Abstract

Oxidative stress is a condition in which the amount of free radicals and antioxidants in the body is not balanced, causing various diseases. One of them is a degenerative disease. Oxidative stress can be reduced by antioxidant compounds. Anacardium occidentale L. is a type of plant from the Anacardiaceae family. This plant is found in many trophic countries included Indonesia, and is believed to ward off degenerative diseases caused by oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to analyze the activity of A. occidentale stem bark extract against DPPH radical inhibition (1,1-Diphenyl-2-Picrilhidrazil) and the profiling of secondary metabolites in their active fraction. The bark of A. occidentale was extracted by a gradient maceration method. The solvents used were n-hexane (nonpolar), ethyl acetate (semi-polar), and methanol (polar). The macerate was concentrated using a rotary vacuum evaporator, followed by DPPH radical inhibition analysis using a spectrophotometer. The most active extract was analyzed for chemical content by LC-MS/MS. The results showed that the extract of A. occidentale stem bark had antioxidant activity. Methanol extract obtained very strong and best antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 47.13 ppm compared to ethyl acetate extract and n-hexane extract, which had IC50 values of 163.92 ppm and 501.72 ppm, respectively. Secondary metabolites that are thought to have antioxidant activity in the methanol extract of A. occidentale stem bark were epigallocatechin (EC) and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) compounds.

Abstract

Mental models are representations that describe the understanding of the three levels of representation in chemistry, that is macroscopic, sub-microscopic, and symbolic. This study aims to obtain a general description of the mental model of pre-service chemistry teachers in the colligative properties of non-electrolyte solutions. The study was a descriptive research with 22 second-year FIP Chemistry Education students from Pelita Harapan University Tangerang. Data collection was carried out with research instruments in the form of diagnostic tests. The results of the study state that the average percentage level of representation is 67 % macroscopic level, 31% sub-microscopic level, and 72 % symbolic level. The results of this study indicate that students' understanding at the macroscopic and sub-microscopic level of the colligative properties of non-electrolyte solutions was low compared to chemical representations at a symbolic level. Meanwhile, the categories of mental models possessed by pre-service chemistry teachers in the topic of non-electrolyte colligative properties vary for each level of chemical representation. Based on the percentage at each level of representation, the mental model of chemistry teacher candidates with a symbolic model category is higher than the scientific model. The low mental model of the scientific model contributed to the understanding of the pre-service chemistry teachers that the concept of chemistry is not intact scientifically.

Abstract

Improving cognitive abilities, namely learning outcomes is one of the objectives of learning. Learning outcomes can be improved through the use of creative, innovative learning models in accordance with the current curriculum, the 2013 revised curriculum. This study aims to determine whether there is an increase in Physics Chemistry Learning Outcomes 1 through the Project-based Learning (PjBL) Learning Model using Quizizz online learning media. Based on the results of the normality and homogeneity test, the data is normally distributed with the value of the normality test result of 0.638 (sig 0.05) and homogeneous with the homogeneity test result value of 0.144 (sig 0.05). The results of statistical analysis of research data using the paired t-test hypothesis test results obtained tcount = 17,685 (sig 0.00) and ttable = 0.684 (sig 0.05), it is concluded that there is an increase in learning outcomes in Physics Chemistry 1 through the Project-based Learning (PjBL) learning model using Quizizz online learning media because tcount˃ ttable. A further test is the gain test, to determine the level of improvement in learning outcomes. The results of the analysis using the gain test, the gain value of 42.51%, with the medium category.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the conceptual changes of students after participating in learning with a blended learning approach on Thermodynamics material. This research is a type of pre-experimental (pre-experimental design) with a One Group Pretest-Postest Design. The blended learning approach is applied using the Problem Based Learning model. The research sample was Class C Odd Semester 2019/2020 students which consisted of 34 students who programmed Physical Chemistry courses. The instrument used is a two-tier multiple choice test which includes concepts in Thermodynamics material which is equipped with a valid CRI. The blended learning approach is one approach that can be used that facilitates student activities in utilizing ICT through the delivery of materials, discussion of task completion, and training in the search for teaching materials on Thermodynamics material. The results showed that misconceptions still occur in every concept of Thermodynamics. The average reduction of misconceptions (MC) is 11.2%, the increase in the number of students to knowing concept (KC) classically is 19.2%, and the decrease in the number of students unknowing concept (UKC) is classically 8.1%. Students' conceptual changes to the material of Thermodynamics are still low. Students are required to understand well the content of the material related to basic concepts, mathematical equations (formulas), and the applicative forms of concepts in everyday life in accordance with the characteristics of the thermodynamic material.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the concentration effect of skin extract in watermelon on the inhibition of corrosion rates of iron nails in the corrosive medium of NaCl solution and seawater as a comparison. The study began with the first maceration of the skin in watermelon and then followed by evaporation to produce extracts specific gravity 0,097 gram/mL as inhibitors with variations in concentrations of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16%. The method of determining the corrosion rate used was the weight loss method from the 7-day immersion process. The results showed that the greatest corrosion inhibition efficiency occurred at a concentration of 8% for immersion with 3% NaCl corrosive medium and 4% concentration for immersion in seawater with the efficiency of 11.56% and 22.15%, respectively. Based on the results of the study, it was found that each addition of extract in watermelon can affect the effectiveness of inhibition.
