About this document

Photosynthesis Experiment Guide by RichardDumlao is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document outlines an experiment to identify the variables involved in photosynthesis. It describes extracting chlorophyll from green leaves by boiling them in denatured alcohol. This causes the green chlorophyll to dissolve out, showing why leaves appear green. Students will observe that boiling a non-green leaf produces no color change. They will identify the variables in photosynthesis like sunlight, water, carbon dioxide and oxygen. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is provided. The assignmen
