1. OBJECTIVES (a) To determine the equivalent circuit parameters of a 3-phase squirrel-cage induction motor from laboratory test data. (b) To determine the performance characteristics of an induction motor under load conditions. (c) To control the no-load speed of an induction motor. 2. INTRODUCTION 2.1 Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors An induction motor is a transformer with a rotating secondary winding. It has two essential components: an outer stationary stator and an

synthesized from vegetable oil. Biodiesel is considered “green” and better for the environment because it is biodegradable. The heat of combustion was then determined using a bomb calorimeter. Introduction: Petroleum is the largest single source of energy consumed by the world’s population‚ exceeding coal‚ natural gas‚ nuclear‚ hydro‚ and renewables (3). It is predicted that global demand for petroleum will increase to 40% by 2025 (3). Biodiesel fuel is a renewable energy source made from vegetable

Isoamyl Acetate Synthesis through Fischer Reaction Lesaca‚ Anna*‚ Lopez‚ Maria Flor‚ Lu‚ Ricardo‚ Magdurulan‚ Tricia 2Biology6‚ Department of Biology‚ College of Science‚ UST‚ Manila annalesaca@yahoo.com Abstract Esters are a type of functional group that causes distinguishable flavors or odors of some fruits. It can be synthesized by Fischer reaction‚ which is an acid-catalyzed reaction of an alcohol and carboxylic acid. One of the esters known for its characteristic banana flavor is the isoamyl

Enzyme Lab Report Introduction The objective of this experiment was to determine if changes in pH or temperature affected the activity of enzymes‚ specifically the enzyme sucrase. Enzymes are protein molecules that act as biological catalysts to increase the speed of the reaction or to lower the activation energy of that reaction. However‚ the activity of an enzyme can be affected by physical factors such as pH and temperature because these factors alter the structure of the enzyme (Freeman‚ 2011)

Synthesis of Phenacetin from para-Acetamidophenol Aims: To determine how phenacetin from acetamidophenol (known as paracetamol) is synthesized using Sodium Ethoxide Iodine‚ which is the Williamson Ether synthesis. Experimental: Sodium metal was patted dry to remove any oil and was cat into small pieces. A dry 100cm3 round bottom flask was placed on a cork ring‚ on a balance and tarred sodium metal (0.6g) was placed into the flask. The flask was then attached to the dry reflux condenser

Purpose: To observe epithelial tissue by using a microscope to compare prepared slides. Introduction: Epithelial tissue covers the whole surface of the body. It is made up of cells closely packed and ranged in one or more layers. This tissue is specialized to form the covering or lining of all internal and external body surfaces. Epithelial tissue can be divided into two groups depending on the number of layers of which it is composes. Epithelial tissue which is only one cell thick is known as

Lab Report Procedure 6.1: Perform Benedict’s test for reducing sugars. Introduction: Benedict’s tests allows for the detection of the presence of reducing sugars. All monosaccharides are reducing sugars since all of them have active carbonyl group. Some disaccharides that are exposed to a carbonyl group are also reducing sugars but less reactive than monosaccharides. By mixing the sugar solution with Benedict’s solution and heating them‚ a redox reaction will occur. The copper (II) sulphate

pH scale because it exists in our small intestine and our small intestine uses acid to break down food. The result from the lab prove my hypothesis correct because lactase worked well at body temperature and it also worked well at pH of 4.5 to 5.5 mg/dl proving that lactase works best at an acidic pH number. The lab shows that the highest amount of glucose is made by temperatures close to body temperature. In our our lab‚ we found that at 35 °C 500 mg/dl glucose was produced‚ which was the highest
