Anthrone reagent is prepared in concentrated sulfuric acid. Adding reagents to acid causes immediate dissociation of the reagent and releases heat. If your solution weren't cold, it could generate enough heat to blow out of the flask or bottle.

Why does the oxidase reagent need to be fresh?

The oxidase reagent needs to be fresh because it contains the enzyme cytochrome c oxidase, which can degrade over time, leading to false-negative results if it is not active. Using fresh reagent ensures the accuracy of the test results.

If fat is present using biuret reagent turns what color?

Biuret reagent turns from light blue to purple in the presence of proteins or peptides, but it does not change color in the presence of fats. Fats and oils are not detected by biuret reagent.


What is the limiting reagent when 150.0g of nitrogen react with 32.1 g of hydrogen?

To determine the limiting reagent, calculate the moles of each reactant: 150.0g nitrogen is 5.36 moles and 32.1g hydrogen is 31.8 moles. Using the balanced chemical equation, you can see that nitrogen is the limiting reagent because it will be completely consumed before all the hydrogen is reacted.


A dry and clean spatula is used to spoon out small amount of solid from a reagent bottle?

Using a dry and clean spatula helps prevent contamination of the reagent. Spooning out small amounts of solid ensures accurate measurement and avoids waste of reagent. Remember to close the reagent bottle tightly after use to maintain its integrity.


Which reagent is limiting cyclopentadiene or maleic anhydride?

To determine the limiting reagent, calculate the moles of each reactant using their respective masses and molar masses. Compare the moles of each reactant to the stoichiometry of the reaction. The reagent that produces the least amount of product based on stoichiometry is the limiting reagent.

List two advantages in using the clinitest reagent in preference to Benedict's reagent?

The Clinitest reagent is a self test so it does not need to be performed in a hospital setting or by a nurse or doctor. The Clinitest reagent has proven to be more accurate than the Benedict's reagent.


What should you do when you have finished using a reagent?

After using a reagent, you should securely close the container to prevent spills or contamination. Store the reagent according to the manufacturer's instructions, making sure to label it with the date it was opened and any other relevant information. Dispose of any waste following proper laboratory protocols.
