The purpose of this lab was to explore the properties of an unknown compound. An unknown was given and a cation flame test and anion test was performed to determine the identity of the compound. Once the identity was determined‚ the properties were explored. Experimental To determine the cation of the compound‚ a cation flame test was performed. A bunsen burner was lit until a medium blue flame was burning. The given unknown was scooped onto a nichrome wire loop. The wire was held in the flame to

Lab # 11 – Acid - Base Titration Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to determine the molarity (M) of an unknown HCl solution. A NaOH solution will be made and its molarity calculated. A sample of the NaOH solution will be titrated against the unknown HCl solution to calculated the volume needed to neutralize it. With these volumes the unknown molarity can be calculated. Theory: Solutions are made up of solvents and solutes. Materials known as acids when dissolved

The English-born American writer Wystan Hugh Auden was one of the most important poets of the 20th century. Educated at Oxford‚ he attracted attention as a prominent member of a group of young leftist writers who generally expressed a socialist viewpoint. The poem I have chosen for this essay is "The Unknown Citizen". I felt the time period reflected W.H. Auden’s views‚ making the unknown citizen an example of the government’s view of the perfect modern man in an overrated unrealistic society.<br><br>In

French Fries vs Bacteria Introduction After the Chipotle scandal of having E. Coli‚ I wondered what other bacteria can possibly be on foods that we consume. In addition‚ eating my french fries the day after I bought it‚ I wondered how long it could be until there was bacteria growing on the french fries. These two experiences in the last few months triggered me to become interested in what bacteria is and how harmful it can be. In order to do this investigation‚ one must study various types of french

LAB 5: Coliform bacteria in surface waters I. Introduction Many organisms‚ including humans‚ have symbiotic bacteria in their guts that aid digestion. Symbiosis is an intimate relationship between different organisms in which both the host organism‚ e.g. the human‚ and the symbiote‚ e.g. bacteria‚ benefit from each other. In this case‚ the bacterium gets a favorable environment and food source in the intestines of a human. In return‚ these bacteria improve the digestibility of food through
