CASE STUDY 1: Xstrata Produced Acidic Oxide – SULFUR DIOXIDE Industrial Process – Sulfur Dioxide is an acidic oxide produced domestically and industrially in many ways. Xstrata‚ particularly Mount Isa Mines LTD‚ produces sulfur dioxide as a by-product from the extraction of copper from ores. Copper ore mined in Australia is predominantly chalcopyrite (CuFeS2)‚ a sulfide ore of copper. The extraction of copper begins with crushing the ore and subjecting the crushed ore to froth floatation. In

The framers of the Constitution created a political system based on limited government. The main point of this separation of powers was to limit any one branch from exercising the main functions of another; this starts in the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches. There are three distinctive branches‚ the legislative branch‚ the executive branch‚ and the judicial branch. Checks and balances came to play when the divisions of the branches were determined. With checks and balances

Lab #2 – Separation of a Mixture of Solids Abstract The mixed solution contained benzoic acid‚ iron‚ table salt‚ and sand. When separated using water‚ fuel‚ or a magnet‚ their characteristics and properties changed. The mass of the entire mixed solids was 6.6 grams. When the magnet was used‚ the iron was immediately picked up. The mass for that was 1.7 grams. The table salt was 1.2 grams. Benzoic acid mass was 0.8 grams and the sand was 1.4 grams after being separated. Introduction The objective

Separating Acids and Neutral Compounds by Solvent Extraction Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to use solvent extraction techniques in order to separate a mixture consisting of a carboxylic acid (p-toulic acid)‚ a phenol (p-tert-butylphenol)‚ and a neutral compound (acetanilide). Extraction is the process of selectively dissolving one or more of the compounds of a mixture into an appropriate solvent‚ the solution that contains these dissolved compounds is called an extract (Manion
