Choose the best laboratory technique to use in each of the following situations. Each answer should only be used once.

1. You want to conform the identity of a solid organic molecule you have extracted from a flower petal. You do not have a standard sample of this material to compare it to but you do know the name of this molecule and have reference books you can use to look up physical properties of organic molecules.

2. Separation of two liquids in a volume of 76 mL that are mixed together is your goal. You plan on recovering the liquids after separation to run further tests on their properties. You know that the boiling point of liquid A is 86oC and the boiling point of liquid B is 112oC.

3. You are planning to carry out a reaction of two solids dissolved in water and know that it will require heating to 90oC for 3-4 hours. What technique can you use to accomplish this?

4. You carried out a microscale organic synthesis reaction and suspect that you have a mixture of products in your 0.4 mL sample. All your suspected products have boiling points over 280oC but different polarities. You would like to check to see if your sample is a mixture and what the relative concentrations of the different components of the mixture are without using all of your product. What technique would work best?

  

5. You work in a quality analysis laboratory and are asked to determine if a 0.2 mLsample of gasoline has any heptane (boiling point 98.4oC) in it. You have reference sample of all liquid alkanes commonly present in gasoline to use for comparison. What technique would work best for separating the components of gasoline and identifying any heptane present?

6. You have a sample of a solid pigment extract from a blue flower petal that you want to analyze to see if the color comes from one pigment molecule or a mixture. You know these pigment molecules are normally large and have high boiling points but that they often have enough differences in functional groups to make their polarities different. Your laboratory's HPLC ihas been sent out for repair? What other technique would be best to use for this?

A. melting point determination

B. distillation

C. reflux

D. high pressure liquid chromatagraphy

E. gas chromatography

F. thin layer chromatography

You have just isolated a new strain of Gram negative bacteria that can catabolize the sugar aspartame. Genome comparisons to all other strains don't provide any insight into the identity of this pathway. 1) Describe an experiment to identify the pathway coding for aspartame catabolism 2) Describe an experiment to move this pathway into E. coli 3) Given what we learned in class, describe how this pathway is likely positively regulated and where promoter sequence would be 4) Describe an experiment to phenotypically confirm how this pathway is regulated using a SCREEN involving styrene catabolism 5) Describe an experiment to phenotypically confirm how this pathway is regulated using a SELECTION involving LacZ

Please list relevant strain/plasmid names, or draw/describe your own custom plasmids for these experiments

An orange grove in Florida is exposed to a cold front causing a sudden change in air
temperature from 25C to 0C. How long will it take for the oranges to reach 3C in
the center? Assume that the oranges are spherical with a radius of 4 cm, the thermal
conductivity of the orange is 0.6 W/mC, specific heat of the orange is 4.18 kJ/
kgC, the density of the orange is 1,000 kg/m3, the thermal conductivity of the air is
0.027 W/mC, the density of air is 1.17 kg/m3, the specific heat of air is 1 kJ/kgC,
and the heat transfer coefficient between orange and still air is 0.675 W/m2C.

A gaseous fuel mixture stored at 745 mmHg and 298 K contains only methane(CH4) and propane (C3H8). When 12.6 L of this fuel mixture burns, it produces 761 kJ of heat. The enthalpy of combustion for CH4(g) is ?802.5kJ. The enthalpy of combustion for C3H8(g) is ?2043.9kJ. What is the mole fraction of methane in the mixture?

a) Distinguish between processing of thermoplastics and thermoset polymers to make a final product (the process is not to make the polymer, but to make the final product) and relate this to the microstrucural differences of he polymers.

b)Using the concept of the relation between glass transition temperature and stucture, explain why polyethylene is ductile at room temperature whereas polystyrene is brittle at room temperature.
