In this experiment the objective was to perform a Diels-Alder reaction using cyclopentadiene and maleic anhydride to synthesize the product‚ cis-Norbornene-5‚6-endo-dicarboxylic anhydride. The Diels-Alder reaction is one of the most important reactions in organic chemistry and was first investigated by Otto Diels and Kurt Alder in Germany. It is a [4+2] concerted cycloaddition reaction which involves a diene and a dienophile. The Diel-Alder reaction are mainly used for creating new carbon-carbon

Rubidium is a chemical element that was discovered in 1861 by Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff‚ in Heidelberg‚ Germany through a scientific process of flame spectroscopy. During the process‚ Kirchhoff and Heidelberg noticed bright red lines in its emission spectrum which caused them to choose the name Rubidium derived from the Latin word rubidus‚ meaning "deep red". Rubidium is a chemical element with symbol Rb and atomic number 37 and an atomic mass of 85.4678. Rubidium is a soft‚ silvery-white

ust imagine drinking a nice cold Minute Maid Pink Lemonade on a hot day‚ or a cold Red Powerade after a long hard practice. The cold refreshing drink rushes through your body and quenches your thirst. However‚ do you know what you are actually drinking‚ and how much of that drink is contaminated with dye? In this experiment‚ with the use of a spectrophotometer‚ the amount of concentrated dye in three drinks will be tested. First‚ the dye itself will be examined to see what the optimal wavelength

at 558 nm to 605 nm in the absorption spectrum [28]. Since there have been some reports on the complex formation between Cys and Pb2+ in an aqueous solution [30‚ 31]‚ the sensing selectivity of CA-2Pb2+ toward Cys was investigated by absorption spectroscopy. The color changes and absorption spectral study of CA-2Pb2+ (50 μM) were performed upon addition of 21various amino acids and peptide (100 μM) such as Ala‚ Arg‚ Asn‚ Asp‚ Cys‚ Gln‚ Glu‚ Gly‚ His‚ Hcy‚ Ile‚ Leu‚ Lys‚ Met‚ Phe‚ Pro‚ Ser‚ Thr‚ Trp

"How Is Helium Produced?" Production: Although Helium is one of the most common elements in the universe it is a rare gas on earth. It exists in the atmosphere in such small quantities (less than five parts per million) that recovering it from the air is uneconomical. Helium is produced as a by-product of the refining of natural gas‚ which is carried out on a commercial scale in the USA and Poland. In these areas natural gas contains a relatively high concentration of Helium which has accumulated
