Skin Cancer Introduction “Skin cancer is a disease in which malignant cancer cells are found in the outer layers of the skin. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the U.S.‚ affecting more than 1 million people each year.” (Health scout 2001-2006 1). Many people don’t take the risk of skin cancer seriously and continue to lie out in sun regardless of the consequences. The consequences of lying out in the sun can be the development of basal cell carcinoma‚ squamous cell carcinoma‚ and/or

Quan Chapter 15: Redox Titrations 1. (A) Which of the following is true of a redox titration? (i) Since the redox reaction is spontaneous‚ the equilibrium constant does not have to be large for an effective titration. (ii) The titration effectiveness is increased when the two half-reaction potentials are far apart. (iii) Without an indicator the equivalence point cannot be detected. (iv) For an effective redox titration‚ the reducing agent must always be in the buret. (v) The equivalence

BACKGROUND: Esterification is a reaction that combines an alcohol with an organic acid‚ with a water molecule is being taken out‚ and an ester is formed. A concentrated acid catalyst speeds up the esterification. In this experiment set up‚ sulphamic acid was used‚ as it is a solid acid and be added dry‚ without any water‚ which is a reactant in this experiment equilibrium. Esterification is a slow and reversible reaction. The equation for the reaction between an acid RCOOH and an alcohol RẬᶦ

Then we can re-write the above equation in the following from: A B (1) This is a very simple reaction where A molecules are converted into B molecules or one mole of A disappears for each mole of B forms. As the time progresses‚ the number A molecules decrease and B molecules increase that is shown in the following figure. 100 80 No. of molecules B molecules 60 40 20 0 0 2 4 Time 6 8 10 A molecules When we say “rate”‚

Chem Final Exam Combination Combination reactions‚ also known as synthesis reactions‚ involve the combination of two or more substances into a single new substance: A + B ---> AB Many metal oxides‚ for example‚ absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air to form carbonates: CaO(s) + CO2(g) ---> CaCO3(s) Decomposition Decomposition reactions represent the reverse of the combination process in that one substance breaks down into two or more substances: AB ---> A + B Water‚ or H2O‚ for example

Experiment Four: Organic Synthesis of Aspirin Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize a common organic product called acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin)‚ and to become familiar with the optimum conditions needed for successful yields. Aspirin is produced from an acid catalyzed reaction between salicylic acid with acetic anhydride. The crystalline aspirin is synthesized and purified by recrystallization‚ although there is not a hundred percent yield due to sources of error. Introduction

Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to learn how to use salicylic acid to make aspirin. Aspirin is the most widely used over-the-counter drug in the world. The average tablet contains about 325 milligrams of acetylsalicylic acid with an inert binding material such as starch. Aspirin is used to relieve pain‚ reduce inflammation‚ and lower fever. Aspirin originally was derived by boiling the bark of the white willow tree. Although the salicin in willow bark has analgesic properties‚ purified

The closer a person lives to the equator as well as how many severe sunburns a person has had will also increase his or her risk. Other risk factors include the number of moles a person has someone who has 50 or more is considered higher risk. Also the complexion of the skin has an effect. The lighter the complexion the higher the chances are because the skin has to produce more melanin to try to protect it. These people
