Experiment  2:  Isolation  of  Eugenol  from  Cloves     Background;  Readings  on  Vapor  pressure,  Raoult’s  Law  from  TRO:   A mixture of the essential oils, eugenol and acetyleugenol, will be steam distilled from cloves. These compounds are isolated from aqueous distillate by extraction into dichloromethane. The dichloromethane solution is shaken with aqueous sodium hydroxide, which will react with eugenol, to yield the sodium salt of eugenol in the basic

The Plastic Plague: Can Our Oceans Be Saved from Environmental Ruin? By: Madison Shull Did you know just by recycling that water bottle you just finished, you could be making a huge impact. Ocean pollution is a serious issue is only increasing day by day, but this issue has not just occurred over this past year. This concern has been growing over the past decade and it is only rising according statistics. With the use of recycling, awareness, and policies we change the course of this concern onto

fracturing is not a good thing just because it makes money for--at times--everyone involved, as it causes our air and water to be polluted. There should be more regulations and laws to prevent contamination and protect our air and water from fracking pollution. In Adam R. Murphy’s “Hydraulic Fracturing: Legal Issues and Relevant Issues,” he writes about how there are policies and laws in place to stop pollution, but that there

larger, thus causing the need for larger mines and equipment. Another problem that could come with mining would be process control. This can all cause more waste and changes to our ecosystem but it is all under control, seeing as how more and more laws are being placed on this kind of things. Elements and rocks can’t be “grown” like plants can. Sustainable Mining

pollution. Coral reefs begin to disappear as a result of ocean pollution and many other factors. Carbon dioxide levels increase as greenhouses release gases into the air. As pollution continues to grow and become much worse, organizations create new laws to help reduce or end some of the major problems in our seas. Oil Spills disturb the environment and produce a threat to the animals living in that area. Both ships and refineries release oil into the rivers and oceans which leads to the

1. Why does Arizona have a water crisis? Arizona is having a water crisis because of many factors of climate change like drought and increased dust rate, water evaporation, greenhouse gases causing global warming, and snow runoffs in rivers. Warmer temperatures in Arizona in river has been leading to more evaporation. The water that is being used by plants and soil experience evapotranspiration which has accounted for a loss of at least half-million acre-feet of water annually. The snow on the Rocky

What is fracking? Fracking, according to Webster’s Dictionary, is to force water, sand, and chemical fluids into a crack or seam in a subterranean level of rock so that natural gas or oil may be harvested as it escapes through the crack. Fracking causes many harmful effects to the environment, but it does help the economy in a tremendous way. Fracking can cause loads of chemicals out into the air and into the water supply and it can also cause small earthquakes and tremors. It is useful for the

hydrogen bonds present and the polarity of water, this gives water a set of unique properties, the first one being cohesion. Understanding that water molecules are polar, meaning that the positive end of one molecule is attracted to the negative end of another molecule, forming hydrogen bonds. Due to hydrogen bonding, water molecules are attracted to each other, allowing for the development of surface tension. One example of this is the lab experiment featuring water droplets being placed on a penny. Due

An acid is a compound that donates hydrogen ions when dissolved in water. A base is a compound that releases hydrogen ions when dissolved in water. When an acid and base are mixed together, they neutralize each other, forming a salt and water. 10. A pH scale describes the degree of acidity or alkalinity of a substance. 0 to 6.9 indicates an acidic solution, 7.1 to 14 indicates an alkaline solution, and

a process where natural gas is recovered from deep layers inside the earth by injecting sand, water and chemicals at a high pressure into subterranean rocks and boreholes to recover this natural gas. In this process a shaft is drilled into the earth and after a several hundred meters a horizontal hole is drilled into the rocks containing this natural gas. The mixture of fluid is now pumped in (sand,water and chemicals) and the natural gas can be recovered after the fluid has served its purpose. The
