A phase transfer catalyst or PTC in chemistry is a catalyst which facilitates the migration of a reactant in a heterogeneous system from one phase into another phase where reaction can take place. Ionic reactants are often soluble in an aqueous phase but insoluble in an organic phase unless the phase transfer catalyst is present. Phase transfer catalysis (also PTC) refers to the acceleration of the reaction by the phase transfer catalyst. Phase transfer catalysts for anion reactants are often

Oratorical Piece Theme: “Students as Catalysts for Peace” Friends‚ let me begin by quoting you a line lifted from Eleanor Roosevelt. “It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.” This ladies and gentlemen challenges Juan De la Cruz‚ the majority common Filipino people. And what is more moiling to this are the sweet and sour additives and influences of the society. My friends‚ as we all know Philippines is somehow ignorant

Patrick McCrystal Enzymes: Natural Catalysts Enzymes are catalytic proteins‚ meaning they speed up chemical reactions without beingused up or altered permanently in the process. Although various enzymes use different methods‚all accomplish catalysis by lowering the activation energy for the reaction‚ thus allowing it tooccur more easily. Enzymes have very specific shapes (conformations). Part of the conformationis the active site of the enzyme‚ where the actual catalysis occurs. The specific molecule

Conflict is a catalyst for change Everything changes daily for a number of different reasons and one of them can be conflict. Conflict usually only brings us tragedy and sadness due to its process which changes a lot of different things. The result of conflict which is usually death is one obvious change it brings to us that change the peaceful life into a chaos. During the process of conflict‚ other changes will also be made. During conflicts‚ it is possible that our positions get changed. When

The Law of Three or The Three-Fold Law is the belief and principle on which magic is used. This is where the law relates to the use of power and energy‚ for when used‚ the power is then returned to the sender‚ three times the level it was sent out. The Rule of Three (also Three-fold Law or Law of Return) is a religious tenet. It states that whatever energy a person puts out into the world‚ be it positive or negative‚ will be returned. This is a cautionary one. It also‚ if heeded‚ keeps individuals

The Science of Catalysts and Catalytic Converters Hosam Sadek February 19th‚ 2013 Catalyst is a term that is used for a chemical agent that selectively increases the rate of a reaction without itself being affected. In the human body‚ enzymes are naturally occurring catalysts responsible for many essential biochemical reactions. These catalysts participate in the reactions‚ but are neither reactants nor products of the reaction they catalyze. The only difference between a catalyzed reaction and

Catalysts in the Women’s Suffrage Movement There were particular women who worked tirelessly throughout their lives to obtain the right for women to vote‚ and they became some of the most important catalysts involved in the fight for the women’s suffrage from 1848 to 1920. Alice Paul was an American suffragist‚ women’s rights activist‚ and the main leader of the campaign for the Nineteenth Amendment which was ratified in 1920. Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton were earlier social reformers

In order for organisms to survive‚ they must get rid of this toxin. Hydrogen peroxide in plants and animals occurs as a waste product of cellular respiration. One chemical reaction turns the hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Enzymes have specific environmental conditions which have positive
