The small sample fell apart after the roasting process, making it hard to separate from the charcoal. Also, I think allowing more time to let all the copper(II) oxide be smelted would have increased the accuracy of our results.

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

My unknown organism #6 is Morganella morganii, which is a gram-negative bacillus rods commonly found in the environment and also in the intestinal tracts of humans, mammals, and reptiles as a normal flora. (3, 5) This bacterium Morganella morganii, was first discovered in the 1906 by a British bacteriologist named H. de R. Morgan. (2) Despite its wide distribution, it is an uncommon cause of community-acquired infection and is most often encountered inpostoperative and other nosocomial settings. (2, 3) Morganella morganii infections respond well to appropriate antibiotic therapy; however, its

The human sense of touch is known as the somatic or somatosensory system. The skin is the biggest and most complex organ in the somatosensory system.The somatosensory system permits the human body to experience pressure, texture, temperature, and pain, and to see the position and development of the body's muscles and joints.The receptor cells in the skin can be separated into three useful classifications: mechanoreceptors that sense pressure and surface, thermoreceptors that sense temperature, and nociceptors that sense pain. Thermoreceptors distinguish changes in temperature utilizing two sorts of receptor cells: warm and cold. Thus, thermoreceptors on the skin detects the temperature signal using two specific receptors cell: warm and cold.

The outer membrane in the cyanobacterium cell (Phormidium uncinatum) is the structure that makes the cell gram negative. On the other hand, the characteristic that makes the cell gram positive is the thick peptidoglycan layer.

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).

Ionic compounds are soluble in water to a certain point depending on the compound. The level of solubility changes among different compounds. Some ionic compounds can completely dissolve in water and appear to be a homogeneous mixture. Although, some ionic compounds dissolve very little, and could be considered insoluble, since it does not dissolve fully. Depending on the compound, the level of solubility can be high or low. However, ionic compounds could dissolve to a certain degree. If the solution appears to be a heterogeneous mixture, many may assume through visual representation that it may be insoluble. As stated previously, the smallest amount of solubility should be considered. To confirm whether or not the substance is soluble, observe the efficiency when conducting electricity. Due to practical reasons, the slightest solubility could be considered insoluble by people.

Bacteria are ubiquitous; they can be found on the skin, in the soil, and inside the body. Because of the very nature of this ubiquity, it is important to be able to determine between different strains of bacteria. An example of this is determining the causative agent for a disease so that the patient will be treated with the appropriate antibiotics. It may be important to determine the bacteria in a certain region, because like with enteric bacteria, it is normal to find them in the digestive tract as they are in a symbiotic relationship with our bodies in this area; however, they also cause opportunistic infections in places outside of the digestive tract to our detriment, such as with a urinary tract infection. Some strains of bacteria are common to nosocomial infections, and identifying these bacteria as such helps create the guidelines for healthcare workers in antiseptic technique. All of the morphology and characteristics of each strain of bacteria help us to better understand the role of bacteria in the body as well as helps us understand how they can cause illness, and what treatment regimen to set in place. In lab this semester, a sample of unknown

If Na undergoes a chemical reaction with Cl, and if K undergoes a chemical reaction with I, what can you say about all the elements that belong to these 2 different families (families from questions 3 and 4)?

The $TM$ is composed of three different layers, namely the uveal meshwork, the corneoscleral meshwork and the juxtacanalicular meshwork ($JCT$). As intercelular areas are considerable, the uveal meshwork does not present much resistance to $AH$ outflow. The second layer presents lamellae covered by endothelium-like cells, their intracellular spaces are narrovwer and thus, increase the flow resistance. The juxtacanalicular meshwork is an irregular tissue and is the major cause of resistance to flow. It lies directly the inner wall of endothelial cells from the $SC$ \cite{llobet2003understanding}.

Begining by labeling 7 different 2.0 ml tubes 0 thru 6 for each compound. Then add 1ml of extract to tube 0. Then add 0.5 ml of DMSO to tubes 1 thru 6. Now make a 1:2 serial dilution from 0(pure extract) to 6(1:16)

b) Iron and Barium were present in unknown 3. Assigned unknown reacted with all 4 reactants and formed precipitate with 3 of them (Sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide and Sulfuric acid). During the experiment it reacted very similarly to Iron (III) nitrate and Barium nitrate. For example, with it was tested against Ammonium Chloride, the color of the solution changed to a light green, very identically to Iron (III) nitrate and Ammonium Chloride. Besides, unknown 3 formed an orange brownish precipitate when it was tested with sodium carbonate. Iron (III) nitrate acted similarly. Moreover, unknown 3 reacted similar to Barium nitrate when it was tested against ammonium chloride and sulfuric acid. It did not form any precipitate with ammonium chloride but formed a very light white precipitate, which is identical to barium nitrate’s reaction against sulfuric acid. Therefore, the two present metal in unknown 3 are Iron and barium.

Triple Sugar Iron Agar test, there was a gas production seen in the media. The media was yellow slant and yellow butt indicating glucose, lactose and/or sucrose fermentation with acid accumulation in slant and butt. For sulfur reduction, it was negative since it did not turn black in color indicating no sulfur was reduced.

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.

An unknown was given to our group from the professor. The unknown was in nutrient broth, the group received unknown number 3. And the task was to identify the unknown and try to make an educated guess, and identify the unknown #3.
