Biotechnology tools are used in identifying‚ isolating‚ characterizing‚ testing‚ and synthesizing compounds discovered in marine animals and plants and then developed into drugs or other products (Fenical‚ 1993; Davidson‚ 1995; Kobayashi and Ishibashi‚ 1993).

lab Introduction: Organometallic chemistry is the study of chemical compounds that contain carbon atoms bound to a metal atom. Organometallic compounds can contain main group elements‚ or more metallic elements such as zinc or carbon. These compounds tend to have carbon atoms bound to the metal center by σ-bonds. Alternatively‚ transition metals can be involved in the compound‚ which leads to a variety of interesting and diverse chemical characteristics. For example‚ a promising use of Mo(CO)6 is

Chemical Reactions and their Classifications 26 October 2012 Abstract: Ordinary laboratory ware was used to determine how many of what type of chemical reactions occurred. This yielded three decomposition reactions‚ four substitution reactions‚ and three metathesis reactions. Introduction There are many different types of chemical reactions in the study of chemistry; A composition reaction (also known as synthesis) is defined as the reaction that occurs when two single compounds combine in

Lab #5 Chemical Reactions & Balancing Equations Objectives Observe and classify several chemical and physical changes. Give evidence for the occurrence of a chemical reaction. Write a balanced equation for a chemical reaction. Identify a reaction as a combination‚ decomposition‚ replacement‚ or combustion reaction. Background Physical properties can be observed without changing the chemical composition of the substance. Common physical properties that can be measured without changing the chemical

Physical properties of organic compound Low boiling point group: alkane‚ alkene‚ alkyne and ether Boiling point is the exact temperature that the state of compound change from liquid to gas‚ which need to break the intermolecular forces. The stronger the intermolecular forces‚ the higher the boiling point. Since straight chain alkane‚ alkene and alkyne only experience dispersion forces‚ the compound with more carbons have higher boiling point as more carbons contribute more forces. Branched

Coordination Compounds are compounds that contain at least one complex ion. Complex ion is an ionic species consisting of a metal ion bounded one or more Lewis bases. Coordination complex is the product of a Lewis acid-base reaction in which neutral molecules bond to a central metal atom by coordinate covalent bonds. A coordinate covalent bond is a covalent bond in which one atom supplies both electrons. Ligands are atoms or molecules with electron pairs available‚ and they may be neutral or negatively
