EMISSIONS FROM ADIPIC ACID AND NITRIC ACID PRODUCTION A C K N O WL E D G E M E N T S This paper was written by Heike Mainhardt (ICF Incorporated) and reviewed by Dina Kruger (USEPA). ABSTRACT Nitrous oxide (N2O) is generated as a by-product during the production of adipic acid and nitric acid. The main use for adipic acid is as a component of nylon-6/6; thus production trends are closely correlated with nylon consumption trends. Worldwide‚ there are very few adipic acid plants. The U.S. is

Experiment 2: Separation of a Mixture of Solids Purpose: This experiment allowed me to learn different separation techniques for various substances based on their specific chemical properties. Procedure: I began this experiment by using a magnet to pick up and collect the iron filings out of the mixture. Then the sand was separated by placing the mixture into a beaker and boiling it in distilled water in order to dissolve the salt and benzoic acid‚ once boiling the liquid was poured out leaving

expected melting point. After its temperature reached the plateau‚ the temperature increment was set at 1°C per minute‚ and the melting point range of 152°C-154°C was recorded. After standardizing the melting device‚ a small sample of unknown carboxylic acid was placed in a capillary tube‚ and an arbitrary plateau of 200°C was set. When the sample started to melt at 150°C‚ another capillary tube containing a small amount of unknown sample was placed in the melting device‚ and the plateau was set to 135°C

BASE DETAILS - ESSAY In the poem‚ "Base Details"‚ SiegFried Sassoon expresses his great disgust towards the majors in the military. He is horrified and appalled at the way the majors act while men are dying out in the battle field. Mr. Sassoon is so furious towards the majors that it takes more than just one word to describe how indignified Sassoon is. These great feelings of anger are derived from the fact that the majors are living a life of luxury while sending young men "up the line" out

Citric Acid Names of chemical substance- Chemical formula: C6H8O7. Elements present in citric acid are; carbon‚ hydrogen and oxygen. Bonding- All the elements in citric acid are non-metals. Citric acid has a covalent bond type. History- in the 8th century jabir ibn hayyar a Persian alchemist was credited with the discovery of citric acid. in 1784 the separation of citric acid from citrus fruits occurred when Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele separated citric acid from lemon juice.

With reference to acid-base balance explore the role of the respiratory system in maintaining blood pH? ‘We live and die at the cellular level’ (Reid‚ 2011). Homeostasis is crucial for normal cellular function. Acid-base homeostasis is the part of human homeostasis and refers to the balance between the production and elimination of H+ hydrogen ions (pH) within the body fluids (William‚ Simpkins‚ 2001‚ p.236).

PRINCIPLES OF CHEMISTRY LAB I Experiment 2 Separation Of Mixtures INTRODUCTION A mixture can simply be defined as a substance that is made up or consists of two or more elements and/or compounds that are physically combined but that have not reacted chemically to form new substances. A mixture may be a solid‚ liquid‚ gas‚ or some combination of those states. Mixtures can be found almost every wher in our everyday lifes and some common examples are * sand and water * salt and water

Separation and Identification of Plant Pigments by Paper Chromatography Biology 1107L Introduction All living organisms require energy for their chemical processes. The ultimate source of this energy is the sun. Plants convert light energy into the chemical energy of sugars. During photosynthesis pigments are used to capture light energy. Pigments of green plants can easily be separated and identified using a technique called paper chromatography. The purpose of this

Nomenclature for Ionic Compounds Ionic compounds consist of cations (positive ions) and anions (negative ions). The nomenclature‚ or naming‚ of ionic compounds is based on the names of the component ions. Here are the principal naming conventions for ionic compounds‚ along with examples to show how they are used: Roman NumeralsA Roman numeral in parentheses‚ followed by the name of the element‚ is used for elements that can form more than one positive ion. This is usually seen with metals. You
