Chemistry of Fireworks By Anuradha Sahu Everyone enjoys the amazing firework shows on the Fourth of July with the beautiful vibrant colors and sparks every year. Fireworks have been part of this world for a very long time. They have been used for enjoyment and for signalling purposes. Every culture has their own significance and use of fireworks. But all fireworks have something in common; the chemistry that makes them work. No matter where you find them‚ they are made up of the same compounds

Sodium borohydride Reduction of Benzil Introduction: The Purpose of this experiment is for the students to learn how to use sodium borohydride to reduce benzil to its secondary alcohol product via reduction reaction. This two-step reaction reduces aldehydes by hydrides to primary alcohols‚ and ketones to secondary alcohols. In order for the reaction to occur and to better control the stereochemistry and yield of the product‚ the metal hydride nucleophile of the reducing agents such as LiH‚ LiAlH4

The Inorganic Chemistry of Carbon Inorganic Carbon For more than 200 years‚ chemists have divided compounds into two categories. Those that were isolated from plants or animals were called organic‚ while those extracted from ores and minerals were inorganic. Organic chemistry is often defined as the chemistry of carbon. But this definition would include calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and graphite‚ which more closely resemble inorganic compounds. We will therefore define organic chemistry as the study
