Analysis of Hydrocarbons Jessa Grace B. Castillo* and Stephanie Chua Department of Chemistry‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines ______________________________________________ Hydrocarbons are organic compounds containing only hydrogen and carbons and further divided in major types. Hydrocarbons react differently in reagents. The basis of determining an unknown hydrocarbon is due to the differences in reactions of hydrocarbons. An unknown compound is determined using tests.

Introduction Extraction is a purification technique used in organic chemistry to separate compounds from a mixture of two or more compounds. There are three different extraction techniques: liquid-liquid extraction‚ solid-liquid extraction and chemically active extraction. All three types of extraction follow the same principle. Organic molecules dissolve in organic solvents and polar molecules dissolve in aqueous solvents. This phenomenon is observed because of the intermolecular forces between

Running Head: Research Design Proposal and Data Collection Research Design Proposal and Data Collection Managerial Decision Making MBA/510 The team proposal is to research and collect data on the background of unleaded gasoline’s price fluctuations. This research proposal will help the team apply and analyze the collected data to better understand how gas prices work. When gas prices are on the rise it can be economically devastating. Therefore‚ business‚ government‚ and consumers always will

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Plastic is everywhere. It is commonly used as a packing material for foods or goods and other products. You usually see it as waste when you’re done using it. A waste that is harmful to the environment when it’s not disposed properly. This study will introduce you a new and best way to recycle plastic‚ specifically‚ Styrofoam. Styrofoam is a trademark of the Dow Company‚ but the material itself is called polystyrene. Like so many other plastics

Overview The paint and coatings manufacturing industry is one of the major chemical processing industries. The major environmental impacts of paints and varnishes are concerning their content of solvents and other chemicals. There is a need to encourage manufacturers to use less of these substances‚ and to ensure proper environmental management throughout the manufacturing process. Procurement of paints and varnishes is classified as having a high environmental profile and some risk of

4-nitroaniline had a percent recovery of 18.67% and naphthalene had a percent recovery of 80%. Naphthalene had a relatively high percent recovery‚ and the loss of product can be explained by error inherent. The low percent recovery of 4-nitroaniline is mainly due to the fact that anhydrous sodium sulfate was accidently added to the flask. Therefore‚ some product was lost as the aqueous solution with the protonated 4-nitroaniline reacted with the drying agent. However‚ more errors to explain the results
