For safe use of this product, be sure to read and fully understand this manual as well as the safety precautions, prior to any use. Please keep this manual safely stored for convenient reference. The device is intended for the intermittent measurement and monitoring of human body temperature by consumers in the home. Measuring the body temperature in the ear Scientific studies have shown that the ear is ideally suited to measure the body temperature. The body temperature is controlled by the hypothalamus, the blood vessels of which also supply the eardrum with blood. It is therefore advantageous to measure the body temperature whenever possible in the ear as shown in Fig. 1. Eardrum Hypothalamus Infrared sensor Infrared Fig. 1 rays In this respect, it is important that you apply the correct technique in order to achieve precise and reliable temperature measurements. For this purpose, please read this instruction manual carefully! 4 19.PJN174-14_GA-USA_HHD-Ohrthermometer_DSO364_28.07.14 Montag, 28.

  • Experiment 5: Molar Volume of a Gas (Mg + Hcl)
    1 CHEM 30A EXPERIMENT 5: MOLAR VOLUME OF A GAS (MG + HCL) Learning Outcomes Upon completion of this lab, the student will be able to: 1) Demonstrate a single replacement reaction. 2) Calculate the molar volume of a gas at STP using experimental data. 3) Calculate the molar mass of a metal using experimental data. Introduction Metals that are above hydrogen in the activity series will displace hydrogen from an acid and produce hydrogen gas. Magnesium is an example of a metal that is more active than hydrogen in the activity series. The reaction between magnesium metal and aqueous hydrochloric acid is an example of a single replacement reaction (a type of redox reaction). The chemical equation for this reaction is shown below: Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) è MgCl2(aq) + H2(g) Equation 1 When the reaction between the metal and the acid is conducted in a eudiometer, the volume of the hydrogen gas produced can be easily determined. In the experiment described below magnesium metal will be reacted with an excess of hydrochloric acid and the volume of hydrogen gas produced at the experimental conditions will be determined. According to Avogadro’s law, the volume of one mole of any gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP = 273 K and 1 atm) is 22.4 L. Two important Gas Laws are required in order to convert the experimentally determined volume of hydrogen gas to that at STP. 1. Dalton’s law of partial pressures. 2. Combined gas law. Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures According to Dalton’s law of partial pressures in a mixture of non-reacting gases, the total pressure exerted is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.

Methods: Three men and three women aged 21e79 years (average, 55 years) were treated for defects of the nasal ala and upper lip that resulted from cancer (n Z 4) and trauma (n Z 2). Unaffected contralateral subunits dictated the flap design. The upper lip subunit was excised and replaced with a nasolabial flap. The flap, depending on the contralateral reference, determined accurate alar base position. A forehead flap resurfaced or replaced the nasal ala. Autologous cartilage was used in every case to fortify the forehead flap reconstruction. Results: Patients were followed for 25.6 months (range, 1e4 years).

  • Use of Laboratory Equipement
    USE OF LABORATORY EQUIPEMENT C. Laboratory Thermometers Most thermometers are based upon the principle that liquids expand when heated. Most common thermometers use mercury or colored alcohol as the liquid. These thermometers are constructed as that a uniform-diameter capillary tube surmounts a liquid reservoir. To calibrate a thermometer, one defines two reference points, normally the freezing point of water (0°C, 32°F) and the boiling point of water (100°C, 212°F) at 1 tam of pressure (1 tam = 760 mm Hg). Once these points are marked on the capillary, its length is then subdivided into uniform divisions called degrees. There are 100° between these two points on the Celsius (°C, or centigrade) scale and 180° between those two points on the Fahrenheit (°F) scale. °F = 1.8 °C + 32 The Thermometer and Its Calibration This section describes the proper technique for checking the accuracy of your thermometer. These measurements will show how measured temperatures (read from thermometer) compare with true temperatures (the boiling and freezing points of water). The freezing point of water is 0°C; the boiling point depends upon atmospheric pressure but at sea level it is 100°C. Option 1: Place approximately 50 mL of ice in a 250-mL beaker and cover the ice with distilled water. Allow about 15 min for the mixture to come to equilibrium and then measure and record the temperature of the mixture. Theoretically, this temperature is 0°C. Option 2: Set up a 250-mL beaker on a wire gauze and iron ring. Fill the beaker about half full with distilled water.
