Synthesis Paper Focus Question: What role do the Harry Potter books play in children’s education? In my freshman year in high school‚ Mr. Mehta‚ the Head of the English department‚ made some changes to our school’s English curriculum. One of these changes included introducing the fifth book of the Harry Potter series‚ Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix‚ to our reading list. Mr. Mehta’s simple action attracted more attention than ever before! While students lauded his decision‚ most parents

Lecture 5 Lizan A. Majeed Reading Paragraph Purpose Each paragraph in a text has a clear purpose. For example: The first paragraph introduces the topic‚ states the purpose of the text‚ or describes a problem or situation. The body paragraphs develop arguments‚ try to persuade‚ suggest solutions‚ or describe developments. The final paragraph concludes‚ evaluates‚ or discusses consequences. Identifying the purpose of each paragraph helps you understand the text and decide where

Wang Experiment #4 Recrystallization of Pure Phthalic Acid‚ Benzoic Acid and Napthalene Introduction Recrystallization is a important method in purifying organic compounds which are solid. It is an effective method that is important to be familiar with that is essential in the industrial chemical world. This experiment will allow students to be familiarized with the technique of recrystallization by working with phtalic acid‚ benzoic acid and naphthalene from appropriate organic solvents.

During protein digestion‚ a water molecule is added which breaks down the carbonyl-carbon-nitrogen sin the peptide bonds of proteins causing the liberation of amino acids. This process is referred to as proteolysis. Water molecules break down the carbonyl-carbon-nitrogen single bond (peptide bond) that holds single amino acid molecules together (Caroline Ritchie‚ 2013. This process is called hydrolysis and is catalysed by protease. The three main protease enzymes produced during digestion are pepsin

4/27/11 SYNTHESIS AND CHEMILUMINESCENCE OF LUMINOL Abstract: Chemiluminescence occurs in nature and can be found in everyday products. For example‚ the light omitted by fireflies‚ deep sea fish and glow sticks is a result of this process. Luminol was synthesized from from 3-nitrophthalic acid and then combined with potassium ferricyanide and hydrogen peroxide to omit a blue light. The product of this reaction is very unstable and is made by losing a nitrogen and the electrons go from an excited

Synthesis of Methyl Stearate The purpose of this lab was the convert liquid methyl oleate to solid methyl stearate by catalytic hydrogenation. Firstly‚ we produced hydrogen gas using solid mossy zinc and sulfuric acid. Using the hydrogen produced in the previous reaction‚ we were able to convert the liquid methyl oleate to solid crystals of methyl stearate. A mineral oil was also used to bubbler was used to maintain the hydrogen pressure slightly above the atmospheric pressure and to prevent back-diffusion

Prelab 5B Macrocyclic Synthesis OBJECTIVE: The objective this week is to produce Tetraphenylporphyrin and its metal complex. This will be carried out by condensation of 4 equivalents of Benzaldehyde and pyyrole in the presence of propanoic acid. The product will undergo UV/Visible Spectrum tests to determine its lambda max. The lambda max will show us the relationship between a conjugated system and the visible spectrum. PROCEDURE: Step 1: preparation of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP)
