OIL PAINTINGS One of the images that I’m most fond of is the “Madonna and Child with the Chancellor Rolin” by Jan and Eck. This piece is one my favorites because it uses oil. When using oil the images of the paintings seem to realistically speak to me. This particular painting enables both fusion of tones and crisp effects and is unsurpassed for textural variation. The standard consistency of oil paint is a smooth‚ buttery paste. In this scene it depicts the Virgin crowned by a hovering Angel while

Synthesis of Aspirin from Oil of Wintergreen Objectives: In this experiment‚ the Oil of Wintergreen is put into an Erlenmeyer flask containing sodium hydroxide to create sodium salicylate. The solution is then refluxed which means that the solution will be boiled in a base‚ then condensed in a condenser. This replaces the carbon on the ester at carbon 1‚ with an oxygen atom which will have an ionic bond with a sodium anion. This yields sodium salicylate which will be acidified in methanol

They should mostly control the water supply because I think that private companies won’t be able to handle the water resources properly

Two regular people with an extraordinary love. No matter how bad it gets they will prevail. This OIL ON CANVAS painting tells an exceptional story about love‚ conflict‚ compassion‚ resolution‚ and friends. It shows the couple dancing in a rainstorm‚ one person holding an umbrella over the couple‚ with the CANOPY protecting them from rain. Another person running for cover from the rain. It seems as if the dancing couple is completely ignorant of the rain. The artist isn’t talking about a light
