    Aromatic Compounds: Aromatic compounds, also known as arenes or aromatics, are chemical compounds that contain a ring of continuously overlapping p orbitals (planar). They have a delocalized pi electron in the ring. They are characterized by one or more planar rings of atoms joined by covalent bonds of two different kinds. The unique stability of these compounds is referred as Aromacity. Although aromatic has its origin from compounds characterized by its odor or fragrant, now, in chemistry, to

    Organic chemistry is the complexity of natural compounds. It is applied to the production of mundane objects that include: plastics, polymers, soaps, detergents and drugs. Such compounds of organic chemistry involve the identification, modelling, chemical reactions and synthesis – it initiates the concept of design implemented in organic compounds (Helmenstine A, 2014). An example of an organic compound is the product of organic drugs in which are manipulated behind the chemistry of its design. A

    The unknown compound was solid at room temperature and was white. It was soluble in water, as indicated by Table 1. Of the list of possible known compounds, the unknown could not be CaCO3 or MgCO3 because neither one of those compounds are soluble in water, but it could have been any salt as the compound is ionic. From there, a conductivity test proved that the unknown compound conducted 1.1 volts of electricity, meaning the compound contained both positively and negatively charged ions that move

    Purpose Statement: In this experiment, we will determine the chemical formula of an unknown hydrated copper chloride compound which is composed of copper and chlorine. We will use stoichiometry, which is the relationship between quantities of materials in a chemical reaction, to determine the chemical formula for a compound. We will use the mole to mole conversion to find the formula of a hydrated compound with the general formula CuxCly.zH2O. We will convert the masses of water, copper, and chlorine

    3.3.1 Neurotransmitter indicators Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemical compounds that transmit neural signals from one neuron to another. Many neurotransmitters are amino acids, such as glutamate, glycine and GABA, or biogenic amines, such as dopamine and serotonin, or even peptides and proteins, such as somatostatin and substance P {Snyder 1979}. Binding of neurotransmitters may either inhibit or excite the postsynaptic neurons. Among the numerous neurotransmitters, glutamate is the major excitatory

    on determining the chemical formula for a hydrated compound containing copper, chloride, and water molecules in the crystal structure of the solid compound, using law of definite proportion. The general formula of the compound is CuxCly•zH2O, and aim is to determine chemical formula of this compound. Law of definite proportion, sometimes called Proust’s law, states that a compound always has exactly the same proportion of elements by mass. This means that contents of a compound does not depend on

    Once soil is intoxicated, the chemical compounds in synthetic fertilizer create a harmful environment for microbial life and are later dispersed to surrounding areas through the process of hydrology. In naturally fertile soil, microbial life is diverse and abundant. In fact, as soil microbiologist David Zuber has stated in his Soil Microbiology FAQ article, “there can be hundreds of millions to billions of microbes in a single gram (about the size of a navy bean in volume) of soil.” These microbes
