Abstract In this experiment‚ 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-3‚4-dihydropyrimidine-2-one is synthesized in a solvent-free reaction‚ where urea‚ ethyl acetoacetate‚ 4-chlorobenzaldehyde are used as the reactants and p-toluenesulfonic acid is used as the catalyst. This reaction is similar to the original synthesis of DHPM by Pietro Bignelli‚ as it incorporates a single step. Due to its environmentally friendly conditions‚ such as the use of solar energy as a heat source and the lack of solvent‚ this synthesis of

Aims The aims of this investigation are: 1. To find the rate equation of the reaction of hydrogen peroxide and iodide ions. This will be achieved by using an iodine clock method and colorimetric analysis. 2. Draw a graph of rate against concentration for each reactant (Hydrogen peroxide‚ potassium iodide and H+ ions). 3. Finding the order for each reactant 4. Finding the rate-determining step. 5. Proposing a mechanism for the reaction. 6. Using Arrhenius’ equation to find the activation

Rising costs of coal extraction and stricter emission regulations by government bodies like the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have threatened to end to coal’s reign as the energy source of choice. But a new spray on catalyst from an innovative company‚ Burn Less Coal’s catalyzing solution holds promise to breathe fresh life into coal’s future‚ and can even finance investment into zero discharge coal power.

Fahrenheit 451 Essay In the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury the protagonist of the novel Montag‚ represents a symbolic character throughout the novel. The catalyst of the novel Clarisse jolts Montag into awareness. Both of these characters in the novel represent certain types of people. Montag represents the people that are destructive in society but as the novel progresses he changes to an understanding person. Clarisse represents the inquisitive people and does not change throughout

Enzymes (pron.: /ˈɛnzaɪmz/) are large biological molecules responsible for the thousands of chemical interconversions that sustain life.[1][2] They are highly selective catalysts‚ greatly accelerating both the rate and specificity of metabolic reactions‚ from the digestion of food to the synthesis of DNA. Most enzymes are proteins‚ although some catalytic RNA molecules have been identified. Enzymes adopt a specific three-dimensional structure‚ and may employ organic (e.g. biotin) and inorganic (e
