Lab Report Keeping It Liquid

The mole is a convenient unit for analyzing chemical reactions. Avogadro’s number is equal to the mole. The mass of a mole of any compound or element is the mass in grams that corresponds to the molecular formula, also known as the atomic mass. In this experiment, you will observe the reaction of iron nails with a solution of copper (II) chloride and determine the number of moles involved in the reaction. You will determine the number of moles of copper produced in the reaction of iron and copper (II) chloride, determine the number of moles of iron used up in the reaction of iron and copper (II) chloride, determine the ratio of moles of iron to moles of copper, and determine the number of atoms and formula units involved in

A buffer is a solution that resists changes in pH when H+, OH-, or H20 is added. By using standard lab equipment, a lab pro diagnostic tool, and acidic and basic solutions, the pH can be found. By recording the pH while adding a base or an acid gradually to a buffer solution you can find the capacity of each buffer to resist drastic changes in pH. The best buffers will keep a solution from becoming either too acidic or basic with the addition of a strong base or acid.

The purpose of this lab was to identify unknown bacteria cultures using various differential tests, and my unknown bacteria is #17. The identification of these unknown cultures was accomplished by separating and differentiating possible bacteria based on specific biochemical characteristics. Whether the tests performed identified specific enzymatic reactions or metabolic pathways, each was used in a way to help recognize those specifics and identify the unknown cultures. The differential tests used to identify the unknown cultures were Gram stain, Catalase, Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA), Blood Agar, Novobiocin, Coagulase, and DNAse (Alachi, 2007).

Table 2: Consists of color extract taken from a red cabbage for a natural indicator. The pH reading that was measured by using the pH meter and the result of the pH reading to determine whether the solution was acidic or basic.

a) Tap and drag over the area of the graph where the resting heart rate is displayed to select the data.

Someone hands you a container of a mysterious white mixture, and they give you the task to figure out what it is. What would you do to solve the problem at hand? Many scientists might find physical and chemical properties to figure it out. The scientists might look for, odor change, temperature change, fizzing, and bubbling for chemical properties. They also inspect the mixtures for physical properties before a chemical reaction occurs, including shape, size, color, texture, and smell. The Eighth grade thinks that the mystery mixture is C6H8O7(Citric Acid) and NaHCO3(Baking Soda).

2. (5 pts) List and explain the names and affiliations of the various characters/stakeholders in this story – I’m looking for us to use the story to map out the complexities that are generally associated with solving public health puzzles – the stakeholders you list and explain here should apply to many of the cases we consider going forward.

The experimental procedures for Lab 2 were provided on Blackboard labelled as “Pre-Lab 2: Techniques & Measurement”.

2. When 2.00 g of NaOH were dissolved in 49.0 g water in a calorimeter at 24.0 ˚C, the temperature of the

The cup got colder, was a endothermic reaction, which used up energy from the environment, sucked the heat out.

The hot/cold lab is an example of phase changes. With ice in water being slowly heated over a period of twenty five minutes, the three phases of matter were exhibited. The initial phase was a solid, the water used was ice. After being heated for around seven minutes, the solid ice had another phase change, it became a liquid, just water. At around twenty four minutes of being heated, the water finally boiled in order to change into a gas. The data we collected shows the increase in temperature as the phases changed. Antoine Lavoisier₁ was a French chemist who first wrote about these phase changes. He described the three different types of phases as “solid like stones...fluid like water...a third state which I shall call the state of expansion

These phases can go from one to another when affected by certain things, which is known as phase changes. To switch from a solid to a liquid, the solid must melt. On the other hand, to switch from a liquid to a solid, freezing must occur. Furthermore, to switch from a liquid to a gas, a process known as evaporation must take place. In contrast, to

An increase in internal energy is required to convert a solid to a liquid,. Conversely, a reduction in internal energy can cause liquids to freeze or solidify. When heat is added to a solid or a liquid, the temperature of the sample does not necessarily rise. During a phase change, heat is added to the sample without an increase in temperature. Heat absorbed or released as the result of a phase change is called latent heat. There is no temperature change during a phase change, thus there is no change in the kinetic energy of the particles in the material. Latent heat is an intensive

The overall purpose of the lab is to have the students practice designing an experiment, gathering data, and then analyzing that data to form a conclusion using the scientific method. It also served to understand key terms such as hypothesis, dependent variable, and independent variable. The specific objective of this lab is to determine whether certain human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth. Allometric growth defines when certain parts of an organism grow at unequal rates in comparison to its whole, while isometric growth is when all parts of an organism grow at the same rate in comparison to the entire organism. The specific purpose of the lab is to determine whether or not specific human body parts experience allometric or isometric growth by comparing the ratios of height to two specific body parts, in the students’ case the right hand length and head circumference, in students and newborns. The students formulated the tentative answer that if a team of four compared their height to right hand length ratio, as well as, their height to head circumference ratio, to those of a newborn’s, then the students will discover that the right hand and head experience allometric growth in humans.

1. Obtain a sample of the mixture. The mixture you will separate contains three components: NaCl, NH4Cl, and SiO2. Their separation will be accomplished by heating the mixture to sub-lime the NH4Cl, extracting the NaCl with water, and drying the remaining SiO2.
