14 Lab Materials (per group): Ring stand with ring Water Mesh screen Large kitchen matches 2 12 oz Aluminum cans 10 cm x 10 cm Square of Thermometer heavy-duty aluminum foil Plastic bottle cap Small clump of modeling clay Food items to test: Triple beam balance Cashew nuts or pumpkin seeds 3 4 Small metal paper clips Cheese puffs Graduated cylinder SAFETY! ALERT Matches are flammable solids. Tie back long hair and secure loose clothing. Wear safety goggles and lab apron. In case of burns, place burned area under cold water; notify your teacher immediately. Black soot will form on the bottom of the burned can, which may stain clothing. (Some students may be allergic to the cashews and/or the burning of cashews. Check with students before proceeding. If student is allergic to nuts, then use other samples of food such as pumpkin seeds.) Procedure: 1. Place a small amount of modeling clay into the bottle cap. 2. Straighten a paper clip and wrap one end around the food item to be tested. Place the other end into the modeling clay in the bottle cap. 3. Measure the mass of the food and bottle cap system. Record the initial mass (M i ). 4. Measure 100 ml of water in the graduated cylinder. Pour the water into one of the aluminum cans. (Note: 100 ml of water has a mass of 100 g.) 5. Measure the initial temperature (T i ) of the water. Record the temperature. Cashew Wrapped in Paper Clip 6. Attach the ring to the ring stand. 7. Place the bottle cap and food source on the aluminum foil underneath the ring. Position the ring just above the food source. BLM 102

15 Lab 8. Place the mesh on the ring along with the aluminum can and water. 9. Carefully ignite the food sample with a match. Note: This may take several matches. Discard the burned matches in a container of water. Quickly relight the sample if the flame goes out so the water in the calorimeter does not cool Allow the food to burn completely. Measure the temperature of the water in the can. Make sure the temperature has reached a steady level before recording the final (T f ) value. The temperature will continue to rise as heat is transferred from the can to the water. Measure the mass of the burnt food and bottle cap system. Record the final mass (M f ). Repeat the procedure to collect data for the other food sample. Use a different can. Calculate the energy released in the food sample by using the following steps: Determine the change in temperature for the trials. ( T) x (mass of water) = calories Convert the amount of calories to kilocalories (calories/1,000 = kilocalories). 15. Determine the Calories (kilocalories) per gram of food. Find the mass of burned food. kcal mass of food = kcal/g kcal/g = Calories Note: Energy is measured in calories with the lowercase c. Food contains a large amount of stored energy, thus a kilocalorie is the designated unit of measure. A Calorie with the uppercase C is the unit nutritionists use to refer to the amount of energy stored in food. BLM 103

16 Lab Analysis: 1. Compare the nutritional labels for cashews and cheese puffs. How many Calories per gram are found in each food? 2. How does your data compare to the actual value listed on the nutritional label? 3. What accounts for the difference? 4. Which food has the best nutritional value per gram of food? BLM 104

22 Lab Fermentation With Yeast Purpose: Determine how yeast responds to various concentrations of molasses. Introduction In this lab experiment, you will determine how yeast cells respond to increasing concentrations of molasses, a type of syrup made from sugar cane. You may not be familiar with molasses but if you have ever made cookies with brown sugar, you have used a molasses product. Yeasts are living organisms classified as members of Kingdom Fungi. Most members of the kingdom are multicellular decomposers like mushrooms. Yeast is a single-celled organism that reproduces by budding, or growing a new yeast family member off the body of the individual yeast. Budding is a type of asexual reproduction where the new yeast organism receives an exact copy of DNA from the original cell. In a sense, yeast clone themselves. Yeasts are used for fermentation of soy sauce, beer, and in bread making. During the experiment, waft some of the fumes toward you. The smell is from the yeast feast provided for them in the various molasses solutions. Your job is to determine if concentrations of molasses make a difference in the rate of sugar consumption by yeast. Write the title of the lab and the question you are investigating in your journal. Hypothesis: Discuss with your group members a possible answer to the question. Write your hypothesis in your journal. Variables: Make a list of variables including the independent and dependent variables. The control is the same for the group. Include a list of constants, the variables that do not change in your experiment. BLM 110

23 Lab SAFETY! ALERT Goggles and aprons must be worn at all times. While yeast and molasses are used extensively in the food industry, you do not want it in your eyes. Practice caution when pouring the warm water into your test tubes. The hot plate is to remain on throughout the lab. Be sure to tell your teacher if the water level gets too low or if an accident occurs. Materials: 2 Large test tubes Heat-resistant gloves 15% Molasses solution Test tube rack 10% Molasses solution Hot plate 20% Molasses solution ml Beakers 40% Molasses solution Stopwatch 60% Molasses solution 7 Stirring rods 80% Molasses solution Labels Yeast Yeast and water solution ml Graduated cylinders 2 50 ml Beakers 4 Hex head nuts Thermometer Electronic balance 2 Plastic pipettes Distilled water 1000 ml Beaker Procedures: 7 10 ml Graduated cylinders 1. Label one large test tube the control. Label the second one according to the concentration of molasses assigned to your group. 2. Measure and place 2 g of yeast in each of two 50 ml beakers. Label one the control and the other one your assigned solution concentration. 3. Pour a 10 ml sample of stock solution in one beaker and 10 ml of water in the control beaker. Return to your work station and stir the mixture. 4. After a minute or two, fill one pipette bulb as completely as possible with the yeast and water solution. Make sure the stem of the pipette is clear with no solution trapped inside. BLM 111

24 Lab 5. Thread the stem of the pipette through 2 hex head nuts and place the pipette bulb side down into the test tube labeled control. 6. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the solution concentration assigned to your group. 7. Fill both test tubes with warm water from the stock supply prepared by your teacher. Make sure that water covers the tip of the pipette. 8. When you observe bubbles coming from the pipette stem, start the stopwatch and count the bubbles from both tubes for a total of 5 minutes. 9. Record your observations and data into your journal. Make a sketch of the equipment setup, including labels. 10. Clean up your work stations and return the materials according to your teacher s instructions. 11. Create a data table similar to the one below for recording class data. 12. After everyone has logged in their data, calculate the average number of bubbles for 5 minutes and then the average number of bubbles for 1 minute. 13. Make a graph using the data for the average number of bubbles per minute. 14. Analyze the data and record your explanation of the results. Response of Yeast to Various Molasses Concentrations % Concentration 0% 10% 20% 40% 60% 80% Number of bubbles for 5 minutes Number of bubbles for 1 minute BLM 112

25 Lab Analysis and Conclusions: 1. How did yeast respond to the increasing concentrations of molasses? 2. What gas was given off in the bubbles? 3. Would you classify yeast as a consumer or producer? Why? 4. Why do yeast break down sugar? 5. Do yeast use aerobic respiration to get energy from sugar? Explain. BLM 113
