Course Description This course will examine the basic principles of chemistry conceptually and specifically. The course will apply chemical concepts to address relevant issues ranging from atomic structure and chemical reactions to organic and biological chemistry. The course topics include matter and energy, chemical bonding, intermolecular forces, chemical equilibrium, and nuclear, organic, and biological chemistry. Students will apply these concepts using practical examples, facilitated discussions

The HAZOP (Hazard and Operability) Method Introduction The HAZOP Concept The HAZOP process is based on the principle that a team approach to hazard analysis will identify more problems than when individuals working separately combine results. The HAZOP team is made up of individuals with varying backgrounds and expertise. The expertise is brought together during HAZOP sessions and through a collective brainstorming effort that stimulates creativity and new ideas, a thorough review of the process

researching multinational organizations involved in chemical production, one giant stands out among them, and that organization is BASF SE (BASF). Founded in 1865 and based out of Ludwigshafen, Germany, BASF SE has grown into one the world’s premier producers of chemicals and plastics. BASF SE is involved in the production of numerous chemical compounds, as well as providing chemical components to other industries that have a need for these unique chemicals in their products. Additionally, BASF SE has

Mixed Fluid Cascade Process- Liquefaction process Overview The mixed Fluid Cascade Process is a process which was developed by Linde/statoil LNG technology Alliance. It was implemented in order to reduce the cost and construction time of producing the plant. (Berger,E, Forg, W...2003 pg 12) The process is a single train 4 million tpy LNG plant (Shukre,F and Wheeler,F 2004 pg 3). The main factors of introducing this process to be used in Northern Australia is because it consists of a better

around your driveway. Rock salt or table salt will melt ice creating a combination of water and salt or “saltwater”. We use water to help out flowers, grass and other plants grow. In the winter, plows come through to clear the snow and put a salt chemical mix on the streets which secretes and either falls into drainage ditches or becomes absorbed by our soil. Through the process of osmosis the saltwater mix is moved through permeable membranes of the soil. The saltwater mix is absorbed by the roots

Chapter 10 Outline The Shapes of Molecules Introduction Whether we consider the details of simple reactions, the properties of synthetic material, or the intricate life-sustaining processes of living cells, molecular shape is a crucial factor. 10.1 Depicting Molecules and Ions with Lewis Structures Lewis structures, also called electron-dot structures or electron-dot diagrams, are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the

iron (III) and thiocyanate ions and to determine in which direction the react shifted to maintain equilibrium. Introduction Chemical reactions do not always run to completion, such that the entire limiting reagent or all reactants are consumed entirely. In many cases many chemical reactions establish an equilibrium, where the amount of reactants and products are constantly in flux in an effort to maintain a set amount. At equilibrium the rate of the

Sara Feliciano I have chosen to write my topic paper on ADD/ADHD. There is a lot of controversy surrounding this topic, the treatments that are used as well as the side effects. I found several of the other topics interesting as well but I have had personal experience with ADD/ADHD and think it would be beneficial for myself to learn more on this topic. When I was younger I was diagnosed with ADD. I was put on a daily dose of Adderall. I had reactions to this medication that I considered

directly observed reactions and Hess’s law was used to calculate the enthalpy change for an additional reaction which is not directly observed. Hess’s law stated that the overall enthalpy change of a chemical reaction is independent of its pathway. The magnitude of enthalpy change of a chemical reaction depends only on the difference in the enthalpy content of the products and the reactants, and does not depend on how the reaction is completed. Consider the below thermochemical cycle: By Hess’s

Drawing a Lewis Structure Lewis structure is the structure of a molecule in which dots are used to show the electron position around the atoms that make up the molecule. In order to produce the Lewis structure of a molecule, there are certain steps one needs to follow (they are five (5) in number). Basically what I will do is to use the molecule methane (CH4) as example to show you how to draw the Lewis structure of any molecule. First Step In order to produce the Lewis structure of methane
