October 9‚ 2013 Partner(s): Acetylsalicylic Acid Synthesis Theory. This experiment was carried out to see how the hydroxyl group on the benzene ring in salicylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form an ester‚ and to make aspirin. Synthesis of Acetylsalicylic Acid occurs by protonation of carbonyl (C=O) group‚ and a nucleophilic attack of OH on the acetic anhydride. The ferric chloride test and melting point were used to test the purity of the results. A hypothesized recovery rater of above

Peter Mehnert Rhet 105 Ms. Paterson 11/14/12 Extended Synthesis: Cigarette Smoking Tobacco has played an important role in America from the beginning. It was grown as a cash crop by the Jamestown settlers in 1612‚ but over the years the popular opinion has changed about tobacco. Tobacco is used to make cigarettes‚ which have been extremely popular‚ now known to be extremely dangerous. Even the warnings on the cigarette box have changed to a statement much more alarming. In the 1960s‚ the warning

Synthesis of Information In summary‚ the articles researched were divided into four main categories. The categories all focused on something different. The categories were; the perception kids have on food‚ communities raising healthy kids‚ nutritional awareness and the school context. The first two articles had the common theme of how children view food and to find what children thought and felt about healthy food. The third article was aimed towards parents. The theme of this article was how

Chris Goodman Essay Assignment #2: Explanatory Synthesis Explanatory Synthesis of Childhood Obesity Childhood obesity is a major problem in the United States. There are multiple reasons for this problem including the child’s school system‚ the access to technology in young children and the child’s genes. It is sometimes inevitable for a child to be obese due to their genes. There are some precautions being made to help this problem. Some might work but others might fail. Childhood obesity

agent for rabies. The rabies virus is enveloped‚ it is covered/surrounded by a covering for protection. The rhabdovirus contains up of a helical ribonucleoprotein core(RNP)‚ and an envelope that is surrounding the viru (CDC‚2011). Eukaryotes have a synthesis process between protein and RNA that forms the ribonucleoprotein. The rabies genome has five protein components: nucleoprotein‚ phosphoprotein‚ matrix protein‚ glycoprotein‚ and polymerase protein(CDC‚2011).

Synthesis Argument Do you want to have everything decided for you? Does that make you feel safe and comfortable? How about confused and concerned? Do you see too many laws that restrict your freedom? Government protects people from threats and is not to unnecessarily legislate that restricts freedom and governs morality but to leave that to the realm of individual responsibility. Government is defined by the Webster Dictionary as "the system by which a state or community is governed." In America

The Effects Sodium Chloride has on pond water Introduction Ponds are depressions in the ground that fill with water from either run offs or melting snow or rain fall from many different weather changes. There are two types of ponds permanent and temporary. Ponds tend to be much smaller in size and are usually only six to ten feet in depth. This differs from a lake because the size of a lake is much larger and is much deeper. The temperature of a pond is usually the same from top to bottom and

Abstract This experiment is about the synthesis of 3-nitrobenzaldehyde through nitration. The nitration of benzaldehyde is an example of an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction‚ in which a proton of an aromatic ring is replaced by a nitro group. Many aromatic substitution reactions are known to occur when an aromatic substrate is allowed to react with a suitable electrophilic reagent‚ and many other groups besides nitro may be introduced into the ring. Although the reaction produced a low
