Naturally political Humans are killing the earth; destroying it by pollution. Some are claiming that the anthropogenic effect on the earth is destruction, while others say these claims are nothing more than fear mongering based around erroneous evidence. Potential presidential candidates Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders have taken their own stances on this subject and aim to address it effectively so that the public may be ensured of its relevancy. The environment is suffering, it is a…

element in the periodic table is one of the most important elements of them all, carbon. This element, located on group fourteen and period two of the periodic table, has an atomic number of 6 and a molar mass of 12.01; this means that it has 6 electrons, 6 protons, and 6 neutrons. The element is lightweight, fairly small, the fourth most abundant element on Earth, and is essential for living, growing, and reproducing. Carbon is found in all living and non-living organisms, in the form of an…

This experiment was performed in order to demonstrate the principles of nitration through electrophilic aromatic substitution. It also examined the effects of bromine on an aromatic ring, ortho-para vs. meso directing. The second experiment was performed to compare the reaction rates of electrophilic aromatic bromination with different arenes. Data and Results In the gas chromatogram, there are two large peaks. The first peak at 0.653 minutes with an area of 133,352 uV per second, 31.95% of…

The coal mining industry in the late 1800s, especially in Colorado, was a rapidly growing industry. As fossil fuel technologies expanded, life became increasingly dependent on fossil fuels, and as a result, people became more reliant on coal as an energy source. However, without the introduction of the railroad, coal would have remained just a minor industry (Andrews 2008, 54). These railways made it possible to connect the coal production areas with the markets, and thus possible to bring coal…

In Co(NH3)6Cl3, since the complex has a total charge of zero, ammonia has an oxidation number of 0, chlorine has an oxidation number of -1, cobalt has an oxidation number of +3. Therefore, there are four electrons in the d orbital of a cobalt in this complex. Figure 8 gives the possible high spin and low spin combinations for four d orbital electrons. The high spin config- uration has four unpaired electrons and the low spin configuration has two unpaired electrons. Figure 7. High and low…

Measurement of glutathione Glutathione (GSH) is a ubiquitous tripeptide which serves several vital functions including detoxifying electrophiles, scavenging free radicals and providing a reservoir for cysteine. The sulfhydryl group of GSH reduces 5-5'-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) and form the yellow colour product 5-thio-2-nitrobenzoic acid (TNB)21. Measurement of the absorbance of TNB at 412 nm provides an accurate estimation of GSH in the sample. Figure 7. Materials 5×105 cells/mL…

The experiment made use of two reactions in synthesizing 1-phenylazo-2-naphtol, also known as Sudan-1. The first is the diazotization reaction in which a diazonium salt is formed from the conversion of primary aromatic amines, such as aniline, to compounds with the nitroso functional group using a nitrous acid, such as HNO2. The diazonium salt was then used as an electrophile in a coupling reaction with an aromatic compound, β-naphthol. Recrystallization was conducted and yielded 0.18 g of a…

Phase Diagram and Phase Transformation Fig. 1 shows (FCC) Nickel-(BCC) Chromium binary phase diagram. The eutectic reaction takes place at 1345°C and the composition is 51% Cr and 49% Ni. The solid solubility of Cr in Ni is extensive which is evident from the phase diagram. Phase transformations of two Ni-Cr alloys are explained below. One is Ni40Cr60 (Line 2) which is closer to eutectic composition and contains greater % Cr and the other alloy is Ni68Cr32 (Line 1) which contains greater % Ni.…

be stated as a chemical compound of Silicon and the carbon. Edward G. Acheson was running an experiment on the synthesis of diamonds. At that time, it was produced by a high temperature electro chemical reaction of sand and carbon. We can also find the silicon carbide very rarely in nature in very small amounts. Also Edward G. Acheson was the first person to synthesize Silicon carbide. He used to pass an electric current through a mixture of carbon and clay for the synthesis of SiC. Still today,…

Introduction Quartz is one of the most plentiful minerals on earth, and it is found in various igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Clear Quartz is composed of pure silicon dioxide, and has nearly smooth sides with naturally faceted points at one or both ends. Clear Quartz is also known by the name Ice Crystal, which was derived from the Greek word “krystallos,” which means “icy cold.” (1) Greek philosopher’s believed that this crystal was water frozen so hard that it could never thaw.…
