Carbon sequestration

boiling point increase when the addition of an extra carbon atom in a straight-chain homologous series of saturated alcohols occurs?” On average, as per calculations conducted, the boiling point increases by a magnitude of approximately 14.1 ℃. Granted such quantitative evidence, in addition to its corresponding visual plotting detailed in figure 2.1, it could reasonably be determined that a quite linear correlation indeed exists between carbon-chain length and boiling…

According to Encyclopedia Britannica in Britannica School the word tungsten comes from the mineral scheelite which was once called tungsten, which means heavy stone. The name comes from the Swedish chemist and his countrymen who discovered the metal in scheelite. The atomic number of tungsten is 74 and tungsten’s atomic weight is 183.84. Tungsten is also one of the densest and hardest metals in the world. From Encyclopedia Britannica in Britannica School, tungsten was discovered by a Swedish…

Hello everyone. The chemical that i’ve chosen to research is called “phthalate”, and the question I’m asking is whether it should be banned? The chemical formula for the most popular form of phthalate is C8H4O4. There is also a substance called “Phthalic acid”, from which phthalates originate, which is used to synthesize into phthalate. Some of phthalates physical properties include: a melting point of 207°, and a boiling point of 378°. It’s a colourless, white crystalline (translucent)…

bromonium ion and the other is a secondary carbocation. For the first intermediate, the second bromine ion attacks from under the bromine ion that is already present in the structure because of steric hindrance. It can attack either left or right carbon but each would make the same compound. This forms the product meso-stilbene dibromide. For the second intermediate, the bromine ion can attack in two ways, from either side. The result is either a cis or trans product forming fifty percent of the…

The carbon monoxide color detector tube will be broken within ten feet of the colony from the third floor. This will give a reading of the carbon monoxide levels that the colony is exposed to on a day to day basis. In the meantime, a Hobo Meter will be activated amidst the other readings taking place. This will allow for background information on the temperature and relative humidity. For this purpose, knowing the temperature will deepen understanding of results from the ammonia and carbon…

In the case of Anna Garcia, many important pieces of information were uncovered with various forms of analyses. In this case, the cause of the death of Anna Garcia is being investigated, along with reasons. Various important clues from the crime scene give hints as to what Anna Garcia’s demise was, among them a hypodermic needle on the floor. Another important piece of evidence at the crime scene is the presence of blood in a puddle, along with some drops. In addition, there was a pile of barf…

1) Petcoke is the nickname given for Petrolum Coke, a material that looks like coal and is a byproduct of refining the oil brought in from Canada. (Chicago Public Health) While no known illnesses of health effects are associated with Petcoke, they can cause breathing issues, which includes “coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath.” (Chicago Public Health) Currently, the Illinois Environmental Protection Association Agency is investigating an open-air storage area along the Calumet River (EPA)…

The previous lab that was conducted dealt with oxidation, which is referred to as a compound gaining oxygen or losing electrons (Wyman, 2015). This week’s lab consisted of a reaction that was the opposite of an oxidation and it is known as a reduction reaction. To be more specific a reduction reaction is when the reactant that is present gains electrons, which is response lowers the overall formal charge of the compound. For instance, if there are two hydrogen ions and each one has a positive…
