Fructe Vs Ethanol

239 Words1 Page

Sustainable energy sources are crucially needed with the threat of global warming and declining fossil fuel reserves. Currently, ethanol is the only renewable liquid fuel mass-produced aside from the often-used non-renewable petroleum-derived liquid fuels in the transportation department. Despite that, there are lots of obstacles in the usage of ethanol for it to be used efficiently. The suggested manufacture of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) from fructose will be able to create alternative solution to our dependence to petrol especially as it is more capable than ethanol and helps to convert the liberal supply of renewable biomass. There are two stages to eliminating five oxygen atoms to turn carbohydrates, fructose or other hexose compound, to DMF.

    People fighting for ‘Liberty’ “Actions speak more than words” is a modern cliché, and that is exactly what can be used to describe this true hero, Anthony Benezet. Being a strong abolitionist with such a high determination from Philadelphia in the 1770s, he wanted to make good use of the societal changes happening at the time with slavery. His action in proving that black students and white students had the same capabilities of understanding later persuaded more abolitionists to support the fight for the rights of the blacks. He made multiple writings which just kept spreading and impacting negatively to the supporters of slavery.

    When we’re finding out something that shakes us and makes us upset we look for others to support us through these feelings. Sometimes when we share something terrible, we get a sympathetic response making us feel even worse. Even when we don’t know people in the streets on the cold December night we feel for them when the icy air blows by. To understand the lack of compassion for someone in pain is difficult, not thinking about how that would feel if it was us. However, in Reading the Holocaust we get multiple stories of the survivors experience and how they dealt with surviving the horrible camps in a nonfiction novel by Inga Clendinnen.

  • Dehydration Of 2-Methylcyclohexanol Lab Report

    967 Words  | 4 Pages

    Dehydration of 2-Methylcyclohexanol Sura Abedali Wednesday 2:00 PM January 31, 2018 Introduction: Dehydration reactions are important processes to convert alcohols into alkenes. It is a type of elimination reaction that removes an “-OH” group from one carbon molecule and a hydrogen from a neighboring carbon, thus releasing them as a water molecule (H2O) and forming a pi bond between the two carbons1. In this experiment, 2-methylcyclohexanol undergoes dehydration to form three possible products: methylenecylcohexane, 1-methylcyclohexene, and 3-methylcyclohexene in a Hickman still apparatus. Adding 85% Phosphoric Acid to protonates the “-OH” group, turning it into a better leaving group and initiating the dehydration reaction.

  • Butanol Vs Ethanol Research Paper

    Butanol or butyl alcohol can be demonstrated to work in the Internal Combustion (IC) engine designed for use with gasoline without modification. It can be produced from biomass (biobutanol) as well as fossil fuels (petro-butanol). Both biobutanol and petro-butanol have the same chemical properties. Butanol is less corrosive than ethanol and has higher energy content than ethanol, similar energy content in gasoline. In comparison to ethanol, butanol is less prone to water contamination.

  • Distillation Vs Toluene

    Fractional distillation was the better technique of separating toluene and cyclohexane than simple distillation because it had a greater percent toluene difference for fractions 2 and 4. Fraction 2 composed of mostly cyclohexane with a toluene percentage closer to 0% compared to simple distillation, while fraction 4 composed of mostly toluene with 100% toluene. The 100% toluene in fraction 4 indicated that the compound was purer in fractional distillation than in simple distillation, which had less percent

  • 9-Fluorenone Lab Report

    The yellow solution containing the reactants was slowly poured into the beaker containing the cold water and the acid in order to cause the precipitation of the alcohol, 9-fluorenol and to destroy (hydrolyzed) the unreacted excess sodium borohydride. Subsequently, the white precipitate was vacuum filtered and washed twice with 20.0 ml portions of distilled cold water by pouring the liquid into the Buchner Funnel during filtration. It was necessary to wash the alcohol prior to recrystallization considering that the C-OH bond is easily broken by the formation of a stable and benzylic carbocation that favors the synthesis of difluorenyl ether. Finally, before the purification by recrystallization of the obtained product, the white solid alcohol was allowed to dry over a period of a

  • Compare And Contrast Alcohol And Caffeinated Drinks

    Tom Standage’s book “A History of the World in 6 Glasses”, showed how six varied drinks can have drastic effects on human civilization. Beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and Coca-Cola all have helped mold the world into what it is today, and though the marks of alcoholic and caffeinated drinks are different, there are similarities between them as well. With their effects on the body being polar opposites, alcohol and caffeine impacted economies differently, and even influenced the U.S. in their own distinctive ways. One thing they both share however is their impact on ancient medicine, giving way to decreased disease and increased population. Alcohol was first consumed as beer in ancient Sumeria when growing wheat and barley became popular.

    thanol is the desired product for the experiment, and it can be produced in various methods. Traditionally, it can be produced by the fermentation of sugar, starches, or cellulose. Synthetic ethanol can also be produced from ethene with the use of steam and catalyst. In scheme 1, it shows the reaction of how ethene converts into ethanol. Using catalyst, often time H3PO4, and running the reaction in 300°C with high pressure and high steam, ethene will react with water and produces ethanol.

    DETERMINATION OF PERCENTAGE ETHANOL IN BEVERAGES 1. Introduction to Gas Chromatography Gas chromatography is a very powerful separation technique for compounds that are reasonably volatile. The components of a sample partitions into two phases, the 1st of these phases is a immobile bed with a great surface area, and the other is a gas phase that permeates through the immobile bed. The sample is evaporated and passed by the mobile gas phase or the carrier gas through the column. Samples separates into the stationary liquid phase, based on their solubilities at the given temperature.
