They are both very soluble in alcohol and hexane so that doesn’t help, but in water ethyl ether is semi soluble and pentane is in soluble. This would make us lean toward pentane but we felt strongly that ethyl ether because of the density was a much better test because there is much less human error and the we asked about how do you decide if something is insoluble
By looking at the spread sheet it conveyed that all 3 bacterials were negative for the oxidase test. So, I assumed that if the oxidase test performed came back negative as well, this would verify that I chose wisely. The oxidase test would also detect if the bacteria produced cytochrome oxidase, it is also used to segregate between aerobic gram-negative organisms. The last experiment set up on this day was the fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM) so that I could verify if my unknown bacteria was a aerobic or anaerobic
The reason why we're determining if their was a chemical reaction is to identify if it is exothermic or endothermic. How exactly we do is that ionic compounds dissolve in water ,or HCl, to break down the ionic bonds. With these ions it attaches to the water molecules and
Healthcare applications of Chemical reactions Discussion 1 * What is the difference between biochemical, pharmaceutical, and diagnostic chemical reactions in healthcare? The basic aims of health profession are to get the understanding and maintenance of health and understanding and effective treatment of diseases. Biochemistry greatly effects on both aspects. Biochemical studies clarified many aspects of health and disease, and conversely, the study of various aspects of health and disease has opened up new areas of biochemistry. Diagnostic chemical reactions are those used for medical testing purposes such as a glucose tolerance test.
It is important to correct the readings from the peas because the glass beads are used as a control in which no changes should occur in CO2 and oxygen levels due to their abiotic nature. 3. For both plants and animals, cellular respiration occurs not only during the daytime but also at night. However, cellular respiration cannot occur if there are not enough reactants to carry out the process. For example, because plants supply an abundant amount of oxygen to the atmosphere, it would be difficult for living cells in humans to respire if plants were ever to be demolished from Earth.
Use a new glucose strip and record Data: Conclusion: According to my data, pH levels do, in fact, affect the results of Lactex. I say this because in my experiment, pre-enzyme, my solutions were all negative except for the soda. I used the test strips to determine if they were negative or positive solutions. After I put in the enzyme, Lactex, my results changed. Vinegar, Antacid, and Soap all became positive solutions after I put in the enzyme.
Joel Barlow High School Honors Biology Michael Klein Wassink 11-5-2014 Lab: pH, Buffers & Biological Substances Problem How do organisms survive and function despite metabolic activities that tend to shift pH toward either acidic or basic ends of the scale. Hypothesis I predict that as I add varying amounts of 0.1m HCl and 0.1m NaOH to various biological substances the pH levels of those biological substances will go down with the addition of HCl and up with the addition of NaOH because Acids (HCl) release H+ into substances which makes their pH levels go down, and Bases (NaOH) accept H+ from substances which makes their pH levels go up. Materials • 4 goggles • 4 aprons • 50ml beaker • 1-100ml-grad cylinder • 3-colored pencils • Wide range pH paper • Tap water • Forceps • HCl (0.1M) • NaOH (0.1M) • pH 7 buffer solution • Milk • Potato homogenate • Egg white • Gelatin suspension Procedure 1. Pour 25ml of tap water into the 50ml beaker. 2.
Unknown Lab Report: Enterobacter cloacae Jessica Sainvil Professor Cupido Bio 253L1 Thu 9:30-12:30 Due Date: 12/6/12 Unknown#103 Introduction The bacterium Enterobacter cloacae isolated from the given #103 was a Gram-negative Rod. The purpose of this lab was to isolate and identify the genus and species of an unknown bacterium. It is important to identify an unknown microorganism because knowing how the bacteria work and how it is structured means knowing how it can affect humans. Unknown bacteria may also be used clinically many pharmaceutical drugs are based on products made by organisms (Katzung, B.G.2004). In order to identify the unknown organism a series of tests were performed.
ABSTRACT: The lab of “observations of chemical changes” was to observe the changes that occur in chemical reactions and attempt to interpret these changes. In these experiments it taught me how to interpret chemical reactions with acids and bases. Also, how one chemical can have many different reactions when combined with other chemicals and how to interpret each reaction as what it could mean. I discovered not only how to measure out a well-balanced chemical combination to receive a reaction but to know how to test for acids and bases using a few different methods. Other tests also included in this experiment were testing for Sodium Bicarbonate, and Starch.
Vegetable oil is hydrophobic and there for is not water soluble but alcohol on the other hand is completely soluble with vegetable oil. 3. We know from observing the vegetable oil and water together that the relative density of water is greater then the density of vegetable oil because the oil will always recede to the surface of water. 4. Emulsification agents allow for two unbendable liquids to be combined, the detergent hold properties that both substances can in return blend with leaving detergent dissolving in both the water as well as the alcohol unlike other substances we tried to
