Abstract

Sawdust is one of the industrial wastes that can be used as an absorbent. The chemical content in sawdust is the same as in its wood, i.e lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose. This study aimed to determine the optimum contact time, optimum weight, and adsorption capacity of Cu (II) ions by teak sawdust using the atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). Determination of optimum contact time was carried out with time variations of 10, 30 and 60 minutes, the optimum weight with various weight of 0.5, 1, and 1.5 grams, and the adsorption capacity of teak sawdust in various concentrations of 50, 100, 150 and 200 ppm. The results showed that the equilibrium contact time was reached at 30 minutes, and the percentage of adsorption of Cu (II) was 91.25%. The optimum weight for metal adsorption was 1.5 gram, and the adsorption percentage of adsorbed Cu (II) ions was 96.18%. The adsorption capacity was determined from the adsorption isotherm according to the Langmuir and the freundlich models. The adsorption isotherm model of Cu (II) of teak sawdust follows the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 2.058 mg/g.

Abstract

Wood sawdust is one of the wastes from wood processing industry such as sawdust and peel residues. They are cheap raw materials and potential as a source of alternative energy by processing it into charcoal briquettes. The use of charcoal briquettes as a substitute for fossil energy sources has several advantages including the relatively less smoke emitted because it has been released during the carbonization process. They can be stored for a long time and the calor value is higher than wood. Charcoal briquettes are made from wood sawdust which is added by tapioca flour as glue. This study was conducted in two main stages, processing charcoal briquette and characterization. The characterization of charcoal briquettes are including density, moisture, ash, volatile substances levels, carbon bound, long flame and calor value. The results obtained from the charcoal briquettes are a density of 0.384 gr/cm3, a moisture of 2.44%, an ash of 4.82%, a volatile substance of 19.13%, a carbon bond of 74.44%, a briquette flame of 6.75 minutes/gr and the calor value of 5127 cal/gr. This study concluded that wood sawdust briquette has the potential to be used potentially as substitued for fuel.

Determination of Total Levels of White Turmeric Flavonoids (Curcuma zedoria Rosc.) with Variation of Solvent Types. White turmeric (Curcuma zedoria Rosc.) is a herbal plant that has many health benefits in healing several diseases. It can grow wild in the open with moist soil. The purpose of this study was to determine the total levels of white turmeric flavonoids with various types of solvents. The solvents used in were water and ethanol. The quantitative test of flavonoids in the White Turmeric extract used a quercetin standard solution curve. The samples were analyzed by UV-Vis spectrophotometry at a maximum wavelength of 435 nm. The average yield obtained in the water extract was 0,073% and 0,102% in the ethanol extract.   Keywords: Flavonoids, White Turmeric, UV-Vis Spectrophotometry

Abstract

This study aims to determine whether the analyzed clean water meets the quality standard requirements set by PERMENKES RI No. 492 of 2010. The parameters measured in this study were pH, odor, temperature, color (in-situ testing) as well as iron and hardness which were tested ex-situ using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry and Complexometric Titration. The results of this study are the springs on the S. Parman road for the parameters of pH, color, hardness, and iron, respectively 8.26 pH; colorless; 120 mg/L; and 0.129 mg/L, where the results met the requirements but for the odor (fishy) and temperature (36oC) parameters did not meet the quality standards. Meanwhile, the water sources in the Besusu Tengah Village, which existed before the earthquake in Palu City, had met the requirements set by the government

Abstract

The research is purposed to describe the problem-solving ability of the Senior High School XI grader students in Palu city. The measurement of the problem-solving ability could be determined by solving the exercises of Hydrocarbon and Thermochemistry topics using the Polya’s sequences; consisting of understanding the problem, devising, doing the plan, and evaluating. The ability of students’ problem solving is classified well in every sequence in case of the number of high category students is 60%. The samples are 240 of 507 XI grade students learning chemistry in SMAN 3 and SMA Madani Terpadu in Palu City. The data of problem-solving is determined by providing a test in the form of a validated assay. The result shows the average of XI graders in Palu City only capable of solving the problem without understanding, devising, and evaluating while solving hydrocarbon topics. The ability is not even possessed by students in Thermochemistry. It implies that senior high school students in Palu could not represent the problem in the form of figure, symbol, statement, and mathematics statement or have not been able to devise the problem solving and correlate the obtained result with the related theory or concept. Therefore, the students should be trained to solve the problem in learning by application the problem-solving sequences.

Abstract

The plant prickly lantana (Lantana Camara L.) contains alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and triterpenoids and has the potential to be used as a natural antioxidant source. The research objective is to determine the IC50 value for the antioxidant activity of prickly lantana leaf extract. Prickly lantana leaves were macerated in a 96% ethanol solvent for 3x24 hours. Phytochemical analysis of prickly lantana leaves revealed that the leaves contained alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins. This antioxidant activity test was performed using the reagent 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), whose absorption at 517 nm was measured using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and by varying the sample concentration after the addition of prickly lantana leaf extract. The concentrations of prickly lantana leaf extract used varied from 20 ppm to 40 ppm, 60 ppm, and 80 ppm. The positive control was vitamin C at the same concentration variation, and the negative control was DPPH solution dissolved in 96% ethanol. The results showed that the IC50 of prickly lantana leaf extract was 164.639 ppm, while vitamin C had an IC50 of 18.754 ppm.

Abstract

This study was conducted to describe the increase in student learning outcomes after the application of the Think Pair Share (TPS) cooperative learning model in Class X Compound Nomenclature at SMA Negeri 1 Bahodopi. This type of research is a Pre-Experimen research with one group Pre-test and Post-test design. The population in this study were all students of class X MIA at SMA Negeri 1 Bahodopi which consisted of three classes, namely class X MIA 1, MIA 2, and X MIA 3 with a total of 91 students. The sample in this study were 30 students of class X MIA 3 as Experiment class 1 and students of class X MIA 1 as many as 30 people as experiment class 2. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The instrument of this research is a test of learning outcomes. In the replication class 1, the student's learning outcomes were 75.83, while the replication class 2 was 76.83. The research data obtained from the two classes were analyzed using the N-Gain test, which was used to determine the increase in student learning outcomes. The data from the N-Gain test was obtained in the replication class 1 which was an average of 0.62 and the replication class 2 was an average of 0.63. The results of the data from the N-Gain test obtained that g = value 0.30 (<g>) <0.70 was in the medium category, which indicated that there was a change in student learning outcomes after the application of the Think Pair Share (TPS) cooperative learning model.
