Chemist from the University of Glasgow in Scotland have taken a step closer towards producing clean hydrogen fuel in a maintainable way. Hydrogen gas is able to be burned to generate electricity without producing lethal releases‚ unlike fossil fuels. It is produced from water releasing them as gas‚ through a process called electrolysis‚ which uses electricity to break the bonds between hydrogen and oxygen. This technique is 30 times faster than the current method‚ and can be powered by renewable

OF CATALASE ON HYDROGEN PEROXIDE The aim of the experiments is to see if increasing the surface area of the enzyme Catalase‚ affects the relative activity of the substrate Hydrogen peroxide. Then to observe and measure the effect the Catalase has on the chemical breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide. My theory is if you keep increasing the surface area of Catalase‚ the more active sites are available to join with the substrate causing an increase in the breakdown of the hydrogen peroxide producing

The North Korean state media released an official statement in December declaring a new weapon of mass destruction has been added to their arsenal: the Hydrogen bomb. In a statement released by a North Korean news agency on Tuesday‚ it was made clear that “the regime’s scientists are in high spirits to detonate H-bombs‚ capable of wiping out the whole territory of the US at once” (Vale). The testing of their alleged H-bomb was said to have occurred last Wednesday. Does North Korea have the right

Title: Preparation and Standardization of a Sodium Hydroxide Solution Objective/Purpose: The objective of this experiment will be the standardization of sodium hydroxide using potassium hydrogen phthalate by the titration method. Introduction: The concentration of solutions can be reported in terms of molarity and normality. Molarity is equal to: HCL‚ HBR‚ H2SO4‚ HNO3 M = mol Solute (mol) (Monoprotic) (Diprotic) _______________ V(L)g solutions (L)

believe that if the amount of sodium citrate is too low or too high‚ the sodium alginate solution would not form into a ball. The recommended amount of sodium citrate to be added to the sodium alginate solution was ⅛ teaspoon‚ or 0.5 grams. We supposed that if we exceeded this measurement‚ the sodium citrate would unbalance the whole solution‚ making the balls deform. If we added too little of the sodium citrate‚ we thought that there would be too little for the sodium citrate to fully do its job of

procedures: 1. Hydrogen G. When hydrogen gas comes in close contact with fire‚ it generates a loud noise similar to a popped piece of popcorn and it blows out the flame. 2. Oxygen B. When manganese reacts with H2O2 small bubbles form around the pieces of manganese and carbonates the whole solution. E. When I put the glowing toothpick in the oxygen gas it caused the toothpick to light up instantly for a short period and then made it glow brighter red. 3. Hydrogen and Oxygen Mixture
