Bismuth was discovered in the fifteenth century by a french chemist named Claude Geoffroy the Younger. At first his colleagues thought he was crazy‚ thinking that he had found lead or tin. But Geoffroy had distinguished it as a unique element. The name Bismuth comes from the word Wisuth meaning “white mass”‚ because pure Bismuth is white. When pure bismuth is mixed with lead‚ tin‚iron or cadmium the multi colored Bismuth is created. Bismuth falls under the pnictogen family. This family consists

8. Terfenedine is an amino diol that is the active ingredient in the antihistamine Seldane. Mass spectral analysis of terfenedine shows a molecular ion at m/z = 471 and a peak at m/z = 472 which is 35.5% the height of the molecular ion. Terfenedine is known to contain C‚ H‚ O and N. (a) Suggest five molecular formulas for terfenedine. (b) Terfenedine has an even number of carbons and contains nine double bonds and four rings. Based on this additional information‚ what is the formula for terfenedine

When it comes to organic chemistry and the synthesis of specific products there is an abundant amount of routes that can be taken and still get you the same result. For the following experiment‚ the main focus is the use of a cycloaddition reaction‚ also known as Diels-Alder. According to the lab manual‚ this reaction consists of the addition of a diene and a dienophile and that the Diels-Alder reaction builds stereospecific ring compounds with ease (Weldegirma 80). The reaction takes place between

I enjoy a cup of organic fair trade coffee in the mornings. I have done this for a few months now. After I drink a big glass of water‚ I follow-up with the best organic coffee. For now‚ it has replaced my morning cup of green tea. Studies on caffeine continue and as each one comes to light‚ drinking coffee is no longer the dreaded bearer of health problems. For years‚ I didn’t drink coffee I avoided the caffeine. Because I like to keep my body clean and mean and I was under the impression the
