The first step of the creation of verdigris was preformed using the following reaction (1):
4CuSO4*5H2O(aq) + 6NH3(aq) CuSO4*3Cu(OH)2(s) + 3(NH4)2SO4(aq) + 14H2O(l)
Based on this chemical equation, four moles of hydrated copper sulfate reacted with six moles of ammonia to produce a precipitate of copper sulfate tribasic along with aqueous ammonium sulfate and liquid water. It was known that a chemical reaction was occurring when the ammonia was being added via the color change from light blue to dark blue. The precipitate formed from this solution was acquired via vacuum filtration, which involved the solution being separated from the precipitate via air pressure flowing out of the flask. The air pressure flowing out of the flask was caused by a faucet that was running water which was attached to a tube that was attached to the collection flask. …show more content…

It was known that a chemical reaction underwent when copper sulfide tribasic was mixed with aqueous sodium hydroxide when the new observed precipitate of copper hydroxide was formed.
This precipitate of copper hydroxide was then required for the final step of verdigris synthesis that is represented by the following equation

    Name: Avishak Deb Roy Partners: Leevell Penn, Varugh, Butler Bio 101 Lab Report #1 02.22.2018 Swimming speed of paramecium tetraurelia in different levels of treatment. Introduction Paramecia is a unicellular Protista which are naturally found in aquatic habitats. It is easily cultured in the laboratory. It is oblong shaped and covered with short hairy structure called cilia. Paramecia does not pose any health or ethical concerns and the population can be maintained if there is a food source such as Enterobacter (Biological Foundation 7).

    After a while, a brownish color substance started to form on the three iron nails. We predicted that the brown substance on the nails is copper because the reaction of copper(II) chloride with iron is a single displacement reaction, so copper would be produced. 0.48 grams of iron was used in the reaction because 2.73 grams subtracted by 2.25 grams is 0.48 grams. The 0.48 grams of iron had to be used in the reaction with copper(II) chloride in order to produce copper, according to the reaction equation: CuCl2+FeFeCl2+Cu. 0.52 grams of copper was produced after pouring out the copper(II) chloride solution and the three iron

    The heating of the solution caused the reaction to start which decomposed Cu(OH)2 and made the solution colorless and darkened the precipitate. The fourth step was the formation of CuSO4. After the solution was decanted from the precipitate and washed with near boiling water, 6 M H2SO4 was added to the beaker containing Copper (II) Oxide and this caused the precipitate to dissolve and the liquid become clear blue. The last step was the formation of Cu(s). This step recovered Solid elemental copper.

    Purpose: To recognize the evidence of a chemical change and to prove the law of conservation of mass by observing a series of chemical reactions involving copper. A specific quantity of copper will be transformed through a series of chemical reactions to form new substances and then recovered as solid copper. A percent yield will be calculated to determine the amount of copper recovered from the chemical reactions.

    An experiment was conducted in order to determine the oxygen consumption in dry and soaked peas within two different temperatures of water. Cellular respiration is the release of energy by metabolic chemical oxidation in the mitochondria, (DeStefano 2016). The hypothesis was the germinating warm water peas would have the highest rate of oxygen consumption. Within this experiment, a twenty-one degree celsius bath and a six degree celsius bath were set up. Then, a one hundred mL graduated cylinder was filled with fifty mL of water.

    The purpose of this lab was to test the effect of pollution on algae growth. Through a series of experiments that lasted a month, four of the six hypotheses were proven to be correct or partially correct. The first hypothesis stated that if 0.5 mL of salt was added to algae, then the algae would grow slower than the positive control. This was proven correct, as shown by the difference of the data from the positive control and the container with 0.5 mL of salt in it.

    3. GROWTH AND CELL DIVISION OF PHYTOPLANKTON Phytoplanktons have diversity and are of both the types prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Cell division is the vital process for regeneration. Prokaryotic forms of phytoplankton which comes under domain bacteria divide by basic process of cell division like binary fission. Eukaryotic phytolanktons which comes under domain eukarya are divide by the process of mitosis.

    Compton scattering is the result of an incident photon with a high energy collides with a loosely bound outer shell electron. The outer shell electron is knocked out of the outer shell and this causes the initial photon to lose some of its energy. This results in a recoil electron and a scattered photon. When the collision happens the scattered photon changes direction and the recoil electron (Compton Electron) is the electron that was once on the outer shell is sent on its own path. The scattered photon’s energy can be calculated by subtracting the recoiled electron from the initial photon’s energy.

    Fermentation is breaking down glucose without any oxygen. But there is a more detailed and complete way of breaking down glucose and that is called cellular respiration. Aerobic respiration is when oxygen is used as the reactant, but an organic fuel is also used. Cellular respiration can have not anaerobic and aerobic processes. When one substance moves electrons completely to a whole different electron is called a redox reaction.

    Luminol is a chemical that forensic scientists use to find traces of blood at crime scenes. Before application, a crime scene investigator will assemble the solution by combining luminol, sodium hydroxide, and hydrogen peroxide. The sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide are what initially sets off the chemical reaction with the luminol. Then the investigator sprays it over the crime scene. If there is any blood present, the iron in it will act as a catalyst in the chemical reaction.

    Seed type and cellular respiration All cells perform cellular respiration to maintain homeostasis and growth. Plants can produce sugar from suns energy, when they need energy they metabolize stored sugars through cell respiration. Plants need the energy to perform different task such as transportation or growth. Similarly to human cell respiration, cellular respiration rate in plants isn’t always consistent and depends on many other factors. After a seed is dropped from plant it goes into a resting period (dormacy) where the stored energy is released very slowly.

I think my science project is interesting because chemistry happens in the world around you every day, not just in a lab. I think what you would learn can keep you self and prevent you from playing around mixing thing that could hurt you. You can’t mix all liquids and solids together because it could be harmful. Some liquid can cause a chemical reaction when mixing solids.
