...Lab Report Chemistry 341L: Preparation of Cyclohexene Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to prepare an alkene, cyclohexene, by the dehydration of an alcohol, cyclohexanol. In this experiment cyclohexanol is dehydrated to prepare cyclohexene, using phosphoric acid as a catalyst. Unsaturation tests are then done to ensure cyclohexene was prepared. Experimental Scheme: The procedure for the Preparation of Cyclohexene lab started with first having to add 10mL of cylcohexanol (clear liquid with strong odor), and 2.5mL of phosphoric acid (clear liquid) to a 50-mL round bottom flask. These liquids were mixed together well; a boiling stone was added to the flask in order to allow for a smoother and gentle boil. Below is the equation for the reaction that took place in this lab. Equation 1: Formation of the product cyclohexene, from the reactant cyclohexanol with the aid of a catalyst phosphoric acid4 Next a distillation apparatus had to be assembled, using a 25-mL round bottom flask as a receiving flask, this flask was then placed into a beaker of ice water refer to figure 1. Figure 1: Distillation apparatus5 Distillation is used in order to dehydrate the cyclohexanol. After the apparatus was assembled we circulated the cooling water in the condenser, while heating the mixture in the flask. The flask was heated until the product started to distill, and collect into the receiving flask in the ice water bath. We continued to heat the mixture...

...reacting it with iron (II) ammonium sulfate hexahydrate, Fe(NH4)2(SO4)2•6H2O (abbreviated FAS). The second part of the lab uses the standardized potassium permanganate to determine the amount of the analyte, also iron (II), in iron supplement pills. In this experiment, a purple-colored solution of potassium permanganate, KMnO4, with an approximate concentration of 0.02 M will be added to solutions containing Fe2+ ions. In redox titration the chemical reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction with electrons transferred from one species to another. The total number of electrons lost in the oxidation half-reaction is equal to the total number of electrons gained in the reduction half-reaction. The permanganate ion, MnO4-, is a strong oxidizing agent which causes the Fe2+ to be oxidized to Fe3+ ions. The manganese gains five electrons and is reduced from a 7+ oxidation state in the permanganate ion to form colorless Mn2+ ions. The Fe2+ loses one electron as it is oxidized to Fe3+. The end point is indicated when the reaction is complete at the point when all of the Fe2+ ions in solution are oxidized and the colorless mixture retains the purple tint of unreacted permanganate. Note that the color may be somewhat orange in appearance, depending upon the concentration of the Fe3+(aq), which has an orange-yellow-green tint. A few drops of concentrated phosphoric acid,...

...Background: Acids are substances that are characterized by their ability to donate protons (H+) to other substances in a solution. Acids can be strong or weak. Weak acids do not ionize completely and are found in everyday substances. Acidity is a measure of the amount of dissolved hydrogen ions in a solution. The greater the number of hydrogen ions in a solution, the more acidic the solution. Strong acids donate hydrogen ions in water, to a much greater extent than weak acids. Bases are substances that are characterized by their ability to accept protons or produce hydroxide ions (OH-) in an aqueous solution. As for acids, the difference in strength of bases directly relates to the degree in which hydroxide ions are formed by the base in water. Like strong acids, strong bases are also dangerous chemicals. Weak bases are found in many everyday items. When feeling the consistency of a base, it feels slippery because it degrades the fatty acids and oils in the skin on contact. However, due to the possibility that an acid or a base could be very dangerous to human tissue, never experiment with an acid or base by tasting or touching it. To determine if a substance is an acid or a base, a pH scale may be used. pH is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a substance. The equation for pH is: pH = -log [H+]. The logarithm for pH is based on a scale of 10. As pH is a negative logarithm, the pH of a substance increases as the concentration of hydrogen ions decreases. For...

...Executive Summary Our teams goal is to establish how Agrium has transitioned from a local Calgary based Corporation to a large corporation with an apparent “Global Organization” model. We are interested in understanding how they have grown into a world leader in their industry. We will identify where they started, where they are today in mining and technology, and how they reach consumers all over the world while maintaining their vertical control from their headquarters in Calgary; by analysing Agrium’s history, corporate structure, and three key business units. At the end of this case study we hope other Canadian organizations will adopt the Agrium model when they consider expanding operations globally.

It is a parasitic worm that lives as an adult in the right side of the animal’s heart, and large blood vessels leading to the lungs. The mosquitoes are the intermediate host for heartworms. The female adult worms in the heart and vessels microfilariae in the blood, which are immature worms that can live up to three years. The mosquitos feeds on animals and ingest the microfilaria which matures in the mosquito for about two weeks to become an infected larva. When the mosquito feeds on another animal the microfilariae is passed to that animal. There the microfilariae the larva develops over three to six months, and migrate to the right side of the heart. About six months the larva develops into an adult worm. The adult worm can live up to seven years, and produce microfilaria which completes the life cycle. Heart worms a very serious health issue. Which can lead to right ventricular dilation, hypertrophy, heart failure, and death. Clinical signs can occur within six months or latter from the time on infected. The physical signs can be very mild to severe depending on the number of adult worms present. Which can range from coughing, difficulty breathing, and abnormal heart sounds to death. There are several tests that...
