PREPARATION OF ALUMINA POWDERS 1. BAYERS PROCESS INTRODUCTION The Bayer Process was invented and patented in 1887 by Austrian scientist Karl Josef Bayer. Two to three tonnes of bauxite are required to produce one tonne of alumina. 90% of the global alumina supply of around 90 million tonnes is used in aluminium production. DEFINITION The Bayer process is the principal industrial means of refining bauxite to produce alumina (aluminium oxide). The aluminium oxide must be purified before it

Chapter 1 Chemical Reactions and Equations Q.1. Why should magnesium ribbon be cleaned before burning in air ? Ans: Magnesium ribbon is a very reactive metal. When stored it reacts with oxygen to form a layer of magnesium oxide on its surface. This layer of magnesium oxide being a stable compound prevents further reaction of magnesium with oxygen. The magnesium is cleaned before burning in air to remove this layer so that the metal can be exposed to air properly. Q.2. Write the balanced

corrosion for a much longer period of time. Powder coating is different from painting. There are no liquids or solvents. Therefore‚ it is the ultimate coating for environmental friendliness. Being dry‚ the powder overspray can be reclaimed for very high application efficiency. It uses heat to convert its state from a powder to a continuous film. The powder coating materials are basically plastics that have been ground into a fine powder. The coating powder is formulated with plastic resins‚ pigments

Abstract In this experiment‚ the Ksp for calcium sulfate dihydrate‚ CaSO4·2H2O‚ by titrating 4 times a calcium sulfate dihydrate solution with diprotic EDTA‚ H2(EDTA)2-. For each trial we found the Ksp by means of molarities and activities. The results for the Ksp using only molarities was very different than the Ksp using activities. The average Ksp using molarity only was 2.26 x 10-4 and the average Ksp using activity turned out to be 2.31 x 10-5. The actual Ksp however‚ is 3.14 x 10-5. A percent

Undoped and Ce doped ZnO thin films were prepared by the sol-gel process. Zinc acetate dehydrate was dissolved in a mixture of absolute ethanol and monoethanolamine (MEA) yielding to a precursor concentration of 0.4 M .The MEA to zinc acetate molar ratio was set to 1. For doped films‚ cerium nitrate was added to the mixture with an atomic percentage fixed at 0.1‚ 0.3‚ 0.5‚ 0.7‚ and 0.9 at.% Ce‚ respectively. The resulting sols were magnetically stirred at 60°C for 1 hour and then aged at room temperature

Essay on enzymes Biological washing powder Hee-Jun Park 8B We have used enzymes over many years to make many clothing and also foods or drinks‚ such as‚ drinks‚ bread‚ cheese‚ beer and wine. Even though‚ the first person that realized how to make these noticed nothing about enzymes. There are many types of enzymes existing to help our industrial life. And the difference of each enzyme is for us to do different things. The use of enzyme in industry has become very central in the modern domain. Enzymes

Abstract Gravimetric analysis describes the methods for finding the chemical constituent of analyte in a solution through analytical chemistry. This method uses the mass of solid SO42-‚ with an unknown quantity and quality‚ to qualitatively determine the makeup of the solid SO3-. Two separate experiments with the initial compounds of BaCl2 and SO42- were put into solution to allow for the BaSO4 precipitate to form. Through filtration and ignition of precipitate containing ashless papers

Research question/Aim Extract copper from copper oxide by reduction using butane gas Hypothesis The butane gas will reduce the copper oxide and leave behind pure copper. This will allow us to find the empirical formula of the copper oxide as well as the masses of oxygen and copper Variables Dependant variable The dependant variable will be the reduction of the copper oxide which will be calculated at different temperatures. Independent variable The independent variable here

The Displacement Reactions Purpose: to see how displacement reaction works with different chemicals and what chemical has more reactivity series then other Hypothesis: Iron + Copper Sulfate: Iron will displace copper because it is more reactive and it is going to end up as Iron Sulphide + Copper Copper + Silver Nitrate: Copper will displace Silver because it is more reactive and it is going to end up as Copper Nitride + Magnesium + Copper oxide: Magnesium will displace Copper because it is
