The Chemistry of Lipids Experiment #8 Objective To observe the solubility of lipids in polar and nonpolar solvents and to compare saturated and unsaturated fats in their chemical reaction with bromine. The percent fat in a food will be determined by extraction of the fat and weighing it. Introduction Lipids‚ by definition‚ are natural substances that do not mix with water but dissolve in organic solvents. There are several classes of lipids‚ including: fatty acids‚ waxes‚ triacylglycerols

Alchemy in relation to Chemistry Practical applications of alchemy produced a wide range of contributions to medicine and the physical sciences. The alchemist Robert Boyle is credited as being the father of chemistry. Paracelsian iatrochemistry emphasized the medicinal application of alchemy ‚continued in plant alchemy‚ orspagyric. Studies of alchemy also influenced Isaac Newton’s theory of gravity.Alchemists made contributions to the "chemical" industries of the day—ore testing and refining‚ metalworking

Unlike the brain where a person can continue to be “alive” without any electrical activity‚ without a heartbeat‚ a person cannot live. The average person doesn’t ever think about how or why their hearts lub dub every minute of every day until they die. For someone whose heart doesn’t beat properly‚ the lub dub is a frequent worry. Brandon England is one of those people

The Chemistry of Toothpaste Toothpaste is not a new thing. It has been traced back to Ancient Egypt. They used a powdered rock and vinegar‚ which created a chemical reaction that dissolves the plaque on teeth. In 1900’s people used hydrogen peroxide and baking soda or chalk‚ pulverised brisk and salt as a toothpaste. Toothpastes today‚ are mostly made up of abrasives‚ surfactants‚ a detergent‚ a thickener‚ a moisturizer‚ water‚ flavouring agents‚ coloring‚ sweeteners‚ fluoride and desensitizers

did I was able to work with both the pharmacist and the pharmacy assistants during the transition. I had the opportunity to observe the checking process in dispense‚ storing and ordering of medication and was able to observe consultations. The importance of the laws surrounding the dispense and storing of drugs was on of the first things that I learnt. My only experience of this had been in a hospital setting‚ where all drugs where stored in lockable trollies or bedside cabinets‚ with those drugs
