Explanatory Synthesis A countless number of children in the United States were taught to believe that you could accomplish anything if you worked hard. This American dream has now become an American nightmare. According to the information in the Hart Research Associations titled “Raising the Bar‚” “ How the Rich are getting Richer and Poor are getting Poorer‚” and the Workforce Commission powerpoint‚ Americans are faced with many obstacles to learn how to survive in the economy.

than the fact that he was Mexican (Ridgeway 167). Racism is objectively defined as any practice of ethnic discrimination or segregation. Fortunately‚ racial violence is steadily declining as the turn of the century approaches. Now a new form of racism‚ covert racism‚ has recently sprung from the pressures of political correctness. This new form of racism‚ although slowly declining‚ still shows signs of strong support (Piazza 86). Covert racism assumes a form of civil disobedience against politically

Experiment 2 and 3: Synthesis of Aspirin and Determination of Melting Point A. Abstract Aspirin is the common name for the compound acetylsalicylic acid‚ widely used as a fever reducer and as a pain killer. The first part of the experiment aims to synthesize aspirin from the reaction of salicylic acid with acetic anhydride with the aid of phosphoric acid as a catalyst. The second part of the experiment aims to assess the purity of aspirin through the determination of its melting point and

Synthesis of DEET Abstract: For this experiment m-toluic acid was reacted with thionyl chloride resulting in a nucleophilic acyl substitution which could then be used to create DEET with excess diethyl amine (Figure 1). This was done by adding diethyl amine drop wise using a seperatory funnel which resulted in a gas formation which was controlled with a condenser attached to a gas vacuum. The resulting mixture was then washed to remove excess acids and bases and rotovapped. DEET was synthesized

Experiment 23: Synthesis of an Alkene April 5‚ 2013 Purpose: Results and Discussion The weight of our n-Butyl Bromide sample (actual yield) was 0.09g. The percent yield was found to be 4.38%. Only 0.09g of the theoretical 2.055g yield was obtained. The boiling point was 104° C‚ which is higher than the literature value of 101° C. This is due to the sample being somewhat impure‚ as impurities tend to increase boiling point. When IR spectroscopy was performed‚ there were no OH stretches

Argumentative Synthesis on Race and Racism In comparison to the almighty universe in which people all live in‚ human beings are merely a speck of dust at the size of it all. Then here are these beings on planet earth‚ with all 7 billion people under the same moon‚ divided. No longer are human equals as beings‚ but separate because of the system of ignorance‚ exploitation‚ and power used to oppress people on the basis of ethnicity‚ culture‚ mannerisms‚ and culture (Marable 1).
