Test Tube M L
1,232 wordsLab Report 1: Separation of Proteins Abstract/Summary: "Proteins account for more than 50 % of the dry weight of most cells, and they are instrumental in almost everything organisms do" (Campbell, 1999). The significance of proteins to the continuation of our biological systems is undeniable, and a study of how to quantify proteins seems an appropriate introduction to our studies of biology. In order to study proteins we must first know how to separate then quantify the amount using basic princi...

Ph Of 5 Sulphur Dioxide
1,087 wordsAcidity is measured using a pH scale, with the number 7 being neutral. A substance with a pH value of less than 7 is acidic, while one of a value greater than 7 is basic. A substance with a pH of 6 is 10 times more acidic than another with a pH of 7. Usually the pH of 5. 6 has been used as the baseline in identifying acid rain, although there has been much debate over the acceptance of this value. Interestingly enough, a pH of 5. 6 is the pH value of carbon dioxide in equilibrium with distilled ...

Nitric Acid Scientific American
825 wordsChemistry Connections of nitrogen - saltpeter, nitric acid, ammonia - were known long before invention of nitrogen in a free condition. In 1772 D. Rutherford, burning phosphorus and other substances in a glass bell, has shown that the gas remaining after combustion does not support breath and burning. He named it suffocating air. In 1787 A. Lavoisier has established, that the "vital" and "suffocating" gases included in air, are simple substances, and has offered the name "nitrogen." In 1784 G. C...

Life On Earth B And C
1,459 wordsCarbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and slightly acid-tasting gas. Sometimes referred to as a carbonic acid gas, the molecule consists of one atom of carbon joined to two atoms of oxygen. It occurs naturally in the atmospheres of many planets, including that of earth. Carbon dioxide is uniformly distributed over the earths surface at a concentration of about 0. 033 %, or 330 parts per million. It was called fixed air by the Scottish chemist and physician Joseph Black in the 1750 ...

Uv Light Respiratory System
1,069 wordsPrint Carbon CARBON process, The Print fading was a common occurrence in the earliest days of photography, and several people sought to address themselves to this problem. In the mid 1850 s some began to experiment with carbon, and in 1864 Joseph Wilson Swan perfected the process, which he also patented. Prints made using this process came in any colour, and were permanent. The sensitizing solution consisted of a mixture of carbon, gelatin, the colouring material, and potassium bichromate. Once ...

Elements Are Required Synthetic Fertilizers Fertilizer
247 wordsFertilizer is a substance added to soil to help plants grow. Fertilizer is divided into two groups: natural and synthetic. Fertilizer provides one or more of the chemical elements essential for plant nutrition. Natural fertilizers are items like animal excrement, straw, other plant materials, guano, animal tankage and meat and bone meals, and bone meals and flours. All natural fertilizers are from nature. Synthetic fertilizers come in either liquid or solid. They are usually classified into 10 g...

Plant Growth Harmful Effects
2,117 wordsMany questions have Fertilizers Fertilizers Many questions have been raised concerning the use of fertilizers, why plants require them, and about the benefits they bring. Fertilizers have a significant effect on humanity, as they form the basis of food production. The addition of fertilizers assists enrichment of soil fertility and corrects nutrient deficiencies so that plants can grow more healthily, provide crops and food for people, and increase food production. In this way, fertilizers are s...

H 2 O Mass Spectrometer
531 wordsAMass Spectrometer Mass Spectrometer A mass spectrometer produces charged particles (ions) from the chemical substances that are to be analyzed. The mass spectrometer then uses electric and magnetic fields to measure the mass (weight) of the charged particles. There are many different kinds of mass spectrometers, but all use magnetic and / or electric fields to exert forces on the charged particles produced from the chemicals to be analyzed. A basic mass spectrometer consists of three parts: 1. ...
