the definition‚ why‚ and for what purpose. The word "organic" is seen quiet frequently to represent whole foods that are made without preservatives and or pestecides. In actual fact organic means based on the carbon molecule. The word organic can be used commercially to pass off carbon based goods as healthy‚ which is not necessarily the case. In Neil Postman’s "Defending Against the Indefensible"‚ he suggests that our society has been culturally brainwashed. Therefore‚ Postman has given us seven

important materials in manufacturing tires‚ Natural Rubber and Carbon Black. Natural rubber is the basic elastomer used in tire manufacturing then synthetic rubber is often added by manufacturers to reduce cost. To avoid loss of quality‚ Carbon Black is then added which gives the final product reinforcement and abrasion resistance‚ it forms a high percentage of the rubber compound. Both can only be bought overseas‚ though Carbon Black supply is readily available in most of European countries

Banana (Musa Paradisiaca) Peel Shoe Polish | Abstract:Shoe polish is used to shine‚ to maintain the appearance and to sustain the quality of the shoes. Based on the information in the written articles‚ banana peels can be used to shine shoes so the researcher decided to come up with the study of making a shoe polish out of banana peelings. The study aimed to produce a cheaper but better alternative shoe polish.The researchers used banana peels‚ kerosene and candles in making the product. In making

With so much of the earth using coal‚ the toxins and carbon dioxide emitted from power plants are extremely damaging to our environment. Scientists believe that one of the biggest contributors to global warming is carbon dioxide‚ and a whopping 78% of the

Hypothesis: Suppose that the primary and secondary alcohols will react with HCL and KmnO4‚ and the tertiary alcohol wont react with either HCL nor KMnO4 due to the location of the OH. The carbon that is bonded to the OH in both primary and secondary still has one or two Hydrogen atoms to undergo reactions‚ but the carbon in the tertiary alcohol do not have any Hydrogen to undergo reactions with. Materials: refer to the handout. Procedure: refer to the handout. Observation: Alcohol | Reaction

hydrochloric acid using nucleophilic substitution sn1. In the substitution reaction the Hydrogen in HCl protonated the alcohol group in t-pentyl alcohol and turned it to a good leaving group (H2O). a tertiary carbon cation was formed. a nucleophilic attach of the negative Cl- attacked the carbon cation forming t-pentyl chloride [7]. As the reaction proceeded‚ extraction and distillation techniques were used to get a pure product of t-pentyl chloride. The percent yield of t- pyntyl chloride (30.92 %

Coal was once again the fastest growing fossil fuel‚ with predictable consequences for carbon emissions [BP Statistical Review of World Energy‚ 2012]. Ethanol fuel is the most common biofuel worldwide‚ particularly in Brazil and USA which is produced from several biomass feedstocks and different technologies [].The ethanol production methods

Daniel Defoe Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without Confucius In mineralogy‚ diamond (from the ancient Greek αδάμας – adámas "unbreakable") is a metastable allotrope of carbon‚ where the carbon atoms are arranged in a variation of the face-centered cubic crystal structure called a diamond lattice. Diamond is less stable than graphite‚ but the conversion rate from diamond to graphite is negligible at standard conditions. Diamond

Alkanes‚ alkenes‚ alkynes and aromatic rings are the four classifications of hydrocarbons. Each of these classifications have different physical and chemical properties that were tested as this experiment was performed. Flammability
