Gas chromatography (GC) is a chromatography technique where the separation of individual components (analytes) from a sample relies on their differing distribution between a mobile and stationary phase. The mobile phase carries the analytes through the stationary phase. In GC‚ it’s an inert gas (usually helium or nitrogen). The gas must be inert‚ so it won’t react with the sample to give a false reading. The stationary phase is a substance fixed in place to which the sample adsorbs because

Horizontal hydrofracking is a means of tapping shale deposits containing natural gas that were previously inaccessible by conventional drilling. Vertical hydrofracking is used to extend the life of an existing well once its productivity starts to run out‚ sort of a last resort. Horizontal fracking differs in that it uses a mixture of 596 chemicals

The Bhopal disaster‚ also referred to as the Bhopal gas tragedy‚ was a gas leak incident in India‚ considered the world’s worst industrial disaster.[1] It occurred on the night of 2–3 December 1984 at the Union Carbide India Limited (UCIL) pesticide plant in Bhopal‚ Madhya Pradesh. Over 500‚000 people were exposed tomethyl isocyanate gas and other chemicals. The toxic substance made its way in and around the shantytowns located near the plant.[2] Estimates vary on the death toll. The official immediate

They are usually made of glass or plastic‚ and while most are scored for measurement‚ some can measure changes digitally. The single-tube manometer measures only the pressure of a liquid‚ since there is no alternate place to compare gases. A U-shaped manometer essentially pits two different gas pressures against one another‚ and measures the strength of the captured gas. The free-flowing gas is usually air at the

Data and Conclusions: The purpose of this experiment was to learn how to use distillation and gas chromatography to separate and identify different compounds from a given mixture. There are several kinds of distillation methods. However‚ the method that we used in this experiment was fractional distillation. This method is used when trying to separate two different volatile compounds whose boiling points differ by 40-50°C or more. If the boiling points are too close‚ this method

Sansui-ga is a form of Japanese monochrome landscape paintings‚ the preferred genre among Zen painters in the 14th-16th century. Sansui-ga painting is done in Chinese-inspired sumi-e or suiboku-ga‚ an ink wash painting style‚ which uses black ink in various concentrations. Gradations of ink are used to create a sense of light and shade‚ as well as modulated brushstrokes and lines to create a sense of volume and rhythm. (Parent) Vast landscapes on screens and sliding doors set a serene and contemplative

20 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO CONSERVE ENERGY Whenever you save energy‚ you not only save money‚ you also reduce the demand for such fossil fuels as coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas. Less burning of fossil fuels also means lower emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ the primary contributor to global warming‚ and other pollutants. You do not have to do without to achieve these savings. There is now an energy efficient alternative for almost every kind of appliance or light fixture. That means that consumers

What needs to be done to achieve greenhouse gas reduction targets by 2020? Since the beginning of Industrial Revolution‚ concentrations of carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ and nitrous oxide have all risen dramatically because of human activities. Fossil fuel combustion‚ land-use change‚ increasingly intensive agriculture‚ and an expanding global human population are the primary causes for these increases. Other greenhouse gases found in our planet’s atmosphere include water vapor and ozone. Carbon
