| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are the active ingredients of soaps? | anions of fatty acids |
| Amphiphilic | A molecule with a polar, water-soluble group attached to a non-polar water-insoluble hydrocarbon chain. |
| Hydrophilic | Water loving |
| Hydrophobic | water repelling |
| Micelles | roughly spherical structures with the heads pointing outward in aqueous systems |
| Saponification | Separates the fatty acids from the glycerol. |
| Hydrolysis | Bond is broken by the addition of a water molecule. |
| KOH | Softer soap |
| NaOH | Harder soap |
| Saturated oil | More solidified |
| Unsaturated oil | more liquid soap. The double bonds of the fatty acids make kinks in fatty acid chains that make it more difficult to pack the molecules into a solid. |
| Step 1 | Heat plant oils to 65 degrees Celcius |
| Step 2 | Measure 60ml of DI water into 2 beakers |
| Step 3 | weigh out .52 moles of NaOH and KOH |
| Step 4 | Slowly add the base to each beaker of water. Stir until completely dissolved. (temp will rise as solution dissolves) |
| Step 5 | wait for NaOH and KOH to cool to body temp. |
| Step 6 | Highly saturated mixture (melted palm oil, melted coconut oil, olive oil.) Less Saturated Mixture (melted coconut oil, olive oil) |
| Step 7 | Add bases to mixtures and stir for 15 minutes |
| Step 8 | Add color and fragrance |
| Step 9 | Pour into molds |
| Step 10 | Wrap soap in paper towel to "cure" pH will change from alkaline to neutral |
| Vegetative Propagation medium contains: | Minerals, vitamins, energy source, hormones, solidifying agent |
| Lenticels | Little dots in internodes that conduct oxygen into woody tissues. |
| What plastid is a starch Grain found in? | Leucoplast |
| Center of a starch grain | hilum |
| circles in a starch grain | concentric rings |
| Sclereids | protect plants from chewing animals, look like crystals |
| How can you tell if a cell has a secondary wall? | Red stains lignin which coats the secondary wall. |
| Helical vessel element | long cell with striped pattern |
| Pitted vessel element | Solid red with little white holes. |
| Sieve plates are made of ____ | Piths |
