passion. Through my passion for archery and bowhunting, I would make a business where I could design and manufacture compound bows for both tournament use and hunting. I believe that this business would be a good idea because bow companies and manufacturers today, concentrate too much on how the bow looks, rather than functionality, power, and technological innovation of a compound bow in this day and age could be. To better…

Kyle Woodard Mrs. Dawson Enriched English 3-4 19 October 2016 The Compound Analysis S. A. Bodeen’s story, The Compound, is an amazing thriller that keeps the reader on the edge of their seats with tension as a constant. The story beautifully manipulates the reader into sinking into the story as if they were experiencing it themselves. The story follows Eli Yanakakis, the son of the famous billionaire Rex Yanakakis. When camping with his brother, Eddy his sisters Lexie and Terese, his…

Phenacetin would mainly be in the cytosol. Our predictions were not very off. In fact, we were pretty on point thanks to the pre-lab work. We learned how to determine the polarity of the compounds from their chemical structure. We knew the order of the most hydrophilic compound and the most hydrophobic compound. Although we didn’t not complete three reliable trails, we were on point with the prediction and that makes me feel confident in the results. This experiment helped us…

Those chemicals that we negligently throw out could end up harming our ecosystem. According SFGate.com, “The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency names phosphorus, nitrogen, ammonia and chemicals grouped under the term "Volatile Organic Compounds" as the worst environmental hazards in household cleaners” (Davis). To determine what the potential damage may be caused on plants, my partner Sam and I studied the growth and development of plants when exposed to harsh cleaning chemicals. I…

properties pave the way for future research in inhibitor technology. Introduction The inherent protection of metals and their alloys used in industry are of the upmost importance when it comes to longevity and reliability of structures. Many chemical compounds have been developed over the years that can inhibit the corrosion rate of metal alloys but cost effectiveness, toxicity, processibility and other factors limit the applications1. The need for new, eco-friendly and cost effective corrosion…

Since early human societies we have been using technology to advance and improve our lives this technology has evolved and changed with us as our societies changed. On such technology is the bow and arrow. The bow and arrow is an ancient technology which originated around the same time that the first human societies were forming. The use of the bow and arrow originated as a hunting tool in many different parts of the world. “The weapon was developed by many pre-civilized people across the world;…

chemically you produce a compound. The two different classifications of compounds include organic compounds or those that contain carbon atoms. An example of an organic compound is proteins, fats, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and other compounds in living organisms. All other compounds are inorganic. Chemist produce compounds in many different ways. Combining elements forms some elements.…

pesticide residues, waste solvents, fly ash and process sludge” (Philip, et al. p 313-314). About 6,900 tons of lindane (hexachlorocyclohexanes), 2000 tons of chlorobenzene, 200 tons of dioxin-contaminated trichlorophenol, 2400 tons of organic sulfur compounds (e.g., lauryl mercaptans), 2400 tons benzylchlorides and 2000 tons sodium sulfide/sulfhydrates” among others were been buried in the love canal over a ten year period. (Gensburg, et al. 2009, p 209; Kim, 1981…

task to investigate according to the lab manual1. We were employed by the Environmental Protection Agency as chemists. Our task is to identify an unknown compound that was found in a nearby landfill. In this laboratory, the unknown compound was given to us by our TA. The main goal of this experiment was to correctly identify the unknown compound. We also wanted to discover as many chemical and physical properties as possible. Physical properties are those that can be determined without…

thereby increasing the efficiency of the reactions. Furthermore, the reactions were conducted in accordance to the principles of green chemistry. These principles are utilized to design synthesis processes which minimize the production of malignant compounds that can cause accidents in the laboratory.1 The products collected…
