    everything. One could have missed a procedure or done a procedure incorrectly. Another could have been using the incorrect amount of liquid or sludge. Someone could have lost a test-tube or labeled it wrong causing the results to be mixed. Using too much water in the solubility tests or not getting all measurements almost exactly accurate could be two sources of error. One big mistake could be creating a vacuum in the fractional Distillation part of the lab. One careless mistake could have been doing the

  • Water Dehydration Essay

    Humans use water on a daily basis, in everything from drinking, to cleaning, and for recreational uses in pools or waterparks. But the human body itself is the main contester in how it is used. Water is a dissolving essential in vitamins and nutrients for food and for delivering them to cells. Our bodies also use water to flush out toxins, regulate body temperature, and aid our metabolism. The human body is 50-75 percent water, and when that water is lost in digestion or sweat, it needs to be replenished

    and the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols into fatty acids, partial acylglycerols and glycerol. Lipases are unique in catalyzing the hydrolysis of fats into fatty acids and glycerol at the water-lipid interface and reversing the reaction in non-aqueous media. The enzyme conformation changes when it contacts with a water-insoluble substrate. Microbial lipases are often more stable and their production is convenient and safer (Wiseman, 1995). Fungal lipases are favorable enzymes for the industrial production(Fontana

  • Caffeine Extraction Experiment

    1054 Words  | 3 Pages

    This was done by adding caffeine to water. The caffeine dissolved immediately in water as water is a polar compound. The polarity is due to the dipole interaction formed due to the electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen, where oxygen is more electronegative and thus has a positive charge. Caffeine is polar due to many oxygen-carbon and nitrogen-carbon polar bonds. Since, both compounds are polar, caffeine easily dissolves in water. The organic layer was evaporated later in

  • Advantages And Disadvantages Of Recrystallization

    1017 Words  | 3 Pages

    compound is first dissolved to prepare a highly concentrated solution at a high temperature. Following this the solution is cooled, which drops the temperature and causes the solubility of the impurities in the solution, along with the substance being purified, to decrease. The impure substance then crystallizes before the impurities, leaving them behind in the solution. The slower the cooling, the bigger the crystals that will be formed. Finally, a filtration process must be used to isolated the purer

    amount of water? My project will determine how much table salt, epsom salt and sugar will dissolve in distilled water. Distilled water is water that is purified by distillation which is when you heat up water and get rid of the natural minerals that are usually found in the water. You can’t drink this kind of water because it doesn’t have the minerals that we need. Out of the three substances, I think the table salt will dissolve the fastest because it is an ionic substance and water is a polar
