fluorescent dye to accept this energy and convert it into light. Although there is more than one recipe for a lightstick‚ a common commercial lightstick uses a solution of hydrogen peroxide that is kept separate from a solution of a phenyl oxalate ester together with a fluorescent dye. The color of the fluorescent dye is what determines the resulting color of the lightstick when the chemical solutions are mixed. The basic premise of the reaction is that the reaction between the two chemicals releases

effectively converted into acetic acid‚ ethyl ester‚ or was separated in light oil phase when using ethanol as solvent. When ethanol was hydrodeoxygenated with noble metal catalyst‚ 72.4 % of ethanol converted into gas and only 27.6 % was left. It contained a certain level of ethyl ester (such as acetic acid‚ ethyl ester and propanoic acid‚ ethyl ester). Therefore‚ ethanol was concerned to the HDO reaction as co-reactant (convert acid in bio-oil into ester) and enhanced acidity and stability of

Often when the body becomes incapacitated‚ the mind opens its eyes. As stated by Theodore Roethke‚ “In a dark time‚ the eye begins to see.” This quote is saying that in troubled times; one can find a way to see through the gloom.

The reaction was a cycloaddition which produced cis-Norbornene-5‚6-endo-dicarboxylic Anhydride surface. (1) Product one had a mass of 9.351 grams and product two had a mass of 9.572 grams. The theoretical yield was found to be 10.047 grams‚ which makes the percent yield to be 93.07%. Melting Points were found to confirm the purity of the product.
