In the Acid-Catalyzed Hydration of norbornene, water and sulfuric acid were added to the C=C double bond to form norborneol. Sulfuric acid acted as a catalyst, where it was not consumed in the reaction and helped to propel the reaction forward, as it was vital in forming hydronium ion and breaking the double bond. Both the products endo-norborneol and exo-norborneol were synthesized; however regioselectivity and stereoselectivity played a role as to which product was more preferred and whether…

and right after they graduate. The opportunity that St. Norbert provides through their study abroad program, is amazing, to put it simply. They offer the chance to study almost anywhere in the world for the same price as tuition. Along with that, Bond University will help me advance professionally and academically as well because of the classes that I will take while I’m there, but also the experience that I will gain from living in a different country. I plan on fulfilling 4 of my psychology…

engage in delinquent behavior. This result was said to be due to how the mothers themselves were raised, without stress and with the ability to form emotional bonds with their own children through learned traits. It was proven in Coster’s study that the most imperative aspect of mothering, regardless of employment, was the emotional bonds that were formed which protected adolescents from associating with delinquent peers and ensuing deviant…

Cassamajor, Kimberly P1 R1 S4 Science Fair Research Paper Honors Chemistry Group Number 8 Research Paper The science fair topic at hand is whether or not chemical compounds affect water 's heat resistance/reception. In other words, how does the temperature of water (H2O) change when chemical compounds - such as sodium chloride and sucrose - are added? In this experiment, the independent variable is the chemical compound being tested while the dependent variable is the temperature of the…

For the volume to increase, the ‘cages’ of molecules has to be ‘inflated’, thereby making it bigger and occupy more space. To make the ‘cage’ bigger, the bond angle has to change and as such, FeO4 and PO4 tetrahedral will change as well. This changing of bond angle causes a tetrahedral distortion. Tetrahedral tilting also contributes to the tetrahedral distortion, where the tilt angle will decrease with temperature, causing the tetrahedral to become distorted…

1. INTRODUCTION Graphene consists of single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice. It is the basic structural element of many other forms of carbon, such as graphite, charcoal, carbon nanotubes and fullerenes. In simple terms, graphene, is a thin layer of pure carbon bonded together in a hexagonal honeycomb lattice. It is the thinnest compound known to man, the lightest material known, the strongest compound discovered, the best conductor of heat at room temperature and also the…

According to R.A Aitken, “An asymmetric synthesis may be defined as a synthesis in which an achiral unit is an ensemble of substrate molecules is converted to a chiral unit such that the possible stereoisomers are formed in unequal amounts.” It relates to any synthetic process that incorporates one or more new elements of chirality during a functional group transformation. Asymmetric synthesis involves the formation of chiral molecules. An object is said to be chiral, if it cannot be…

about the single bonds. There be terms used below such as eclipsed conformation, staggered conformation,dihedral angle and a few more. Eclipsed conformation is the conformation whereby the C-H bonds on one carbon is directly aligned with the C-H bonds of the adjacent carbon. When the C-H bond of one carbon bisects the H-C-H bond on the adjacent carbon, it is known as staggered conformation. Dihedral angle is the angle which separates the the bond on carbon atom from another bond of the adjacent…

This study analyzed the different forms of news coverage pertaining to the steroid era in Major League Baseball, along with the fan’s opinions of Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Rafael Palmeiro. These three players previously tested positive for steroid use throughout their time in the Major Leagues. While all three of these players showed remarkable talent throughout their Major League careers, their statistics will always be tainted, which influences peoples opinions on whether or not they…

Although Margaret M. Goss started her professional life as a nurse, she always knew she had a passion for writing. Her very first novel, The Uncommitted took her nine years to write and publish and she isn’t stopping there. ("About Margaret.") She has a very chaotic life and still plans to publish the sequel by the end of 2017. ("Re: Student”) While working as a nurse, raising three children, and everything else she managed to finish the novel and win some awards. She received the Midwest…
