Three well packaged branded Kachchi ghani mustard oil bottles from the local store and were kept at the room temperature for testing.
4.3 METHODS AND MATERIALS
1) Moisture and volatile content
Aim: Determination of Moisture content of the mustard oil.
Apparatus: Moisture dish: made of aluminium sheet, Dessicator, Hot air oven
Procedure:
1. Dry and cool the moisture dish in the dessicator and then weigh it.
2. Weigh accurately about 10 g of the oil sample into the dish.
3. Place the dish in the air oven for one hour at 105 + 1 degree Celsius.
4. Remove the dish from the oven, cool it in the dessicator to room temperature and then weigh it.
5. Repeat this procedure until the difference between the two successive weighings does not exceed 1 mg.
Calculation:
Moisture and volatile matter content, = 100 w (Percent by weight) W

Where, w = loss of weight in g of the sample upon drying. W = weight in g of the sample taken for the test.

2) Pungency test Aim: Determination of allyl iso-thiocyanate i.e. Natural essential oil (Pungency Test)
Theory: The oil obtained from black mustard seeds contains sinigrin and myrosin which, after maceration with water yields a volatile oil, the major constituent of which is allyl iso-thiocyanate. The oil obtained from white mustard seeds contains acrinyl iso-thiocyanate which is much less volatile than allyl iso-thiocyanate. The presence of ally iso-thiocyanate is responsible for the pungent nature of

    Dona Maria’s original mole recipe combines chile peppers, sugar, sesame seeds, soybean oil, crackers, peanuts, salt, cocoa and other flavors into the popular pre-made mole sauce. A popular dish made using the spicy chocolate sauce is a simple chicken mole, as outlined on Herdeztraditions.com. To make chicken mole, combine 1 teaspoon ground cumin and salt with one-half teaspoon of garlic powder and white pepper in a bowl. Coat eight chicken thighs with the spices and cook in oil using a deep skillet until brown.

    The lab started off by measuring critical materials for the lab: the mass of an an empty 100 mL beaker, mass of beaker and copper chloride together(52.30 g), and the mass of three iron nails(2.73 g). The goal of this experiment is to determine the number of moles of copper and iron that would be produced in the reaction of iron and copper(II) chloride, the ratio of moles of iron to moles of copper, and the percent yield of copper produced. 2.00 grams of copper(II) chloride was added in the beaker to mix with 15 mL of distilled water. Then, three dry nails are placed in the copper(II) chloride solution for approximately 25 minutes. The three nails have to be scraped clean by sandpaper to make the surface of the nail shiny; if the nails are not clean, then some unknown substances might accidentally mix into the reaction and cause variations of the result.

    ST Report In the experiment, the problem was the contaminants that were affecting the quality of the water samples. To fix this issue, three scientists had to determine the contaminants that were present in the samples. One sample was from the school sink and the second sample was from an unknown source. The scientists conducted many tests to figure out what pollutants were present in the water.

    The items that were massed were the evaporating dish, watch glass, and NaCO3. The materials were massed once before and once after being heated in the drying oven. The mass of the evaporating Dish before was 46.57 g; while after being heating was 60.15 g. The mass of the watch glass before was 57.97 g and after was 48.75g. There were two masses taken for the substance NaHCO3- one with the evaporating dish and one without, subtracted out after the lab was concluded. The mass of the substance with the dish was 48.79 g before and 62.33 g after; meanwhile, the mass of the substance without the dish was 2.22 g before and 2.18 g after. The mass of the NaHCO3 had changed after the reaction occurred along with after it was placed on the hot plate and being in the drying oven.

    We zeroed out the scale and weighed all four potato cores at once and recorded the mass. We then put those potato cores into the beaker of 75 mL of solution. With the potato cores in the beaker we then put a watch glass over the top of the beaker to minimize the amount of solution that evaporates. We let the potato cores sit in the solution overnight. The next day we then emptied the beaker of the solution by carefully draining the solution, while not letting the potato cores fall out.

    INTRODUCTION A gas chromatograph (GC) can be utilized to analyze the contents of a sample quantitatively or in certain circumstances also qualitatively. In the case of preparative chromatography, a pure compound can be extracted from a mixture. The principle of gas chromatography can be explained as following: A micro syringe is used to inject a known volume of vaporous or liquid analyte into the head or entrance of a column whereby a stream of an inert gas acts a carrier (mobile phase). The column acts as a separator of individual or chemically similar components.

    Abstract The unknown concentration of benzoic acid used when titrated with standardized 0.1031M NaOH and the solubility was calculated at two different temperatures (20◦C and 30◦C). With the aid of the Van’t Hoff equation, the enthalpy of solution of benzoic acid at those temperatures was determined as 10.82 KJ. This compares well with the value of 10.27KJ found in the literature.
