Isotopes of carbon

Do You think synthetic diamonds are better than natural diamonds? I do and here are my reasons why. First of all synthetic diamonds are more luster like. Second of all synthetic diamonds are better for the environment. Third of all synthetic diamonds cost much less than natural diamonds. First of all synthetic diamonds are more luster like because they come from the lab. This means that they do not have the coat of dirt that the mine diamonds have. “ The diamonds that come from the mine are…

secondary carbocation so, rearrangement occurs. A methyl shift happens to form a tertiary carbocation, which is more stable than a secondary carbocation. Then, the remaining oxygen forms a double bond causing it to have a positive charge; allowing the carbon that had a positive charge to have a full octet and to be neutral. Then, the sodium bicarbonate deprotonates the oxygen, which makes the oxygen neutral and forms pinacolone as the product. A technique that was used in this experiment was a…

What is coal? Well, the definition of coal is, a combustible black or dark brown rock consisting mainly of carbonized plant matter, found mainly in underground deposits and widely used as fuel. Coal is not just what Americans use to cook their hot dogs, or start a campfires. Everything from charging your phone, to the lighting in your house ,and other major electrical appliances you use every single day. Without coal the electricity needed for these appliances would not work, ture on, light up,…

Bouncy balls are made up of Polymers, which are made up of many small units of monomers, that go through the process of Polymerization to become Polymers. People can see such polymers all around them like rubber, wool, silk etc. Polymers have unique properties that allow chemist’s and scientists to mix different types of polymers with each other to form new ones. In the lab Polyvinyl Acetate (PVAc), Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA), and Sodium Borate were used to make and design the bouncy balls. The…

Have you ever wanted to buy an element from the periodic table? Well you found the right place. I sell Sulfur for a living may not be the right or cool thing to sell but I sell it. You can use my wonderful Sulfur to make cleaners and to make car batteries. This element is the easiest to find on the periodic table all you have to do is look for the letter (S). Let’s learn about the discovery of this wonderful object. This wonderful Sulfur was discovered around 1777. The special person that…

Lots of American farmers found themselves unable to make enough money to support their families. One of the main ingredients of Moonshine is corn. A farmer could take a subpar corn farm and turn it into a goldmine. Obviously the Government did not approve of this practice. There are a couple good reasons for the Government to oppose this practice. With underground Moonshine sales growing they were losing a large amount of tax revenue; secondly, there was no way to regulate production, and…

Ivacaftor, C24H28N203, is a 4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxamide molecule which consists of five main functional groups: a quinolone, an amide, a phenol, and two tert-butyls. Quinolones are regularly found in anti-biotics, amides are seen in the synthesis of nylon, phenol can be retrieved from coal tar, and tert-butyl groups are big hydrophobic groups found in tert-butyl alcohol (the simplest tertiary alcohol); none of these functional groups were invented or developed first by the parent company of the…

In this modern world, plastic be the most used material for packaging in almost every industry. The word ‘plastic’ comes from the Greek plastikos which means easily shaped (Robertson, 2013). Plastic is the combination of many molecules that linked together as one long chain which made from polymers: poly (Greek) means many and meros (Greek) means part (Robertson, 2013). Raw materials of plastic are called feedstock which come from natural and synthetic resources, such as crude oil, natural gas,…
