experiment was conducted to accomplish the following objectives. The first objective aims to synthesize an isomer of alkenes. This was done by converting maleic acid to fumaric acid. This conversion was accomplished by applying a heat-catalyzed reaction on maleic acid diluted in distilled water and mixing it with HCl using a reflux set-up. A reflex set up is a distillation set up wherein the set up differed because it is inverted vertically. This was done in order to break the pi bond to allow the

31) QUALITY OF DRIED FOODS AND DETERIORATIVE REACTIONS DURING DRYING Consumer demand has increased for processed products that keep more of their original characteristics. In industrial terms‚ this requires the development of operations that minimize the adverse effects of processing. The effect of food processing on finished product quality ultimately determines the usefulness and commercial viability of that unit process operation. In the particular case of food drying this indicates that loss

Reaction Rates of Barley Alpha Amylase with Starch at Specific pH ’s and Temperatures Page 1 Abstract Enzyme ’s are used as catalysts in certain reactions. They help lower the activation energy needed for the reaction to go to completion. At optimum temperature and pH the amount of collisions of substrate and enzyme is at its highest‚ any deviation from the optimum temperature and pH will result in the denaturization of the enzyme. The purpose of this experiment is to find the optimum

EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY THE EFFECT OF THE GOVERNMENT HEALTH EXPENDITURES ON MORTALITY RATE. Submitted to: Dr. Peter Mihalyi Submitted by: Narmina Rustamova Abstract. In this paper I analyze the impact of the government healthcare expenditures‚ as a percentage of gross domestic product‚ on mortality rate per 1000 population in the age group of 15-60. In order to make the estimation results more specific I add the employment rate of females to the initial regression

Philippines (CPP)‚ and the Muslim separatist movement of the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF). One of his first actions was to arrest opposition politicians in Congress and the Constitutional Convention. Initial public reaction to martial law was mostly favourable except in Muslim areas of the south‚ where a separatist rebellion‚ led by the MNLF‚ broke out in 1973. Despite half-hearted attempts to negotiate a cease-fire‚ the rebellion continued to claim thousands of military and civilian casualties

Surface Tension Properties of Liquids Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to measure and record the surface tension of water and other aqueous solutions using capillary rise method techniques and practicing lab safety. In this laboratory the surface tension of water depends on the concentration of the following solutes; NaCl‚ acetone‚ and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Intermolecular interactions as well as other phases (solid‚ or air) make a liquid exist. The data collected will show

1. Explain the terms area of convergence and area of origin and explain what each term reveals to an investigator. The area of convergence of an impact spatter pattern is the area the individual stains emanated from on a two-dimensional plane. The area of origin of a bloodstain pattern in three-dimensional space may represent the position of the victim or suspect when the stain-producing event took place. These areas can determine and reveal to an investigator the direction of force‚ angle of impact

Interpretation of Data When looking at my results i can safely say that the change in HCl concentration does affect the rate of reaction with the Calcium carbonate pebbles. The relationship between the change in HCl and reaction rate can be seen in the graph and raw data table presented above. If you compare the lowest concentration with the highest concentration you’d be able to see that there is a very large contrast between their averages. The average gas production of 0.1M HCl was 0.00693 kPa/s

Investigating Factors that Affect the Rate of Reaction of the Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide Emilio Lanza Introduction- In this experiment‚ the rate of reaction‚ calculated in kPa sec-1‚ of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide will be investigated to see how the change in concentration of hydrogen peroxide and the change in temperature affect the rate of reaction. The data will be collected by measuring the gas pressure. The product of Hydrogen Peroxide is oxygen in a gas state thus
