Alum Synthesis: The Chemical Process of Recycling Aluminum Introduction By recycling aluminum cans‚ the costs and energy savings are dramatically more resourceful and efficient than producing aluminum from what it is naturally found in‚ bauxite ore. The process of recycling aluminum to produce potassium aluminum sulfate‚ a common alum‚ will be done through a serious of chemical reactions. Through this reaction‚ percent yield will be determined. Materials and Methods The mass of a 250 mL

Synthesis of Acetanilide By: Rick Whitely April 9‚ 2013 Organic Chemistry Lab 1; Professor J. Hutchison Recrystallization is a common method of purifying organic substances through the differences in solubility at different temperature. In this experiment‚ acetanilide was produced by acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride. The crude acetanilide was dissolved in a solvent in a heated water bath. The solution was cooled slowly in an ice bath as crystals form out. As the compound crystallizes

Gay/Lesbian Families Adoption is an extremely sensitive subject‚(insert dash) especially for individuals who are Gay or Lesbian. There is much controversy on the topic. There are a variety of ways to which it isn’t possible for a couple to adopt. Infertility is becoming a greater problem in our time. In Gerald P. Mallon’s article‚ “Assessing Lesbian and Gay Prospective Foster and Adoptive Families: A Focus on the Home Study Process‚” in 2007. He introduces a few different ways gay men and lesbian

receptor protein and a number of other proteins needed for lipid synthesis.(3) The second promoter of cholesterol synthesis is the hormone insulin. Insulin promotes dephosphorylation (activation of HMG-CoA reductase) which promotes cholesterol synthesis in which insulin binds to its receptor protein in the liver cell membrane and stimulate irs-1 formation.irs-1 activates HMG-CoA reductase enzyme increasing rate of cholesterol synthesis.(4) FACTORS

ANALYSIS OF ASPIRIN: SPECTROPHOTOMETRY The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the percent aspirin on a commercial aspirin tablet using an instrumental method‚ spectrophotometry. In a spectrophotometer‚ light from a strong lamp passes through a monochromator‚ which breaks the light into its component colors using a grating‚ then uses mirrors and slits to direct a light beam of the desired wavelength through the sample compartment‚ where you place a tube (cuvette) of solution. A detector

In experiment 3.1.We set up and calibrate the spectronic 20 first since it takes time to be ready to use so‚ we turned the spectronic 20 to warm up for at least 15 minutes‚ set wavelength to 360 while no test tube in it. Also‚ we set the filter lever in order to match the wavelength range‚ and then set the transmittance to 0%‚ then we changed the mode to absorbance. After we labeled two test tubes which were #5 and #10‚ we inserted water first to set 0 absorbance‚ then we used #5 sample to read it

Synthesis of Cyclohexanol Author: Ahmed Ayyash 06/06/13 Introduction: In this experiment‚ cyclohexanol was prepared from an initial cyclohexene. However‚ this occurred over a number of steps‚ these are out lined below. 1. Cyclohexene + aqueous acid cyclohexyl cation 2. cyclohexyl cation + hydrogen sulphate + water protonated cyclohexanol + cyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate 3. cyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate protonated cyclohexanol + HSO4 4. protonated cyclohexanol + HSO4

Molecular pathology behind cancer Cancer cells originate from normal cells when their DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or blue prints within the cell nucleus is damaged. DNA is in every cell and it directs all the cell’s actions‚ growth‚ death‚ protein synthesis etc. When DNA is damaged in a normal cell‚ the cell either repairs the damage or the cell dies. In cancer cells‚ the damaged DNA is not repaired‚ and the cell does not die. Instead it gives rise to more such abnormal cells with abnormal DNA. These

October 9‚ 2013 Partner(s): Acetylsalicylic Acid Synthesis Theory. This experiment was carried out to see how the hydroxyl group on the benzene ring in salicylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form an ester‚ and to make aspirin. Synthesis of Acetylsalicylic Acid occurs by protonation of carbonyl (C=O) group‚ and a nucleophilic attack of OH on the acetic anhydride. The ferric chloride test and melting point were used to test the purity of the results. A hypothesized recovery rater of above
