experiment was to find the unknown compound, to discover the compounds chemical and physical properties and create two synthesis of the compound and compare the two compounds. We found out our compound was ionic because the compound dissolved in water, but not in toluene or acetone by using a solubility test, results on Table 1 of the group lab report. On page 59 of the Cooperative Chemistry Laboratory Manual is a chart on suggested liquids and the inference if the compound is soluble [1]. When…
Used Lubricant Regeneration Technology Most conventional processes for used lubricant regeneration involve physical separation and chemical treatments to remove the contaminants and impurities from used lubricants to make it suitable for re-use. Some of these technologies generate liquid effluents, solid wastes, and air emissions during the regenerating process. The types of wastes, effluents, and wastes vary with the technology and processes used, and the environmental control methods [CEPA,…
while others are used in the production of extremely hard steel for tools, sometimes called tungsten steels. It is also used in the tips of mining drills. From Facts on File in Science Online, tungsten is in chemical compounds such as sodium tungstate. Tungsten is also in chemical compounds to flameproof cloth. Tungsten has no health effects, as it is used in drills. Tungsten also has no known positive or negative effects on any person or animal that comes in contact with…
in the terminology would be very helpful. A periodic table a chart organizing elements by atomic numbers and chemical properties into groups and periods. The periodic table was created in order to easily find and classify the different elements that are known. Elements are pure substances composed of just one type of atom that cannot be broken down into anything simpler by ordinary chemical means. Some examples are Oxygen, Carbon, Gold, and Silver. [Source A] An atomic number is the number of…
next thing that was miscommunicated over the next few days following the incident were the levels of environmental contamination. Ron Lewis of the Parkersburg News and Sentinel reported that the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) and Shell Chemical Company spokesman Rob Berger said that nothing from the fire fighter’s water sprayings made…
What Does Luminol Do? Luminol is used to reveal traces of blood in crime scenes, using a light producing chemical reaction, between many chemicals, and hemoglobin. It is a powdery compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Mixing C8H7N3O2 (luminol) with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), causes it to become a liquid. Hydrogen peroxide and luminol are the two main parts of this chemical reaction. To produce a strong glow, a catalyst needs to be present. A catalyst is a substance that…
and insoluble formed different colors of precipitate. The main importance in finding the nine unknown solutions was to prevent any inaccuracies that might form when there is a chemical compound forming. This experiment was done to determine the identity of the nine unknown solutions like color (physical trait), and chemical characteristics. Of course to determine the identity of this nine unknown solutions a sequence of solubility tests…
subunits which are associated in n-conjugation by methine carbons. 1 2 Figure 1: structures of phthalocyanine and porphyrins molcule The compound Phthalocyanine molecule consist of four isoindole subunits which are connected together by aza nitrogens and an aromatic 18π electron inner core which is further delocalized or shared into the four peripheral benzo units. The…
In many cases a person can buy a lithium/compound of lithium, such as a mood stabilizing drug, from behind the counter (Pure Lithium). Also, chemistry/ science teachers buy lithium for labs in school.Some danger of lithium include its flammability , and when combined with certain elements, its toxins. However, every element comes with its dangers and risks. In conclusion, with all the benefits that lithium contains and all the compounds it is used in today, I’d say that we’re pretty lucky…
DISCUSSION There are three chemical properties will be discussed which are combustion, reaction with bromine and reaction with potassium permanganate. Combustion was used to test the unsaturation of hydrocarbon. The degree of unsaturation refers to the number of the rings and / or multiple bonds present in the hydrocarbon molecule (McMurry, 2015). Hexane was a saturated hydrocarbon, it completely combusted and emitted carbon dioxide plus water. Cyclohexene was an unsaturated hydrocarbon, it…
