...rt) After viewing our percent yields for Zinc Iodide (which were around 100%), we believe this lab was conducted under the best of conditions and produced more than accurate results. In performing the experiment, the measurements for Zinc Sulfate and Barium Iodide did not deviate from the standard to be measured by more than 0.03g (as was indicated for precision in the lab manual). Each time we went through the centrifuge process, the same centrifuge machine was used. To make sure our boiling tube did not contain any remnants of zinc iodide from previous experiments to mess with our end results and measurements, we washed it out twice with tube cleaners and soap, and then dried it and placed in the two boiling chips. After the centrifuge process, we made sure to collect all the aqueous zinc iodide to the boiling tube by using a pipet to gather all the liquid. For this double replacement reaction, all the reactants used formed complete products; there was no excess anything (like when reacting Zinc and Iodine, Zinc Iodide and excess Zinc was produced). Also, while heating our Zinc Iodide for this lab, near the end we made sure none of the product spilled out of the tube. To boost confidence, my partner I and did the experiment each separately and repeated it two times. In comparing our results with Mona and Belle, their centrifuged product also produced a white precipitate and clean liquid and their percent yields were also around 100%. During the actual experiment, we also...

...Stoichiometry ________________________________________ Stoichiometry is simply the math behind chemistry. Given enough information, one can use stoichiometry to calculate masses, moles, and percents within a chemical equation. ________________________________________ ________________________________________ What is a Chemical Equation? In chemistry, we use symbols to represent the various chemicals. Success in chemistry depends upon developing a strong familiarity with these basic symbols. For example, the symbol "C"represents an atom of carbon, and "H" represents an atom of hydrogen. To represent a molecule of table salt, sodium chloride, we would use the notation "NaCl", where "Na" represents sodium and "Cl" represents chlorine. We call chlorine "chloride" in this case because of its connection to sodium. You should have reviewed naming schemes, or nomenclature, in earlier readings. A chemical equation is an expression of a chemical process. For example: AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) ---> AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) In this equation, AgNO3 is mixed with NaCl. The equation shows that the reactants (AgNO3 and NaCl) react through some process (--->) to form the products (AgCl and NaNO3). Since they undergo a chemical process, they are changed fundamentally. Often chemical equations are written showing the state that each substance is in. The (s) sign means that the compound is a solid. The (l) sign means the substance is a liquid. The (aq) sign stands for aqueous in water and means...

In Elm Trees: The elm tree is adapted to reproduce asexually following damage to the parent plant. This happens by separation of some body part of the plant body and its development into a new plant. In an elm tree this occurs by: Root Suckers/ Basal Sprouts are removed from a tree in autumn and are grown in a nursery bed. They appear within 2 months of destruction. The suckers grow from meristem tissue in the trunk which is close to the ground (area of least damage) 2.2.3 – Describe the production of artificial clones of plants from tissue culture Tissue Culture: Large scale cloning 1- A small piece of tissue from the plant is taken to be cloned.

...NUR 251 March 25, 2011 Objectives Give three examples of side‐effects that if occur you should immediately contact your doctor. Name two nursing assessments or interventions when caring for a patient on corticosteroid therapy. Corticosteroid Therapy Facts Corticosteroids are any of a class of steroid hormones that either are produced in the adrenal cortex or are synthetic analogues. Corticosteroids are involved in a wide range of physiologic systems such as stress response, carbohydrate metabolism, protein catabolism, fat metabolism, retention of sodium in the kidneys, immune response and regulation of inflammation, bone development, blood electrolyte levels, and behavior. Corticosteroid Therapy Facts The long‐term administration of corticosteroids in therapeutic doses can often leads to serious complications and side effects. Therapy is reserved for diseases in which there is a risk of death or permanent loss of function, and conditions in which short‐ term therapy is likely to produce remission or recovery. Corticosteroid Therapy Facts There are many ways steroids can be delivered, and these include orally, topically, injections or via nasal or bronchial inhalation. Different types of steroids can be used, and delivery and type may change common side effects. Effects of Corticosteroid Therapy Anti‐inflammatory action As a result, manifestations of inflammation, including redness, tenderness, heat...

Amin In order to resolve the problem of low thermal and chemical stability of thermoplastic elastomers, dynamic vulcanization techniques were used in late ] plastic. In dynamic vulcanization the thermoplastic and elastomers are both cross-linked and physically mixed together. This gave rise to a second generation of thermoplastic elastomers which had better tensile strength and oil resistance as compared to those formed by physical mixing only [8]. ] ] ] _ were introduced which were made by same dynamic vulcanization process but using natural and butyl rubbers in place of EPR and EPDM. Natural and butyl rubbers have the advantages like low cost, very good over molding properties, reusable and very easily recyclable scrap [9,10].

...Fluoroscopy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Fluoroscopy | Intervention | A modern fluoroscope | ICD-10-PCS | B?1 | MeSH | D005471 | A barium swallow exam taken via fluoroscopy. Fluoroscopy is an imaging technique that uses X-rays to obtain real-time moving images of the internal structures of a patient through the use of a fluoroscope. In its simplest form, a fluoroscope consists of an X-ray source and fluorescent screen between which a patient is placed. However, modern fluoroscopes couple the screen to an X-ray image intensifier and CCD video camera allowing the images to be recorded and played on a monitor. The use of X-rays, a form of ionizing radiation, requires the potential risks from a procedure to be carefully balanced with the benefits of the procedure to the patient. While physicians always try to use low dose rates during fluoroscopic procedures, the length of a typical procedure often results in a relatively high absorbed dose to the patient. Recent advances include the digitization of the images captured and flat panel detector systems; modern advances allow further reduction of the radiation dose to the patient.
