Screenshot Paste a screenshot of the completed Procedure I data run below. Make sure you know how your computer/device saves screenshots. Follow this link to get details on how to take and save a screenshot. Paste screenshot here: TableTop Science – All Rights Reserved 1 Procedure I – Group 1: Known Sample Solutions Complete the table below using your data from Procedure I. For each sample solution (A-E) indicate any color change that occurs when a test solution is added by putting an X in the corresponding table cell. Fill in the last column (Biomolecule Classification) using data found under the Activity Form tab. Hint: The color of a reaction is not an important factor for the exercise outside of indicating that a reaction occurred. Data Table I (Indicate the presence of a reaction with an X in the corresponding table cell) Sample Solution Test Solution 1 Reaction A X B X Test Solution 2 Reaction C Test Solution 3 Reaction Test Solution 4 Reaction Test Solution 5 Reaction Biomolecule Classification Sugar X Starch X Fat D X E X Protein X Amino Acid Observations and Questions [1] Write a hypothesis statement for the experiment you conducted for Procedure I. Answer: [2] Which variable represents the independent variable? What information helped you to come to that decision? What variable represents the dependent variable? What information helped you come to that decision? Answer: 2 TableTop Science – All Rights Reserved [3] Would you characterize this experiment as qualitative or quantitative? What information helped you to come to that decision? Answer: [4] Refer to your completed Data Table I and place the appropriate answer to each of the statements below. Answers: amino acid, starch, fat, sugar or starch, protein or amino acid Statements: Test Solution _____ reacts with Biomolecule(s) 1 Sugar and Starch 2 Starch 3 Fat 4 Protein and Amino Acid 5 Amino Acid TableTop Science – All Rights Reserved 3 Procedure II – Group 2: Unknown Sample Solutions Complete the table below using your data from Procedure II. For each sample solution (A-E) indicate any color change that occurs when a test solution is added by putting an X in the corresponding table cell. Next, use Data Table I to determine the biomolecule classification for each sample solution. Hint: compare the color changes in both tables to make your determinations. Data Table II (Indicate the presence of a reaction with an X in the corresponding table cell) Sample Solution Test Solution 1 Reaction A X Test Solution 2 Reaction Test Solution 3 Reaction Test Solution 4 Reaction X Starch C X D X X Biomolecule Classification Sugar B E Test Solution 5 Reaction X Fat X Protein Amino Acid Observations and Questions [5] In Procedure II, did any of your unknown sample solutions (A, B, C, D, E) contain sugars? If yes, which one? What information helped you to come to that decision? Answer: [6] In Procedure II, did any of your unknown sample solutions (A, B, C, D, E) contain protein? If yes, which one? What information helped you to come to that decision? Answer: 4 TableTop Science – All Rights Reserved [7] Using the laboratory tests in this experiment, were you be able to distinguish amino acids from proteins? Explain why or why not. Answer: [8] Using the laboratory tests in this experiment, were you be able to distinguish between starch and sugar? Explain why or why not. Answer: TableTop Science – All Rights Reserved 5
