EXPERIMENTAL SECTION
General remarks. All of the reagents and solvents were commercially available and purchased from Fluka, Merck, and Aldrich chemical companies. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyse was performed using a TEM microscope Philips CM 120 KV Netherland. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns were obtained on Inel French, EQUINOX 3000 model X-ray diffractometer using Cu-K radiation. Scanning electron/electron backscatter diffraction microscopy (SEM)/(EBSD) has been performed using an SU3500 microscope with scanning range from 0 to 20 keV. Electron dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) measurements were made with an IXRF model 550i attached to SEM. SEM-EBSD/EDX samples were prepared by coating of solid particles into a conductive layer. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra were recorded with

Typically, FeCl2.4H2O (4.3 g) and FeCl3.6H2O (11.6 g) were mixed with 350 mL of deionized water under N2 atmosphere. The resulting solution was heated to 80 °C while stirring, vigorously. Then, 20 mL of 25% NH4OH was quickly added into the solution. The resulting suspension was vigorously stirred for 5 min and then, the black precipitates were collected with the help of a magnet and washed repeatedly with deionized water and ethanol, then dried at vacuum …show more content…
Firstly, 0.3 g Fe3O4 was ultrasonically dispersed into 150 ml solvent (Vmethanol/Vwater=1/1) for 20 min to obtain a uniform suspension. A 100 ml alkaline solution (0.32 g Na2CO3, 0.48 g NaOH) was added dropwise into the suspension until pH ca. 10.0 and kept for 5 min, then another 100 ml salt solution (1.02 g Mg(NO3)2⋅6H2O and 1.2 g Al(NO3)3⋅9H2O) and above alkaline solution were simultaneously added maintaining the pH in 9.5-10.0. The resultant was stirred for 5 min followed separation by using a magnet and thoroughly washing with deionized water and alcohol and dried at 60 °C overnight giving product Fe-Mg/Al
While the solution dissolved, 50 mL of distilled water was added to a 150 mL beaker and heated on the hot plate. When the solution started to boil 2.65 grams of Na2SiO3*5H2O was added to the beaker with a stir bar and heated to a gentle boil. When both solutions began to boil, the sodium silicate solution was slowly added to the sodium aluminate. The solution was kept at 900C for 60 minutes and stirred with stir bar. After 60 minutes, the zeolite solution was cooled for 5 minutes and for the magnetized zeolite , 0.78 grams of FeCl3 and 0.39 grams of FeSO4*7H2O was added to the flask and stirred until the iron parts dissolved.
The design relied on two Schmitt triggers to generate the two different tones while using the transistors to act as a switch. This causes it to trigger continuously between two unstable states, allowing automatic switching between two frequencies producing two different tones. The RC values between the two Schmitt triggers will differ. Capacitors charge and discharge faster when it’s resistance is smaller.
From the data obtained in Tables 1-3, we were able to plot multiple graphs using excel. These graphs give a better representation of the data as seen in Figures 1-9. It can be seen that each figure shows a slight increase in CO2 production, which signifies a possible change in metabolic rate. Figures 4 and 7 show a relatively large change between the control and fox urine. The changes in slope between theses two are 0.0267 for Figure 4’s slopes and 0.0192 for Figure 7’s slopes.

1. The test subjects will prepare for sleep by acquiring everything needed for the subjects’ sleep preferences. 2. The test subjects will all set alarms on their smartphones for approximately 6, 8, and 10 hours after the subjects’ enter the resting period (Subjects may wake during the resting period for the bathroom, but they must not stay awake for more than ten minutes at a time to prevent as much deviation as possible.). 3.
1. There are two ways of maximizing points in this experiment. The first one is that I should connect myself to a vertex that is in the biggest component and purchases immunization. Since the probability of being infected is based off of expected value, I would have less than 1% chance of getting infected. The second way is that I try to make myself stay in the second-largest connected component.
1. What area/aspect of this setting is the most challenging? 2. In the setting, you work in, is there a certain population of patients you see more? How does this affect you?

Lastly, the unknown compound was reacted with two different salts. For the first salt, 0.50 grams of KCl was mixed with 5 mL of water in one beaker while 0.5 grams of NaNO3 was mixed with 5 mL of water in a different beaker. Then, the NaNO3 solution was added to the KCl solution. To perform the reaction with the second salt, 0.50 grams of KCl was mixed with 5 mL of water and 1 mL of 1 M Ag(NO3)2 was added. After performing each reaction, the solution was observed to see if a reaction occurred and the pH value of the resulting solution was tested using a pH
Tn 4351 was originally isolated from bacteroides fragilis [30] . The transposon was successfully introduced into Cytophaga succinicans, Flavobacterium meningosepticum, Flexibacter canadiansis, Flexibacter strain SFI and Sporocytophaga myxococcoides by conjugation [25]. Tn 4351carries two antibiotic resistance gene. One of the codes for resistance to erythromycin and clindamycin which is expressed in bactroides but not in E.Coli. The other gene codes for resistance in tetracycline and is expressed in aerobically grpwn E. coli, but not in anaerobically grpwn E. coli or in bacteroides.

In this lab there were five different stations. For the first station we had to determine an unknown mass and the percent difference. To find the unknown mass we set up the equation Fleft*dleft = Fright*dright. We then substituted in the values (26.05 N * 41cm = 34cm * x N) and solved for Fright to get (320.5g). To determine the percent difference we used the formula Abs[((Value 1 - Value 2) / average of 1 & 2) * 100], substituted the values (Abs[((320.5 - 315.8) /
Activity 1 Increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels because it caused to decrease in the concentration gradient. Increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value because extracellular K+ is increasing, which it will cause intracellular K+ to be less. A change in extracellular Na+ did not alter the membrane potential in the resting neuron because there are a lot of K+ leak channels than Na+ leak channels The relative permeability of the membrane to Na+ and K+ in a resting neuron is that Na+ leak channel is less, but K+ leak channels has more so the membrane become less permeable to Na+.
TLC was used to identify the actual unknown product as well as other products/reactants present in the filtered solution. The procedure was conducted by placing a TLC plate in a developing chamber that is filled with a small amount of solvent. The solvent cannot be too polar because it will cause spotted compounds on the TLC plate to rise up too fast, while a very non-polar solvent will not allow the spots to move. The polarity of the spots also determines how far it moves on the plate; non-polar spots are higher than polar ones. After spots on the TLC form, the Rf values are calculated and used to analyze the similarity of the compounds.
Empirical Formula of Magnesium Oxide - Lab Report Background Information/Introduction: The aim of this lab is to determine the empirical formula of magnesium oxide by converting magnesium to magnesium oxide. As an alkali earth metal, magnesium reacts violently when heated with oxygen to produce magnesium oxide and magnesium nitride as a byproduct. In order to obtain only magnesium oxide, distilled water was added so that magnesium nitride will react and convert to magnesium hydroxide. Further heating then oxidizes all of the magnesium into magnesium oxide.
