    Study Notes

    Functional Groups

    • Salicylic acid contains both a phenol and a carboxylic acid group.
    • Acetic anhydride features two ester functional groups.
    • Acetylsalicylic acid is composed of an ester and a carboxylic acid.
    • Acetic acid is classified as a carboxylic acid.

    Iron (III) Chloride Test Results

    • Yellow color change indicates the presence of a phenol group.
    • If the phenol is present but does not fully react, the color remains yellow.

    Universal Indicator Results

    • The pH indicator distinguishes between acidic and basic products.
    • Aspirin, containing carboxylic acid, should show an acidic reaction for purity confirmation.

    Simulating PADs

    • Experiment involved paper, FeCl3, and a pH indicator.
    • Paper was dipped in water to absorb and react with FeCl3 and pH indicator.

    PADs Testing Procedure

    • Medicine rubbed across a line on PADs paper.
    • Bottom of the paper dipped in water without touching test strips.
    • Waiting for the right indicator to turn blue signifies proper reaction.
    • Final color analysis on the test strip determines positive or negative results.

    Soap Components

    • Glycerol combined with three fatty acid salts.
    • Various acids: oleic, stearic, linoleic, and palmitic acids.

    Reactions in Soap Production

    • Reactants include triacylglyceride and sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
    • Products formed are glycerol and three fatty acid salts through hydrolysis.

    pH of Soap

    • Ivory soap has a pH of 8; olive oil soap ranges between 12 and 13.
    • Olive oil soap is more alkaline compared to ivory soap.

    Soap Behavior in Different Solutions

    • Distilled Water: Clear bubbles, highly soluble due to no interfering minerals.
    • Tap Water: Cloudy with fewer bubbles, lower solubility due to ion bonding (hard water).
    • Calcium Chloride Solutions: No bubbles, indicating high insolubility with increased calcium concentration.

    Dissolving Organic Acids and Bases

    • Acids and bases can neutralize one another by direct addition.
    • Important for managing blood pH imbalances in medical scenarios.

    Structure of Lactose

    • A disaccharide comprised of two glucose molecules.

    Lactose Digestion Location

    • Digested in the duodenum by the enzyme lactase.

    Enzyme Activity and Environmental Factors

    • Enzymes function best at optimal pH and body temperature.
    • Extreme changes in temperature lead to denaturation or inactivation of enzymes.

    Causes and Symptoms of Lactose Intolerance

    • Lack of lactase enzyme leads to symptoms like stomach cramps and diarrhea.

    DNA Structure and Function

    • DNA, a double-stranded alpha helix, carries genetic information.
    • Composed of adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, with a sugar-phosphate backbone.
    • Hydrogen bonds secure base pairing: cytosine with guanine (3 bonds), adenine with thymine (2 bonds).

    Effects of High Heat on DNA

    • Heating DNA excessively breaks hydrogen bonds, altering its structure and function.

    DNA Extraction Method

    • Chopped onion mixed with a homogenizing solution of salt, reagent, and detergent.
    • Water bath treatment weakens cell walls, enabling DNA separation upon cooling and adding ethanol.

    Base-Pairing in DNA

    • Bases pair via hydrogen bonds maintaining integrity.
    • Cytosine and guanine pair with three bonds, while adenine and thymine pair with two bonds.

    Testing for Various Substances

    • Calcium test: cloudy and yellow indicates a positive reaction.
    • Sodium presence indicated by yellow flame under metal.
    • Phosphate and sulfate tests resemble calcium results with color changes.
    • Multistix assesses multiple parameters like blood, protein, glucose, and pH.

    Normal Urine Composition and Abnormal Indicators

    • Typical urine contains water, urea, sodium, potassium, chloride, and creatinine.
    • Presence of glucose is abnormal, indicating potential diabetes.
    • Urine color may signal dehydration or dietary changes, while pH variations could indicate various health conditions.
