Conclusion: Effects of corrosion Corrosion is a serious issue regarding the health and the cost. It can affect the health of the people in commercial sectors and in private sectors. Water having toxic metals like lead and copper, can be very harmful for drinking and other purposes. So the precautionary measures should be taken. Corrosion in the pipe can be health damaging and spoil the quality of water and it can also be uneconomical. There are some damages by corrosion: Corroded water is…
Modeling enzymes: How does catalase affect the initial rate of formation and total amount of O2? Introduction In water, hydrogen peroxide converts naturally into diatomic oxygen gas and water through the collision of water molecules. However, this reaction occurs at an extremely slow rate. With the presence of an enzyme, catalase, the reaction occurs at a much faster rate. This is because catalase binds with the hydrogen peroxide substrate at its transition state to weaken the covalent bonds,…
will be reviewed. 2.2 Peat soil background and behaviour Peat soil is a mix of incomplete decomposition of organic materials under waterlogged catchment land. In Sarawak,…
in Europe, but a lot of the original stories came from Native Americans. The origination of vampirism did however originate from Europe. People use to think that individuals were vampires because of the body’s decomposition cycle. Sometimes when someone was buried in the winter, decomposition wouldn’t happen for two to three weeks and the decomposing organs would bloat…
after death is advanced and necessary. Even though Roach discusses other fields that cadavers positively affect, she mainly bases her assumptions off of chapter three. In chapter three, “Life After Death”, Roach describes the process of human decomposition. In this chapter, Roach employs first and second-hand experiences backed by humor to effectively argue why human cadavers are essential to medical research about bodily functions and processes.…
Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone is the name of the international agreement that limits the production of CFCs Part B Cl + O3 ➞ ClO + O2 and ClO + O3 ➞ Cl + 2O2 The first reaction is a single replacement reaction, and the second is a decomposition…
Weakness Explanation Suggestion(s) for improvement Not measuring the temperature of the liver cubes that are the sources of the enzyme catalase. Although the hydrogen peroxide solutions were at the desired temperatures, it was uncertain whether their paired liver cubes had the same temperatures. This places concern on whether the froth height was close to being accurate, hence reliable. If the temperature of a liver were lower than the desired temperature, the enzymes would be less likely to…
All the materials were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and used as received unless otherwise stated. Reaction (1) How to make Sodium Azo-Tetrazolate--Pentahydrate (SAT) Approximately 2.15 g of Aminotetrazolate monohydrate was added to approximately 62.5 ml of 2 M sodium hydroxide. While being stirred, the solution was heated, increasing its temperature up 10 degrees Celsius, up to 60 degrees Celsius. Over a one hour time period, potassium…
The hit television series, Bones Season 1 Episode 22, followed a storyline into the disappearance of the lead player, Temperance Brennan aka “Bones” parents. Bones and her brother were abandoned by their parents when they were children (Fox Film Corporation, 2006). Over the years Bones found herself plagued with questions of what might have caused the nature of their disappearance. Did her parents simply abandon her and her brother, or where they dead? The Woman in Limbo episode brought to light…
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1. Method development and optimization The main criterion is to develop successful HPLC method for the determination of FVS and its degradation product. The developed method should be able to determine FVS and its degradation product in a single run. This method should be accurate, reproducible, robust, stability indicating, free of interference from degradation products and straight forward enough for routine use in quality control laboratory. Regulatory agencies…
