SYNTHESIS AND CHEMISTRY OF K2S2O8 ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ a sample of K2S2O8 was prepared by the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of H2SO4 and K2SO4. The peroxodisulfate anion‚ S2O82-‚ was also observed for its ability to serve as a counterion for precipitation by preparing a copper (II) complex by reacting hydrated copper (II) sulfate with ammonium peroxodisulfate in the presence of pyridine. This same ability‚ coupled with its strong oxidizing ability allowed for stabilization of

Organic agriculture‚ seen as a niche agriculture sector‚ is promoted as an effective and sustainable approach to food security‚ farmer’s profit instigation‚ and resource management. Aside from organic farming‚ the Department of Agriculture welcomed agricultural activities that encouraged active in the preservation of the environment‚ such as agriculture tourism and ecotourism as an additional initiative for agricultural development. Locally‚ the La Top Organic Farmers’

HW: p.491(1-7) 1. Compare the general properties of acids with the general properties of bases. Acids: Aqueous solutions of acids have a sour taste. Acids change the color of acid-base indicators. Some acids react with active metals and release hydrogen gas‚H2. Acids react with bases to produce salts and water. Acids conduct electric current. Bases: Aqueous solutions of bases taste bitter. Bases change the color of acid-base indicators. Dilute aqueous solutions of bases feel slippery

The Benefits of Organic Food—Draft #1 Organic food‚ once only found in health food stores‚ is now a consistent element at local supermarkets. So what is the difference between a conventionally grown apple and an organic one? The answer is in the way the crop is grown and what it is and is not exposed to. In order to be labeled “organic” the farmer who grew it used renewable resources and conservation of soil and water methods. Also‚ organic farmers do not use conventional pesticides or weed killers
