compound’s melting point, and using infrared spectroscopy to analyze a compounds structure. Since no initial masses were given, percent yield cannot be determined. However, a relative analysis of the resulting masses of the compounds shows that the solution contained mostly aspirin, caffeine, and acetanilide in decreasing amounts, but since each compound contains the other compounds, this conclusion…

I was born on September 1st 2001, I was a happy baby ready for the world to come. I was a very energetic I always wanted to know what was happening. Some of my favorite memories of me with my family were (and still are) the long road trips we do to San Diego. Also I really enjoyed flying to Connecticut to see my mom's side of the family. In the Hollister history the best road trip was when the car broke down just before the Grape Vine ( it is a big hill just before LA). We had to pull over and…

A Lasting Impression The gates opened as I passed through, allowing me to obtain my first glance at a new world. An endless array of attractions stood before me; roller coasters, log rides, colorful buildings, and more rolled across the horizon in a bright sea of color. The amount of opportunities for fun could last a kid for weeks. As I walked along the paths, I began to take note of the rides around me. “Oh, look at that one!” I exclaimed as I passed a space-ship looking coaster. I continued…

He pledged to keep America out of the war because were were not prepared to go against European nations, and his values were made clear with his Fourteen Points. They were principles for world peace, that was meant to be used for peace negotiations after World War I. They mainly advocated for human and democratic rights. Even though he promised to keep America out of the war, he was required to declare war…

Jan Van Eyck began his career as an artist in 1422 and continued until his death in 1441. While Van Eyck was active, he created many well-known paintings. According to John Haber, Van Eyck was a portraitist who was the first to paint in oils (pg.1). One of his most famous works is Wedding Portrait, or Giovanni Arnolfini and His Bride. This painting depicts a man and a woman holding hands in matrimony with many symbolic objects surrounding them. The painting was created in 1434 and currently…

Along with this, there is also the goal of redistilling one of the fractions in order to further reduce impurities by leaving the fraction with only one of the two molecular compounds. Theory Boiling point and vapor pressure are related to one another in an inverse relationship—meaning that as boiling point increases, the vapor pressure…

The world we currently live in is based on an amalgamation of ideas, where some achieve exponential success whilst others fade into obscurity. Malcolm Gladwell, through his book “Tipping Point” addresses the magic moment when these ideas cross the threshold and spread like wildfire (Gladwell, Preface). Moreover, he asserts that there are a number of factors that are at play in virtually every influential trend, ranging from the rise and decline of Airwalk shoes to an alarming escalation in…

professors believe that a student should be punished for attendendance for the reason being that they shouldn 't feel the need to make each student come to class if they did not want to. They would use a different approach which is to give them additional points if the student decided to comes to class. Yet, some professors may say that although it is not mandatory to come to their class, the student…

15 countries. While most of Coach’s production was outsourced, management was still able to control the quality of the products throughout the entire production process. These outsourcing policies and agreements helped the company achieve price points that were up to 50% lower than its…

glucose. The purity of glucose and ethyl cinnamate was measured through IR Spectroscopy. Melting point was used to determine the purity for cinnamic acid. Using the final amount for each ingredient, we determined the percent yields, which were 64.7% for glucose, 56.2% for cinnamic acid, and 38.8% for ethyl cinnamate. The melting point of cinnamic acid, tested twice, was consistent with the melting point of pure cinnamic acid. The glucose corresponded to the standard IR spectra, indicating we…
