Abstract

The use of litmus paper seems wastefull and less environmentally friendly because it is only used once. For schlools that have difficulty getting litmus paper it can be a practicum obstacle to determine the acidity of the sample. In order to anticipate this problem, indicator paper was made using extracts of the telang flower (Clitoria ternatea) and the kencana ungu flower (Ruellia simplex) plant extracts. The purpose of the study was to observe the color changes that occurred in acid-base paper indicator namely KENDI BELANG (Kertas Indikator Bunga Telang) and KENDI BUKACU (Kertas Indikator Bunga Kencana Ungu) samples for a certain period of time. Other physical changes such as color, odor, flexibility and paper fibers were also observed. The research used an experimental method for 30 days. Research using experimental method for 30 days. The telang flowers and the kencana ungu are obtained from the environment around the house and then extracted. Whatman filter paper was macerated in plant extracts of telang flower (Clitoria ternatea) and purple golden flower (Ruellia simplex), with the addition of aquades and 70% alcohol as solvent. KENDI BELANG using 70% alcohol solvent produces the best quality indicator paper, because there is no change in color and other physical changes during observation. While less optimal result was found on KENDI BUKACU using distilled water, because the indicator paper produces an unpleasant odor, slightly stiff, and there was a color gradations in some samples of acids and bases.

Abstract

Learning chemistry requires practicum which functions to enrich understanding of chemical materials. Practical practice should ideally be carried out in a laboratory as a representative place to produce accurate and precise data using validated practical instructions. This study aims to create a chemistry practicum guide that is designed to be carried out at home with facilities around the house so that it can function to train student independence. This research is a product development research in the form of using model Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate (ADDIE). The resulting product was validated by 6 material and media expert validators and then tested limited to 15 chemistry teacher candidate students. The results showed that the practicum instructions obtained an Aikens score of 0.9 from the validator, which means they are valid and feasible to try out. Then after conducting trials and student responses, a response of 86% was obtained in the very good category. Based on the values from the validator and limited trials, these practical instructions can be used by prospective Chemistry teachers in teaching in the classroom and at home.

Abstract

Antibody production is becoming a trend, especially during a pandemic like now, although there have been many developments in antibody production in previous research. Antigen synthesis and characterization is one of the determining factors for the success of antibody production. This research developed a method of antigen characterization using the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) method. The research conducted in these 4 stages begins with antigen synthesis, then continues with antigen characterization using NMR, then antibody production, and the last stage is antibody characterization using the Enzyme Linked ImmunoAssay (ELISA) method. The results of antigen characterization using NMR show that NAS has been perfectly conjugated with BSA and produces a NAS-BSA conjugate. This is shown by the presence of 1 methylene (CH2) olefinic at δH chemical shift of 6.27 ppm with an integral of 4 and having 1 piece of methine (CH) sp2 at δH chemical shift of 5.73 ppm with an integral of 2. NAS-BSA antigens have been shown to successfully produce antibodies. This is shown from the anti-NAS-BSA, NAS, and Acrylamide antibodies that begin to appear in the second, third and fourth boosting (respectively)

Abstract

Acacia leaves have a cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin content of 50.77%. The high content of cellulose can help the formation of hollow fiber structures. The hollow fiber structure makes it possible to carry out greater absorption. This study aims to determine the influence of chemical activator concentration and temperature on the physical activation of hollow carbon fiber characteristics and their ability to adsorb Fe. The synthesis of hollow fiber begins with drying the acacia using sunlight, followed by drying using an oven.  Furthermore, the acacia is grounded and sifted with a 60-mesh sieve. Acacia leaves were chemically activated with concentrations KOH of 0.5, 0.75, and 1 M was carbonized with a temperature of 500°C in a gas environment N2 and continued physical activation with a temperature of 700°C and 750°C using a flow of CO2 gas for 1 hour. The sample was characterized by proximate analysis, SEM, FTIR, and adsorption on Fe. The proximate analysis showed that the water content was 3.5%, ash content was 8.3%, volatile content was 15.4%, and iodine absorption was 761.4 mg/g. The highest Fe metal removal result obtained was 98.8%, with an adsorption capacity of 9,88 mg/g. The results showed that acacia leaf-based hollow carbon fiber has the potential to be an adsorbent to remove ion Fe in solution.

Abstract

Lampung natural zeolite (ZAL) is a potential adsorbent for metal pollutants.However, its adsorption capacity is still low due to the presence of impurities that cover the pores and active sites on its surface. To improve the adsorption performance, especially on soft acid Lewis metals/cations, ZAL needs to be activated and functionalized with organosilanes containing thiol groups (-SH) as soft Lewis bases such as (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (MPTMS). This study aims to determine the physicochemical properties of organosilane-modified natural zeolites. The MPTMS silanization process in ethanol: water (1:1, v/v) media was carried out on ZAL activated with 1 M HCl. Qualitatively, the success of the functionalization can be directly observed from the dispersion of the zeolite in organic and aqueous phases, where the hydrophobicity of the silane-modified zeolite (ZM-EA) increased compared to the natural zeolite. The functional group analysis results showed typical peaks of S-H and C-H at 2554 and 2930 cm-1. MPTMS functionalization produced five peaks of the typical diffraction pattern of clinoptilolite at 2θ: 10,4o; 17,8o; 22,8o; 28,3o; 30,5o; dan 32,4o. SEM-EDX results on ZM-EA showed the presence of a sulfur component of 4.75% (% At) with a Si/Al ratio >7.

Abstract

A comprehensive understanding of chemistry requires thinking using three levels of interconnected representation: macroscopic, submicroscopic, and symbolic. Electrolyte solutions are one of the concepts in chemistry that need to involve the interconnection of the three levels of chemical representation in studying them. This study aims to analyze the students' ability to interconnect the three levels of chemical representation in the electrolyte solutions concept. This research used a descriptive quantitative research design. The research instrument used The Multiple Representation of Electrolyte Test (MRET). The research data were analyzed descriptively based on the students' answer patterns. The results showed that the student's ability to interconnect the three levels of chemical representation in the electrolyte solutions concept is low. Students are only able to make interconnections between macroscopic and symbolic levels.

Abstract

Detecting and characterizing coffee aroma is crucial for determining the quality of coffee. While gas chromatography is the standard method, using gas sensors is a feasible alternative. The electrode material used extensively influences the response produced by the gas sensor. This study explores using composites of the conductive polymer polypyrrole (PPy) and graphene oxide (GO) as materials for gas sensor electrodes. In the study, we synthesized PPy and GO and characterized them using UV-Vis and FTIR spectrophotometry, confirming that the compounds obtained were PPy and GO. The researchers varied the composition and thickness of PPy/GO in electrode fabrication. Varying the percentage of GO in the composite by 0, 5, 10, and 15% GO resulted in different PPy/GO compositions, while electrode thicknesses observed were 0.083, 0.21, 0.39, and 60 mm. Electrode characterization, including sensitivity, conductivity, and response time, showed that the PPy/GO electrode with a composition of 15% GO and a thickness of 0.21 mm had the best response. The PPy/GO sensor was tested on the aroma of Robusta coffee from three different plantations in the Jember area, East Java. It was able to distinguish the aroma of coffee. Measurement of electrode reproducibility in measuring each sample for one month showed consistent results from week to week, with a %RSD of less than 5%. The research results demonstrate that the PPy/GO sensor with a GO composition of 15% and a thickness of 0.21 mm has excellent potential for differentiating the aroma of coffee with different compositions of constituent compounds.
