the previous fuel cell model‚ which is also an alternative energy vehicle‚ was not a success. However‚ all the facts surrounding the failure of the EV1 may not be available to those making the decision. It was also determined that making a large Lithium Ion battery was difficult‚ though nobody said it was impossible. Perhaps that statement was one department manager or engineer’s opinion‚ not the general consensus. 2. What trends in the external environment favored the pursuit of the Chevy Volt

Discussion: In this experiment a ketone‚ 9-fluorenone is reduced to and alcohol. The are two possible ways by which this reduction can occur. One is by a catalytic hydrogenation‚ this uses a catalyst such as palladium or nickel‚ hydrogen gas‚ and heat/pressure. This can reduced an alkane to alkene. This catalytic process is preferred in industrial practices because the cost is low in the long run and more importantly there is little to no waste expense. However‚ hydrogen gas is dangerous due to

Abstract I would like to convey that with the help of this project I got the opportunity to understand a subject I was interested in. I came to know about how the electric cars are marketed in different parts of the world according to their needs. I also came across a point where I understood the advantages and disadvantages of electric cars over our regular petrol or diesel injected cars. I came to know about its relation with nature by saving the environment compared to our usual cars and also
