    To investigate which food dye color were present in the low-calorie Gatorade, a small sample of the Gatorade was inserted into a UV-Vis spectrometer to examine which color was being absorbed and reflected. There were two peaks, where the two colors were being the most absorbed. Once the absorbance was figured out, the food dyes that is needed in the Gatorade was present by using the color spectrum and the wavelength. These colors were green (514 nm) and orange (629.6 nm). Then the emitting colors can be solved.…

    The electrochemical properties of the squaraine dyes (SQ1 & SQ2) were investigated. The effects of the chemical structures of two SQ1&SQ2 dyes were selected in relation to the variable property of -COOH substituent for SQ1 compare to SQ2 which without substituent and determine their potential energy levels in ground and excited states HOMO and LUMO. The HOMO energy levels of the SQ1 & SQ2 dyes are -5.19 eV and -5.16 eV. The LUMO energy levels are calculated to be -3.08 eV and -3.1eV respectively. The ground state geometry has been computed by applying density functional theory (DFT). The excitation energy was calculated by using time-dependent (DFT-TD) at DFT/B3LYP/6-31G** level of theory.…
