Chemist from the University of Glasgow in Scotland have taken a step closer towards producing clean hydrogen fuel in a maintainable way. Hydrogen gas is able to be burned to generate electricity without producing lethal releases‚ unlike fossil fuels. It is produced from water releasing them as gas‚ through a process called electrolysis‚ which uses electricity to break the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen. This technique is 30 times faster than the current method‚ and can be powered by renewable

Preparation of t-Butyl-Chloride March 8 & 15‚ 2012 Theory: Alkyl halides can be synthesized when alcohols react with hydrogen halides. An alkyl halide is a halogen-substituted alkane‚ and a hydrogen halide is a compound consisting of a hydrogen bonded to a halogen (H-X). Alkyl halides are classified as primary‚ secondary‚ or tertiary depending on the number of alkyl substituents directly attached to the carbon bearing the halogen atom. The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to prepare

of a component causes the equilibrium to shift to the side from which the component was removed. D. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? How do you know? When acid is added to water the reaction is strongly exothermic. Because the hydrogen ion is so tiny‚ a large amount of charge is concentrated in a very small

GRAVIMETRIC ANALYSIS OF A CHLORIDE SALT (2013) Report By: ____________ Lab Partner: ___________ Group: CHEM 1001 Tuesday AM‚ Group H Purpose: This lab was conducted in order to determine the content of chloride in an unknown salt‚ using gravimetric analysis. Theory: The salt chloride content is easy to find because it is slightly soluble‚ making it possible to turn it into a precipitate. A precipitate reaction can be done using silver

the most abundant thing in the universe? Hydrogen is the answer! Now with a little bit more refining it will be. Good morning fellow students today I will be talking about hydrogen powered vehicles. Firstly‚ some terms need definition.Hydrogen- a colourless‚ odourless‚ flammable gas which is the lightest and simplest of all known elements.Vehicle- A device or structure for transporting persons or things. Secondly‚ now to explain the ways to use hydrogen as a fuel. The first way is called electrolysis

seem more suitable than hydrogen. The possibility of hydrogen as a fuel is ever increasing‚ with the advantages outweighing the disadvantages more every year. Car manufactures are already making cars that are hydrogen powered‚ although they are either prototypes or extremely limited production runs‚ but cars such as the Honda Clarity prove that hydrogen powered cars really are not a thing of the future‚ but a thing of the present. ABOVE: The Honda Clarity‚ the first hydrogen powered car to have a

aim of this study was to test the rate of reactivity of the enzyme catalase on hydrogen peroxide while subject to different concentrations of an inhibitor. The hypothesis was that hydrogen peroxide will be broken down by catalase into hydrogen and oxygen‚ where a higher concentration of inhibitor will yield less oxygen‚ resultant of a lower rate of reaction. Crushed potato samples of equal weight were placed in hydrogen peroxide solutions of various temperatures. The results showed that less gas was

Review of Related Literature Calamondin or Clamansi‚ Citrofornella microcarpa‚ belong to the fruit tree family Rutaceae. The fruit of the Calamansi is a small‚ round lime‚ a little bigger than the size of a thumbnail‚ about 30 mm (an inch) in diameter. Similar to other citrus fruits‚ the calamansi is high in vitamin C‚ and the juice can be an excellent vitamin basis.

Lab #18 Stoichiometry In this lab‚ we reacted aluminum foil with a copper chloride solution‚ and determined the amount of metal that should be produced‚ given the amount of aluminum used. First‚ we obtained a piece of aluminum with a mass of 0.809 g‚ and reacted it with 100 mL of Copper II Chloride‚ after heating the solution. Then‚ we filtered out the copper separated in the reaction using filter paper‚ massing 0.751 g. Once all the solution was filtered‚ we massed the new filter paper filled with
