to maintain their body temperature. An increase in the water temperature should equate to an increase in metabolic activity due to enzymes working at a temperature closer to their optimum level. However‚ once the optimum temperature has been exceeded‚ the enzymes will begin to denature. Hydrogen bonds‚ which keep the protein conformation‚ begin to break‚ causing a change in shape of the active site; substrates

After conducting the experiment and gathered the required data‚ we came to conclusion that certain environmental factors affect the enzyme activity rate. For the first experiment‚ where we tested the increase in concentration of enzyme with the substrate‚ we found that higher concentration of enzyme increases the rate of reaction of the enzyme. This is because more enzyme molecules are present‚ which allow more substrate molecules to get into the active sites of the enzyme (Sattler W& Esterbauer

Abstract: This report presents the reason why the ocean does not freeze in the winter. Since the ocean consists of salt water‚ an experiment was done to test the effect of freezing on salt water compared to pure water. The experiment was conducted three times in order to obtain accurate results and eliminate errors. In addition to the salt and pure water experiment‚ a variation of this experiment was created to test other options. In the variation experiment the effect of freezing on sugar water
