We started preparing to leave for Everest on June, 2015, even though we were delayed for preparing and for the season. After several checks, however, we found a perfect weather window for summer, with few monsoons from India. So we scheduled the real ascent the first week of July, and two weeks after we sold most of what we had, and put in boxes all the gear we already had. Summiting Everest depends on a number of factors, and any experienced climber knows this. Because Everest is the tallest…

In the letter, Anatoli Boukreev (Responds to Krakauer), Anatoli Boukreev comments on the topic of his decisions and actions regarding the Mount Everest expedition on May 10, 1996. He argues that he has had more than twenty years of experience in climbing high-altitude mountains, and he is able to make rational decisions without the aid of supplementary oxygen. The first issue that Boukreev addresses, is his decision to retrieve supplies from camp for others. When Boukreev encountered Scott…

Methods Column chromatography was set up using a 60 ml syringe clamped to a ring stand. The syringe was plugged using a small amount of cotton. An Erlenmeyer flask was placed underneath the column to collect any excess material. Eleven 20 ml vials were labeled numbers 1 through 11. Silica gel was measured to 42 ml using a graduated cylinder and then moved into a 150 ml beaker. A slurry was created by adding 50 ml of hexane to the beaker containing the silica gel. The slurry was stirred for…

When the ink layer on paper is too thin, it is caused by less printing pressure and less amount of ink is transferred. The central position of plate cylinder is moved to change the pressure between the plate cylinder and the blanket cylinder. Center distance between the plate cylinder and…

their size or surface area. They have diverse applications in electrical devices. Nanocrystal thin film transistors (NC TFTs) have been intensively researched, because of their low-temperature processability.1,2 Colloidal NCs are synthesized in a liquid solution containing some stabilizing organic molecules, broadly termed as surfactants, which are bulky and insulating ligands. The individual NCs in the thin film are indeed separated by these ligands, which significantly inhibit the charge…

Introduction Thin-layer chromatography, otherwise referred to as TLC, is a fast and inexpensive way to determine the amount of components in a solution or to identify an unknown compound. The principal behind TLC is when different compounds are placed on silica gel or alumina, (stationary phases) they will travel different distances when eluted with the proper solvent. According to ChemistryGuide, this is because the more polar compound has a stronger interaction with the silica gel due to its…

paper, column and so on. 1 Chromatography differentiates by allowing the differences in polarity, vapor pressure, solubility and so on of different substances to be observed. 1 In our endeavor, we will be using specific types of chromatography, termed Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC) and column chromatography. Essentially, TLC is an adsorption aspect of chromatography that uses a polar stationary phase and a non-polar mobile phase, and utilizes capillary…

proteins, and amino acids.2 Chromatography is the process of separating a mixture, and has many different applications throughout the world. There are a variety of ways to conduct chromatography including column chromatography, paper chromatography, and thin layer chromatography. The particular experiment conducted and discussed is paper chromatography. This experiment will use chromatography to test and identify unknown pen inks based on tests done on known pen inks. Understanding the history…

Abstract In this paper CuO-NH-NH2 nanoparticle was synthesized and used to remove anionic dyes from single and binary systems. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the nanoparticle. Direct Red 80 (DR80) and Direct Green 6 (DG6) were used as anionic dyes. The effect of adsorbent dosage, dye concentration and pH on dye removal was evaluated. Kinetic…
