Filtration

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is defined as a decrease in kidney function occurring in the glomerular filtration ability of the kidney causing an increase in nitrogenous waste in the blood and in turn increasing the creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels (McCance & Huether, 2014). Other findings associated with AKI include, a decrease in urinary output and also accumulation of metabolic acids, and increased potassium and phosphate concentrations (Bellomo, Kellum & Ronco, 2012). The AKI is…

mixture changed to a yellow green color. In order to obtain the percent composition, a filtration system was used to separate the sand from the liquid, by straining the solid with the use of filter paper. Evaporation or heating the liquid mixture separated the liquid in the form of vapor was also used in order to get the salt alone. A chemical change also occurred when hydrochloric acid was added to the filtration system because bubbles were visible.…

before the filtration process Is because the sucrose would not be pure enough and would have a very low percentage composition due to the fact that it would have many impurities from other components. The impurities will be in the Sucrose because it is insoluble and does not dissolve in DCM. Thoroughly stirring the mixture is required before filtration to make sure all the other components are dissolved in DCM excluding the Sucrose. So initially, the Solid here which is Sucrose will remain…

pump water. However, that one thing serves several very important functions, such as: • Pulls the water from your pool through the skimmers and drains. • Then it circulates (pushes) that water through the filter. • Lastly, after going through the filtration system, your pool pump will return the filtered (clean) water back into your pool. The Three Mains Components of a Pool Pump There are three main components of a…

“azobenzene” and placed aside to allow crude solid to dry. A portion of 6 M HCl was added to the Erlenmeyer flask labeled “base” until the solution became acidic. The solution was then placed in an ice bath for 5 minutes and filtered via vacuum filtration. Recovered solid was placed in a beaker labeled “Amine” and placed in a lab drawer to dry. A portion of 6 M NaOH…

2.1 Introduction In this career episode, I shall describe major project performed during course of my employment in Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resource “RCRWR” which functions under Ministry of Science and Technology, Federal Government of Pakistan. I was appointed as Assistant Director and I am going to describe the project KHUSHAL PAKISTAN PROGRAMME (Devolution Support Program) for the provision of safe drinking water. This career episode took place from March till October 2007…

for instead of 60 minutes. This could have influenced the amount of product obtained from the reflux. The second part of this multistep synthesis was to prepare Benzil from the reaction of Benzoin and HNO3. This was done through reflux, vacuum filtration and recrystallization techniques. The melting point was recorded to ensure the completion of this reaction. The melting point was determined to be 69℃. The limiting reagent for this reaction was determined to be benzoin. Using the theoretical…

hydroxide solution. The three methods that we used were decanting, separation by centrifuge, and filtration with filter paper. According to the CRC Handbook, the expected concentration at 20 degrees Celsius of dissolved calcium hydroxide is 2.025×〖10〗^(-2)M. During our experiment we found that filtration yielded the most accurate results, followed by separation by centrifuge, and then by decanting. Using filtration, we got measured concentrations of 0.017 M using the pH probe and 0.019 using…

solid, crystallized state. Both compounds were white and had a slight odor. Also on the Data Sheet it states that NaCl is dissolvable in water. The Data sheet supports our results. Both unknown and known compounds had similar amounts of AgCl on the filtration paper. From the results I can conclude that the unknown NaCl and the known NaCl produces the same product, AgCl, when reacting with AgNO3. The AgCl forms because Cl reacts with Ag. The formula below shows this interaction between the two…

OBJECTIVE For the first week of the lab, the objectives were to isolate and test for the presence of major components of milk, including proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals and to determine the presence of the various components of milk in the various fractions using qualitative tests for these substances. For the second week of the lab, the there were three objectives that related to the procedure: to determine the calcium concentration of milk using the technique of…
