Extraction of metals The History of Metals. Metals have been used by people for many thousands of years. Gold and silver‚ found as native metal‚ were used both as jewellery and as a status symbol - nothing new there. These metals were known in the Stone Age‚ but gold and silver are too soft to be used as tools. The first really useful metal to be discovered was bronze. This began the Bronze Age. Bronze was used extensively for tools and weapons in Asia and Africa from 4‚500 B.C. (6‚500 years

Exp. 2 Separation of Three Compounds by Extraction Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is do demonstrate the proper procedures of extraction and to develop a practical understanding of this method. In this experiment‚ extraction is used to separate a known acid‚ base‚ and neural compound from each other. The first two compounds undergo proton transfer reactions in the presence of acids or bases. Acids RCOOH‚ like benzoic acid‚ was deprotonated to form RCOO-. Bases RNH2‚ like ethyl 4-aminobenzoate

November 5‚ 2014 Bioinformatics Leigh Ann Santana DNA Extraction Lab DNA extraction is an important process because the DNA first needs to be purified away from proteins and other cellular contaminants. Cell are needed‚ because that is where the DNA is located. Inside almost every cell in our bodies is a nucleus‚ and inside each nucleus is about two meters of DNA. The following steps are needed to purify DNA from a cheek swab. Collect cheek cells‚ Burst cells open to release DNA‚ separate DNA

DNA EXTRACTION In extracting chromatin from the cells of wheat germ there are seven steps to follow. The optimal cell to use would be the polyploidal eukaryotic. Eukaryotes have nucleus membrane-bound organelles‚ while prokaryotic does not. The polyploidal eukaryotic cell has DNA that is held in the nucleus while the prokaryote has DNA that floats freely around the cell. The DNA of eukaryotes is more complex and extensive than the other. Prokaryote is a bacterial cell that

Name: Leung Chun Wai Student no.: G20554292 Topic: (NT3048) Smoke extraction design for large space such as atrium 1. INTRODUCTION Atrium inside a building is an old architectural concept for about two thousand years. This concept has been developed and extended to modern buildings. Current trend of atrium design provides an ‘ideal’ external environment to the occupants with a large undivided space. The major problem for fires in atrium is hot and toxic gases accumulating and go down in the atrium

Objective: To extract caffeine from tea powder using polar - nonpolar solvent extraction technique. Theory: The technique used to separate an organic compound from a mixture of compounds is called Extraction. Extraction process selectively dissolves one or more of the mixture compounds into a suitable solvent. The solution of these dissolved compounds is referred to as the Extract. Here the organic solvent dichloromethane is used to extract caffeine from an aqueous extract of tea leaves

EXTRACTION OF METALS SUMMARY Most metals exist in compounds in rocks in the Earth’s crust. Many of these ores contain oxides or sulphides of the metals. The compounds need to be reduced to produce the metals as elements. Metals are very useful to us because of their special properties. Reduction means removal of oxygen or gain of electrons. Carbon is a good chemical reducing agent because it readily combines with oxygen‚ but it is only useful for the metals below it in the Reactivity
