After the water temperature began to stabilize, the highest constant temperature was recorded. This data was used to calculate the calorimeter constant. This enter procedure was repeated to calculate another calorimeter constant in order to find the average of both answers. After that value was calculated, a 600 mL beaker was filled with 300 mL of water and heated till it started boiling. An unknown metal located on the instructor's bench was obtained and the mass was calculated.
Fill beaker with water Use the disposable pipette to place water in the graduated cylinder until the unidentified object would be completely submerged in water Record what the measurement of water in milliliters before placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder Gently place the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder Record the measurement of the water in milliliters after placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder Subtract the measurement of water in milliliters before placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder from the measurement of the water in milliliters after placing the unidentified object into the graduated cylinder, this is the volume of the unidentified object Record the volume (the answer you got in step 10) of the unidentified object in the data table Weigh the unidentified object on the scale, this is the mass of the unidentified object Record that number in the data table Calculate the density of the object by dividing the mass by the volume and rounding it to the proper significant figure, Record the density of the unidentified object in the data table Repeat the lab 2 more times and with each experiment record the data in the chart under the correct trial number corresponding with the correct
Identification of bacteria within Unknown Culture #21 In this experiment, an unknown culture of two different types of bacteria was assigned to each person, a number of tests were performed to isolate and identify these bacterial cells. Based on knowledge from the previous experiments completed in lab, a basic understanding of each type of bacteria was used to create a flow chart that would aid the process of identifying the unknown bacteria within the culture. A gram stain that is performed initially will narrow down the types of tests certain bacteria will and will not respond to. In addition to the gram stain, some of the tests that were used include, a catalase test, an Eosin methylene blue (EMB) agar test, a bile esculin test, and a 6.5% sodium chloride (NaCl) test.
Characteristic Property- Test 2- Density Materials: Triple Beam balance, distilled water, graduated cylinder, unknown 6 Procedure: first we found the mass of the empty graduated cylinder and then its mass with the now distilled unknown. After subtracting the mass of the graduated cylinder, we were able to find the volume. For every 1mL=1cm³ so there we had the volume found with the graduated cylinder. We divided the mass by the volume in order to get the density Data: We found that the density of our unknown was 0.76 g/cm3.

Determining the Identity of an Unknown White Compound Maxwell Yurs Group Member: E.B. Floersch, Alexander Medina, and Masih Horri College Science and Engineering University of Minnesota, Minneapolis October 12, 2014 The experiments that were completed were used to determine the identity of an unknown white compound to allow for proper disposal. These experiments included flame tests, pH tests, and conductivity tests. After each was completed, it was found that the identity of the white compound was Sodium Nitrate.
Using the equation m = ΔTf/Kf , the molality of the unknown solution was found. Then, moles of unknown were calculated, which was used to calculate the average molar mass of unknown. Theory: After the experiment was completed, the data
Tn 4351 was originally isolated from bacteroides fragilis [30] . The transposon was successfully introduced into Cytophaga succinicans, Flavobacterium meningosepticum, Flexibacter canadiansis, Flexibacter strain SFI and Sporocytophaga myxococcoides by conjugation [25]. Tn 4351carries two antibiotic resistance gene. One of the codes for resistance to erythromycin and clindamycin which is expressed in bactroides but not in E.Coli. The other gene codes for resistance in tetracycline and is expressed in aerobically grpwn E. coli, but not in anaerobically grpwn E. coli or in bacteroides.
On April 6, 2016 at approximately 11:45am, a local police station got a call about a hostage situation at a local pharmacy. When police and medical examiners got to each crime scene, they learned that all of the hostages were given drugs and had overdosed on them. Some of the pills, in powder form, were found near the victims. One of the victims was stable enough to tell the investigators that the power on the floor were the drugs they were forced to take. The medical examiner found out each hostage was given either unknown A or unknown B.
Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to identify given Unknown White Compound by conducting various test and learning how to use lab techniques. Tests that are used during this experiment were a flame test, ion test, pH test, and conductivity test. The results drawn from these tests confirmed the identity of the Unknown White Compound to be sodium acetate (NaC2H3O2) because there were no presence of ions and sodium has a strong persistent orange color. The compound then will be synthesized with the compounds Na2CO3 and HC2H3O2 to find percent yield.
A hydrate is a compound, where water molecules are chemically bounded to another compound or element. An anhydrate is the substance remaining after removing water from a hydrate. The hydrate in this lab was Copper Sulfate. The hydrates formula is CuSO4 times xH2O. The purpose of this lab was to pull the water from a hydrate to expose the anhydrate and calculate what the hydrate is by finding the formula for the
Exercise 14: Unknown Identification Lab Report The purpose of the study was to identify the unknown bacterium using various biochemical tests in addition to using scientific methods in determining the outcome of the hypothesis. Each biochemical test will help determine the bacteria based on specific characteristics of each organism. I was giving unknown number 232. The first procedure that needed to be done after obtaining unknown bacterial mixture was to isolate the two bacteria in a pure culture using the streak plate method described in Microbiology Laboratory Manual Eight Edition. The material used was trypticase soy agar (TSA) plate, nutrient plate, starch agar, hydrogen peroxide, iodine reagent and microscope.
In this experiment, the amount of water lost in the 0.99 gram sample of hydrated salt was 0.35 grams, meaning that 35.4% of the salt’s mass was water. The unknown salt’s percent water is closest to that of Copper (II) Sulfate Pentahydrate, or CuSO4 ⋅ 5H2O. The percent error from the accepted percent water in CuSO4 ⋅ 5H2O is 1.67%, since the calculated value came out to be 0.6 less than the accepted value of 36.0%.This lab may have had some issues or sources of error, including the possibility of insufficient heating, meaning that some water may not have evaporated, that the scale was uncalibrated, or that the evaporating dish was still hot while being measured. This would have resulted in convection currents pushing up on the plate and making it seem lighter by lifting it up
Name: Simon Lau An Investigation to find out how the Concentration of a Salt Solution will affect the mass of a Potato Investigation Background Information: In this investigation we are going to see how osmosis occurs in a potato and affects the mass by reducing or adding onto it. Osmosis is the diffusion of water between a semi-permeable membrane from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Variables that can be explored in this investigation is how the concentration of salt solution could affect the mass as well as how the size of potato could affect the mass.
