Ban Trans-Fat Although fats are considered to be a part of our health‚ there are certain types that should be ignored. One of which has drawn controversial issues is trans-fat. Trans-fat is mostly found in many food sources such as vegetable oil‚ crackers‚ cookies and margarine. It increases blood levels of low density lipoprotein that is considered to be bad cholesterol‚ and decreases level of good cholesterol‚ high density lipoprotein. Trans-fat is created when oils are partially hydrogenated

Institute a State-wide Ban of the Use of Trans Fat? Trans fats are a type of fat often used in preparation of fried foods in order to enhance the flavor and‚ in some cases‚ increase the shelf life of a product‚ but these inexpensive‚ artificially produced fats have been liked to heart disease because they increase levels of bad cholesterol in the body while lowering levels of good cholesterol and that is why I agree that we should ban the use of trans fats in New Jersey restaurants and food establishments

al Chain Reactions: Bromination of Arenes Introduction The purpose of the bromination of arenes was to determine the different reactivities of different hydrocarbons with different hydrogen atoms when reacted with bromine under free-radical substitution. The time it took for the bromine color to disappear was used to determine the order of reactivity of the different hydrocarbons. Data and Results The data of the 10 hydrocarbon tubes and the 2 control tubes with bromine and dichloromethane in

relative rates of free-radical chain bromination‚ we were expected to be able to determine the relative reactivates of the many types of hydrogen atoms involved toward bromine atoms. Bromination is defined to be a regioselective reaction meaning bromine has preference of making or breaking a bond over all other directions that it may have had available. In this case‚ Markovnikov’s rule is revealed to be the case in this situation that states that adding a protic acid represented as HX to an alkene (sp2

Trans Fats There is lots of controversy going on about should the trans fats be banned by the government or not. On one side are people who are for ban of trans fats‚ while their opponents think that they should not be prohibited. What are the trans fats? Are they really bad for our health‚ should they be replaced with another substance and why there are so many people against them? Producers have the power over us‚ as well as opportunity to put trans fats into food in small amounts‚ without

Lab 3: Bromination of Acetanilide CHEM 2110 Hassan Alsaleh 0525970 Due date :11/02/2015 Q1: To find the limiting reagent we need to find the number of moles of acetanilide‚ and the number of moles of Bromine. Mass of Acetanilide used = 0.67g Molar mass of Acetanilide = 135.16g/mol[1] Number of moles of Acetanilide = (0.67g) / (135.16g/mol) = 0‚005 mols Volume of Bromine = 0.25ml Density of Bromine = 3.103 g/ml[2] Mass of Bromine = (0.25ml) X (3.103g/ml) = 0.78g Molar mass of Bromine

Avoid trans fats for health. Trans fat is an unhealthy substance‚ also known as trans fatty acid‚ made through the chemical process of hydrogenation of oils. Hydrogenation solidifies liquid oils and increases the shelf life and the flavor stability of oils and foods that contain them. Trans fat is found in vegetable shortenings and in some margarines‚ crackers‚ cookies‚ snack foods and other foods. The US FDA in 1999 proposed that the Nutrition Facts labels on vegetable shortenings and some cookies

INTRODUCTION Maleic acid and Fumaric acid are both compounds belonging to the carboxylic acids class. In this experiment‚ we formed the two isomers of 1‚2-ethylenedicarboxylic acid and tested the solubility and melting points of both of these products. Both of these compounds involve a carbon-carbon double bond that is composed of one σ bond and one π bond. The overlap of sp2 hybrid orbitals forms the σ bond‚ and one empty p orbital forms the π bond. This process is illustrated in the figure below:

Acid rain isn’t just rain‚ its forms like hail or snow‚ which is wet deposition‚ and smoke or dust‚ which is dry deposition. The effects of acid rain are quite terrifying bringing all types of problems to the Earth‚ for example
