  • Unit: Stoichiometry Lesson: #10 Topics: Solvay Process
    Unit: Stoichiometry Lesson: #10 Topics: Solvay Process The Solvay Process: A Case Study Many important industrial processes involve chemical reactions that are difficult to perform and still be economically feasible. In some cases, the overall process must follow a series of reaction steps. Sodium carbonate is a chemical that is needed in large amounts – it is used in the production of glass and soap. Historically, sodium carbonate was produced by burning plants or coal and mixing the ashes with water This method was both inefficient and very expensive because of the large amount of material that needed to be burned. The Solvay process was developed as a cost effective alternative. It involves a series of reaction steps and has a net reaction of: CaCO3 (s) + 2 NaCl (aq) Na2CO3 (aq) + CaCl2 (aq) A net reaction is determined by looking at the various reaction steps and eliminating any chemical that appears as both a reactant and a product in the various steps. These chemicals are known as intermediates. Step 1: Calcium carbonate (limestone) is decomposed by heat to form calcium oxide (lime) and carbon dioxide. CaCO3 (s) CaO (s) + CO2 (g) Step 2: Carbon dioxide reacts with aqueous ammonia and water to form aqueous ammonium hydrogen carbonate. CO2 (g) + NH3 (aq) + H2O (l) NH4HCO3 (aq) Step 3: The aqueous ammonium hydrogen carbonate reacts with sodium chloride to produce ammonium chloride and solid baking soda. NH4HCO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) NH4Cl (aq) + NaHCO3 (s) Step 4: The baking soda is heated up and decomposed into sodium carbonate, water vapor and carbon dioxide. 2 NaHCO3 (s) Na2CO3 (s) + H2O (g) + CO2 (g) Step 5: The lime that was produced in the first step is mixed with water to produce slaked lime (calcium hydroxide).

  • The Reaction of Calcium Chloride with Carbonate Salts
    The Reaction of Calcium Chloride with Carbonate Salts PRE-LAB ASSIGNMENT: Reading: Chapter 3 & Chapter 4, sections 1-3 in Brown, LeMay, Bursten, & Murphy. 1. What product(s) might be expected to form when solid lithium carbonate is added to an aqueous solution of calcium chloride? Write a balanced chemical equation for this process. 2. How many grams of lithium carbonate would you need to fully react with one mole of calcium chloride? Please show your work. INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this lab is to help you discover the relationships between the reactants and products in a precipitation reaction. In this lab you will react a calcium chloride solution with lithium carbonate, sodium carbonate, or potassium carbonate. The precipitate that results will be filtered and weighed. In each determination you will use the same amount of calcium chloride and different amounts of your carbonate salt. This experiment is a "discovery"- type experiment. The procedure will be carefully described, but the analysis of the data is left purposely vague. You will work in small groups to decide how best to work up the data. In the process you will have the chance to discover some principles, to use what you have learned in lecture, and to practice thinking about manipulative details and theory at the same time. Plotting your data in an appropriate manner should verify the identity of the precipitate and clarify the relationship between the amount of carbonate salt and the yield of precipitate. Predicting the formulas of ionic compounds. Compounds like calcium chloride (CaCl2) and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) are ionic substances.

  • BORON Boron Compounds Are Used in the Manufacture of Glass, Soaps and Detergents and As Flame Retardants
    BORON Boron compounds are used in the manufacture of glass, soaps and detergents and as flame retardants. Naturally occurring boron is present in groundwater primarily as a result of leaching from rocks and soils containing borates and borosilicates. The borate content of surface water can be increased as a result of wastewater discharges, but this use has decreased significantly, and levels of boron in wastewater discharges continue to fall. Guideline value 2.4 mg/l Occurrence Concentrations vary widely and depend on the surrounding geology and wastewater discharges. For most of the world, the concentration of boron in drinking-water is judged to be below 0.5 mg/l. TDI 0.17 mg/kg body weight, based on a BMDL 05 of 10.3 mg boron/kg body weight per day for developmental toxicity (decreased fetal body weight in rats) and an uncertainty factor of 60 (10 for interspecies variation and 6 for intraspecies variation) Limit of detection 0.15 µg/l by ICP/MS; 6–10 µg/l by ICP/AES Treatment performance Conventional water treatment (coagulation, sedimentation, filtration) does not significantly remove boron, and special methods need to be installed in order to remove boron from waters with high boron concentrations. Ion exchange and reverse osmosis processes may enable substantial reduction but are likely to be prohibitively expensive. Blending with low-boron supplies may be the only economical method to reduce boron concentrations in waters where these concentrations are high. Guideline derivation • allocation to water 40% of TDI • body weight 60 kg adult • consumption 2 litres/day Additional comments Because it will be difficult to achieve the guideline value of 2.4 mg/l in some desalinated supplies and in areas with high natural boron levels, local regulatory and health authorities should consider a value in excess of 2.4 mg/l by assessing exposure from other sources.

  • Synthesis, Characterization and Fungicidal Effects of Some
    Journal of Manmohan Memorial Institute of Health Sciences (JMMIHS) Synthesis, Characterization and Fungicidal Effects of some Organoborates Shaheen Akther1 Khanal DP2 Ullah SS3 Abstract Synthesis of benzoyl borate, phthasloyl borate and oxyl borate was done and characterized by infra red, ultraviolet and mass spectra. All newly synthesized and characterized organoborates were tested for their antifungal activity against pencillium that spoilt mostly celluloid materials stored in museum. All synthesized organoborates are unstable in room temperature and quickly degraded on exposure to air. Benzoyl borate found to be most active antifungal compound of the series against penicillium. The fungicidal activity increases in hydrophobicity and electron withdrawing nature of the benzene ring substituents. These compounds may be good fungicidal for the conservation of celluloid materials lying in the museum. Key words: Organoborates, Silver metaborate, Acyl chloride, spore, Antifungal. Introduction All organoborates are synthesized with the used of silver metaborate (AgBO2) and boric acid [1] with organic halides such as 3,5, dinitrobenzoyl chloride and p-nitrobenzoyl chloride. Since the silver atom in AgBO2 in photo activated state the reaction with organic halides having a polarized halogen atom will readily takes place with the formation of silver halides. Steric effect is an important factor in determining the course of reactions well as the stability of the product. It is observed that acyl chloride reacts more readily than sterically hindered pyrollium chloride [2]. The reaction of silver metaborate with organic halides may be ascribed to an ionic mechanism. Indeed acyllium [3] ion have been recognized as possible intermediate in acid catalyzed etherification in Friedel- Crafts reactions through the universality of such mechanism in doubt and the ion is assumed to resonate between the below structures: R – C O+ R – C+ O The presence of CO group polarizes the carbon halogen bond to great extent.

  • CASE STUDY Methane Recovery at Non-Coal Mines
    CASE STUDY Methane Recovery at Non-coal Mines Background Existing methane recovery projects at non-coal mines reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by up to 3 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e). Although methane emissions are generally associated with coal mines, methane is also found in salt, potash, trona, diamond, gold, base metals, and lead mines throughout the world. Many of these deposits are located adjacent to hydrocarbon (e.g., coal and oil) deposits where methane originates. Consequently, during the process of mining non-coal deposits, methane may be released. Overview of Methane Recovery Projects Beatrix Gold Mine, South Africa Promethium Carbon, a carbon and climate change advisory firm, has developed a project to capture and use methane from the Beatrix Gold Mine in Free State, South Africa (see box).

  • The Effects of Borax on Milk Yield and Selected Metabolic Parameters in Austrian Simmental (Fleckvieh) Cows
    Veterinarni Medicina, 60, 2015 (4): 175–180 Original Paper doi: 10.17221/8104-VETMED The effects of borax on milk yield and selected metabolic parameters in Austrian Simmental (Fleckvieh) cows M. Kabu, C. Uyarlar Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Afyon Kocatepe University, Afyonkarahisar, Turkey ABSTRACT: This study was conducted to determine the effects of orally administered borax on milk yield and on several blood variables related to metabolism in early lactation in Austrian Simmental cows (Fleckvieh). Twenty primiparous cows were selected at parturition and then assigned to one of two groups, the control group or the borax group. The study lasted for four weeks. Borax was administered orally at 0.2 mg/kg/day (Boron group) to all treatment cows shortly after the noon milking, whereas cows in the control group were not treated. All cows consumed the same diet. All feeds in the diet were analysed for crude cellulose, protein, ether extract, ash, and dry matter according to the Weende Analysis Systems, in addition to ADF and NDF, according to Van Soest. Blood samples were collected from all cows via the vena jugularis on lactation Days 0, 7, 15, 21 and 28 and ana- lysed for the following: serum boron (B), non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), beta-hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA), total cholesterol (TChol), high density lipids (HDL), total protein (TP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), albumin (ALB), creatine (CRE), uric acid (UA), glucose (GLU), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotrans- ferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) concentrations. Serum B concentration was higher in the borax group than in the control group at Weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the experiment.
