M & M Three oranges were cut in half and then placed over the juicer. The oranges were then pressed down, while being twisted allowing the juices from the oranges to be collected in the tray below. The orange juice in the trays were then poured into a 250ml beaker with cheese cloth on top of it. The cheesecloth caught the larger pieces of pulp from the oranges while allowing the juice to pass. The orange juice was then transferred into six 1.5ml centrifuge tubes. The six centrifuge were then…

In this week’s reflection video, I, learned about the weapon printing design done by the process of hydro-graphics. In the video a rifle stock is used with a Dip Wizard hydrographic kit to add a camouflage pattern. The Dip Wizard’s Kit just like other hydrographic kits uses a technique of applying a printed pattern such as; camouflage or any other pattern to a 3-dimensional object. This process goes by the terms; hydro-graphics, hydro-dipping, image transferring, immersion and water print…

Lab 9: Preparation of an Iron Oxalate Complex. POST-LAB: RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 1. Write a brief summary of your experiment. The experiment was conducted by creating a K3Fe(C2O4)33H2O solution using DI water, 3.501 g of iron (II) ammonium sulfate, H2C2O, K2C2O4, and H2O2. 5 ml of ethanol was dispensed within the solution to aid in the crystallization of the oxalate. The results of the experiment did not provided crystals of the oxalate rather crystals of impurities formed within the solution…

3-(4-acetylphenyl)-6-bromo-2-(4-chlorophenyl)quinazolin-4(3H)-one (2) Compound 1 ( 0.01 mol) fused with p-aminoacetophenone ( 0.01 mol) at 160 oC in an oil bath for 2 h. Crystallized from ethanol to give redish brown crystals of 2, m.p. 210oC in 80% yield. Analysis for C22H14BrClN2O2, Calcd.: % C, 58.24; H, 3.11; N, 6.17, Found: % C, 58.31; H, 3.17; N, 6.20, IR spectrum (KBr, cm-1) showed characteristic absorption bands at 3380 (C-H aromatic), 1710 (C=O of acetyl), at 1690 (C=O of…

Everybody has heard of paper maché, but not everyone knows of the much more useful alternative, paper maché clay. It’s simple to use, and easy to fill a space. It is much better than normal paper maché clay, even if it has it’s flaws. The benefits far outweigh the flaws, making it an extremely useful tool in making masks. Masks can be made from all kinds of material, but using paper maché clay is the easiest way to have the most artistic freedom. Paper maché clay can be messy, but so can paper…

Figure 3. Possible reaction mechanism for the decomposition of ammonium perchlorate. Based on the findings from all of the used techniques, the species formed in the beginning are ammonium ion, oxygen and chlorine species. The decomposition products of ammonium ion were hydroxylamine, ammonia and nitrogen dioxide. The perchlorate ion loses one of the oxygen atoms and forms chlorate ion. The ammonia is lost in reaction through formation of hydroxylamine, which is formed in reaction between…

The Calorimetric Determination of Enthalpy and Entropy Changes of the Thermal Decomposition of Sodium Sulphate Decahydrate Abstract Sodium sulphate decahydrate thermally decomposes to anhydrous sodium sulphate at 50⁰ C and cools to form anhydrous sodium sulphate. Using Hess's Law the enthalpy and entropy changes of this process can be determined in order to deduce the spontaneity of the reaction. The transition temperature was determined by melting the hydrated crystals at 50⁰ C and allowing…

Most people who watch crime dramas (Law & Order, NCIS, or CSI) on TV know what the cops do when they’re at a crime scene. When cops are investigating a crime scene, they spray a special type of solution involving the chemical Luminol that glows blue in the dark. The topic of this experiment is to determine what other liquids can react with Luminol to make the solution glow blue in the dark. The independent variable would be the types of chemicals used (in cups) and the dependent variable would…

Creating food: Before making the food, make sure to wash your hands thoroughly. After washing your hands, make sure to wipe down your station before using it. There are alcohol spray bottles throughout the lab. Spray it in your area and use the paper towels to wipe it down. Obtain a clean polystyrene vial and fill one eighth of the tube with dry food. The fly food was purchased from the Carolina Biological Supply company. Add about 9 ml of water to the dry food and gently roll the vial five…
