For this lab it was necessary to bring a watch with a second hand‚ as well as personal protective gear: lab coat‚ safety goggles‚ and safety gloves. It was best to work in pairs and one partner needed to be a timekeeper while the other one would record the data. The timekeeper then would announce every 5 second interval‚ beginning from when the enzyme was added to the tube. On the other hand‚ the recorder would read and record the absorbance from the spectrometer at the 5 second intervals. This was

Sulfur Physical and chemical properties: Sulfur is classified as an odourless‚ tasteless‚ soft‚ light yellow solid. It is insoluble in water‚ but is soluble in carbon disulfide. Sulfur is very reactive; it reacts with all metals except gold and platnium‚ forming sulfides. It also forms compounds with various non-metallic elements. Sulfur forms over 30 solid allotropes. Sulfur is a chalogen (group 16 of the periodic table) and a non metal. Sulfur’s atomic weight is 32.06. It has 16 electrons‚ protons

Discussion: For this experiment to occur‚ the limiting and the excess reagents needed to be determined. The limiting reagent was picked based upon the single displacement that was going to occur when the two substances‚ iron and copper(II)sulfate‚ were mixed together in water. Seeing that iron was going to displace copper and take its place‚ it was chosen to be the limiting reagent with the condition that if it was in excess then after the displacement was completed‚ there will be iron precipitate

The first lab we did was overall fascinating. Each station had something different to offer and revealed results that I would not have guessed. The exercise that profoundly stuck out to me the most was the “water tank‚” lab. The procedure of the lab was to shoot a red laser beam into the tank of water from three different directions. I first shot the laser from above the water surface‚ then from below‚ and finally from the side of the tank. Interestingly enough‚ each direction‚ the laser would bend

RELEVANT AND IRRELEVANT INFORMATION 1. It is easy to understand why Mrs. Smith is always so busy between 5:45 and 7:45 in the evening. At about 5:45 she has to start cooking because Mr. Smith gets home from work at 6:30 and wants his dinner soon after he arrives. At the same time she has to keep an eye on her two sons to see that they do their homework. At 6:15 it is time for the baby to be fed‚ bathed‚ and then put to bed. The two boys have to be ready for bed at about 7:15‚ and if Mrs. Smith does

INTRODUCTION Iodine deficiency disorders are still very much prevalent in the world today. Two billion people‚ estimated by the WHO‚ still lack a sufficient level of iodine in their diets which leads to a range of disorders known as iodine deficiency disorders (IDD). So what is iodine? Iodine is an essential micronutrient in the diet which is used by the thyroid gland (located in the throat) to produce thyroid hormones which help control the body’s metabolism. The two most important thyroid

Discussion: We have made four set-ups in two different specimens. Onion and Boat of Moses skin with water‚ 2%‚ 5% and 10% salt (NaCl) Solution. Based on our experiment‚ the result of the set up explains that the presence of the salt solution results in outward diffusion of water and the collapse of the protoplast. In table 1‚ we have observed under the microscope that the onionskin mounted with water has no results of plasmolyzed cell (0%). This time‚ we have repeated the procedure with 2% salt
