What Causes Acid Rain? {2} {2} Acid rain caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere‚ where they mix and react with water‚ oxygen‚ and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants‚ known as acid rain.{2} Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides dissolve very easily in water and can be carried very far by wind. As a result‚ the two compounds can travel long distances where

non-essential amino acids‚ amino acid remodeling‚ and conversion of non-amino acid carbon skeletons into amino acids and other derivatives that contain nitrogen. However‚ the liver is the major site of nitrogen metabolism in the body. In times of dietary surplus‚ the potentially toxic nitrogen of amino acids is eliminated via transaminations‚ deamination‚ and urea formation; the carbon skeletons are generally conserved as carbohydrate‚ via gluconeogenesis‚ or as fatty acid via fatty acid synthesis pathways

The Effects of Acid Rain Bio-105 Abstract The effects of acid rain is damaging no matter how you look at the picture. Acid rain effects open areas more than forests due to the trees blocking some of the rain from hitting the ground. Acid rain is monitored by using emissions monitors. This helps figure out how much acid is in rainwater. Acid rain is harmful to fish by killing off entire species. Acid rain is harmful to living creatures‚ but many do not realize how toxic it can be to

Experiment # 3 Acetylsalicylic Acid Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is to create and isolate pure acetylsalicylic acid from the substances salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. Then one will find the melting point to determine purity. Procedure: Make a hot bath. Weigh some salicylic acid and place in conical vial. Add .480mL of acetic anhydride and a drop of concentrated phosphoric acid. Drop in a magnetic spin vane and attach air condenser to vial. Partially submerge it in

Introduction Organic synthesis is the process where a desired organic compound is constructed or prepared from commercially available materials. The objective of organic synthesis is to design the simplest synthetic routes to a molecule. Aspirin‚ also known as acetylsalicylic acid is as salicylate drug often used as analgesic

Acidity’s effects on Fruit Browning Aim: To test whether the acidity of the surface area of an apple has an effect on the rate of enzymatic browning over 70 minutes. Hypothesis: the more acidic the surface area the longer it takes for the fruit to oxidise. Variables: Independent: acidity of surface area of the apple Dependent: the progression of melanin (brown pigment) after 70 minutes Controlled/fixed: time of day‚ knife used to cut fruit‚ portion of fruit‚ environment

Acid-Base Calculations The Ion-Product Constant for Water‚ Kw Water undergoes ionization to a small extent: H20(l) H+(aq) + OH–(aq) The equilibrium constant for the reaction is the ion-product constant for water Kw: (1) This is a key equation in acid-base chemistry. Note that the product of [H+] and [OH–] is a constant at a given temperature (Eq(1) value is for 25oC). Thus as the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution increases‚ the hydroxide ion concentration decreases

menace. Because of pollution in the air‚ acid gases from factories‚ cars and homes‚ the rain is becoming dangerous for the life of every living creature. This rain is known as ’acid rain’. WHAT IS ACID RAIN? Acid gases are produced when fossil fuels like coal and oil are burned in power stations‚ factories and in our own homes. Most of these acid gases are blown into the sky‚ and when
