“Abstinence Vs. Harm Reduction” “Drug policy regarding the control of the traditional illicit substances (opiates‚ cocaine‚ cannabis) is currently moving through upbeat times in almost all Western countries. Prohibition on the basis of repressive law enforcement not only seems to fail on a large scale‚ but also to create vast additional costs‚ problems‚ and harm for drug consumers‚ who often find themselves in extreme social‚ economic‚ and health conditions” (Fischer 1995: 389).

1.7 Factors that affect the activity of an enzyme It is important when working with enzymes to understand basic enzymatic theory behind them when selecting conditions to measure the activity of the enzymes. The factors that are known to affect the concentration of enzymes are temperature‚ pH‚ concentration of enzyme‚ concentration of substrate‚ buffer type and concentration‚ the presence of any inhibitors and cofactors (Worthington-biochem.com). 1.7.1.

Spot reduction refers to the fallacy that fat can be targeted for reduction from a specific area of the body and that it can be achieved through exercise of specific muscles in the desired area‚ such as exercising the abdominal muscles in an effort to lose weight in or around one’s midsection. If anyone who said that you should do a certain exercise to burn the fats in a specific area‚ DO NOT take any more advise from that person. There have been many studies that shows spot reduction is not possible

Benzil is produced in the first step of this experiment’s multistep synthesis through the oxidation of benzoin. In order to produce the desired o-diketone‚ the alcohol on benzoin must be oxidized. Nitric acid was the oxidizing agent used in this experiment. As a result‚ the alcohol group on benzoin acted as the nucleophile and attacked the electrophilic nitrogen of nitric acid. As this step forms oxonium‚ excess water in the system deprotonated the oxonium to restore the neutral charge on oxygen

Sodium borohydride Reduction of Benzil Introduction: The Purpose of this experiment is for the students to learn how to use sodium borohydride to reduce benzil to its secondary alcohol product via reduction reaction. This two-step reaction reduces aldehydes by hydrides to primary alcohols‚ and ketones to secondary alcohols. In order for the reaction to occur and to better control the stereochemistry and yield of the product‚ the metal hydride nucleophile of the reducing agents such as LiH‚ LiAlH4

Lab #5: Refraction of Light Theory: Refraction can be defined as the bending of a wave when it enters a medium which causes it to have some reduced speed. In terms of light‚ refraction occurs when the ray passes through some medium which slows its speed; such as water or glass. In this instance the ray tends to bend towards the normal of the medium. The amount of bending or refraction which occurs can be calculated using Snell’s Law (). Objective: To measure the index of refraction of Lucite
