Describe the VSEPR geometry around at least 3 of the central atoms.

We are constantly being bombarded with molecules all around us. We interact with these molecules in many different ways. They stimulate our senses. They ease our pain. They color our world. The bonds in these molecules determine their shape and polarity, and therefore determine the interaction that occurs. Some examples of molecules include: The “burn” […]

Compare the IR spectra of the starting materials to the IR Spectrum of your product.

Report the amounts of the reactants (mass and moles), your yield (actual, in grams and moles, and percent), and the melting point of your product. Remember, percent yields are based on the theoretical yield of the reaction. Comparing your crude product to your recrystallized product will not provide the “percent yield” for the reaction. Compare […]

Explain the science principles explode during this lab experiment on the Bradford Method.

• The objectives should briefly and specially state the purpose of the lab experiment for the Bradford method and for using the Protein Calibration Curve. • State what you are trying to do in the experiment for the Bradford Method and for using the Protein Calibration Curve: mention that you are carrying out this procedure […]

Discuss the biochemistry and physiology of anabolic steroids.

Approximately 30% of all college athletes are on some type of anabolic steroids. Discuss the biochemistry and physiology of anabolic steroids. Here are some questions to think about and discuss with your classmates: How do anabolic steroids work? That is, how do they make muscles grow? Do muscle cells undergo mitotic cell division? What is […]
