Diesel Emissions The controversy that is surrounding diesel emissions have become a growing concern in many communities and many other organizations including the EPA. The EPA is the Environmental Protection Agency and their job is pretty self-explanatory they are put in place to protect and create laws to prevent and protect the environment from pollution and many other matters. The essential question I am researching is whether or not the black smoke from diesel exhaust is polluting to the…

In order to refine the ores harvested, the miners must allow mineral acids, including arsenic, aluminum, and sulfate to enter the rivers that supply the communities in the Atacama Desert with fresh water. As the mining industry continues to flourish, the quality of water available decreases greatly. Bringing these toxic chemicals into the desert poses an enormous…

Does the type of liquid affect how fast an ice cube melts? Does the type of liquid affect how fast an ice cube melts? In an experiment (not ours) involving three liquids, pop melted the ice within it the fastest out of the three. Molecules cause ice to melt in a pretty simple way. When salt is thrown on snow or ice, it prevents the ice or snow from freezing over once again. There are quite a few man-made ices, one being ice cubes. Glaciers have been around almost since the ice age, and they…

Introduction: Resistance to antibiotics is an ongoing concern of the pharmaceutical industry. The limited number of antibiotics in the market to treat Gram negative bacteria made their resistance an issue that is being addressed worldwide. The isolation of colistin from Bacillus polymyxa var. colistinus in Japan in 1949 and the introduction of colistin into the market in 1959 as its inactive prodrug colistin methanesulfonate (CMS) were significant milestones in the treatment of this type of…

Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to extract ethyl cinnamate, cinnamic acid, and glucose, which are ingredients in the candy, Red Hots. The experiment began with 0.604 grams of a mixture of ethyl cinnamate, cinnamic acid, and 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,…

The functions of FGFR3 are dependent on ligands, specifically fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and heparin sulfate proteoglycans (6). These ligands bind to the D2, and D3 immunoglobulin subdomains of FGFR3 to stabilize the dimer complex as well as augment the functions of FGFR3. Conversely, D1 functions to inhibit FGFR3. Although the D2 and D3 immunoglobulins…

Write a short summary with conclusions about the trypan blue and SDH results. Do the class results agree with the expected effects of the various treatments? Trypan blue exclusion is a method in which the blue dye is a crucial tool used to stain the nucleus of a cell that is non-viable or damaged. This shows early stages of toxicity whereas, the SDH leakage indicates a later onset of toxicity. The SDH leakage method requires the cell to have larger holes in the membrane to allow the sorbitol…

11/5/16 08 English Rough Draft Body Baking soda is a chemical that can be used in cleaning, deodorizing, health, cooking, and in baking (Rodino 14). Baking soda can do many things, but it is mostly used in baking. Baking soda is an important, chemical leavening agent in baking (Sideman) . This chemical agent is used in bread, cookies, cakes, and other baked goods (Rodino 14). Leavening agents make baked goods rise, which are need to make goodies light and fluffy. Baking soda is a mild alkaline…

Dr. Mercola stresses that sulfur is also indirectly connected to issues that deal with the health of the heart. Connective tissues and processes of metabolism are negatively affected by low levels of sulfur content in the body. Functioning of the heart incorporates a lot of connective tissues and metabolism provides the heart with the necessary energy to facilitate pumping of blood. Glutathione is a metabolic intermediary that can only be synthesized effectively by sulfur minerals. An insulin…

is heated resulting in CuO(s) and H2O (l). The copper is now in the Copper Oxide, which are black sediments. The H2O (l) is distilled from CuO(s) and H2SO4 (aq) is added. This results in CuSO4 and H2O (l). The copper is located in the Copper (II) Sulfate. Lastly, Zn(s) is added to CuSO4 (aq) which results in ZnSO4 and Cu(s). The 0.2 grams of Copper are now alone in its original form after being filtered from the mixture. It is evident that copper was conserved throughout the steps of the…
