A Study Of The Curcumin Method For Boron Determination, James Edward Hardcastle

Master's Theses

The purpose of the research project, of which this thesis is a partial report, was two fold: first, to develop a method for determining small quantities of boron, and second, to develop a rapid field test for the determination of atmospheric boron. A literature survey revealed that the curcumin method is the most sensitive colorimetric method presently available for boron determination. Also, the curcumin paper test should be readily adapted to the determination of atmospheric boron.

An Investigation Of Solvent Extraction Techniques In The Determination Of Formation Constants Of Complex Species In Aqueous Silver Chloride Solution, David Martin Bodily

Theses and Dissertations

Solvent extraction techniques have been used to determine formation constants for molecular silver chloride and dichloro silver (I) ion in unsaturated aqueous solutions. Nitrobenzene was used to extract the molecular silver chloride from the aqueous silver chloride solution. The total concentration of silver in each phase was determined by radioassay techniques and related by an expression involving the equilibrium constants. The reciprocal of the distribution ratio times the activity of the chloride ion was plotted versus the activity of the chloride ion and portions of the curve were analyzed by the method of least squares to obtain values for the …

The Dilute Solution Chemistry Of Antimony, Kent H. Jones

Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs

Investigation of the chemistry of the elements by conventional methods is generally limited to concentrations on the order of 10^-5 M or higher. The discovery of radio-activity opened new fields in chemistry among which is the obtaining of information concerning chemical behavior of elements at very low concentrations. For many years after the initial discovery of radioactivity in 1896 by Becquerel, the study of low-concentration chemistry was limited to about ten naturally occurring radioactive elements. A renewed interest in this field was generated after 1934 when it was discovered by Curie and Joliot that radioactive elements could be artificially …

Potentiometric Titrations Of Metal Ions With Edta, Donald Theodore Carlson

Honors Theses

Ethylenediaminetetracetic acid, known commonly as EDTA and commercially as Versene, Trilon B, Sequestrene, and Complexone II, III, and IV; was first produced in 1936 by the I.G. Farbenindustrie. EDTA reacts chemically as a ligand. That is, it forms a complex by occupying two or more coordination prositions of the atom it reacts with. The resulting complex is called a chelate, which stems from the Greek word for clas. EDTA acts as a sequestering agent by forming stable, water-soluble chelates with metal ions.

The Determination Of The Cross-Sectional Area Of A Stearic Acid Molecule, Michael Stacey Dryer

Honors Theses

The fundamental relationship determining the area per molecule is: A = SM/ (g/c x v x N) A = area per molecule. S = area occupied by the monolayer. M = molecular weight. g = grams of stearic acid in volume c. c = volume of solution. v = aliquot of c delivered to the surface. N = Avogadro’s Number. Each of the terms in the above equation will be discussed in detail below.

Further Studies On Zirconia Gels, James Emmons Anderson

Honors Theses

When solutions of zirconium oxychloride and sodium acetate are mixed at room temperature (25°c.), a grey-white hydrogel of zirconia is formed. This gel structure gradually weakens on standing, and finally becomes a water-clear sol. Heating this sol to 6o°c. will form a similar gel, stable at this temperature, which will reliquefy on cooling to 25°c. The gelation-reliquefaction cycle can apparently be carried out indefinitely. Such behavior is in direct contrast to normal gelation. The so-called “irreversible gels”, such as those of silicic acid, show stability at all temperatures; while other “reversible gels”, such as common gelatin, set at lower temperatures …

Liquid-Vapor Equilibria In The System: Isopropyl Alcohol-Dibromomethane, John Henry Nickles

Honors Theses

The purpose of this research project was to determine more closely the liquid vapor equilibrium curve and the boiling point and composition of the azeotrope formed in the system isopropyl alcohol - dibromomethane. This system is reported in Horsley's book from Lecat as forming an azeotrope at a bioling point less than 81.0 degrees Celsius. Both components have boiling points of less than 100 degrees Celsius and their refractive indices are well separated, thus making investigation with fairly simple, but accurate apparatus possible.

Time Variations On The Cosmic-Ray Flux Near The Geomagnetic Equator, Charles L. Hyder

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

The search for an anisotrophy in the penetrating component of the cosmic-ray flux is usually carried out with narrow-angle directionally sensitive detectors located near the surface of the earth. Directional sensitivity is achieved by using a cosmic-ray telescope, consisting of Geiger counters or of scintillation counters, in a coincidence arrangement. Thus a solid angle of acceptance for the cosmic-ray particles is defined.

Irrigation And Drainage Problems In Uruguay, Jerald Emmet Christiansen

Reports

Synopsis: Uruguay irrigates about 65,000 acres, mostly rice (74%) and sugar cane (15%). Summer rainfall averages about 3.5 in. per month, but frequent droughts seriously affect both crops and livestock. Irrigation can be increased by storage in small reservoirs on tributary streams by means of low earth dams. Some areas will require flood control and draiange before intensive agriculture can be practiced.
