“碘化鋅”產率變變變---溶劑對產率的影響

The research mainly discuss the influence on the rate of zinc iodine with different solution as catalytic agent. We use water, acid water, ethanol methanol acid ethanol, and acid methanol and so on as different solution to participate in the process of an equation: Zn+I2 → ZnI2 to work out the variation of the product's amount. Besides, we also change the proportion of Zinc and Iodine to discuss the difference between the proportion of reactant and the product's amount. The result shows that the product of this equation is ZnI2 not Zn(I3)2. Ethanol and methanol have the same effect as water to accelerate the process of the equation. We find out that this reaction get higher product's amount in acid condition. Also, put the mass Zinc with the mass iodine can get higher product's amount, Furthermore, acid in specific range (0.01M—1.00M), the denser the acid is, the higher product's amount we get. But how the water as catalytic agent work in the reaction is the direction we can research deeply in the days to come. 鋅和碘作用生成碘化鋅的反應,是用水作為催化劑,然而一小滴水卻使這個反應劇烈進 行,我們嘗試了多種和水具有相同作用的催化劑,由於反應時間極短不易測量,我們考慮由 產率部分著手,讓原本只需一小滴的水〈催化劑〉改為此反應的溶劑,計算其產率的變化。 實驗分為三部分,第一部份先是改變不同的溶劑,讓鋅和碘在不同溶劑〈水、酸化水、乙醇、酸化乙醇、甲醇、酸化甲醇〉下反應,計算出產率的變化,我們發現在酸中的產率的確較不加酸者來得高。第二部分我們改變加入鋅和碘的量,改變鋅和碘的比例,讓鋅由過量到成為此反應的限量試劑,觀察其產率的變化,我們發現碘作為限量試劑較鋅作為限量試劑的產率高。由於此反應在酸中產率較高,但酸的濃度高低是否又會影響產率呢?我們繼續第三部分的實驗,改變酸的濃度,讓此反應在不同的酸化水濃度的溶劑下反應,討論產率和酸濃度的關係,我們發現在一定範圍內〈0.01M~0.5M〉,酸的濃度越高,產率亦越高。 實驗方法是將鋅和碘置入同一試管中反應,並使其在不同溶劑中反應,接著離心,將碘化鋅水溶液與未反應完的反應物分離,將所得的碘化鋅水溶液使用結晶法得到碘化鋅晶體,秤重並計算其產率。

臉上真的有蟲嗎?~揭開蠕型?的真面目

I’ve heard a report on the internet that there are mites on the face, even a clean face, and I took an interest in doing a research. First, I found that on the face is Demodex, which lives and depends on human beings; besides, nearly seventy percent of people have these mites on their faces. To know more about the habit of Demodex, I sampled forty people of both sexes and different ages. The analysis, not correlating with sex and times of face washing, showed that more mites are found on the forehead than on other parts of the face, and there is more probability to find Demodex on the face of those who are older, those who have oily skin, and those who suffer from acne. I also observed that these mites are photonegative, often gather together in the hair follicles, and feed on sebum. Moved from the human body, Demodex is livelier in sesame oil than in other kinds of oils, but its life ends in about eight to ten hours and dissolutes at last. In addition, I tried to devitalize Demodex by various kinds of medicine, cleansers and cosmetics, but only those containing sulfer, eau de parfum, and the essence of rosemary or lavender are efficacious. 網路傳聞乾淨的臉上也有蟲,引起我探索的興趣,查探後發現是和人類片利共生的毛囊 蠕形?和皮脂蠕形?,初步調查顯示近70%的人臉上都有蟲。為了更了解蟲的習性,以年齡 與性別區分共在40 人臉上採集樣本,統整結果得知,額頭比其他臉上部位多、年齡越大、膚 質油的發現機率較大,但不受面皰多寡、性別、洗臉次數等影響;觀察後發現蠕形?以人類 的皮脂為食,經常群聚在人體毛囊中,離開人體後在芝麻香油中活動力較佳,但約8~10 小時 後就死亡分解導致無法繼續觀察其生活史,對光有明顯的負趨光性,最後試著用各種藥品減 低蟲的生命力,以薰衣草、迷迭香精油、毒藥香水和蜜花沉澱硫等較有效。

金字塔附近的流體力學效應

陸地上的金字塔無時無刻沒有受到氣體的包覆,這個實驗透過風洞模擬金字塔模型,在流體中的壓力變化,並藉由煙線來觀察流體的移動情形,可具體看到當流體經過物體週遭時流場的改變。經由測量壓力,可更深入的探討風速與壓力的關係。在實驗中,可發現當流體迎面而來,在金字塔後方形成的流場變化中,以渦流最易觀察;且透過壓力的測量,發現模型的前、後方,會有明顯的壓差,會對模型造成力矩,可能會使金字塔結構不穩定。越往金字塔上方壓差越小,因此其受阻力所產生的合力矩應較同底面積、同高的長方體小,故金字塔可以長久在沙漠中屹立不搖。此外,流體流過模型兩側會產生分離的情況,分離點的位置會影響渦流區的大小;一般而言,分離點發生在物體的越後方,尾流的尺寸越小,壓差所造成的阻力越低,實驗中發現流速對分離點的位置影響不大,金字塔的擺放形狀卻會對分離點的位置產生明顯的影響,所以越流線型的物體,其受到壓差所產生的阻力越小。希望透過以上的研究,能夠對金字塔周圍複雜的流場有更深入的了解。The pyramid on land is constantly surrounded by gas. Using the wind tunnel, we can investigate the distribution of pressure surrounding the model of pyramid; furthermore, we can discuss about the relationship between pressure and wind velocity. In addition, with the smoke wire, we can visually observe the dynamic flow filed. In our experiment, we discovered that when fluid comes, there will be obvious difference of pressure between the front and the back of the pyramidal model, causing a torque to the model. At higher parts of the model, there is less difference of the pressure, so the resulting torques of a pyramid should be less than that of a cuboid. Therefore, a pyramid can stand in the desert for a long time. Besides, when the fluid flows through the two sides of the model, it will separate, and the position of the separation points will influence the size of the turbulence area. Generally speaking, the farther the separation points are to the back, the smaller the size of the turbulence area, and the less the drag caused by the difference of pressure. With the study above, I expect to have more understanding about the complex flow field of pyramid.

敬"屑"不敏 --- 皮屑芽孢菌生長之探討

由於本身有頭皮屑的煩惱,在使用各種洗髮精之後,一方面覺得大部分的洗髮精效果不是很好,另一方面也擔心抗屑洗髮精的成分對人體有害。所以有了研究頭皮屑的念頭,希望能找出減少頭皮屑的方法。\r 在與幾位皮膚科專門醫師討論後,醫師們都不建議在直接人體上進行減少頭皮屑的實驗。於是我們將研究的重點放在〝皮屑芽孢菌生長之探討〞,希望對皮屑芽孢菌有更深入的瞭解。除了洗髮精之外,我們也將研究各種廣為流傳的民間偏方是否能有效抑制皮屑芽孢菌生長。在這些民間偏方的蒐集可兩大類:一類是在日常生活中可以很容易取得的物質,如鹽、醋、大蒜、生薑、洋蔥等;另一類則是台灣特有的物質,如無患子、茶籽粉、竹醋液等。\r 我們希望透過研究方法能瞭解\r (一) 溫度、濕度、酸鹼度、油脂對皮屑芽孢菌生長的影響\r (二) 哪些物質可以抑制皮屑芽孢菌的生長\r (三) 不同稀釋濃度的物質抑制皮屑芽孢菌的生長的效果\r 為了避免繁複的數量計算(如菌數計算),我們採用較多的對照比較(如抑制圈大小)。同時,我們設計了一個簡易的觀察與測量方法(稀釋法與抑菌指數),來比較各種民間偏方\r 的抑菌效果。\r 研究與實驗分為四大項進行:\r (一) 基本生長環境之探討:溫度、濕度、酸鹼度、油脂對皮屑芽孢菌生長的影響\r (二) 民間偏方抑制效果之探討:鹽、醋、大蒜、生薑、洋蔥是否能抑制抑制皮屑芽孢菌的生長\r (三) 民間偏方抑制效果之比較(抑制圈):比較各種物質的抑制圈大小\r (四) 民間偏方抑制效果之比較(稀釋法):利用抑菌指數來比較各種物質的抑菌能力\r 經過研究,我們所蒐集到的民間偏方都有某種程度的抑菌效果,大致可以分為強效(蒜液、竹醋液、茶樹精油)、有效(食鹽水、食用醋、洋蔥液、檜木芬多精、茶籽粉)及普通(薑汁、無患子)三種效果。\r \r Since I have the serious dandruff problem, I try to seek, except the shampoo, the natural materials to decrease the dandruff. After consulting with some dermatologists, they suggest I can focus my research on the “Malassezia Furfur”, which is the major bacteria causing the dandruff.\r This project is designed for finding the materials which have the most powerful inhibition capability for the “Malassezia Furfur”. I collect some folk prescriptions from the internet that salt, vinegar, garlic and onion can decrease the dandruff. The problem is “Do they have good inhibition capability for the Malassezia Furfur too?”\r The goals of the research are as followed.\r (1) The exploration of the basic environmental factors for the growth of Malassezia Furfur, such as temperature, humidity, acidity & alkalinity.\r (2) What kinds of material have the good inhibition capability?\r (3) The comparison of inhibition capability of the different material with different consistency.\r We especially design a method called “Dilution metering and index” to compare the inhibition capability of the different material. By using very simple observation, this method will transfer the simple “Qualitative Analysis” to the result of complicated “Quantitative Analysis”. The “Dilution metering and index” is the major achievement of this project, and it is also the good way for the projects which are not equipped with the precision instrument for bacteria inhibition capability measurement.

豆類澱粉?抑制劑之研究與應用

豆類澱粉?抑制劑具害蟲防治與血糖調節之功效。本研究從台灣五種豆類中進行澱粉?抑制劑活性初篩,篩選出四季豆對麗蠅的澱粉?有明顯的抑制效果,粗萃後分離純化出單一蛋白質,經胺基酸定序結果得到兩個多?片段-VGLDFVLV 與TETSFNIDG , 與已發表文獻比對推測為腰豆澱粉?抑制劑—αAI-1。經測試發現此抑制劑在85℃時仍具備抑制果蠅澱粉?之活性,為一熱安定性蛋白質,其抑制作用受pH 值影響很大,在偏酸性環境下的效果最好,且其抑制作用具特異性,可明顯抑制果蠅、入侵紅火蟻、白蟻、蟑螂及麵包蟲等昆蟲的澱粉?活性。在調節血糖方面,本研究利用豬胰臟澱粉?進行抑制活性測試,篩選出四季豆、花豆與黑豆對豬胰臟澱粉?有明顯的抑制效果,進一步利用Wistar 品系大鼠,進行豆類澱粉?抑制劑降血糖功效之活體試驗,將四季豆、花豆和黑豆粗萃經濃縮乾燥後餵食大鼠,發現花豆、黑豆在第一小時具有顯著抑制血糖增加效果;四季豆、黑豆在第三小時血糖回升,花豆仍可維持較低血糖濃度。此初步結果顯示,花豆粗萃物可能具備減緩消化吸收作用,具應用潛能,其確切分子作用機制值得深入探究。Amylase inhibitors can be applied in pest control and glucose adjustments. The study screens Phaseolus vulgaris from five Taiwan’s beans that has the most significant inhibition towards Chrysomia megacephala. The protein was isolated and sequenced two fragments, -VGLDFVLV and TETSFNIDG, highly homologous to that of αAI-1 from Phaseolus vulgaris. The pure protein still inhibits the amylase from Drosophila melanogaster at 85℃, suggesting it is thermal-stable. Its activity was specific and was affected by pH, reaching the peak in weak acidic condition. It obviously inhibits amylases from D. melanogaster, Solenopsis invicta, Odontotermes formosanus, Periplaneta Americana Linnaeus, and Alphitobius sp. In addiction, the study points out Phaseolus vulgaris, Phaseolus coccineus L. and Glycine max, which have significant inhibition toward pancreatic amylase. The amylase inhibitors’ functions of decreasing in blood glucose were detected by animal experiments on Wistar rats. The rats fed with the extracts of Phaseolus coccineus L. and Glycine max showed the inhibition of glucose increasing at the first hour, while blood glucose concentration after rats fed with Phaseolus vulgaris and Glycine max increase at the third hour, and blood glucose after rats fed with Phaseolus coccineus L. maintains low. Its premier result indicates that the extract from Phaseolus coccineus L. might postpones digestion and has potential to be applied. According to these results, amylase inhibitors are worthy to further analysis.

空心球的奧秘

上體育課的時候看到同學投空心球(籃球在沒有碰著籃框的情況下進入籃中),覺得好厲害。因此,我們利用相關的數學知識與運動原理來討論籃球投出後的運行軌跡,以及影響其命中率的相關因素。我們得知籃球的運行軌跡是一條拋物線,並求出其二次方程式;並利用標準籃球直徑與籃框直徑找出籃球進入籃框的最小入射角。若要提高命中率,必須考慮籃球投出時的投射角、初速度、籃球投出時的高度以及籃球與籃框水平距離之間的相關影響。此外,我們藉由電腦軟體列出相關數據提供作為實際投籃時的參考,並藉此進一步分析上述因素如何影響籃球運行軌跡以及如何提高投籃的命中率。Those who always shoot nothing but the net in basketball games were always heroes to me. I have being thinking for a long time how to become a person of that kind. For this, we investigated the trajectory of shooting a basketball and the factors to increasing the field goal percentages through our knowledge on mathematics and physics. We have obtained that the trajectory is in fact a parabola and, we further, found its quadratic equation. We also derived the minimal incident angle from the diameters of the standard basketball and hoop as well as the quadratic equation we have found. To raise the field goal percentages, some important factors must be taken into consideration, such as the vertical and horizontal distance between the basketball and the hoop, the incident angle and the initial velocity of shooting. Finally, we provide some concerning data for reference, and analyzed how the important factors we have mentioned above have affected our basketball trajectory and how, of the most importance, to increase the field goal percentages

研究傳統降火氣食品是否具有抗發炎效果

在炎炎夏日總希望來點可以「降火氣」的食品,依據古籍記載某些中藥材具有降火氣的效應,而中醫所謂的降火氣與西醫的抗發炎反應密切相關。本實驗利用巨噬細胞株受到LPS (Lipopolysaccharide,革蘭氏陰性菌細胞壁表面所含有的脂多醣體)刺激後,會分泌發炎介質的現象,再分別加入各項傳統認為可降火氣(以菊花、薏仁、仙草作為樣品)或上火氣(選用龍眼作為樣品)的中藥食材,來評估中藥材對巨噬細胞分泌發炎介質能力的影響。經由實驗,我們發現市售的『降火氣』中藥食材,在適當的濃度下,確實具有降低IL-6、TNF-α 分泌量的能力,但濃度過高時卻會造成細胞凋亡。另外,傳統以水熬煮的方式比冷凍乾燥取得的樣品有更好的降低IL-6、TNF-α 分泌量的能力。 我們期望以此一系列的實驗,來建立篩選『降火氣』食材的抗發炎效用的研究模式,並在後續實驗中可用以篩選出更多具抗發炎效應的中藥材。In summer, people always consider eating some special things to refresh themselves. According to ancient books, there are some Chinese herbal medicines that were recorded to have the function of cooling us down, which is related to anti-inflammation in the Western. Macrophage cell lines can be stimulated by LPS (Lipopolysaccharide) and secrete proinflammatory mediators. Thus, it is often used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of different herbs. In our experiment, we also use macrophage cell lines to test different anti-inflammatory effects between chrysanthemum, Job’s tears and grass jelly. In addition, some Chinese herbs such as longan that can parch us are also tested in our experiment. In our results, we found these herbs that are available indeed have ability to anti-inflame in appropriate consistency; however, high dose does harm to cells. In addition, the samples that are poached in ancient ways have better ability to show the low dose of IL-6 and TNF-α. Finally, we would set up a model to test the anti-inflammatory ability of different herbs that were said to be able to cool us down, and then we could test more herbs in the future.

平面上三點集中度判別法之探討

關於平面上若干點的集中度之定義,一直很少有人予以仔細的探討,因為判別的方法有很多種。本研究是以平面上三點所構成的三角形之三頂點作討論,分別以三角形的面積、周長,內心、外心和重心至三頂點距離,三點的標準差及平均差的概念,作為不同的判別方式,並以動態幾何化版GSP模擬不同的判斷方法做為研究,在利用統計學上的方法,找出哪一種定義方式最為適合、誤差最少的判斷方法。There are many ways to determine the centralness of three dots on a plane; however, no definition study has been applied.

周轉不靈(汽車過彎翻覆原理與對策)

「翻車」事件令人怵目驚心,輕則車毀,重則人亡。減少翻車事件,可減少悲劇的發生。而翻車絕大多數均發生在轉彎的路段,且伴隨著超速發生。因此,本研究乃針對汽車過彎行駛,探討其翻覆的原因以及改進之道 · 本研究乃利用實驗分析法以及理論驗證法進行研究,實驗中變化不同的汽車質量,車軸寬、車身高以及車軸寬/車身高,質量重心寬、高以及寬/高、傾斜度以及迴轉半徑等九種參數 · 於自製的紅外線偵測變頻式可調迴轉模擬機上以八部模型試驗車測試其翻覆轉速,並換算為翻覆速度後逐一分析討論之。經由實驗結果,本研究得到以下結論:一、汽車轉彎翻覆與離心力有關,當離心力大於臨界側向推力時,汽車即翻覆。臨界側向推力公式為 F = mg ( tanθ + K?) / ( l -K? tanθ ) 二、最大容許車速平方與轉彎半徑及質量中心寬高比相乘積成正比;而在定車速下,飲小客許轉彎半徑與質量中心寬高比成反比.前述各項皆與質量大小無關.三、提高轉彎路面傾斜度對防止汽車翻覆有確實的效果。而最佳的過彎防止翻覆方法是降低車行速度,提高轉彎半徑,增加路面外側傾斜度,以及提高汽車質量中心寬高比”四、汽車過彎不致翻覆的最大極限速度 Vc 以及最小轉彎半徑rc分別為 vc=〔 rg ( tan θ + K ?)/ ( l 一 K ? tanθ ) ]; rc =( V2 / g ) ( l 一 K?tanθ ) / ( tanθ + K? ) 五、本實驗所設計紅外線偵測變頻式可調迴轉模擬機,可有效的模擬汽車過彎翻覆,適用於中等學校物理、力學等學科的實驗課程。The accident of overturning a car always results in both destroying the car body and the death of the people. This project is to investigate what factors would have an effect on overturning a car and how to prevent a car from overturning.This project explores the factors by varying the mass of the cars, the distance between axes, the height of the car body, the ratio between the axis distance and the car height, the central gravity, and the declination. We test and record different overturning rotating speeds of eight model cars by a self-made adjustable simulator with a varying frequency infra-red detector. According to the experiment, the following results are obtained. I. The overturning occurrence is as a result of the eccentric force over the critical lateral force. The critical lateral force is F=mg(tanθ +K?)/(l—K?tan θ) 2. The square of allowable maximum speed is in proportion to the product of turning radius and ration of width to height for the center of mass; however, the allowable minimum turning radius is inversely proportional to the ration of width to height for the center of mass under constant vehicle speed. The above inference is independent of the mass of vehicle. 3. Increasing the declination can prevent a car from overturning. 4. The maximum speed for a car turning without overturning is Vc. The minimum turning radius is r. Both are expressed as follows:Vc=[rg(tanθ +K2)/(1—K?tanθ );rc=(’V2/g)( I —K?tanθ )/(tanθ +K?)5. The self-made adjustable simulator with a varying frequency infra-red detector can be used in the experiments of the middle school science curriculum.
