Synthesis of Tetraphenylcylopentadienone Post-Lab Report Purpose- This experiment illustrates the use of adol condensation for the synthesis of a five-membered carbocylic ring. It is also a good demonstration of the impact extended conjugation has on the absorption of visible light. The reactants are bright yellow in color while the products are a very deep purple color appearing almost black. Introduction- The synthesis of Tetraphanylcyclopentadienone was a further example of the adol

The main purpose of this lab was to prove the laws of Ohm and Kirchhoff. On another note‚ being able to take part in this lab taught my partner and I the fundamental skills of constructing series and parallel circuit and using a multimeter to calculate the current and voltage of a circuit. I believe that if we only have the

Separating Substances: Identifying Food Dyes with TLC Background The color of food is an integral part of our culture and enjoyment of life. Who would deny the mouth-watering appeal of a deep-pink strawberry ice cream on a hot summer’s day or a golden Thanksgiving turkey garnished with fresh green parsley? Even early civilizations such as the Romans recognized that people "eat with their eyes" as well as their palates. Saffron and other spices were often used to provide a rich yellow color

Unknown Lab Report Microbiology Unknown A Sonia Kabra November 26‚ 2014 Introduction There are numerous reasons for identifying unknown bacteria. Some of these organisms have distinct qualities that set them apart from one another‚ such as the exposure to certain environments. Through out the semester in the laboratory‚ we are able to encounter some of the few microorganisms that we as humans have come into contact with. With the knowledge gained from the sessions in the laboratory‚ we can now

Unknown Lab Report Dr. Nathan Cahoone Microbiology 204 December 9‚ 2010 Introduction There are many reasons for knowing the identity of microorganisms. The study and test was done by applying all of the methods that have been learned so far in the microbiology laboratory class for the identification of an unknown bacterium which I was using unknown #25. Results Unknown #25 had the following morphology on a streak plate: medium sized butyrous cream colored colony. Gram-staining was utilized

Photosynthesis Lab Report Purpose: To research the effect of different wavelengths (colors) of light on plant growth during photosynthesis. Background Information: Photosynthesis is the process by which sunlight is captured by chloroplasts within plant cells and turned into energy. This energy is used to help the plant grow roots‚ leaves‚ flowers and fruit. Energy is required by living things

Purpose The purpose of the “Beanium” lab was to determine the average atomic mass of three different isotopes of beanium. During the lab beans were counted to determine mass of the sum of the beans. Each type of bean were weighed separately and then averaged together to determine the average atomic mass of beanium. Materials and Hazards Analytical balance‚ coffee filter‚ pencil‚ paper‚ cup‚ American beans‚ Nigerian beans‚ Mexican beans‚ calculator‚ and paper. Raw Data Bean Total Mass w/ Cup Number

turn off the primary production. Darkness has no effect on respiration. This is because cellular respiration is actually the reverse process of photosynthesis. Oxygen is a necessity of life requirements for basically all living organisms.* In this lab we are testing how different levels of salinity in the water indirectly affects the gross primary productivity in aquatic plants. To measure this you would use the light and dark bottle method. Only respiration (R) can occur in the bottle stored in
