Coca-Cola recipe was formulated at Pemberton's Eagle Drug and Chemical House in Columbus, Georgia. The recipe was developed into a French Coca Wine. In 1886, Pemberton developed the non-alcoholic version of the French Wine Coca. Instead of adding alcohol to the original ingredients, carbonated water was added, as at that time people believe that carbonated water is good for health. Due to the presence of cocaine in the prototype recipe, Pemberton claimed that Coca-Cola could cure many diseases,…

“In American popular culture, the loss of innocence is characterized as the loss of one’s virginity and the first exposure to alcohol and drugs” (Ojha, “What Causes the Loss of Innocence?”).

As he’s traveling back home, he recollects good memories from when he was younger, regardless of the inauspicious things he and his friends did. Comparably, Thomas Hoods’ “I Remember, I Remember”…

interviews, research and other forms of study that has been done on the subject, drug and alcohol dependency that support the author has come to the conclusion that there are two sides to the very complex discussion is using drugs considered a chronic disease or a temporary failure to cope with tribulations in life. Side one concludes that the author’s conclusions about some treatments for drug and alcohol dependency characterize addiction as truly being a chronic disease like twelve-step groups…

older sister who did become addicted to opioid narcotics and alcohol, I know exactly what illegal substances will do to not only your body, but to your future in society.

Well, on its travel through your digestive system, the alcohol you have just consumed is now creating tiny bits of scar…

My contemporary message is for others to not drink and drive. Alcohol has many disadvantages on our brains including weakening the activities of the mind, harming our thinking, cognitive abilities, and muscle coordination. All these capabilities are vital for driving a vehicle safely. Thus, operating a car after being drunk causes severe problems including death. Even you can get imprisoned if you are caught to be driving while intoxicated. It continues, and we hear about many incidents…

Christ as my Lord and Savior and gave me a foundation to build my future goals upon. This event included a mixture of drugs, alcohol, parties, and prisons. It started when I was fifteen and my step-father, the man who raised me, passed away. It was at this point that I tried marijuana for the first time. The next week I took my first narcotic pill, while also drinking alcohol. This started off a quick downward spiral,…

The experiment outlined by this lab report demonstrated the idea of synthesizing tert-butyl chloride through an SN1 reaction. The SN1 reaction took place with a polar protic solvent taking the place of the leaving group (alcohol) and creating a new replacement bond with the carbocation to form a tertiary chloride structure. The product was then tested for this structure by reacting it with two substances: sodium iodide and silver nitrate. These tests were to demonstrate that if the product…

a higher risk for suicide, especially in the first 6 months following the diagnosis. The risk is highest among people who have an epilepsy and an accompanying psychiatric condition, such as depression, anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, or chronic alcohol use. All antiepileptic drugs can increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior. 5. Pregnancy dangers – Epilepsy can pose risks both to a pregnant women and her fetus. Some anti-epileptic medications should not be taken during the first…

1-pyrenehexanoic acid was used as the 5-carbon linker and fluorescent component of the target molecule "PYRET-5". This molecule was purchased pure along with the sugar Trehalose, the molecule to which the pyrene was to be attached. Other reactants and solvents include HATU, HBTU, N, N-Diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA), sodium azide, Dimethylformamide (DMF), and Diphenyl phosphoryl chloride and were bought pure or used as received. All reactions were run at room temperature (298.15 K) and standard…

which was completed through self-condensation of benzaldehyde with thiamine used as the base catalyst of the reaction. The next step was the preparation of benzil from the oxidation reaction of benzoin with nitric acid. In the oxidation reaction, the alcohol functional group of benzoin was oxidized to form the carbonyl functional group of benzil, while the nitric acid was reduced into a mixture of nitrogen oxides that formed toxic brown fumes. The final step was the preparation of tetracyclone…
