The CEO of a large perfume factory needs to know the best way of safely transporting n-hexanol, which is used in manufacturing perfumes, to his factories. Therefore, the purpose of this experiment was to find the most beneficial way to transport an alcohol. Specifically, if transporting n-hexanol in hot or cold temperatures works best or if another alcohol should be used. A volatile liquid is a liquid that evaporates readily at room temperature or a liquid that has a measurable vapor pressure…

Cutin,Waxes and Suberin Definition: There are lipophilic barriers in all plants that prevent the water loss and manage the movement of, solutes, and gases.Cutin waxes and suberin are these lipophilic barriers. (1) (2) Introduction: Cuticle is the protective and waterproofing covering that covers the plant organs and prevent water loss and entry of microorganism.Cuticle structural component is cutin. Suberin also act as a fence for the pressure from the environment and cutting and is formed…

Is there any chance global warming, dramatic effects are changing the earth’s atmosphere slowly or rapidly? The industrial revolution begun in the mid- 17th century, it was a transition from agriculture era to manufacturing production era. This was the time where technology was improving and aspect of our daily life was changing. The first powered gasoline car (Benz Patent-Motorwagen) was made in 1807 and made by Karl Benz. Gasoline is made from fossil fuels, which is released into the…

Crude oil is a complex mixture of various organic compounds, comprising of different hydrocarbons and heteroatomic compounds (Simanzhenkov and Idem, 2003). In addition to carbon and hydrogen, petroleum might contain sulphur, oxygen and nitrogen, and metals such as nickel, vanadium, iron, and copper. Crude oil physical and chemical compositions vary with location, depth and age (Rahimi and Gentzis, 2006). Physical composition of crude oil varies from black liquids of high viscosity to…

Our system began to create four.6 billion years past from a whirling mass cloud. provide or take a handful of million years, the gas cooled and joined to create giant bodies referred to as “protoplanets,” that later became the planets we all know these days. no matter was left when the planets shaped became comets or asteroids, strewn concerning everywhere the system. when a hundred million years, the big ball of gas at the middle of this whirling mass cloud hot and exploded during a vast…

Synthesis ofp-[1-(p-Hydroxyphenyl)-1-(p-Methoxyphenyl)Ethyl]Phenol (HMEP) 0.2 mol of phenol was mixed with the solution containing 100 mL of acetic acid in 200 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid in 500 mL five necked round bottom flask fitted with anoil bath, thermometer, mechanical stirrer, reflux condenser. The contents of the flask was stirred for a period of 15 min, the solution was heated to 65oC, 0.1 mol ofp-methoxyacetophenone was introduced into a dropwise to the solution for about 6 h…

in their lives that they would need to travel for. The videoconferencing is much more convenient. An additional step is to trim waste. Garbage that is buried in landfill produces methane, a chemical compound with chemical formula CH4, the simplest alkane and the main component of natural gas. Keep stuff out of landfills by composting kitchen scraps and garden trimmings, and reusing paper, plastic, metal and glass. Let manufacturers know you want products with minimal or recyclable…

The goal of this lab was to conduct the reaction of 2-methyl-2-butanol with HCl to form 2-chloro-2-methylbutane, and to understand Sn1 and Sn2 reactions, in terms of how they are different and why one is more likely to happen over the other. The OH group in 2-methl-2-butanol is attached to a tertiary Carbon, meaning the reaction should occur via Sn1, a two-step reaction, and Cl should replace the OH group, to form a tertiary halide. HCl was added to 2-methyl-2-butanol and then several…

periment 3: Isolation of trimyristin from nutmeg Name: Roisin Weldon Lab partner: Cora Farrell Date experiment was carried out: 07/03/17 Introduction The aim of this experiment is to isolate trimyristin from nutmeg using a Soxhlet extractor. An ir spectrum of trimyristin, its melting point and the percentage yield are also to be obtained. Nutmeg is the powdered and dried seeds of two trees. These trees are Myristicia moschata and Myristica fragrans. Trimyristin is found in nutmeg. It is a…

to different temperature and takes the different types of fuel out by fractional distillation. Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and/or hydrogen sulfide. You can find it under the ocean and near oil deposits. Natural gas is piped out similarly to oil and is refined the same way. Natural gas can be used to make…
