Biology 104 Reaction Times Objectives: 1. Formulate and test hypotheses regarding reaction times. Introduction: Reaction time is a measure of how quickly an organism can respond to a particular stimulus. Reaction time has been widely studied‚ as its practical implications may be of great consequence‚ e.g. a slower than normal reaction time while driving can have grave results. Many factors have been shown to affect reaction times‚ including age‚ gender‚ physical fitness‚ fatigue‚ distraction

The Displacement Reactions Purpose: to see how displacement reaction works with different chemicals and what chemical has more reactivity series then other Hypothesis: Iron + Copper Sulfate: Iron will displace copper because it is more reactive and it is going to end up as Iron Sulphide + Copper Copper + Silver Nitrate: Copper will displace Silver because it is more reactive and it is going to end up as Copper Nitride + Magnesium + Copper oxide: Magnesium will displace Copper because it

BIOL 140 Lab—The Chemical Composition of Cells Name ____________________________ I) Introduction All cells contain four major types of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ nucleic acids‚ and proteins. In today’s lab‚ we will be studying three of the four-proteins‚ carbohydrates and lipids. Various chemical tests can be used to detect the presence of each of these molecules. Most of the tests involve a color change visible to the eye. If a color change is observed‚ the test is considered positive

precipitation reaction is‚ describe ways which one can predict whether a precipitation reaction would form or not‚ describe the uses of precipitation reactions in everyday activities and industries BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Precipitation is the formation of a solid in a solution during a chemical reaction‚ such as evaporation. A substance that causes precipitation when it is added to a solution is called a precipitant. This can occur when an insoluble substance is formed in the solution due to a reaction or

Abstract “Reaction Time” is the interval of time between the application of a stimulus and the detection of a response and has been thought to differ based upon the effects of modality and warning signals. In the “Reaction Time” experiment a total of 24 students from the University of Cincinnati participated in an experiment consisting of two sensory modalities‚ audition and vision‚ which were combined with two levels of warning signal status. The two levels of warning signal status were signal

Objectives 1. To recognize the macroscopic properties of five chemical systems at equilibrium 2. To observe shifts in equilibrium concentrations as stresses are applied to the systems. 3. To observe a shift in equilibrium concentrations associated with changes in temperature. 4. To explain the observations obtained by applying Le Chatelier’s principle.

Coupled Reactions ABSTRACT A way to drive a non-spontaneous reaction forward is by coupling it with another reaction that is highly spontaneous‚ resulting to a spontaneous overall reaction. In this study‚ since the extraction of C(s) from CO2(s) is a non-spontaneous process‚ it was coupled with the oxide formation reaction of Mg‚ a reaction with high spontaneity‚ so that the process of the extraction of C(s) would proceed. The reactions and products which were a mix of black and white

REACTIONS OF HYDROCARBONS Diane Cate Satsatin Biology Student‚ Biology Department College of Science‚ De La Salle University-Dasmarinas ABSTRACT Five substances which are Hexane‚ Eugenol‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 1‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 2‚ and Acetylene gas was used for the selective reactivity of hydrocarbons to functional group tests; Bayer’s test‚ Bromine test light‚ Bromine test dark‚ and Tollen’s test. In Bayer’s test‚ only Acetylene‚ Eugenol and Unknown hydrocarbon 2 reacted positively

experiment‚ equilibrium will be examines in the reaction beteween the iron (III) ion and the thiocyanate ion: Fe3+ (aq) + SCN- (aq) ------ FeSCN2+ (aq) The FeSCN2+ complex ion has a blood red color while the iron and the thiocyanate ion are colorless. Therefore‚ the shift in the reaction can followed by noting a change in the intensity of the clood red color‚ which indicates a change in the concentration of the complex ion FeSCN2+. If the reaction shifts to the right‚ the blood red color will get

In light reactions‚ the goal is to transfer solar kinetic energy to chemical potential energy. This is first done by the absorption of a photon of light. Plant pigments are molecules that selectively absorb light energy at wavelengths. A pigment molecule absorbs a photon of light one of pigments electrons jumps to an energy level further than the nucleus. The electron has more potential energy here. The electron now has raised from the ground state to an excited state. Pigments of photosynthesis
