Iodine Test for Starch Introduction and Hypothesis: In this experiment‚ we used iodine to test for starch in certain solutions. Iodine separates starch from polysaccharides‚ monosaccharides‚ and disaccharides. Starch is a curled polymer of glucose and iodine interacts with molecules‚ which changes the color of the molecules to a kind of black color. Iodine does not respond with carbohydrates that are not curled or coiled‚ thus the color stays yellowish brown. A black color result means that starch

temperature; this chemical element is abbreviated as He. Helium has two protons in its nucleus whereas the atomic number of helium is 2 and is listed in group VIII of the periodic table. As a noble gas helium is almost chemically inert‚ unreactive. After hydrogen‚ helium is the most abundant element in the universe. During an eclipse in 1868‚ French astronomer Pierre Janssen discovered helium. After Helium was proven to be an element it was named by a British chemist Sir Edward Frankland and British astronomer

SCH4U 03/04/13 Hydrogen Bonding Purpose: The purpose of this investigation is to test the concept of hydrogen bonding. Hypothesis: Given the concept of hydrogen bonding I predict that the bulky glycerol molecules limits the number of possible hydrogen bonds. If water is mixed with glycerol should make it possible for water to form many hydrogen bonds with the glycerol molecules‚ causing it to become a exothermic reaction. Because glycerol has more possibilities for hydrogen bonding I believe

Label five test tubes 1-5. Place 4 mL of 1 % starch in each of the first four test tubes. Place 4 mL of amylase solution in the fifth tube. Place all of the tubes in the 37°C water bath for 5 minutes. Obtain 5 clean droppers and label them 1-5. (To avoid contamination of these solutions

Hydrogen Automobiles The effect of pollution that is emitted from vehicles is a serious concern in today ’s society. The cause of this pollution is the toxic emissions from current vehicles. This toxic emissions or pollution destroys the Earth ’s ozone layer or atmospheric gases Acknowledging these facts‚ many are very concerned with the condition of the Earth ’s atmospheric gases in the future. In just a very short time‚ scientists produced a new vehicle which only emits water out of its exhaust

Hydrogen has a high specific energy‚ high flame speed‚ wide range of flammability‚ and clean burning characteristics which suggest a possibility of high performance in internal combustion engines (ICE). These attributes have been realized for more than half a century since the onset of hydrogen engine development. In the early 1990s‚ FSEC conducted research on using hydrogen in an ICE. This work resulted in the development of a mixed fuel called HYTEST. Today‚ automobile manufacturers and DOE continue

Hydrogen Summary * This is how hydrogen fuel cells work: 1. Gas stored in tanks 2. Atoms reach anode 3. Become hydrogen ion and a free electron 4. Ion goes through electrolyte layer 5. Hydrogen ion passes‚ but free electron does not 6. Free electron runs through external circuit from anode (-) to cathode (+) 7. Current of electrons creates electricity 8. Hydrogen ion enters cathode and combines with oxygen to become water which is better for the ecosystem because
