CH 16 - the name of this functional group class is historically derived from the pleasant aromas associated with many of its constituent compounds discovered in past centuries - although not all aromatic compounds known today share the same distinction (many are in fact‚ odorless or even unpleasant)‚ they are the principle components in such pleasant smelling substances as cinnamon‚ licorice‚ wintergreen‚ clove & vanilla CLASSIFICATION – - also known as arenes‚ many aromatic compounds possess

Gas analysis techniques Terms for gas analysis techniques Concentration The term concentration describes the amount of a substance‚ expressed as mass‚ volume‚ or number of particles in a unit volume of a solid‚ liquid‚ or gaseous substance e.g. alcohol in beer or oxygen in air. Different units are in use to describe concentration in gases: Mass concentration Concentration expressed in terms of mass of substance per unit volume [g substance/m3 gas volume] ¢ Volume concentration Concentration

INTRODUCTION When the machine fails or break down‚ the consequences can range from annoyance to financial distortion‚ personal injuries and possibly the loss of life. For this reason‚ the early detection‚ identification and correction of machine problems paramount to anyone involved in the maintenance of industrial machinery to ensure continuous‚ safe productive operation. The use of machinery vibration and the technology advances that have been developed over the years make it possible to not

Asymmetric Epoxidation of Dihydronaphthalene with a Synthesized Jacobsen’s Catalyst Justin Lindsey 12/08/96 Chem 250 GG Professor Tim Hoyt TA: Andrea Egans Abstract. 1‚2 diaminocyclohexane was reacted with L-(+)-tartaric acid to yield (R‚R)-1‚2-diaminocyclohexane mono-(+)-tartrate salt. The tartrate salt was then reacted with potassium carbonate and 3‚5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehyde to yield (R‚R)-N‚N’-Bis(3‚5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1‚2-cyclohexanediamine‚ which was then reacted with Mn(OAc)2*4H2O

OBJECTIVES: To determine the maximum wavelength of potassium permanganate. To plot the calibration curve of potassium permanganate. To determine the concentration of an unknown solution of potassium permanganate. INTRODUCTION: UV Spectrophotometer has 4 main components which is the UV light source‚ the sample‚ detector and the processor/recorder. Spectrophotometry is a technique that uses the absorbance of light by an analyte (the substance to be analyzed) at a certain wavelength to determine

Unsaturated Hydrocarbons Unsaturated hydrocarbons Have fewer hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon chain than alkanes. Are alkenes with double bonds. Are alkynes with triple bonds. 1 Structure of Alkenes Alkenes (and alkynes) are unsaturated hydrocarbons Alkenes have one or more double bonds The two bonds in a double bond are different: - one bond is a sigma () bond; these are cylindrical in shape and are very strong - the other is a pi (π) bond; these involve sideways overlap of
