C H A P T E R 5 Basic Concepts from Organic Chemistry 5.1 | INTRODUCTION The fundamental information that environmental engineers and scientists need concerning organic chemistry differs considerably from that which the organic chemist requires. This difference is due to the fact that chemists are concerned principally with the synthesis of compounds‚ whereas environmental engineers and scientists are concerned‚ in the main‚ with how the organic compounds in liquid‚ solid‚ and gaseous wastes

Identification of Unknown Organic Compounds by Melting Point‚ Boiling Point‚ and Infrared Spectroscopy Methods and Background The goal of this laboratory experiment was to determine the structure and identity of an unknown solid and an unknown liquid by using elemental analysis‚ index of hydrogen deficiency‚ infrared spectroscopy‚ melting point (for solid)‚ and boiling point (for liquid). In this laboratory‚ we were given unknown solid “C” and unknown liquid “D”. The empirical formula

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUIDS 1 Torricelli’s barometer used mercury. Pascal duplicated it using French wine of density 984 kg m-3. Determine the height of the wine column for normal atmospheric pressure. 2 A vertical off-shore structure is built to withstand a maximum stress of 109 Pa. Is the structure suitable for putting up on top of an oil well in the ocean? Take the depth of the ocean to be roughly 3 km‚ and ignore ocean currents. 3 A hydraulic automobile lift is designed to lift cars with

MAJOR: MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. “The important thing is not to stop questioning‚ because curiosity has its own reasons for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity‚ of life and of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery everyday” -Albert Einstein. Yes! It is quite true that with proper nurturing of this curiosity one can transform a fascination into an excellent mechanical faculty
