Ascorbic Acid

Post by Olympusman »

As I have noted before, the crystalization of Ascorbic Acid depends on a number of factors, the main two being time and temperature.
In this set, a glass plate was placed above the gravy warmer with two pairs of two layers of popsicle sticks shimming the the glass plate above the gravy warming so some of the heat could be bled off. Then the slides were put on the glass plate, the drops of the Ascorbic Acid solution put on the slides and the slides were then evaporated.
