Abstract

This research aimed to determine the differences of chemistry learning outcome through the implementation of scramble type of cooperative learning model and think-talk-write (TTW) type in teaching atomic structure at class XI of SMA Negeri 1 Pamona Selatan. This research was a quasi-experiment with a non-randomized pretest-posttest control group design. It was conducted by arranging two groups in which class XI Natural Science 1 as experimental group 1 (n = 21) and class XI Natural Science 2 as experimental group 2 (n = 20). The data of the research were analyzed using a one-party t-test statistic with the prerequisite test, normality test, and homogeneity. The result of data analysis obtained, X̅1 value of chemistry learning on the students of experimental class 1 was 79.86 (SD = 7.15), whereas in the experimental class 2 students X̅2 value was 73.95 (SD = 8. 26). The result of hypothesis testing was obtained t > t1 - α was 2.55> 1.68 with significant level (α = 0.05) and degrees of freedom = 42. This showed that Ho was rejected and Ha was accepted so that it can be concluded that there were differences in chemistry learning outcome through the implementation of scramble type of cooperative learning model and think-talk-write (TTW) type in teaching atomic structure at class XI of SMA Negeri 1 Pamona Selatan.

The study used one group pretest-posttest design. The instruments were lesson plans, critical thinking tests, students' worksheets, and validated observation sheets. Data of critical thinking abilities were analyzed using rubrics with three indicators, i.e. interpretation, analysis, and inference. Results of data analysis on students' critical thinking skills at the pretest on each indicators in Experiment class I were 25.84, 11.13, and 2.44%, respectively; while in class II were 23.51, 1.38, and 0%, respectively. The posttest in Experiment class I were 69.94, 61.13, and 53.51%, respectively, while in class II were 79.55, 48.61, and 49.07%, respectively. The average of students' critical thinking skills ability in experiment class I was 61.02%, and class II was 61.47%. Both of them were in the moderate category. This study concludes that students' critical thinking skills ability with the implementation of SAVI learning model is in a good category. The average of students' critical thinking skills ability in experiment class I was 61.02%, and in experiment class II is 61.47%. Both of them were in the moderate critical thinking category. This study concludes that students' critical thinking skills ability with the implementation of SAVI learning model is in a good category.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine cyanide contents in cassava leaves (Manihot esculenta Crantz) based on boiling time with the formation of hydrindantin complex using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The variation of boiling time was 0, 5, 10, and 15 minutes respectively. The cyanide content was prepared by extracting the sample using water for 2 hours. Then the sample was distilled to obtain a distillate that containing cyanide. Determination of cyanide was carried out by reacting samples containing cyanide with 1% ninhydrin and 0.5% Na2CO3, then adding 1 M NaOH to form blue hydrindantin compounds in an alkaline condition. Blue hydrindantin compounds formed were analyzed by spectrophotometry at a maximum wavelength of 590 nm. The results showed that cyanide contents in cassava leaves based on boiling time 0, 5, 10, and 15 minutes respectively were 20.73 ppm, 13.92 ppm, 9.18 ppm, and 3.38 ppm. The longer the cassava leaves were boiled, the better it was to be consumed because it will significantly reduce cyanide contents.

Abstract

Water hardness will have a destructive impact if consumed in a long time. Hard water contains high calcium contents, including inorganic calcium. The accumulation of calcium in the body at a specific time causing kidney stones, and some will settle in the blood that causing calcification which can be fatal to health. An alternative is needed to reduce the level of water hardness. This study aimed to determine the effect of using citric acid on citrus hystrix peels on water hardness. Citric acid was obtained through the maceration extraction method from citrus hystrix. The citric acid extract was made into several concentrations of 50, 100, and 150 ppm then added to hard water. Determination of decreased total water hardness after adding citric acid used method complexometry titration. The results of the analysis show that citric acid is able to reduce water hardness of the sample water from Palu city area.

Abstract

Rice husk is one of the by-products of the rice milling process that can be used as activated charcoal to adsorb metal ions. This study aimed to determine the optimum pH and adsorption capacity of Cd(II) ions by activated charcoal made of rice husk using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method. Determination of the optimum pH adsorption of activated charcoal was carried out by varying the pH of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Based on the analysis results of the optimum pH for metal adsorption, pH 7 with percent absorbed metal 99.94%, while adsorption of Cd(II) ions using activated charcoal was carried out with several variations of concentration to study adsorption isotherm. The adsorption isotherm model of activated charcoal adsorption followed the Langmuir isotherm model. The results of this analysis obtained that the maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of Cd(II) ions were 2.068 mg Cd/g.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine lycopene contents and the antioxidant activity of katokkon chili extract. The extraction process of katokkon chili used the maceration method with the mixture of n-hexane : acetone : ethanol (2:1:1). The concentrated extract of katokkon chili was obtained through the evaporator process at a temperature of 40 ˚C. The analysis process used a UV-Vis spectrophotometer in which the absorbance reading was at λ = 472 nm. The average content of lycopene in katokkon chili extract was 1.457 mg/100g. Testing the antioxidant activity of katokkon chili extract used the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) method with positive control the vitamin C. The absorbance readings for the antioxidant activity test were at λ = 517 nm. The test results showed that the antioxidant power of katokkon and vitamin C extracts in reducing DPPH free radicals had a similar result which was equally strong. The IC50 value for chili katokkon extract was 13.84 mg/L, and the IC50 value for vitamin C was 5.78 mg/L, so it can be concluded that chili katokkon can be an alternative source of natural antioxidants to replace vitamin C.

Abstract

Clove leaf oil (Syzygium aromaticum L.) is obtained from distilling clove leaves. This study aimed to examine the effect of clove leaf oil on the preservation of milkfish meat. Clove leaf oil was obtained by steam distillation and purified by a simple distillation method. The number of microbes was determined using the total plate count (TPC) method, while the organoleptic test used a level of preference for color, smell, texture, and taste. The results showed that the pH and the number of fish meat bacteria at a concentration of 8%, when left for one day, were 6.61 and 2.46 × 10-7 CFU/mL, while the three days was 7.2 and 2.98 × 10-7 CFU/mL, a concentration of 10% in 1 day which was 6.64 and 2.03×10-7 CFU/mL while the three days was 7.25 and 2.54 × 10-7 CFU/mL and a concentration of 12 % in 1 day was 6.67 and 1.83 × 10-7 CFU/mL while three days was 7.57 and 2.07 × 10-7 CFU/mL, besides that from organoleptic test data the panelist preference rate was more significant in the concentration of 12 % then the concentration of 10  and 8 %, respectively. The results showed that at a concentration of 12%, it was a good concentration to be used as preservation compared to a concentration of 10 % and a concentration of 8%, both for a 1-day and a 3-days. This shows that the higher the concentration of clove leaf oil, the greater the ability to preserve fish meat.
