I put together and ran a SN2 reaction with three nucleophiles at once to confirm that iodine would be the best nucleophile 1-heptanol + Nacl, NaBr, NaI ---(conc H3PO4)--> 1-chloroheptane + 1-bromoheptane + 1-iodoheptane + H2O My GCMS results confirmed this. I had two major peaks,1-iodoheptane and leftover 1-heptanol. I calculated there was a 1:1 ratio of 1-iodoheptane and 1-heptanol. The peaks for the other two products were so small they hardly showed up. Now I want to balance the final equation. I got 3 1-heptanol and 3 H2O, but I don't know if this is correct. What about the 1:1 ratio between 1-heptanol and 1-iodoheptane? Does that matter in the final ba…

Hi there I need some help with a "clinical detective story" on my med studies. My task is: alpha-ketoisocaproic acid: highly elevated alpha-ketoisovaleric acid: highly elevated Describe the chemical structure of these acids. Are these acids common in our body? If yes, how are they produced in our body? If not, from what substances can our body alternatively create them? I'm not really sure where to look. Found something about metabolism of leucine, but not too much. Can anyone help me out here, and give me a direction where to look for information and stuff? Thanks

We have to identify the following leaf cross-sections, what environment it is from, and relate the identified plant's environment to its stomate distribution. Could anyone help us or tell us how we can approach the issue of identifying these plants? We tried our best to take pictures of the slides we were looking at under the microscope, but we apologize for the lack of clarity.

What was one of the key arguments about large-scale immigration that writer Tamar Jacoby addressed in her 2002 article "Too Many Immigrants"? Foreign workers took jobs from American workers. Unemployment rates rose in cities with large immigrant populations. Cities and states with the largest immigration populations had faster economic growth and lower unemployment. Refugees and other immigrants had little effect on states' fiscal problems.

Hello guys, For Chemistry we have performed a gaschromatography experiment with a nano2-gaschromatograph with nonpolar/apolar column. The stationary phase is probably a GLC but we aren't sure since we weren't informed on it and I don't know whether it'll be relevant to the question I'm gonna ask. For the experiment, we had to identify the substances in the gas of liquid lighters, and capture their retention time. Now the question we were asked: What can you change from the experiment to make the peaks (the retentiontime) of the different substances further away from each other in the chromatogram? I am still in high school so I probably know nothing about un…

The obvious answer is that there is no glycogen left, but I recall that it proceeds more slowly with time during a fast. A table in the notes shows consumption declining over time. I recall that there is some kind of control that governs this slowing of glycogen degradation, but I can't remember the name of the process, feedback, or enzyme that is responsible. I have tried Marks' Basic Medical Biochemistry, Silverthorn Human Physiology , the class notes, and Google. They were all a no go. the way the question is worded I am looking for something that acts on phosphatase 1 and phosphorylase.

So I've read several journals about isoflavon and blood glucose, and how they tested it on diabetic rats... journals concluded that this isoflavon can lower blood glucose but I can't seem to understand how so... Can someone help explain to me briefly?? Because I read several journals, some said it's due to its estrogenic effects, but I thought oestrogen makes you gain weight instead because it's "fat"?? Like, what does it do to our blood glucose levels? I also read that it stimulates cell's response towards insulin, but can't seem to understand it completely either... I know this is not the "homework answer" kind of thing.. I just need help in understanding and a …

Glucose can be metabolised through glycolysis, the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation to produce energy for the body in the form of ATP. a. Calculate the net number of ATP that can be generated from four (4) molecules of glucose in the liver. Assume that this is occurring under optimal conditions. Show all workings. (150 words) Would the same number of ATP be produced if the four molecules of glucose were being metabolised in the muscle tissue? How many ATP would be generated? Please explain why this answer is different from you answer in a.

If the pressure of water flowing through a 5.6×10^(2) −m -radius pipe at a speed of 1.2 m/s is 2.2 × 10^(5) N/m2. Part A was What is the flow rate of the water? I was able to get this because Q=vA Part B was "What is the pressure in the water after it goes up a 4.4 −m -high hill and flows in a 4.1×10^(2)−m -radius pipe?" I don't understand Part B can anyone help me?

Ok that is the question, the first part anyways. It does not make sense due to "VOLTAGE drop" (I think?) but I do not get why it doesn't resist CURRENT? I guess I am just confused about Ohm's Law in general. I get the formula of current equals voltage over resistance but I am just super confused. Thanks in advance

As usual, I am having a real tough time with this... I have attached my work I have done and the questions. PV=nRT where R is a constant @ ((.08026 L) x (atm)/ (K) x (mol) ) So if I could air out my thought process here to so you guys could help me determine what I am doing wrong in my thinking. I am looking at the column of air in which the bubble passes as a prism so I can gather the volume. I know that the density of both H20 and Hg are given and are 1.025g/cm3 & 13.6g/cm3 respectively. So now that I have density I can gather some information in terms of D=(Mass/Volume) Therefore: H20 ((1.025g)/1cm3) or ((1.025g)/1mL) ((13.6g)/1cm3) or ((13.6…

Acceleration of a Mass in a Pulley System Block 1 of mass m1 slides on a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ with respect to the horizontal. One end of a massless inextensible string is attached to block 1. The string is wound around a frictionless movable pulley P of negligible mass and is also attached to the wall at the base of the inclined plane. Pulley P is connected by a second massless inextensible string to block 2 of mass m2 via a second, frictionless pulley that is fixed in place. Block 2 hangs over the end of the inclined plane (see figure). The downward gravitational acceleration is g. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of block 2 after the syste…

So, I have currently written out my equation for H2O, this being (determining molar mass): 2x(1.01)+1x(16.00) However the question also asks: "What is the mass, in grams, of 8.52 mol of the substance" How would I carry this out? Please keep in mind I'm new to all of this so please go easy on me. If you don't get what I'm asking I'm basically asking if I would add on the 8.52 or something else.

hey guys, the question says... A set of numbers x, 7, 11, 5x has a mean of 9. Find the values of x and the first quartile. firstly, I got x = 3, which is right. but I got problems with finding the first quartile. btw, the answer is 5. so, what does need to be done to find the first quartile in an ungroup data, or does the answer given is wrong??? find quartile in group data seems to be easier... ;O

Let G be an n×n grid whose edges are labelled with natural numbers. Starting in the top-left corner, consider paths in G reaching the bottom-right corner by walking along edges either down or to the right. The weight of a path is the sum over all numbers encountered along the edges it traverses. Devise an algorithm in pseudo-code that computes the set of all weights of all paths reaching the bottom-right corner (you may assume standard set data structures and operations on them to be available). Give a rough estimation of the running time of your algorithm: is it polynomial, exponential, etc.? Justify your answer.
