considered in making it. Water for the plants will be taken from the ample amount of water added before sealing the terrarium. Light is capable of passing through the transparent container. CO2 needed by the plant will be provided by a layer of activated charcoal right below the soil layer. Methodology In making the sealed terrarium‚ the first step taken was to decide on which organism/plant to use. Sinaw-sinaw plant was chosen because it is capable of surviving an environment where no direct

of organic carbon compounds that contain‚ primarily‚ carbon and hydrogen. Whereas the organic compound can contain other elements‚ the bond between carbon and hydrogen are what makes a compound organic. The original organic chemistry was defined the study of compounds by living organisms. Inorganic chemistry is the chemistry that deals with the properties and behavior of inorganic compounds. Inorganic compounds are those that are not biological‚ and not containing any hydrogen and carbon bonds. We

you will soon find the smells have gone away because they are absorbed into the charcoal. In this investigatory project its main purpose is to find out if how can charcoal be used as a filter and how does it work? Since charcoal is made out of carbon. According to Encyclopedia: "The use of special manufacturing techniques results in highly porous charcoals that have surface areas of 300 - 2‚000 square meters per gram. Charcoals are widely used to adsorb odorous or colored substances from gases

The goal of this experiment was to synthesize dibenzalacetone by aldol synthesis. The name ’Aldol synthesis’ was taken from the words ’aldehyde and alcohol’. This is because the product of this reaction contains both an aldehyde and alcohol. The carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction is referred to as aldol addition. An aldol condensation yields many species of products if the reactant is more than one. Therefore‚ the aldehyde has to react with itself to yield one product. Procedure: Followed according

ADJIVON UNIT 1 INTRODUCTION Organic chemistry started as the chemistry of life‚ when that was thought to be different from the chemistry in the laboratory. Then it became the chemistry of carbon compounds‚ especially those found in coal. Now it is both. It is the chemistry of the compounds of carbon along with other elements such hydrogen as are found in living things and elsewhere. The organic compounds available to us today are those present in living things and those formed over millions
Premium Carbon Atom Petroleum
Polypropylene consist of propylene as the monomer which has three carbons and one double bond between two of those carbon atoms. Polypropylene is manufactured from propylene gas in the presence of a catalyst. They are widely used for pipes‚ containers and packaging. Nonetheless‚ Polyethylene is a polymer made of ethylene. Ethylene has two carbon atoms bonded to each other with a double bond. Polyethylene is the basic component in making bottles‚ bags and fibres. Both polypropylene and polyethylene

was added to Estilbene to form an anti product. This happened because no true carbocation was formed in reaction. Instead‚ there was an intermediate where one of the bromine atoms was partially bonded to both carbon atoms of the double bond. This prevented bond rotation around the carbon-carbon bond. The steric hindrance prevented the bromine from being added to the same side as the first bromine atom. Thus‚ the process of bromination was stereoselective and the product formed was chiral. ii.

Discovered in 1887‚ this is a carbon-carbon bond making reaction. The result of the Michael addition is a 1‚4 addition of a nucleophile to an alpha‚ beta-unsaturated carbonyl carbon compound. A 1‚4 addition is also commonly referred to as a conjugated addition. Another result of this reaction is a 1‚2 addition of a nucleophile. Some of the common attacking nucleophiles used in this reaction are enolates. Enolates‚ a negatively charged oxygen with an adjacent carbon-carbon double bond‚ will react with

distinct from other branches‚ such as inorganic and physical chemistry. It can be described as the chemistry living processes (often referred to as biochemistry) but extends beyond that. It focuses almost entirely on the chemistry of covalently bonded carbon molecules and as well as life processes‚ it includes the chemistry of other types of compounds‚ including plastics‚ petrochemicals‚ drugs and paint. The early chemists didn’t think they would ever be able to make the sort of chemicals involved

NANOTECHNOLOGY the Future of Architecture What is Nanotechnology? And how it serves in the improving progress of architecture? Nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale. This covers both current work and concepts that are more advanced. In its original sense‚ ’nanotechnology’ refers to the projected ability to construct items from the bottom up‚ using techniques and tools being developed today to make complete‚ high performance products.
