Lab 4: Photosynthesis and Chromatography of Spinach Leaves Discussion: The chromatography of the spinach leaves was taken to establish what pigments were present in the chloroplasts of the leaves. The solvent carried and separated the different pigments up the cellulose paper. The solvent moved up the paper because of capillary action because of adhesion of the solvent molecules and the paper. The pigments dissolved in the solvent also were carried up the paper and were separated because

Date of Experiment: September 10th‚ 2013 Organic Chemistry II – CHLB330 Name: Symone E. MoxeyLab Partner: Lynden Cooper Synthesis of Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid) Abstract:- Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) is produced experimentally in the lab. The resulting percentage yield is 65.5%. The purity of the obtained product is tested using the melting point and Ferric Chloride Test (FCT). The aspirin was massed‚ and the melting point was determined. Based on the data collected‚ there was a total

Introduction: The importance of this lab is to get a deeper understanding of how the concepts of solutions and insolubility applies to the lab’s purpose of making chalk using precipitation reactions. A precipitation reaction is when a solid/ precipitate (insoluble) is formed when two solutions that contain soluble salts are combined. Some additional scientific concepts investigated in this lab are insolubility‚ double replacement‚ and limiting reactants. Insolubility occurs when a solute is incapable

In this TLC lab‚ we explored the relative polarities of Acetylsalicylic Acid‚ Ibuprofen‚ Acetaminophen‚ and Caffeine based on their functional groups. The most overall polar analgesic is considered to be the analgesic that contained the most polar function groups. The amine and amide functional groups are the most polar. In this experiment‚ we found that both these functional groups are found in Caffeine. As a result‚ Caffeine was the most polar out of Acetylsalicylic Acid‚ Ibuprofen‚ Acetaminophen

ASTR 101 Size of the Solar System Name _______ Section __ Overview · Become familiar with the scale of the planets vs. their distances. · Get an overview of the solar system. · 50 points are possible Introduction It is easy to flip to the index of an astronomy textbook to discover that‚ say‚ the Sun lies 150 million kilometers away from Earth. It is far more difficult (if not impossible)‚ however‚ to picture this distance in our mind. In this exercise

Lab 2: Equipotential Lines and Lines Of Force Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to find the electric current when passing through conductors of different shapes and sizes. Also to gain a general knowledge of the laws governing the flow of current through extended conductors is another objective for this experiment. In this lab we are to experiment with the lines of force and equipotentials. We are also to find out vector field and the relationship between the lines of force and the electric field

Abstract: For the first part of this lab we refluxed different Carboxylic acids and alcohols in the presence of a acid catalyst in order to form Esters by Fischer Esterification. These Esters had different pleasant smells that we then evaluated. In the second part of the experiment‚ we broke the ester bonds of a triglyceride in order to form glycerol and carboxylate salts. This process is known as Saponification because it produces amphiphilic molecules that allow soap to remove dirt from the surface

Iker Lopez Anatomy & Physiology P2 Wednesday‚ September 19‚ 2012 Heart Rate Response to Baroreceptor Feedback Lab Fundamental Question: Does the body respond to its environment? Testable Question: When the body is in the squat position to normal while the time limit stays the same and how far you squat is the same‚ will the heart rate recover after returning to standing position in 10 seconds? Hypothesis: If the body moves back to normal position from squatting position while the time limit

Lab 2 Sara Rodriguez Period 2 Purpose: What is the more accurate way to measure volume‚ by using displacement or by using a ruler? Hypothesis: If the method of displacement is used ‚ then the results will be more accurate than measuring the volume using a ruler. Materials: -250 mL graduated cylinder -Triple beam balance -A weigh boat -Ruler -Samples Procedure: 1. Gather materials such as ‚ samples‚ weigh boat‚ triple beam balance ‚ graduated cylinder‚ ruler and water. 2. Take the materials
