Determination of an Equilibrium Constant Abstract: In this experiment‚ two reactions were run to determine the molar absorptivity and the equilibrium constant of FeSCN2+. The main principles used in this lab are equilibrium‚ LeChatlier’s Principle‚ Beer’s Law and Spectrocopy. The first reaction was run to completion using LeChatier’s Principle and the second reaction was run to equilibrium. A spectrophotometer was used to measure absorbances. Using a graph of absorbance versus concentration

Abstract Water “hardness” was analyzed in this experiment‚ through the determination of CaCO3 concentration. This was achieved by the titration of an unknown solution using a standardized 0.1M EDTA‚ and addition of Eriochrome Black T to the unknown‚ to indicate the endpoint of the titration. The average concentration of CaCO3 obtained was 1034 ppm‚ with a standard deviation of 2.4495. The results indicate that the unknown solution can be considered as hard water. Introduction The

Germ Line Control of female Sex Determination in Zebrafish In order to identify the sex of a developing embryo‚ many scientists have studied this process called sex determination that allows them to have better understandings on how sex is being determined in either vertebrates or invertebrates. Sex determination is normally determined genetically; however‚ other factors can contribute to its determination. There are numerous determinants that control sex determination‚ but the most important are sex

at hand‚ and the determination that whether we win or lose‚ we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.” Determination can be a characteristic used to describe someone based on their actions. Unlike other words that describe a person determination has a positive connotation attached to it. Every individual has a unique combination of characteristics that make up who that person is and what their work ethic or style is. The most common definition for determination is the unwillingness

Determination Determination can be a huge factor to success. Both determination and success are displayed in the Gifted Hands novel.Sonya Carson has persevered in the most difficult of situations‚ as have her sons. Her youngest son‚ Ben Carson‚ is one of the world’s leading neurosurgeons. He is also running for president. The other‚ Curtis Carson‚ is currently a great engineer. This family itself is a perfect example of what great determination can lead to. When Curtis Carson was in junior high

Boderra J. Wall IDST 2/13/13 Identity and Self-Determination We ask ourselves‚ who am I? We scratch our heads and think about the choices we make‚ the things we say‚ where we come from or what people may think of us. We simply take whatever we think of ourselves or what people think of us‚ and we are that person specific person. Some people are lost‚ because they don’t know who they are. They don’t know their purpose of why they are here

Emily Mayle English 12/101 December 7‚ 2012 Determination for the Ideal Figure The desire for the ideal figure starts from such a young age in people in today’s society. Young teens believe that in order to be happy‚ beautiful‚ and successful their body must be thin. The media puts an emphasis on the body figure most models have and the body that would be considered as ‘in.’ The value society has on this figure leads many teens to anorexia‚ bulimia‚ and depression. The emphasis and power the

The term distance determination corresponds with Forensic Gunshot Residue Distance Determination Testing. Distance determination is the process of determining the distance a firearm was shot from its intended target. The determination process requires the firearm to be test fired from various distances to compare gunshot residue (GSR) patterns made during the test and compared to the ones made on the target. Often times the request for distance determination occurs resulting in the death from a shooting

DETERMINATION OF FRUIT ACIDS BY TITRATION AND CALCULATION OF THE SUGAR/ACID RATIO It is the sugar/acid ratio which contributes towards giving many fruits their characteristic flavour and so is an indicator of commercial and organoleptic ripeness. At the beginning of the ripening process the sugar/acid ratio is low‚ because of low sugar content and high fruit acid content‚ this makes the fruit taste sour. During the ripening process the fruit acids are degraded‚ the sugar content increases and

Determination of Equilibrium Constants Introduction Bromothymol blue is an indicator for many acid-base titrations. When adding different solutions within the indicator it is to react and change colors‚ in this experiment the different colors were blue‚ green‚ and yellow. In the following experiment‚ obtaining the absorbance levels for each one makes it possible to calculate the equilibrium constant. Materials and Methods For this specific experiment there are a few materials that are crucial
