McDonalds is a worldwide chain that tortures its animals‚ cuts the lifespan of its customers and taking over the world. This is why I believe it should be banned. First‚ let’s start with some statistics: * Last year‚ the company raked in a huge 28 billion US dollars; there are over 33‚000 stores worldwide. Americans consume approximately 1 billion pounds of beef at McDonalds a year- that’s the equivalent of 4 million average weight two year old children. * McDonalds doesn’t follow FDA standards

the most commonly used drugs because it has adverse impacts on human’s health through how it’s metabolized. Alcohol is a compound of hydrogen‚ carbon and oxygen‚ which can be combined in many different ways. The commonest as known as ethyl ethanol‚ which is a specific alcohol compound (C2H5OH) and formed from the fermentation of yeast‚ sugars and starches. This alcoholic formation also releases carbon dioxide (Simon‚ Reece‚ Dickey 2010‚ p.103). The compounds of alcohols are structurally

Title: Thin-Layer Chromatography Objectives: Part1: 1. To learn the technique of TLC and the visualization of colourless components. 2. To identify an unknown drug by a TLC comparison with standard compounds. Part 2: To learn the separation technique by using Thin Layer Chromatography plate in separating a mixture of compounds into individual pure compound by using Spinach Leaf. Introduction: (i) General Concepts Chromatography is a common and powerful method used to separate and analyze complex

CLASSIFICATION TESTS A. Acids There are relatively few suitable tests for carboxylic acids. Classification is based mostly upon solubility tests. If the compound is water soluble‚ test the aqueous solution of your compound with pH paper (also check the pH of the original water). If the compound is water-insoluble and it dissolves in 5% (1.5M) sodium hydroxide and 5% NaHCO3 solutions as performed in your solubility tests‚ it can be classified as a carboxylic acid. Establish an equivalence value

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Mangrove swamps are forested intertidal ecosystems that occupy sediment-rich sheltered tropical coastal environments. By trapping and stabilizing fine sediments‚ mangroves control the quality of marine coastal waters. Aside from maintaining coastal food webs and populations of animals‚ mangroves have an important role in pollution control through their absorptive capacity for organic pollutants and nutrients‚ and they play an important role in storm

Discuss different strategies for producing wine with low or no SO2. Is there global demand from consumers for such wines? SO2‚ sulfur dioxide has been considered as one of the essential additives for making sound wine‚ which acts as antioxidant and antiseptic. History of sulfur in wine dates back to Roman times when they discovered that wine was kept fresh by burning sulfur candles inside empty wine vessels. However‚ the number of wines produced with low or no SO2 is increasing in these 10 years

Introduction The Diels-Alder Reaction is a reaction used in organic chemistry that builds rings very efficiently (1)‚ this cycloaddition process allows for the stereoselective formation of cyclohexene rings possessing as many as four contiguous stereogenic centers (3). This reaction occurs without intermediates‚ in a single step‚ which explains the stereospecificity due to substituents not being given the chance to “switch around”. (1)These six membered rings are synthesized by reacting a dienophile
