April Goodson CHEM 242L-002 February 20‚ 2013 Oxidation of Cyclohexanone to Adipic Acid Abstract The cyclic ketone cyclohexanone was oxidized to adipic acid using the oxidizing agent nitric acid. The experiment yielded 0.2667 grams of adipic acid‚ giving a percent yield of 113.97%. Although the product was allowed to dry for one week‚ residual moisture was still present in the sample and a melting point could not be obtained. This error in the experiment either resulted from adding too much

the elodea plants are able to grow and photosynthesise the best. This experiment was consisted of 4 different colours of light‚ Blue‚ Green‚ Red and Purple. Hypothesis: I predict that the plant under blue and purple light will have a higher photosynthetic rate because according to the colour spectrum‚ they are of shorter wavelength thus they have a higher energy. The red light and green light will have lower

Chemical Fertilizer vs Organic Fertilizer A chemical fertilizer is defined as any inorganic material of wholly or partially synthetic origin that is added to the soil to sustain plant growth. Organic fertilizers are substances that are derived from the remains or by products of organisms which contain the essential nutrients for plant growth.

We have discussed in class the nature of Huck and Jim’s unusual relationship and the purpose that Jim‚ an African American former slave‚ serves in the novel. I believe the above quotation explains the reason Jim’s character is in the novel‚ by illustrating the moral shift in Huck’s beliefs. This shift is the turning point of Huck’s moral beliefs which he struggles with through the novel. It is clear after this situation that Huck no longer sees Jim as just a slave‚ and Jim’s purpose in the novel

INTRODUCTION For this experiment we studied an oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium and hydrochloric acid solution. We compared the experimental measured amount of a product and the amount predicted by the theoretical calculation of a balanced equation: Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) → MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g) PROCEDURE First we obtained a strip of pre-cut magnesium ribbon‚ cleaned it with steel wool to remove any signs of oxidation from the strip (which would alter our results)‚ and then weighed it (individual

Heat Exchanger Rupture and Ammonia Release The CSB Case Study on the incident‚ examines the events leading up to the rupture of the heat exchanger and the ammonia release‚ and the corresponding emergency response to the event. It is clear that there were many failures and opportunities to correct and prevent this incident from occurring. As they performed their investigation‚ they were able to identify several direct‚ contributing‚ and root causes‚ although they don’t specifically designate

“Kinetics of Ethanol Oxidation” laboratory experiment utilized Beer’s law and spectroscopy to monitor concentration and the rate of ethanol oxidation through the LoggerPro System. This data then helped determine the kinetic rate constant‚ k‚ and the order of the reaction. First‚ the wavelength of maximum absorbance was determined using the LoggerPro interface and a Vernier colorimeter. Beer’s law was then used to determine the molar absorptivity. Finally‚ a kinetic study of ethanol oxidation was completed

Huck and Jim’s relationship is present throughout the novel. It is first seen when Jim risks being seen as a runaway slave when he goes to Jackson Island searching for Huck. This tells us that Jim cares about Huck and is risking his own life for him. Huck promises to help Jim escape the south and become a free man. Even though Huck is raised with racist views on the black part of society he is still willing to help Jim head towards freedom. Their relationship is based on friendship‚ but as time passes
