The purpose of this experiment was to ascertain an unidentified substance. The substance in question was a colorless liquid with an odor resembling acetone. To start with the Tollens’ test was conducted on the unidentified substance to differentiate between an aldehyde and a ketone. The results of the test were negative. This indicated that the substance under consideration was a ketone The next step consisted of determining the melting point of the substance, which was in the range…
INTRODUCTION United States Army has produced a new technology, “escalation of force” capability for the Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS) which is called “Green Eyes” kit. The Army's Program Executive Office Soldier is fielding several Green Laser Escalation of Force, or GLEF, kits to units in Afghanistan for operational assessment. It has being tested in Afghanistan to assist soldier by giving them an interim step before escalating force. The CROWS system allows a weapon such as…
arthritis because the symptoms usually aggravate when they expose to humidity. Convenience Due to the fact that a dry sauna doesn't produce any steam, makes it a better choice for people who want to install a sauna in their homes. Usually, the infrared saunas are the first option for many people because they…
In 2004, six years after graduating High School, I knew I needed to do more with my life than I was, so I joined the Air Force. This is a very basic way to describe it. I realized I was capable of more in my life; I recognized that I couldn’t get there working where I was; I identified that the military had careers that interested me, and I narrowed the jobs down to the Air Force. This is not to say I did it all for only that reason. I also had considered the military before, as my father and…
The D-Day invasion was given the codename Operation Overlord. Operation Overlord was the result of over 2 years of planning. Before D-Day the allies did many things to make Germany think that the main invasion would be at other places in France. The things they did to trick them included fake radio transmissions, fake armies, and fake equipment. The allies used Operation Fortitude to trick the Germans into thinking the invasion would happen in an area that was the shortest distance between…
Solventless Reactions: The Aldol Reaction CH204-01 Fadwa Mekkaoui Introduction: An aldol reaction is the formation of a new carbon-carbon bond by the addition of a nucleophile to an electron deficient carbon. The reaction is favorable in Green Chemistry. It demonstrates green principles such as using no solvent and having a high atom economy. In the lab a mixed aldol reaction was performed to synthesize an unsaturated ketone from and aldehyde and ketone. By using an aldehyde, that doesn’t…
accidents that results in over 10,000 injuries and 250+ fatalities each year? My improved safety feature could improve reaction time when a deer is spotted so reduce the number of deer or animal related crashes. My safety feature is installing infrared sensors on the exterior of the car that would detect the heat of animal’s bodies. When a deer or animal was crossing the road or on the edge of the road…
Q7) Describe how emission line spectroscopy is used in astronomy for the evaluation of star composition light years away from Earth. Please provide detailed information. The spectrum of stars consists of bright lines and dark lines. These lines are produced when the star emits or absorbs energy at specific wavelengths. Emission line spectroscopy is used in order to find out the star’s colour spectrum. The spectrum can be found by using a visible light telescope or by collecting radiation that…
The plain view doctrine acknowledge a law enforcement officer take any evidence of a crime or illegal items that is found in plain sight during a normal inspection. “Under the special case for an inquiry occurrence to capture, and officer may lead a warrantless pursuit of the arrestee’s individual and the zone inside the arrestee’s prompt control.” (Brooks, 2004). Furthermore, throughout an inquiry episode to capture, police may take from an arrestee any property which the arrestee may have…
The development of new drug discovery technologies like high throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, etc. has led to the discovery of a large number drugs that are poorly water soluble.(1,2) Approximately 40% of the NCEs are poorly water soluble and has poor bioavailability.(3) The successful clinical use of these molecules requires the application of solubility enhancement based formulation approaches. Among the various solubility enhancement technique like use of cosolvents,…
