The goal for our lab activity was to make a silver mirror by reducing silver ions with dextrose. The materials that we used were acetone‚ 5 mL of 1.5 M ammonium nitrate solution (NH4NO3)‚ 5 mL of 0.5 silver nitrate solution (AgNO3)‚ 10 mL of 5% dextrose solution (C6H12O6)‚ 10mL of 10% sodium hydroxide solution (NaOH)‚ a 50 mL beaker‚ a 250 mL Florence flask with a rubber stopper‚ a 10 mL graduated cylinder‚ a waste beaker‚ and distilled water. The first thing we did was rinsed the beaker‚ cylinder

Effect of ions on living organisms (24 marks) An ion is a charged atom or molecule. This is because it does not have an equal amount of protons and electrons‚ therefore giving the atom an overall charge. An example of an ion is ‚ this is sodium and the plus sign represents an overall positive charge. Ions are very important to living organisms as they are essential for life‚ they play an important role within the cell allowing mechanisms within the living organisms such as respiration‚ to take

Investigation - Solution Colour and Ion Concentration Aim: To investigate whether solution colour can be used to reliably determine the concentration of coloured ions in a solution. Hypothesis: the concentration of permanganate ions in the solution is inversely proportional to the percentage transmission of light through the solution. Dependent variable: concentration of permanganate ions. Independent variable: percentage transmission of light through the solution. Equipment: 20 ml

Lab #3: Ion Exchange Chromatography Objective The purpose of this experiment was to separate proteins on the basis of their net charge at a particular pH. In cation exchange chromatography positively charged molecules are attracted to a negatively charged column. Conversely‚ in anion exchange chromatography‚ negatively charged molecules are attracted to a positively charged column. Experimental results could be monitored in a predictable way by controlling running pH‚ salt concentration‚ and by

System I: Ion Channels 1. What structures in the cell membrane function as ion channels? Integral Proteins 2. Ion channels are selective for specific ions. What three characteristics of the ions are important for this selectivity? 1. Charge 2. Size 3. Amount of water the ion attracts 3. Channels can be classified as either gated or nongated channels. A sodium channel that is always open would be classified as a/an __________nongated______________ channel. 4. Would sodium ions move into

Buffer solutions and common ion effect A buffer solution resists (or buffers) a change in its pH. That is‚ we can add a small amount of an acid or base to a buffer solution and the pH will change very little. How to calculate pH of buffer solution containing both acid and conjugate base? Dissociation constant definition 1.1 can be rearranged into or (note that due to sign change [A-] was moved to nominator). This is so called Henderson-Hasselbalch equation (or buffer equation)
