The book Into Thin Air by Jon Krakauer tells the story of his Everest expedition in 1996. Though ideally everyone would survive this expedition unharmed‚ this was unfortunately not the case; all the dangers of Everest can lead to hypoxia‚ frostbite‚ falling into a crevasse‚ or High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE). Krakauer describes how Ngawang Topche‚ a Sherpa who assisted Scott Fischer’s Everest expedition‚ developed HAPE while climbing the mountain and the effect it had on him. High Altitude Pulmonary

that today physics is classified into a large group of special branches. These branches arise because of distinguished by the particular area study‚ the investigation methods and so on. An important branch that has developed recently is thin film physics. The thin film physics is deals with systems which have only one common property that their dimension is very small‚ though all other physical properties of such systems may be different‚ as well as methods of investigating. Generally‚ we investigate

Organic Chem II Lab 2/15/15 Friedel-Crafts Acylation of Ferrocene and Column Chromatography Introduction: The intention of this lab is to analyze the formation of acetylferrocene using column chromatography. The Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction created acetylferrocene and diacetylferrocene‚ using phosphoric acid as a catalyst for the reaction between acetic anhydride and ferrocene (once applying heat). During column chromatography‚ a solution is passed through a filtration system of silica‚ sand‚ and

Lab #3: Ion Exchange Chromatography Objective The purpose of this experiment was to separate proteins on the basis of their net charge at a particular pH. In cation exchange chromatography positively charged molecules are attracted to a negatively charged column. Conversely‚ in anion exchange chromatography‚ negatively charged molecules are attracted to a positively charged column. Experimental results could be monitored in a predictable way by controlling running pH‚ salt concentration‚ and by
