Denaturation of Protein by Strong AcidJohn W. Moore, Jerrold J. Jacobsen, Gary Trammell, Kristin Johnson "Strong acid denatures egg white proteins.This video contains voiceover:""The tertiary structure of egg white proteins is held together by hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Adding strong acid to the protein disrupts the intermolecular forces, and the tertiary structure is lost. The loss in protein structure is called denaturation. The proteins precipitate, forming a white solid."""
Extraction of Acid with Base Water and diethyl ether are shaken in a separatory funnel with a small amount of red indophenol. The non-ionic indophenol remains in the ether layer, coloring it red. Addition of sodium hydroxide converts the indophenol to its blue ionic acid anion which is extracted into the water layer turning it blue.
Reactions : AcidBaseRxns (20 Variations) In order to answer the following questions, write the net ionic equation for the reaction between equal volumes of 0.10 M solutions of the following acid and base:
KOH(aq) + HBr(aq)
What are the reaction products? Does the reaction yield an acidic, basic, or neutral aqueous solution?
Synthesis of Triarylmethane and Xanthene Dyes Using Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution ReactionsJames V. McCullagh and Kelly A. Daggett In this experiment, electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions are used to synthesize several triarylmethane and xanthene dyes (fluorescein, erythrosin B, thymolphthalein, and rhodamine B) using common equipment while avoiding often troublesome, hydroscopic Lewis acids. Subsequent UVvis analysis produce spectra that match commercially available dye samples. McCullagh, James V.; Daggett, Kelly A. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 1799.

Chemical Aspects of Local and Regional AnesthesiaRobert Brunsvold and Daryl L. Ostercamp The chemistry that underlies the development of local and regional anesthesia is explored. Emphasis is placed upon the importance of acidity constants and lipophilic versus hydrophilic character in interpreting what affect a particular compound has upon biological processes. Brunsvold, Robert; Ostercamp, Daryl L. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 1816.

Presumptive and Confirmatory Drug TestsCraig Anderson Tests for illegal drugs were performed on unknowns obtained from over-the-counter cold medicines. Substances that tested positive for the qualitative Marquis color test were found to be false positives for illegal substances, while scopolamine hydrochloride shows a false positive for cocaine hydrochloride with the cobalt thiocyanate reagent. Anderson, Craig. J. Chem. Educ.2005, 82, 1809.
Acids (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Acids: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". We will observe the reaction of sodium bicarbonate with three acid solutions. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.

Acids and Salts (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Acids and Salts: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". This problem will explore a few properties of common acids and their salts. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.

Oxides (GCMP)David M. Whisnant Oxides: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". In this problem we will explore the properties of the oxides of a few elements. We will add samples of the oxides to universal indicator solution and learn about the acid-base character of the oxides. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
