of the Upper Nepean Catchment. The following is a summary of factors that affect water quality. Water may contain several ions‚ namely anions and cations which are toxic to humans. Hardness is the scum on water surface from significant concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions. Total dissolved solids is the measure of dissolved solids that are ionic in water. Turbidity is the presence of suspended solids in water which reduces penetration of light‚ resulting in a decrease concentration of

CHE 242 Tutorial 3: Problems & Answers Week 4: Feb 2- 6‚ 2009 1. Consider a gas that occupies 1.00 dm3 at a pressure of 2.00 bar. If the gas is compressed isothermally at constant external pressure‚ Pext‚ so that the final volume is 0.500 dm3‚ what is the smallest value Pext can have? Calculate the work involved using this value of Pext. Solution For compression to occur‚ the value of Pext must be at least as large as the final pressure of the gas. P1 = 2.00 bar‚ V1 = 1.00 dm3‚ V2 = 0.500

Baking Project There are several chemical reactions taking place in the general baking of cakes. Every ingredient has its own function and causes a different reaction Synthesis: * Egg yolks (modify molecule’s structure) helps the oil-based and water-based components of the cake mix together. When eggs are cooked‚ the protein molecules become uncurled when exposed to heat and create new molecular bonds with other nearby protein molecules. When the egg is completely cooked‚ it helps form a

William ‘Bill’ Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Hamlet‚ King of Denmark‚ a turn of the 16th century revenge tragedy play‚ is today still a relevant and delving tale‚ that stands as Bill’s reconceptualization of the genre. The genre was popular at the time of Hamlet’s creation‚ and thereby retains traditional elements of a revenge tragedy. However‚ and after adding many dramatic elements‚ a flicker of an Oedipus complex‚ and a touch of humor‚ Bill analyses and explores the revenge tragedy on a more complex

BIOCATALYSIS IN ORGANIC SOLVENTS: FUNDAMENTALS ENZYMES IN ORGANIC SYNTHESIS 1. Enzymes catalyze a broad spectrum of reactions with high turnover numbers. Rate enhancements approach 1012 fold. 2. Enzymes may accept a wide range of substrates. 3. Enzymes are highly regio and stereoselective. 4. Enzyme reactions take place under mild conditions; this minimizes problems of isomerization and racemization. 5. Enzymatic processes are less hazardous and polluting than conventional chemistry-based methodologies

Aim: To examine a number of different chemical reactions and determine if they are exothermic or endothermic. Apparatus: • Test tubes {Around 10-12 in number} • Test-tube rack • Spatula • Digital thermometer { ± 0.1° C} • Digital balance {± 0.01 g} • Measuring cylinder {± 0.5cm³} • Different chemicals Introduction/Theory: Exothermic reactions are those reactions that release energy in the form of heat. Endothermic reactions need to absorb energy in the form

Our objective for the Sherlock Holmes Experiment was to illustrate that some chemicals can be identified or differentiated by simple chemical tests‚ such as solubility‚ pH‚ or color tests. In our group we had to test come common powders such as Alka-Seltzer‚ baking soda‚ flour‚ Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)‚ and salt. Other chemicals that were used to do this experiment were vinegar‚ and Iodine 2 Solution. The equipment used to do this experiment was red litmus paper‚ and 5 test tubes per group.

Alana Rogers Date of experiment:11-20-13 Date submitted: 11-23-13 Determination of Water Hardness Using a Titrator Purpose: This purpose of this experiment was to determine the hardness of the local water supply. Be familiar with using a titrator. To tell wether your water is hard or soft. Hard water however does not create a threat‚ but is bad for your pipes causing them to crust. To measure water’s “softness” you are truly measuring the amount of CaCO3 in the water. Procedure: Assemble
