Ammonia production

The sodium cation did not have an effect on pH. We tested sodium acetate, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium bisulfate, sodium bisulfite, sodium chloride, sodium citrate, sodium formate, sodium iodide, and sodium hydroxide. The pHs of these compounds ranged from 1.25 to 13.00, which were sodium bisulfate and sodium hydroxide, respectively. Sodium bisulfite and sodium carbonate had average measured pHs of 4.24 and 11.13, respectively. Since this range is so wide, we can conclude

Bismuth(III) metal is relatively inert, soft and malleable. The world production of bismuth(III) is about 5000 tones per year [1]. Bismuth is seen as the least toxic heavy metal for human being and is widely used in medical applications for its good antimicrobial properties. Bismuth(III) compounds are used in cosmetics, pigments and a few pharmaceuticals, nearly 70% of the production being used for this purpose. Bismuth(III) compounds have been used in medicines for more than 200 years in variety

The two primary metabolic processes nitrates undergo are through the entero-salivary circulation pathway and the nitrate-nitrate-NO pathway (Nitrate/Nitrite Toxicity 2013: Biologic Fate of Nitrates and Nitrites, 2013). Inorganic nitrates and nitrites consumed through food and water are first reduced in the oral cavity by bacteria present on the tongue. This reductive activity converts nitrates to nitrites where it can further be metabolized through the gastrointestinal tract. After conversion of

Why is Lisinopril used? Lisinopril is used in the treatment of heart failure, hypertension (high blood pressure), and to assist in the improvement of survival in patients who may have suffered from a heart attack. It is in the class of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. This medication works by reducing specific chemicals that squeeze the blood vessels, so that the blood can flow smoother and the heart can pump the blood more effectively and efficiently.

From the time the Graham Fire and Rescue crew got the call, it took them three minutes to arrive on scene at the Powell residence fire. Upon arrival, the department’s assistant chief stated that the fire was “burning hot” and already through the roof (Reavy, 2012). Based upon statements made by the social worker and the short amount of time in which it took first responders to arrive on scene, the incipient stage of the fire could not have lasted more than a minute. The social worker claimed to

On 05/02/2018 the Merced County fire department responded to a fire on the property of 15476 August Ave, in the township of Delhi. Fire department personnel arrived on scene and located a large junk pile on the north east corner of the property was in flames. In the course of attempting to control the fire, firefighters opened up an adjacent 30 foot white Aly Aljo trailer with Brown Orange &Tan stripes. Firefighters noticed a large amount of marijuana inside the trailer and contacted the Merced

Silver nitrate is corroding your copper pipes. Would running sodium chloride through your water system stop the corrosion from happening? What are ways to prove the presence of silver nitrate in your system initially? The corrosion of copper and silver nitrate is a single replace chemical reaction seen in the chemical formula: 2AgNO3(Aq) + Cu(S) → Cu(NO3)2(Aq) + 2Ag(S) The reactants in this reaction are silver nitrate and copper, and the products are copper nitrate and silver. How would you prove

Analysis of Silver in an Alloy Introduction In this experiment an alloy of silver will be analyzed to determine its silver content. The silver-copper alloy will be dissolved in nitric acid, the silver will be precipitated as silver chloride, and the silver chloride will be filtered, washed, dried and its mass determined. From the mass of the silver chloride formed and the mass of the original sample, you will be able to calculate the percent of silver in the alloy. Because the results are

This experiment is dived into five cycle steps. The first step of the cycle was the reaction of copper when it reacted with nitric acid forming reaction one. As this reaction occurred, I observed how the beaker started to bubble, the sides of the beaker turned yellow at first then it vanished immediately turning the solution light blue. The fume vaporized as the copper started to dissolve. The reaction occurred in step one was double replacement. The second cycle included sodium hydroxide as the

Our theoretical yield of Silver is 0.370 g, and our actual yield is 0.351 g. To begin with, I was amazed of the process of making silver from a little piece of metal and silver nitrate solution even though it took 3 days to complete this lab. On the first day, Michael mostly did all the measurements and testing, while Mai and I was responsible for the calculations, including taking pictures and recording down the data. Firstly, our group balanced out the chemical equation, which is very important
