6_Kidney Pain After Drinking Alcohol (900 words) Alcohol abuse may lead to stress on the liver and kidneys. A common concern is kidney pain after drinking alcohol. Excessive drinking eventually will overtax the kidneys and result in medical complications. If you have noticed that your kidneys or other organs are experiencing pain or unpleasant sensations, then you have likely damaged your kidneys. The pain may vary in intensity and duration. Problems of the kidneys may be signs that the liver and

First of all, tetrachloroethylene is a nonflammable colourless liquid which goes by with the formula C2Cl4. Tetrachloroethylene is a reaction between two elements: chlorine (Cl) and carbon (C). This reaction raises a lot of concerns since it is mainly used for dry-cleaning fabrics and metal degreasing operations. Firstly, the exposure to tetrachloroethylene has many negative effects on the health of humans and the environment. Effects that develop from severe (short term) high-level intake exposure

Benzoin has a secondary alcohol as well as a ketone functional group which is oxidized into benzil with nitric acid. Oxidation of alpha-hydroxyketone occurs to form alpha-diketone. Hydroxyl group adds as a nucleophile on the carbonyl carbon of alcohol with nitric acid to form organic nitrate. Nitric acid is protonated to form benzil. Rearrangement of alpha-diketone benzil occurs. Hence, the addition of potassium hydroxide to benzil yields a carboxylic salt. Hydrochloric acid added to the potassium

Retrieved from https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3045088/ Summary: This article is about a survey completed on Mexican American middle school students residing in a large urban center in the U.S. Southwest. This study explores the possible associations between drug use

The use of alcohol in adolescences is one of the major health problems in the United States. Adolescent are constantly changing and constantly adapting to the environment, especially when they are in college. This does not only apply to college students only, but even younger adolescents. These adolescent children tend to drink to cope with their emotions or for other reasons. According to Santrock, J. W. (2016), adolescents transition from school (may it be from middle school to high school, or

“Wake up sweetheart.” Ummm… My body starts its ritual morning stretch as I slowly come awake only to find something preventing my stiff arms from rising. My cloudy haze starts to lift and I realize it’s not just my arms that won’t move, my legs are restrained as well. Shit. My memory comes flooding back—Menendez. “I’m sure you have questions, but you need to drink to help flush the drugs from your body.” Drugs? That pinch, the bastard injected me with something. He places a bottle of water between

2) Density = 0.94g/mL Volume = 10.0mL Mass = m A 100% yield would not make sense because it would imply that we end up with all of the (±)-α-phenylethylamine in the end. However, this racemic mixture contains two enantiomers of α-phenylethylamine: the (+) enantiomer and the (-) enantiomer. Since we only extracted the (-) form of the enantiomer, the percent yield should only represent about 50% of the overall racemic mixture. Therefore a value of 32.8% is very close to the theoretical

The design of this experiment aimed to synthesize 2-methylphenoxyacetic acid from 2-methylphenol and sodium chloroacetate by means on phenol alkylation. 2-Methylphenoxyacetic acid has been used to control the growth in plants and exemplifies a product of synthesis as it is a complex molecule constructed from two simple molecules. This synthesis proceeds by a nucleophilic substitution reaction, more specifically, via SN2 mechanism (see below). An SN2 mechanism's reactants are a nucleophile and a good

Alcohol is essentially a colourless volatile flammable liquid, used in beverages such as wine, beer and spirits, alongside as an industrial solvent and as fuel. The substance itself is a depressant, meaning that it slows down an individual’s brain and other bodily functions, and therefore affects the way they will behave, think and feel. Alcohol is classified as a drug, and depending on the amount consumed, can be toxic. Overall, it has largely negative effects on the human body, and these effects

Drunk driving is a decreasing issue in the United States. However, to keep minimizing the problem the punishments need to be made harsher. “The aggressive enforcement of drunk driving laws, say many analysts, is an effective tool in reducing the number of driving fatalities and injuries,” (Drunk Driving, 1). In the United States, drunk driving claimed the lives of 10,839 people in 2009. (Drunk Driving, 1). Drunk driving should have harsher punishments because they are endangering their own lives
