Bio Cement The project aims at attaining high durability of concrete and gaining high strength of cement. We plan to make use of bacterial species which can hydrolyze the enzyme Urease efficiently to produce microbial concrete. Such bacterial are known to produce calcium which is useful in giving strength to cement. We are working in 2 stages. Stage 1: Here we check the effect of bacterial solution on cement mortar and along with that we check the effectiveness of the bacterial solution

Experiment 8 Chemical Kinetics Abstract This experiment was done to determine the effects of the nature of the reactants‚ concentration‚ temperature‚ surface area and catalyst on the rate of chemical reactions. The nature of the reactants implies a difference if the reactants are aqueous or organic‚ acidic or basic or if they occur in the same phase or not. Acid-base reactions‚ formation of salts‚ and exchange of ions are fast reactions while reactions in which large molecules are formed

put it into the 100mL beaker‚ add your 25mL of distilled water and stir to form the calcium chloride solution. Next‚ use stoichiometry to determine how much Na2CO3 and put it into a small paper cup. Then add the 25mL of distilled water to make the sodium carbonate solution. Mix the two solutions in the beaker and a precipitate of calcium carbonate will form instantly. Next‚ set up your filtration assembly. After the filtration assembly is ready‚ swirl the contents of the beaker to dislodge any precipitate

particularly in the determination of silica in iron and steel and in cement and other silicate materials. It is also used as a solvent for sulfide ores for the determination of copper and other metals‚ in the separation and determination of the alkali metals sodium and potassium. In the manufacture of anhydrous magnesium perchlorate‚ the best of the absorbents for water in analytical work. It is also a strong standard acid for the titration of bases.

General Chemistry Laboratory 151 Chemiluminescence Introduction: The objective of tis experiment was to carry out systematic series of experiments in order to determine which chemicals and which ratios of chemicals produce the brightest light. Also‚ this experiment will determine which chemical produces the longest light. Chemiluminescence is the emission of light (luminescence)‚ as the result of a chemical reaction. There may also be limited emission of heat. This occurs because the

1. Disposing of Waste - Teachers should be aware of the appropriate method of disposal for any chemical used in the school laboratory. When in doubt‚ refer to the MSDS‚ a disposal manual‚ or the source of the chemical. a. Classification of Hazardous Waste The Environmental Protection Agency classifies wastes as: Ignitable: has a flash point below 140°C‚ is an oxidizer‚ or is an ignitable compressed gas. Corrosive: has a pH equal to or below 2.0 or a pH equal to or greater than 12.5. Reactive:

Chemical Reactions I. Purpose – The purpose of this lab was to observe different type of chemical reactions to write and balance chemical equations. II. Hypothesis: If you mix two chemicals together‚ then they will change color and/or bubble/fix. III. Procedure - Workstation 1: 1. Light the Bunsen Burner 2. Add 5 – 8 mL of HCL to a test tube that’s in the test tube rack 3. Drop a 2 – cm piece of Mg ribbon into the test tube 4. Record Observations 5. Clean Workstation

Experiment 1: Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate via Fischer Esterification Introduction: Isopentyl acetate‚ banana oil‚ is a naturally occurring compound that has a very distinct and recognizable odor. It is most commonly found in bananas but also can be found in other organisms. The purpose of this lab was to synthesize the ester isopentyl acetate via an acid catalyzed esterification (Fischer Esterification) of acetic acid with isopentyl alcohol. Emil Fischer and Arthur Speier were the pioneers

demonstrates the similarity between the value of the sum for Reaction 1 and Reaction 2’s change in temperature‚ compared to Reaction 3’s change in temperature. Reaction 1 was the dissolution of solid sodium hydroxide in water with a ΔH°rxn of -47047 J/mol‚ Reaction 2 was the neutralization of liquid sodium hydroxide with HCl with a ΔH°rxn of -31289 J/mol and Reaction 3 was the dissolution and neutralization of solid NaOH with HCl with a ΔH°rxn of -91000 J/mol. Consequently‚ the sum of Reaction 1 and
