Exercise 1 Polymers – An introduction to Organic Chemistry Group 3 Jude Marchoni C. Tampus Meryl Marie Susan Chua Pearl Pontillas Paolo Pepito Gaia Casas I. Abstract: (Paolo) In this experiment we will be testing what would happen to the polymer when we add borax to it. A polymer is a compound made up of large molecules often in a solid state. Polymers are chemically formed by 100 to 10‚000 small molecules called "monomers". Monomers occur in molecular units or patterns

Organic Farming versus Conventional Farming With the increase in concern about the dangers of the foods we consume‚ the demand for organic food has increased at an alarming rate. Conventional farming has been around for more than 100 centuries‚ and it is one of the most prosperous industries in the world. Organic farming on the other hand dates back to the 20th century. Sir Albert Howard is considered by many to be the pioneer of the organic movement (Heckman). Although some concepts of organic

Why is organic chemistry important? Organic compounds are used for many different things. Daily life in today’s world would be very hard to live in without organic compounds; in fact life would not be possible without organic compounds. For example‚ most of your body is made up of organic compounds. The food you eat is made up of organic compounds. Even the flavourings and colourings on processed food are organic. The clothes you wear are‚ yes you guessed it‚ organic as well. What’s more is that

Rency J Group 5 18L I. Introduction Due to the demand of certain reagents in the laboratory in order to perform and conduct further experiments or produce essential compounds‚ chemists continuously develop organic synthesis. This process aims to prepare and synthesize desired organic compounds from commercially or readily available ones by providing the simplest route in synthesizing the compound. One example of a compound being can be synthesized in the laboratory is acetylsalicylic acid‚ commonly
