The equations below are examples from a Hydrogen Peroxide Iodine Clock Reaction: Reaction 1: 〖3I〗_((aq))+H_2 O_2+〖2H〗_((aq))→I_(3(aq))+〖2H〗_2 O_((l)) Reaction 2: I_(3(aq))+〖4S〗_2 O_(3(aq))→〖3I〗_((aq))+〖2S〗_4 O_(6(aq)) Reaction 3: 〖2I〗_(3(aq))+starch →starch I_5 complex +I_((aq)) (Shakhashiri, B. 1992). The first equation/reaction (determining step) shows that the iodide particles react with hydrogen peroxide to form triiodide ions. However, these ions just as quickly return back to iodide…

the ascorbic acid to form hydrogen iodide. This reaction can be explained through the following equation: C6H8O6(aq) + I2(aq) à C6H6O6(aq) + 2HI(aq). Once all the ascorbic acid has reacted, the excess iodine reacts with the starch in the solution, creating an iodine-starch complex that stains the solution to a dark blue color. Here, when no ascorbic acid remains to react with the iodine, the titration is said to have reached its endpoint. Titration of Ascorbic Acid Solution In…

Monosaccharides are the unmistakable sugars. Two monosaccharides make a disaccharide. Three or more monosaccharides are a polysaccharide. Glucose, fructose, and galactose are monosaccharides. Sucrose, lactose, and maltose are disaccharides. Starch and glycogen are polysaccharides. Central sugars can be found by utilizing Benedict's test. Proteins are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and now and again sulfur. Proteins are covalently supported in chains as polymers of amino acids.…

Plants are essential for life on earth; they are the backbone of all life. Plants are considered as autotrophic organisms, seeing as they are able to produce their own food. They are a crucial resource for many different uses, as plants are primary producers; everything we eat comes directly or indirectly from them (Schaffner, 2010). They provide a whole range of useful products, including food, fibres for cloth, and energy sources. Wood, coal and natural gas are all sourced from plants, these…

bag of Skittles and ice tea with honey, because it contained only monosaccharides. Content two belongs to Lucy Wunderchomper, who ate a Big Mac Value Meal supersized with an extra order of supersized fries and a shake, because it contained protein, starch, lipids, and monosaccharides. Stomach content three belongs to Davis O'Leary, who consumed a very lean steak and a glass of water, because I only contained protein. Stomach four belongs to U. R. Downs, who ate plain spaghetti, because it only…

Essay Question 2: Celiac Disease Celiac disease is an immune disorder in which people can’t stand gluten because it harms the inner lining of their small intestine and stops it from absorbing nutrients. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley and occasionally in some products such as vitamins, nutrient supplements, lip balms, and even some medications. When people with celiac disease eat foods containing gluten, their immune system acts by damaging or destroying villi which are the…

Evolution, Does It Makes Sense? For hundreds of years the topic of how we got here today has been questioned, and formed into different theories that tell the history of life. The theory of evolution is the most thought out and elaborate way to look at how life started as only single celled organisms and evolved into many very complex species. Evolution is said to have started on a prehistoric earth after it had formed over 4.6 billion years ago. It took about a billion years after Earth was…

In experiment 1.1, we studied the relationship molecule size has with diffusion rate. Our hypothesis claimed that smaller molecules will travel farther across the agar plate given the same duration of time. Based on the data collected, our hypothesis was proven true. Potassium permanganate has a molar mass of 158 g/mol, methylene blue 319.85 g/mol, and potassium dichromate with 294.185 g/mol. Potassium permanganate diffused the farthest, potassium dichromate second, and methylene blue secured…

people so it is relatively rare. That’s about 350 in the United States. But with today’s advancements in pharmaceuticals it has become much more manageable. My wife was also lucky that she was born in Korean and never developed the need for sweet and starch-laden food. I wish you luck and I’m sure all will work…
