This lab report is not perfect‚ but can serve as a guide in understanding how to write one! Introduction Insulin‚ an amino-acid based protein‚ helps make up a larger polypeptide chain‚ proinsulin‚ which is located within the beta cells of the pancreas. Enzymes release the insulin from the larger proinsulin chain just before it is secreted from the beta cells. Insulin’s main function is to lower blood glucose levels by speeding up the membrane transport of glucose from the blood and into

The purpose of this lab experiment was to take the reagents of magnesium and Bromobenzene to create the Grignard reagent of phenylmagnesium before its converted to the final product of triphenylmethanol. Then the product was purified via methods such as recrystallization and filtration‚ before it was finally characterized via a series of methods such as TLC‚ melting point‚ IR‚ H NMR‚ and C NMR. Before the lab even began‚ the first thing done to ensure a safe successful reaction was to oven dry all

Introduction Chemical Kinetics‚ described as the study of rate of chemical processes‚ varies on many factors to determine the time needed for a reaction to complete. The rate of reaction of a chemical reaction is important‚ as reactions are of little use if the time period needed for the reaction to occur is too lengthy. Many factors influence the rate of a chemical reaction‚ such as temperature‚ concentration and surface area. The order of the reaction is based on the concentration of the reactants

Determining the Mole Ratios in a Chemical Reaction Introduction The purpose of this lab was to determine the mole ratios of the reactants hypochlorite ion (OCI ) and thiosulfate (S O ) when reacted in a chemical reaction. A chemical equation gives the mole ratios of the reactants and products involved in the chemical reaction. When some formulas of the products are not known‚ experimental measurements can be made to determine those ratios. During this reaction‚ hypochlorite ions oxidize the

THE CLASSIFICATION OF CHEMICAL REACTIONS Danny Bhatt SCH3U0-G Mr. Gandhi Wednesday‚ April 1st‚ 2014 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this lab is to determine the different types of chemical reactions and differentiate between them based on similar characteristics of each set category. In this lab it is hypothesized that every chemical reaction which was observed would fall under already set categories (that are: synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single displacement‚ double displacement‚ combustion and

Bags of Reactions * Problem/Purpose * Background Information: The Law of Conservation of Mass was created by Antoine Lavoisier in the 18th century. This law stated that mass could matter could neither be created nor destroyed. During a reaction the bonds of the reactants are broken and form new substances. As stated in the Law of Conservation‚ matter can neither be created nor destroyed; because of this the products should have the same number and type of atoms as seen in the reactants

Lab Report An enzyme is a protein that speeds up the rates of chemical reactions. They recognize‚ bind‚ and change specific reactants. They do not change so they can catalyze the same reaction again and again. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed in order to begin a chemical reaction. A Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change. Catalysts are substances or a substance that configures another substance
