Franc is that 1.15 SF is equal to 1 US $‚ and the annual interest rate on fixed rate one-year deposits of SF is 1.5% and for US$ is 2.5%‚ what is nine-month forward rate for one dollar in terms of SFs? Assuming the same interest rates‚ what is the 18-month forward rate for one SF in US$s? Is this an indirect or a direct rate? If the forward rate is an accurate predictor of exchange rates‚ in this case will the SF get stronger or weaker against the dollar? What does this indicate about the market’s

Reminder: These notes are meant to supplement‚ not replace the laboratory manual. SN1 Reaction Notes Background and Application Substitution Nucleophilic First Order (SN1) reactions are one of the most common type of organic reactions. SN1 reactions can be used to make a wide variety of new compounds. In this experiment‚ t-amyl alcohol will be converted by a SN1 mechanism to 2-chloro-2-methylbutane. Safety Precautions Concentrated Hydrochloric Acid is 12M. It will cause visible destruction

Lab #5: Grignard Reaction – Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol John Kang Chem 152L Performed: 7/20/04 Date submitted: ________________ Lab Partners: Sang Lee‚ Vicky Lai TA: John Stanko Abstract: This experiment explored the synthesis of triphenylmethanol through the use of Grignard reagents. The percent yield of the product was 10% on a relatively humid day. The melting point was calculate to be 127.2oC with a literature value of 162oC. An IR spectrum of the product was taken and used

complex reactions and reaction sequences‚ where raw materials react together to give the product. Such chemical process often releases energy‚ in the form of heat‚ and the reaction is described as exothermic. Many of these reactions may also evolve gases at high rates‚ and could cause reactor over-pressure. Thermal runaway reaction Runaway reactions are thermally unstable reactions where the heat of reaction can raise the temperature of the reactants sufficiently to accelerate the reaction rate out

Elimination Reactions ________________________________________ As described previously‚ primary alkyl halides generally undergo substitution reactions with simple nucleophiles by an SN2 mechanism. Secondary alkyl halides‚ often react with simple basic nucleophiles to give a mixture of products arising from both substitution and elimination. As with substitution reactions‚ the rate at which elimination reactions proceed can be proportional to both the concentration of the base and the concentration

Polymerization reaCTIONS polymers are high-molecular-weight compounds‚ fashioned by the aggregation of many smaller molecules called monomers. Ex. plastics that have so changed society and the natural and synthetic fibers used in clothing are polymers. Classification of polymers Homopolymers - consist of repeated long chains or structures of the same monomer unit. Ex. PVC(polyvinyl chloride) Copolymers - polymers that consist of more than one molecule. Trimers - molecules consisting
