Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Fetal alcohol syndrome is a serious birth defect that causes many children to get when his or her mother drink while they are pregnant . The start of the whole process is the alcohol passes from the placenta to the fetus which the fetus cannot handle the alcohol the exact same way an adult does. Which causes the alcohol to thicken with the fetus and that prevents enough nutrition and oxygen from getting into the fetus. This can cause the kid to grow slower than other children

Chronic Consumption of Ethanol Alcohol and Neurological Dysfunction Ethanol Alcohol‚ commonly known as Alcohol is the primary mood altering drug used in the United States of America. When alcohol is consumed it is absorbed unaltered by the stomach and the small intestines. Then the ethanol molecules are distributed evenly to all of the tissues and fluids of the body. The alcohol present in the bloodstream is metabolized by the liver through three pathways. The major pathway involves an enzyme

From the experimental data and through its analysis‚ the enthalpy of combustion for the five alcohols were determined; methanol‚ ethanol‚ propanol‚ butanol‚ and pentanol. As the line of best fit in the graph suggests‚ the enthalpy of combustion increased as the sizes of the molecules increased. This was predicted in the hypothesis and proves it to be correct. As seen on the graph‚ the enthalpy of combustion increases from 140kJ/mol for methanol‚ which has the smallest molecular mass‚ to 530kJ/mol

Then the analysis of the sample using H NMR and IR will determine purity of the product. Reaction Scheme: Mechanism: Fischer esterification is the acid catalyzed condensation of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid‚ where it is protonated at the carbonyl oxygen‚ then the nucleophillic attack of the alcohol. The proton

convention of Hofmann’s Rule through an E2 elimination because of the presence of a strong‚ bulky base and resulted in the major product of 1-butene. The acid-catalyzed hydration of a primary and secondary alcohol followed the convention of Zaitsev’s Rule proceeded with E1 elimination for the secondary alcohol. 1-butanol could not proceed with E1 because the unstable primary carbocation would have to undergo a 1‚2-hydride or 1‚2-methyl shift to proceed‚ and an E2 elimination is more efficient.

Bleach Oxidation of 9-Hydroxyfluorene The purpose of this experiment was to oxidize an alcohol (9-hydroxyfluorene) to a ketone (9-fluorenone) using aqueous sodium hypochlorite (bleach) as the oxidizing agent‚ while introducing techniques used in microscale experiments. Reaction: Results 1. Recrystallized Product Yield Product yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100% 3mL 9-hydroxyfluorene x (1mL/1000mL) x (0.09 mol/L) = 2.7 x 10-4 moles 0.05g 9-fluorenone / (180.20g/mol) = 2.77 x 10-4

Alcohol Viewed Through the Eyes of Raymond Carver Some people feel that alcohol is a substance that can be used to escape reality and live in a world where there are no dilemmas or problems that must be solved. Whether the alcohol is abused or just used in moderation‚ many people are drawn to the several aspects it has to offer. One example of someone who follows these characteristics is the very famous and talented writer‚ Raymond Carver. Raymond’s use of alcohol is clearly displayed not

Abstract: A simple‚ eco-friendly‚ stability-indicating HPLC method was developed for the determination of Donepezil Hydrochloride (DH) in tablet dosage form in presence of its pharmacopoeial related compound (Donepezil related compound A) and its different degradation products. The chromatographic conditions were optimized to achieve the highest performance parameters using Zorbax Eclipse Plus C18 rapid resolution column (4.6 X 100 mm‚ 3.5 µm)‚ with a mobile phase composed of 72.5 % acetate buffer
