Luminol Reaction Lab

Decent Essays
As known, the chemical reaction of luminol can be classified as a process of chemiluminescence. The luminol chemical reaction can be compared to the chemical reaction of a glow stick. If a chemical reaction is at a cold/cooler temperature, it occurs at a slower rate. If a chemical reaction is at a hotter/warmer temperature, it occurs at a faster rate. If it is cooler/cooler it last longer, because it slow down. If it is hotter/warmer, it ends quickly, because the reaction is spead up. One can compare this to two people, that run at the same speed, in normal running weather. The starting line is when the reaction starts and the finish line is when the reaction ends. They are both going the same amount of distance, but one is in cold weather

    In the Acid-Catalyzed Hydration of norbornene, water and sulfuric acid were added to the C=C double bond to form norborneol. Sulfuric acid acted as a catalyst, where it was not consumed in the reaction and helped to propel the reaction forward, as it was vital in forming hydronium ion and breaking the double bond. Both the products endo-norborneol and exo-norborneol were synthesized; however regioselectivity and stereoselectivity played a role as to which product was more preferred and whether the equatorial or axial orientation of the hydroxy group was favored. The setup of the Cold-Finger, and the ability of norborneol to sublime readily allowed for the purification of the crude product to obtain the diastereomeric products exo- and endo-norborneol.…

    Observations: This experiment was divided into two parts: one part was to observe the properties of a single Alka Seltzer tablet and the second part was to find the percentage of CO2. In the first part of the experiment, the visible properties of Alka Seltzer were observed and recorded. Each Alka Seltzer contains the same three ingredients: 325 mg of Aspirin, 1000 mg of Citric Acid, and 1916 mg of Sodium Bicarbonate.…

    Maple Syrup n’ Water Reactions Lab In the egg osmosis lab, we set out to see the reactions that the egg had when placed in maple syrup or placed in distilled/pure water. Osmosis is when a solution attempts to bring itself to equilibrium by moving from a high concentration area to an area of low concentration, and in this lab; the egg attempted to bring itself to an area of low concentration. Secondly, hypotonic is an area of a solution that has low concentration, in contraire; hypertonic is an area of high concentration, in this lab the distilled water was hypotonic and the maple syrup was hypertonic. The distilled water was hypotonic because it allowed the liquid from the egg to move to it and the maple syrup was hypertonic because the egg…

    Exercises for BIOL 3612 Biochemistry Lab EXERCISE 1: SOME BASICS OF SECONDARY AND TERTIARY STRUCTURE Exploring PDB files and secondary structure The exercise was helpful in creating a picture for me to really understand the 3D structures of proteins. By navigating through different protein representations, I was able to recall several important concepts I learned from lecture. Also, by seeing those structures in relative to one another, I was able to putting the concepts together into a big pictures that allows me to fully understand the topic. Unlike figures in the book, Jmol clearly shows the position of the hydrogen bonds which is found between C…

    The authors created the Accelerated Sensor of Action Potentials 1 (ASAP 1) using a green fluorescent protein source on the extracellular side of the plasma membrane to highlight the membrane potential changes as demonstrated by the fluctuation in the fluorescent brightness. Neuronal action potentials generated are monitored up to 200 Hz in frequency using this device. The general purpose of this experiment was to further understand information processing in the brain and how brain activity is affected by electrical activity between neurons. A genetically modified indicator of this kind can provide a real time account of how the chemical signals are being received by the membrane and translated into action potentials during depolarization. Advancements in this field of representing membrane potential changes could lead to improved treatment for a variety of disorders affecting brain tissue and regulating electrical impulses between neurons.…

    This last picture to add to this collection of memories about Lupe Ave, in Newbury Park is the most important of all because these two remarkable woman personified what good neighbors and kindness is all about. Lavera who lived across from us at 265 and Aggie who lived next door at 250 greeted us on day one when we moved into the neighborhood 29 years ago. Lavera Gross and Aggie Renauld both lived alone and like most of the neighborhood at that time were older and original owners. We were the young ones moving in and the first gay couple ever in the neighborhood. I had so many reservations when we were buying this house, I though David was nuts but to my surprise people in this conservative community took the time to know us and over the…

    Identifying the Photosynthetic Pigments Introduction: This experiment was mostly introduced as identifying the different photosynthetic pigments between the Spinach and Blue-green algae. These two pigments were well used in this experiment and simply finding the appearances. Our group was to experiment both these pigments by the amount of bands there was to use, the distance between one band to another, the band color, the distance pigment migrated from the distance solvent front migrated, and lastly the pigment name. If we add the chromatography liquid to our pigments, then the extract of the pigment begin to separate onto the TLC plate. Materials: 50-mL Beakers Pencil 0.5 mL Blue-green extract 2 Pipet, graduated 4 mL Chromatography solvent 2 pipet, thin-stem 0.5 mL Spinach extract Ruler TLC plate (sheet) Scissors Marker or Wax 2 Watch Glasses Procedure: Label the two 50-mL beakers with group name or number, one beaker “spinach extract” and other “blue-green algae extract” Use scissors to cut the TLC sheet and…

    In this lab, we carried out a variety of reactions using different chemicals and metals. A chemical reaction is when the chemical state of the substance you are testing rearranges its ionic and molecular structure. One of the reactions we experienced was single replacement, this consists of one ion switching places with another ion to form a new compound. Another reaction we saw was double replacement. In this reaction, two compounds ions are switched to form two new compounds.…

    Discussion Graph 1 displays the reaction time (in minutes) of how long it took for the Alka-Seltzer tablet to completely dissolve per trial. Graph 2 displays the averages of the reaction time which showed the higher the water temperature is, the faster the reaction time would be. At 65⁰C the average time for the Alka-Seltzer to completely dissolve was 1 minute 4 seconds followed by 1 minute 20 seconds at 35⁰C and ending with the highest average at 2 minutes 1 second (1.61). The hypothesis stated that hot water temperature would make the Alka-Seltzer tablet dissolve the fastest.…

    The experimental solutions were analyzed spectrophotometrically to collect the data. The absorbance of these solutions was recording. However, the collected data should not be greater than the given absorbance of p-nitrophenol standard (1.310). If the absorbance of experimental solutions was higher than the standard one, that solution had to be diluted to get the lower number. The maximum time to dilute solution in this experiment was 2.…

    A Fischer Esterification reaction is an acid-catalyzed nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol. Benzococaine, a local anesthetic, is prepared by direct Fischer Esterification of p-aminobenzoic acid with ethanol, with the use of sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The carbonyl oxygen is protonated by sulfuric acid, and this activates the carboxylic acid. After protonation, the carbonyl oxygen holds a positive charge, which causes the oxygen atom to take up an electron pair from the double bond. This creates a positive charge on the carbonyl carbon, which then becomes a subject of nucleophile attack by the alcohol group of ethanol, yielding a tetrahedral intermediate.…
