Characterization: There are generally two types of characterization‚ explicit (direct) and implicit (indirect) characterization. Explicit characterization: A character is portrayed by direct description of his outward appearance and by directly naming his human and mental qualities or abilities. Implicit characterization: A character is portrayed by what he does or by describing his environment. From what he does or from his surroundings one draws conclusions as to what kind of character

Lab 1: Alkene Addition: Bromination of (E)-stilbene I. Introduction: 1. The purpose of the experiment was to perform an electrophilic addition reaction by using pyridinium tribromide to brominate (E)-stilbene and to identify whether it formed the meso- or racemic product through melting point analysis. 2. This is the mechanism for the bromination of (E)-stilbene. However‚ this is the mechanism for Br2 and in class we us Pyridinium Tribromide instead due to the difficulties associated

Experiment: Comparing reactivities of alkanes and alkenes Aim: To compare the reactivities of an alkane and an alkene with bromine water and a solution of potassium permanganate (KMnO4). Equipment: • 4 test tubes • Test-tube rack • 4 pipettes Safety: safety glasses must be worn to prevent injury to the eyes. Ensure room is well ventilated whilst using the hydro carbons. Method: 1. Place 1 ml of sample A (cyclohexane) into a test tube containing 4 mls of the bromine water solution. Record

Characters are the people who inhabit a story. They must be motivated‚ consistent‚ and plausible to be classified as true characters. In "Everyday Use" and "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall‚" the authors explore of characterization. Both of the short stories have stock characters such as Grandma Dee from "Everyday Use and John from "The Jilting of Granny Weatherall‚" but the characters that spark the most interest are the round characters such as Dee and Mrs. Weatherall. In "Everyday Use" Grandma

Preparation and Ferroelectric Characterization of Calcium doped Barium Titanate ceramics ABSTRACT Barium Titanate (BT) is widely used in electro-optical and electroceramic industry because of its ferroelectric‚ thermoelectric and piezoelectric properties when it assumes the tetragonal structure. In addition to its Lead free composition‚ its perovskite structure allows variation of ionic size and small displacement of atoms that lead to the distortion of the structure which has a profound

Bromination of Trans-Cinnamic Acid Christopher B. Martin CHEM 3411 1 Mechanism of Bromine Addition to Alkenes Understanding the chemical mechanism (order of bonds broken and made as well as intermediates formed) has a great value in chemical synthesis. The chemical mechanism of a reaction will influence the rate of the reaction‚ the stereochemistry of the product(s)‚ and the extent of possible undesired side reactions. Organic reaction mechanisms investigate the path towards a desired product

Jacobsen’s Method of Epoxidation of an Alkene | | Abstract Various types of reactions were completed to first create and then use Jacobsen’s catalyst in the asymmetric epoxidation of an unknown alkene with bleach in the laboratory. The chiral epoxide synthesized was then characterized with GC/MS and NMR. With this information the unknown alkene was able to be identified as 4-chlorostyrene. Introduction Organisms have evolved with mechanisms that use specific enantiomers of molecules

Introduction In this experiment‚ exo-norborneol was produced by a hydration of alkenes by using an acid and excess water. Hydration of alkenes is the acid-catalyzed addition of water to a carbon-carbon pi bond that leads to the formation of an alcohol. Norbornene is a bridged cyclic hydrocarbon‚ this molecule contains a double bond that induces significant ring strain‚ and therefore‚ it is highly reactive. In order for this reaction to occur‚ equilibrium must be established between the hydration
