proteins and starches is to determine which substance contains either protein or starch. Hypothesis Proteins: I predict that any substance I test that derives from a living organism is will test positive proteins. Any substance that isn’t from a living organism more than likely will test negative for proteins. Starches: I predict that any substance that contains any level of glucose will test positive for starch. Materials Physical: None Virtual: 1. Test Tube Rack 2. 4-5 Test Tubes 3.

solution by a redox titration using iodine. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble‚ essential oxidant that plays a vital role in the protection of the body from infections and disease it is acquired from primary fruits and vegetables. With the use of different materials as natural orange juice‚ Tampico (chemical orange juice) and other solutions that contain vitamin C we will find the amount of vitamin C in each of these concentrations with the help of iodine‚ and with that data we can compare

In the lab‚ three experiments were completed: the Iodine experiment‚ Benedict’s experiment and the Biuret experiment to test for starch and glycogen‚ reducing sugars and protein in the respective order. 12 solutions were given where 11 were known and the 12th was an unknown. The solutions that were supplied can be found in the results and observations section of this report. When completing such experiments‚ there are always controls used to make sure the procedure is followed and that no cross

that involves the chloroplasts to synthesize glucose molecules from carbon dioxide and water. Energy (ATP)‚ initially in the form of glucose (monosaccharide) is later formed by condensation reaction into starch (polysaccharide). These alpha-glucose units are attached together by glycosidic bonds. Starch is formed after the Calvin Cycle in the Stroma. Carbon dioxide is present in the air and the water is gained from precipitation or morning dew. The water is broken down in photosystem I (sourcing invisible

joined together by a covalent glycosidic bond to create more complex sugars such as disaccharides (2 monosaccharide’s)‚ oligosaccharides (between three to ten monosaccharide’s) and polysaccharides (consists of several monosaccharide’s). (Karp‚ 2010) Starch is the most common nutritional polysaccharide‚ which consists of two polymers: amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is unbranched whereas amylopectin is branched. Structural polysaccharides consist of cellulose‚ which is a major component of plant cell

to store energy. Starch is a huge molecule made up of hundreds of simple sugar molecules (such as glucose) connected to each other. Most foods are known to be combinations of macromolecules. METHODS The tests performed were iodine testing for starch‚ Benedict’s test for glucose‚ the grease spot test for lipids‚ and the CuSO4’s test for protein. The pH indicator’s detection is based upon observing a chemical change that takes place most often a change in color. The Starch test was used for

Iodine clock reaction This is the hydrogen peroxide/ potassium iodide ‘clock’ reaction. A solution of hydrogen peroxide is mixed with one containing potassium iodide‚ starch and sodium thiosulfate. After a few seconds the colourless mixture suddenly turns dark blue. This is one of a number of reactions loosely called the iodine clock. It can be used as an introduction to experiments on rates / kinetics. 63 Lesson organisation This demonstration can be used at secondary level as an introduction

titration. One of the best methods is the iodine-thiosulfate titration procedure. The iodide ion‚ I-‚ is easily oxidized by almost any oxidizing agent. In acid solution‚ hypochlorite ions oxidize iodide ions to form iodine‚ I2. The iodine that forms is then titrated with a standard solution of sodium thiosulfate. The analysis takes place in a series of steps: 1. Acidified iodide ion is added to hypochlorite ion solution and the iodide is oxidized to iodine. 2 H+(aq) + ClO-(aq)
