Abstract

Cocoa beans husk is waste produced from the cocoa processing industry containing alkaloid, flavonoid, tannin, saponin, and triterpenoid compounds. This material has the potential to be used as a source of natural antioxidant compounds. This study aimed to determine the antioxidant activity of cacao beans husk extracts by comparing acetone and ethanol as solvents through the extraction process. This antioxidant activity was determined using the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) test method measured by UV-Vis spectrophotometer after adding an extract of cocoa beans husk. The positive control was vitamin C, while the negative control was DPPH solution dissolved in ethanol. The results showed that the extract of cacao beans husk has more potent antioxidant activity with a lower IC50 value of 181.2 ppm, while the acetone extract has an IC50 value of 247.9 ppm

Abstract

Creative thinking is thinking to determine the new relationships between things, such as finding new solutions to a problem, finding new systems, and finding new artistic forms. This study aimed to analyze students' creative thinking ability by applying concept attainment and problem-based learning models in the redox material of class X SMA Negeri 9 Palu. This type of research was pre-experimental with the static group pre-test post-test design. This study used 2 classes, namely class X MIA 1 as experimental class 1 (n = 22) and class X MIA 2 as experimental class 2 (n = 22). Data analysis of students’ creative thinking was performed using the test given after learning (post-test). The results of this study indicated that the percentage value of the average creative thinking of the experimental class 1 students was 74.5% with the high category and the achievement of aspects of creative thinking of students with the percentage from highest to lowest in the originality aspect were 76.7%, flexibility aspect was 74.1%, and the fluency aspect was 72.7%. While the average percentage of experimental class 2 was 76.6% with the high category and the achievement of aspects of creative thinking of students with the highest to lowest percentage of the fluency aspect was 84.5%, the originality aspect was 75.1%, and the flexibility aspect was 70.2%. The results of this study can be concluded that the application of the Concept Attainment and Problem Based Learning models were very good in creative thinking skills of students class in SMA Negeri 9 Palu on Redox material.

Abstract

Milkfish (Chanos chanos) is famous for Indonesian and has high economic value. Milkfish bone can be processed into flour. A milkfish bone sample was obtained from the Sioyong Market in Dampelas, Donggala. The purpose of this study was to determine the calcium (Ca) levels in milkfish bone using atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). The sample preparation method used dry destruction with sample ignition. The results showed that the average calcium levels in the flesh and head bones of milkfish aged two months were 0.052 ± 0.0007% and 0.132 ± 0.0056%, while those at aged five months milkfish were 0.197 ± 0.0014% and 0.138 ± 0 0007%, respectively. This study concludes that the older the age of milkfish is, the higher the calcium levels in the bones.

This study was a pre-experiment with the static group pretest-postest design. This study was conducted in two groups i.e., class XA as experiment group 1 (n = 24) and Class XB as experiment group 2 (n = 23). Data of students’ learning outcomes were analyzed using t-test two-party statistical analysis with the prerequisite of normality and homogeneity tests of the data from the given posttest. The analysis results obtained the average score of experimental class 1 (1X) was 68.25, while the average score of the control class (2X) was 63.15. The hypothesis test results obtained tcount = 2.47 and ttable = 2.02 with significance level = 0.05 and degrees of freedom 45, then H0 was rejected, and Ha was accepted. Based on these results, it can be concluded that students’ learning outcomes from the class using the cooperative learning model of think pair share (TPS) type is different from the class using cooperative learning model of teams games tournament (TGT) type on the topic of reaction equation in the Class X at MAN 2 Model Palu. Students' learning outcomes in experimental class 1 were higher than in experimental class 2.

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.
