Dr. Stench's Iodorizing Foot Dust
Evidence Report The evidence contains ingredients B and E because when testing ingredient B during the heat test it burnt like the evidence. The evidence is like E because during the visual examination test I noticed they were both chunky, white powders. Also B and E are like evidence because during the Iodine test it didn't turn purple or blackish so there was no starch, and Evidence is like E because there was bubbles during the vinegar test. That’s why I know that Miss Tavaglione’s Dr. Stench’s Deodorizing Foot Dust was the evidence and the mysterious powder at the scene. That’s how I know Miss Tavaglione took the gradebook. The Most useful powder test I used was the heat test because E, B, and evidence all had similar reactions during …show more content…
The iodine test was a change in color when we were testing for starch. It is important to retest by making your own of the ingredients because you need to know what ingredients it is you can’t just say it’s B and E because that's not good evidence and the only way to test evidence again to have clues on what the powder is you have to mix different ingredients. To avoid cross contamination we put in little bits of each ingredients in not all at once. This is so that it doesn’t accidentally tip of the spoon into another ingredient. To improve the lab I would give everyone a spot plate and each of them do their own ingredient and we share the different substances. This is so we take less time setting the spot plate up. If to suspects use the same foot powder I would measure the foot size of the footprint and determine who has the bigger foot. The police department or fire department would use chemistry to determine maybe a burnt house. What if a house caught on fire and it was because of a lightbulb and they didn’t know which light bulb it was. By leaving each different light bulb on and seeing which one gets the hottest you can determine which light bulb it was so you can put it on the report of the burning

    The purpose of the Types of Chemical Reactions lab is to become familiar with the different types of chemical equations. Also the experiment allows one to apply their equation skills to explain reactions. This is done by heating compounds with the Bunsen burner and also by mixing compounds in the twenty four well plate. The experiment found that the liquid compounds reacted to form milky liquids. Also that the heated solids caused condensation that put the fire on the splints out. The experiment could have been flawed due to measurements.…

    As you have seen in the modules, each atom has a unique arrangement of electrons and scientists take advantage of this concept to identify materials based on the colors that are emitted. This can be done using scientific instruments called spectroscopes by comparing samples of pure elements with unknown substances. In this lab you will be observing the colors of light emitted when samples of known metallic ions are exposed to flame, thus absorbing energy, and carefully observing the color change in the flame. You will also have an unknown sample that is one of the “knowns”. The unknown can be identified by comparison to…

    After a compound has been synthesized, tests should be carried out to verify that the compound fonned is indeed the compound desired. There are a number of tests that can be perfonned to verify that the compound is the one desired. In Experiment 15A, you prepared alum crystals, KAl(S04)z·12H 20. In Experiment 15B, you will conduct a series of tests to detennine if your crystals are really alum. The first test is to find the melting temperature of the compound and compare this value with the accepted (published) value for alum (92.5°C). The second test detennines the water of hydration present in the alum crystals. The third test is a chemical test to detennine the percent sulfate in your sample of alum.…

    Trace evidence is based on Locard's exchange principle which contends that every contact no matter how slight will leave a trace . The trace is normally caused by objects or substances contacting one another, and leaving a small sample on the contact surfaces. Foreign objects or pieces of material present at a crime scene and tracing its origin can assist in an arrest and conviction the same way finding some trace from the victim or crime scene on a suspect can have a strong impact on a case. Trace evidence, though often insufficient on its own to make a case, may support other evidence or even prompt a confession. Because trace evidence can be any number of things, from a paint chip to a piece of glass to plant debris, there are numerous different methods used for analysis. This essay is to only cover the chemistry unit in the analysis of synthetic material, blood and urine samples, to explore how their work helps in the general aspect of crime investigation and how cases are built using this type of trace evidence.…

    The purpose of this lab was to see that when elements are heated, they may enter and excited state. We proved this by doing a flame test. During Part A, we used a spectroscope where all of the colors are arranged for you; whereas in Part B, we could see and make the colors ourselves and get a more accurate reading of the flames. We had specific elements we were told to put on the wire loop, and when we did that we saw different color flames come out of the Bunsen burner. That enabled out group to see the element in an excited state. The unknown element was lithium. This is known because if the color of the flame produced. The group I was in got mainly all the correct colored flames, but the few that were incorrect happened because the wire loop wasn’t completely clean and there was still residue from the other elements. Overall, our group learned what it meant for an element to enter an excited state.…
