As you first read the Banana Time case you might be asking yourself‚ “what do I do with this case? There are no questions at the end to which I can simply respond”. Attempting to analyze a social system or group such as described in the Banana Time case can be an awkward‚ chaotic experience‚ especially at first. Start with your primary task which is to 1) identify each of the social system elements (as listed in bullet points below and on page 83) and 2) to see if you can describe the interaction

Effect of temperature on banana ripening Individual Student Research Project 2012 Aim To investigate which temperatures slow or quicken the ripening process of bananas. Introduction and Background Information Thousands of dollars are spent to ripen bananas to the perfect point while transporting them so that they ripen‚ do not over ripen and remain edible when they reach the stores. Some people think that the temperature has an effect on the ripening of bananas. This experiment will be testing

Lab 5: Preparation of Synthetic Banana Oil September 20th‚ 2012 Purpose: The main purpose of this experiment was to synthesize banana oil (isopentyl acetate.) Ester are often prepared by the Fischer esterification method‚ which involves heating a carboxylic acid with an alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst. Theory: Synthesize isopentyl acetate by combining isopentyl alcohol with acetic acid and sulfuric acid and then heating the reaction mixture under reflux for an hour. The alcohol

Preparation of Synthetic Banana Oil Introduction: In this lab the synthesis‚ purification‚ and characterization of isoamyl acetate‚ or banana oil‚ was determined. The synthesis was completed by a reversible esterification reaction which required the heating of glacial acetic acid and isoamyl alcohol‚ combined with a sulfuric acid catalyst in hexane. In order to increase the efficiency of the reaction‚ LeChatelier’s Principle is utilized by removing water from the products. As a result‚ the reaction

aMicroscale Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate (Banana Oil) Objective: Carried out the microscale synthesis of isopentyl acetate by direct esterification of acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol. This was an acid catalyzed Fischer esterification. Both extraction and distillation were employed to obtain a pure product. IR spectroscopy and gas chromatography were used to determine purity of the final product. Reagents: * Compound: | * MW (g/mol): | * MP (°C): | * BP (°C): | * Density (g/mL):

Light in Loneliness In her novel Kitchen‚ Banana Yoshimoto argues that obstacles are overcome together- not only by the individuals‚ but also by the support of the extended‚ closely-related “family” who cares for them. To get this message across‚ Yoshimoto uses the light motif to emphasize the existence of hope with a positive mindset. Yoshimoto begins by pointing out that behind every person is the support of friends‚ family‚ and even the people in the community. She argues that the distinction
