Biuret reagent will indicate the presence of protein in a given sample. It is also known as the Piotrowski's test. This reagent consists of copper (II) sulfate and sodium hydroxide. It detects peptide bonds by the reaction of the copper ions in an alkaline solution. The copper ions would form violet colored complexes when peptide is present in the solution. From this test, concentration can be calculated since the intensity of the color depends on the amount of peptide bonds and according to the Beer-Lambert law concentration and the absorption of light is proportional. The concentration is calculated by a spectrophotometric technique at a wavelength of 540 nm.
Well a question to ask would be if the mass of the material has changed significantly as that would determine that the substance is radioactive or if there have been any high readings found by a Geiger meter in certain period of time
hope that helps
1 - Chemistry is a branch of science focusing on elements, reactions, and chemicals.
2 - We study chemistry to learn more about these chemicals and elements and to discover new chemicals as well as to answer questions in life about reactions.
3 - Chemistry relates to our life in various ways, from the chemicals we inhale to the basic reactions in cooking and baking.
4 - The main branches of Chemistry are Physical, analytical, biochemistry, organic and inorganic chemistry.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The difference in temperature is significant means that the lower-boiling liquid finishes distilling at a temperature that is too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be in vapor form yet.
Explanation:
The temperature will rise as the vapor of lower-boiling liquid rushes into the distillation head. However once the lower-boiling liquid is done distilling, there is a temperature drop because while the lower temperature liquid is done distilling, the temperature is still too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be rushing in as a vapour, so the temperature drops.
The substance would be referred to as a compound substance.
