<p>Ecurrens: </p> <hr /> <div>[[CHEM_322|Back to Chem 322]]<br /> <br /> Welcome to the Light lab.<br /> <br /> In the introductory chapter we were exposed to a series of experiments that were not appropriately described by the current theory, ie. classical mechanics. These experiments lead to the development of quantum mechanics. Many of these experiments involved &quot;light.&quot; In this lab activity we will explore light at a deeper level.<br /> <br /> ==Introduction==<br /> - Review of emission spectra using the photodiode array detector, including Rydberg equation.<br /> <br /> ==Examples==<br /> [[Stained_Glass|Transmission of Light Through Stained Glass]]<br /> <br /> [[Sunglasses_UV|Sunglasses blocking UV light]]<br /> <br /> [[IPhone_Night_Shift|iPhone Night Shift]]<br /> <br /> [[Emission_Spectra_of_Different_Metals|Emission Spectra of Different Metals]]<br /> <br /> [[Submerge_Christmas_light_in_liquid_nitrogen|Submerge Christmas light in liquid nitrogen]]<br /> <br /> [[Laser_Cutter_Emission_Spectra|Laser cutter emission spectra]]<br /> <br /> [[Emission_intensity_of_mercury_lamp|Emission intensity of mercury lamp]]<br /> <br /> [[Laser_Through_Fluorescence|Laser Through Fluorescence]]<br /> <br /> [[Dental_curing_devices|Dental Filling Curing Device]]<br /> <br /> [[Excitation_Emission|Excitation-Emission]]<br /> <br /> [[Riboflavin_in_Orange_Juice|Riboflavin in Orange Juice]]<br /> <br /> [[The_Transmission_of_UV_Light_through_Polarized_Film|The Transmission of UV Light through Polarized Film]]<br /> <br /> [[Photochromic_Lenses|Photochromic Lenses]]<br /> <br /> [[Comparison_of_iPhone_cameras_across_multiple_generations|Comparison of iPhone cameras across multiple generations]]<br /> <br /> [[Light_Emission_Range_of_the_I_phone|Light Emission Range of the iPhone]]<br /> <br /> [[UV_Spectra_of_Sunscreen|UV Spectra of Sunscreen]]</div>

The event will be held on '''Wednesday, December 5, 2018'''. During this fun and festive time, students can have a break from the stresses of finals week, and create some beautiful Christmas ornaments as well as other planned activities. The images below are some of the cool things you can make if you come to this awesome event. <br /> <br /> =Paper/Cardboard/Wood Snowflakes=<br /> <br /> [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOrMxyCYIcM laser cut paper snowflakes]<br /> <br /> <br /> =Flexible Tree Ornaments=<br /> <br /> [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1222523 Link to Thingiverse]<br /> <br /> [[File:2690de715c6ffbca47fff5faada022ee_preview_featured.jpg|300px]]<br /> <br /> <br /> ===How To Get File===<br /> <br /> To get files, click on the link above.

<p>Ecurrens: /* Element Assignment */</p> <hr /> <div>== Chemistry Department Periodic Table of Elements ==<br /> <br /> This wiki page will be used as a centralized means of keeping track of the progress made on our periodic table. <br /> <br /> === Instructions for Using the Laser ===<br /> <br /> Step 1. Turn on laser by turning on the power strip to the left of the laser. You will be able to tell if it is on. You may want to turn on the emergency exhaust for the adjacent fume hood while the laser is in use. <br /> <br /> Step 2. While the laser is initializing, log onto the computer.<br /> <br /> Step 3. Click on the RetinaEngrave3D program. Click on the Generation 5 Hobby 20x12&quot; laser.<br /> <br /> Step 4. Home the laser by pressing the home button on the laser. <br /> <br /> [[File:LaserInstructionsHome.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 5. Put a piece of wood in the engraving area so that it is laying flat. Use the arrow buttons on the laser to move the guide laser (red dot) to the point that you would like the laser to begin at. Focus the laser for this thickness of material. <br /> <br /> Step 6. Open the Element Template Document, located below. Go to the page containing the element that you would like to print, then hit CTRL+P to print.<br /> <br /> ***Note: Some elements in the template have the atomic mass to the thousandths place... Please change this to the hundredths place before you print so we can stay consistent in our elements!***<br /> <br /> [[:File:Elements_Template.docx]]<br /> <br /> Step 7. Ensure that you select &quot;Full Spectrum Engineering Driver&quot; as your printer and change the print setting to print only the current page. <br /> <br /> Step 8. Click on the RetinaEngrave3D program. You should see that your element has loaded. Click on the Vector Cut tab. Click on the box outlining the element and change it to a color that is not black.<br /> <br /> [[File:laseerinstruct.PNG|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 9. On the right-hand side, you should see options under &quot;Vector Layers&quot; for two colors: the color of the box and the color of the rest of the element. Change the Number of Passes for the Black Color to 0 and the Speed for the Yellow Color to 15. Leave the remaining settings alone. <br /> <br /> [[File:Laserinstruct copy.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 10. Still on the right-hand side, you should see an option for &quot;Raster Speed&quot;. Change this to 50. <br /> <br /> [[File:updatelaserin.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 11. Towards the top-middle portion of the screen, you should see an option called Vector Mode. Change this to Raster then Vector. You should also change the resolution to 1000x1000 dpi. <br /> <br /> [[File:laserinstructions.PNG|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 12. Hit the Start Job button. (This looks like a play button.) The laser should start engraving your wood! Keep an eye on the laser while it is engraving, as there is a potential fire risk whenever we engrave.<br /> <br /> [[File:laserinstructions2.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 13. Enjoy your newly engraved element! If you are finished engraving, turn off the laser. If not, you can repeat the process beginning with step 5.<br /> <br /> ===Element Assignment===<br /> <br /> Feel free to edit this section and type your name next to the element that you have contributed to our periodic table. <br /> <br /> <br /> 1 Hydrogen H '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 2 Helium He '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 3 Lithium Li '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 4

<p>Ecurrens: /* Element Assignment */</p> <hr /> <div>== Chemistry Department Periodic Table of Elements ==<br /> <br /> This wiki page will be used as a centralized means of keeping track of the progress made on our periodic table. <br /> <br /> === Instructions for Using the Laser ===<br /> <br /> Step 1. Turn on laser by turning on the power strip to the left of the laser. You will be able to tell if it is on. You may want to turn on the emergency exhaust for the adjacent fume hood while the laser is in use. <br /> <br /> Step 2. While the laser is initializing, log onto the computer.<br /> <br /> Step 3. Click on the RetinaEngrave3D program. Click on the Generation 5 Hobby 20x12&quot; laser.<br /> <br /> Step 4. Home the laser by pressing the home button on the laser. <br /> <br /> [[File:LaserInstructionsHome.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 5. Put a piece of wood in the engraving area so that it is laying flat. Use the arrow buttons on the laser to move the guide laser (red dot) to the point that you would like the laser to begin at. Focus the laser for this thickness of material. <br /> <br /> Step 6. Open the Element Template Document, located below. Go to the page containing the element that you would like to print, then hit CTRL+P to print.<br /> <br /> ***Note: Some elements in the template have the atomic mass to the thousandths place... Please change this to the hundredths place before you print so we can stay consistent in our elements!***<br /> <br /> [[:File:Elements_Template.docx]]<br /> <br /> Step 7. Ensure that you select &quot;Full Spectrum Engineering Driver&quot; as your printer and change the print setting to print only the current page. <br /> <br /> Step 8. Click on the RetinaEngrave3D program. You should see that your element has loaded. Click on the Vector Cut tab. Click on the box outlining the element and change it to a color that is not black.<br /> <br /> [[File:laseerinstruct.PNG|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 9. On the right-hand side, you should see options under &quot;Vector Layers&quot; for two colors: the color of the box and the color of the rest of the element. Change the Number of Passes for the Black Color to 0 and the Speed for the Yellow Color to 15. Leave the remaining settings alone. <br /> <br /> [[File:Laserinstruct copy.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 10. Still on the right-hand side, you should see an option for &quot;Raster Speed&quot;. Change this to 50. <br /> <br /> [[File:updatelaserin.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 11. Towards the top-middle portion of the screen, you should see an option called Vector Mode. Change this to Raster then Vector. You should also change the resolution to 1000x1000 dpi. <br /> <br /> [[File:laserinstructions.PNG|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 12. Hit the Start Job button. (This looks like a play button.) The laser should start engraving your wood! Keep an eye on the laser while it is engraving, as there is a potential fire risk whenever we engrave.<br /> <br /> [[File:laserinstructions2.png|400px]]<br /> <br /> Step 13. Enjoy your newly engraved element! If you are finished engraving, turn off the laser. If not, you can repeat the process beginning with step 5.<br /> <br /> ===Element Assignment===<br /> <br /> Feel free to edit this section and type your name next to the element that you have contributed to our periodic table. <br /> <br /> <br /> 1 Hydrogen H '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 2 Helium He '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 3 Lithium Li '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 4 Beryllium Be '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 5 Boron B '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 6 Carbon C '''- Brandi Yoder'''<br /> <br /> 7 Nitrogen N '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 8 Oxygen O '''- Brandon Allen''' <br /> <br /> 9 Fluorine F '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 10 Neon Ne '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 11 Sodium Na '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 12 Magnesium Mg '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 13 Aluminum Al '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 14 Silicon Si '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 15 Phosphorus P '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 16 Sulfur S '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 17 Chlorine Cl '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 18 Argon Ar '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 19 Potassium K '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 20 Calcium Ca '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 21 Scandium Sc '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 22 Titanium Ti '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 23 Vanadium V '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 24 Chromium Cr '''- Rachel Book-REDO'''<br /> <br /> 25 Manganese Mn '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 26 Iron Fe '''- Brandon Allen'''<br /> <br /> 27 Cobalt Co '''- Antonetta Axup'''<br /> <br /> 28 Nickel Ni'''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 29 Copper Cu'''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 30 Zinc Zn '''Mohammad'''<br /> <br /> 31 Gallium Ga<br /> <br /> 32 Germanium Ge '''Seth Croslow'''<br /> <br /> 33 Arsenic As '''Seth Croslow<br /> <br /> 34 Selenium Se '''- Selene claims, will do'''<br /> <br /> 35 Bromine Br '''- Brandi Yoder'''<br /> <br /> 36 Krypton Kr<br /> <br /> 37 Rubidium Rb '''-Emily claims, will do'''<br /> <br /> 38 Strontium Sr<br /> <br /> 39 Yttrium Y '''- Brandi Yoder'''<br /> <br /> 40 Zirconium Zr '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 41 Niobium Nb '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 42 Molybdenum Mo '''- Antonetta Axup'''<br /> <br /> 43 Technetium Tc '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 44 Ruthenium Ru '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 45 Rhodium Rh'''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 46 Palladium Pd'''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 47 Silver Ag'''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 48 Cadmium Cd'''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 49 Indium In<br /> <br /> 50 Tin Sn<br /> <br /> 51 Antimony Sb '''- Annie claimed, will do'''<br /> <br /> 52 Tellurium Te '''- Emily Currens'''<br /> <br /> 53 Iodine I<br /> <br /> 54 Xenon Xe<br /> <br /> 55 Cesium Cs '''- Emily claims, will do'''<br /> <br /> 56 Barium Ba<br /> <br /> 57 Lanthanum La '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 58 Cerium Ce<br /> <br /> 59 Praseodymium Pr<br /> <br /> 60 Neodymium Nd<br /> <br /> 61 Promethium Pm<br /> <br /> 62 Samarium Sm<br /> <br /> 63 Europium Eu<br /> <br /> 64 Gadolinium Gd<br /> <br /> 65 Terbium Tb<br /> <br /> 66 Dysprosium Dy<br /> <br /> 67 Holmium Ho '''- Annie claims, will do'''<br /> <br /> 68 Erbium Er<br /> <br /> 69 Thulium Tm<br /> <br /> 70 Ytterbium Yb '''- Brandi claims, will do'''<br /> <br /> 71 Lutetium Lu<br /> <br /> 72 Hafnium Hf '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 73 Tantalum Ta '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 74 Tungsten W '''- Rachel Book'''<br /> <br /> 75 Rhenium Re<br /> <br /> 76 Osmium Os<br /> <br /> 77 Iridium Ir<br /> <br /> 78 Platinum Pt '''- Laura Sanchez'''<br /> <br /> 79 Gold Au'''- Brittney Book'''<br /> <br /> 80 Mercury Hg<br /> <br /> 81 Thallium Tl<br /> <br /> 82 Lead Pb<br /> <br /> 83 Bismuth Bi<br /> <br /> 84 Polonium Po<br /> <br /> 85 Astatine At<br /> <br /> 86 Radon Rn<br /> <br /> 87 Francium Fr '''-Emily claims, will do&quot;<br /> <br /> 88 Radium Ra<br /> <br /> 89 Actinium Ac<br /> <br /> 90 Thorium Th<br /> <br /> 91 Protactinium Pa<br /> <br /> 92 Uranium U '''- Laura Sanchez'''<br /> <br /> 93 Neptunium Np '''- Laura Sanchez'''<br /> <br /> 94 Plutonium Pu '''-Emily Currens'''<br /> <br /> 95 Americium Am '''-Emily Currens'''<br /> <br /> 96 Curium Cm<br /> <br /> 97 Berkelium Bk<br /> <br /> 98 Californium Cf<br /> <br /> 99 Einsteinium Es<br /> <br /> 100 Fermium Fm<br /> <br /> 101 Mendelevium Md<br /> <br /> 102 Nobelium No<br /> <br /> 103 Lawrencium Lr<br /> <br /> 104 Rutherfordium Rf<br /> <br /> 105 Dubnium Db<br /> <br /> 106 Seaborgium Sg<br /> <br /> 107 Bohrium Bh<br /> <br /> 108 Hassium Hs<br /> <br /> 109 Meitnerium Mt<br /> <br /> 110 Darmstadtium Ds<br /> <br /> 111 Roentgenium Rg<br /> <br /> 112 Copernicium Cn<br /> <br /> 113 Nihonium Nh<br /> <br /> 114 Flerovium Fl<br /> <br /> 115 Moscovium Mc<br /> <br /> 116 Livermorium Lv<br /> <br /> 117 Tennessine Ts<br /> <br /> 118 Oganesson Og</div>

My objective is to determine what reactions are responsible for bread aroma and to identify aromatic compounds that are produced. The GC/MS will be used in this study to produce different chromatograms and spectra for me to analyze various gas samples collected from dough and baked bread. I am studying the similarities and differences between different yeast strains that I will be using and how they affect the bread making process. The effects of the yeast and the Maillard reaction toward the bread samples will be compared to see if these two reactions produce different compounds. Other types of dough and their chromatograms and spectra will be compared to the bread dough and baked bread data. By finding these aromatic compounds produced during the bread making process, it is possible to improve the quality of bread such as its flavor or texture and the overall bread making process. This semester, I am planning on obtaining more standard data for compounds I am detecting in my samples through liquid injections. I would like to perform several extractions of the bread I bake so that I could collect a liquid sample that could be used for liquid injections.
