Investigating the Behavior of Cobalt(II) Chloride and Its Intermediate Complex Ions

CALIFORNIA STATE SCIENCE FAIR 2012 PROJECT SUMMARY Name(s) Project Number Seowoo Choi S0608 Project Title Investigating the Behavior of Cobalt(II) Chloride and Its Intermediate Complex Ions Abstract Objectives/Goals The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the reaction of hydrogen peroxide, sodium potassium tartrate, and cobalt(II) chloride. The current literature does not present a definitive and detailed explanation of the reaction. This is an attempt to contribute to the understanding of this interesting reaction. Methods/Materials Cobalt(II) chloride, hydrogen peroxide solution(30%), Potassium sodium tartrate solution, tubes, beakers, distilled water, graduated cylinders, hot plate, spatula, stirring rod, thermometer, pH meter, and glowing splint method Results The catalyst cobalt(II) chloride is not consumed during the reaction. Speed of reaction increases as the temperature and molarity of the catalyst are increased. Conclusions/Discussion Many literatures say that the products of this reaction are carbon dioxide, water, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide. I did glowing splint test to show that the product of this reaction is oxygen. pH meter showed that the solution is not basic, which indicates that the sodium and potassium hydroxides are not produced. I formed my own explanation for this reaction. The first step of this experiment is heating the sodium potassium tartrate. When heat is applied to it, it would rotate to from a ring structure. Added hydrogen peroxide and cobalt(II) chloride would react with the ring-structured sodium potassium tartrate to form a final structure, 3,4-Dihydroxydihydro-2,5-furandione molecule. Therefore according to my explanation, the product of this reaction seemed to be oxygen gas, restored hydrogen peroxide, unconsumed cobalt(II) chloride, and 3,4-Dihydroxydihydro-2,5-furandione molecule. Summary Statement This project is performed to see if the result of reaction of cobalt(II) chloride, hydrogen peroxide and sodium potassium tartrate agrees with the current literature that does not give a definitive and detailed explanation of the reaction.

ABSTRACT YORK, KAREN MARIE. Isolation, Characterization, and Application of Tobacco Based Colorants to Cotton. (Under the direction of Dr. Harold Freeman and Dr. Melissa Pasquinelli). The coloration of textiles with natural dyes, especially those from plants, has persisted over the years, despite the economic and application advantages of synthetic dyes. Factors associated with continuing interest in natural dyes include their biodegradability, a perceived environmental advantage, and exposure to potentially genotoxic precursors that characterize certain azo dyes. On the other hand, the use of natural dyes in textile coloration has required solving challenges associated with their isolation from plant materials, their application to substrates for which they have no inherent substantivity, and their modest fastness properties under end-use conditions. The present investigation emerged from a growing interest in natural dyes and an interest in identifying alternatives to the use of tobacco for smoking. The presence of color- bearing flavonoids compounds in dried tobacco and the availability of large quantities of tobacco dust waste material from cigarette manufacturing made the examination of textile coloration using tobacco dust extract a logical undertaking. With this in mind, methods for the isolation of colorants from commercial tobacco dust and their use in the coloration of cotton fabric were developed. The light and wash fastness properties of the resultant fabric were determined. Results from extraction studies indicated that hot water was a suitable solvent for tobacco dust extractions and that 30% by weight extractable material could be obtained using an Accelerated Solvent Extractor. Column chromatography on the extract, followed by LC- MS analysis, established the presence of rutin along with two other unidentified colored components.

Toxicological Profile for Antimony
ANTIMONY AND COMPOUNDS 93 CHAPTER 4. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL INFORMATION 4.1 CHEMICAL IDENTITY Antimony (Sb) is in the fourth row of group 5A (IUPAC group 15) in the periodic table, residing between arsenic and bismuth. Antimony displays four oxidation states: -3, 0, +3, and +5. The most common and stable oxidation states of antimony in aqueous solutions and biological fluids are Sb(III) and Sb(V). Antimony is sometimes referred to as a metalloid, indicating that it displays both metallic and nonmetallic characteristics (Li 2011).

KHT Deposits and Cold Stability
ask the KHT deposits and cold stability POTASSIUM BITARTRATE (KHT) is the crystalline Figure 1 shows the distribution of the tartrate species as a substance that drops out of solution when a wine is cold function of pH. The maximum concentration of HT- (which stabilised. However, if cold stabilisation is unsuccessful, wines can precipitate as KHT) occurs between pH 3.6 and 3.7, can end up with KHT deposits after packaging and these depending on the alcohol concentration, and this is the point represent around 25-35% of the AWRI helpdesk’s haze/deposit at which precipitation will be greatest. Consequently, any wine investigations each year. So why does this type of deposit treatments that might change a wine’s pH, such as blending, continue to be an issue for the wine industry? One reason is acid additions or malolactic fermentation, could affect KHT that there is no universal definition of ‘cold stability’, so a wine precipitation. If a wine has been ‘cold stabilised’ prior to such might pass one type of ‘cold stability’ test yet fail another. A treatments, cold stability checks must be conducted again second reason is that wines contain a range of compounds that before bottling. can inhibit KHT crystallisation, and these can change over time, such that they no longer inhibit crystallisation. This can WHY DOES WINE PH SOMETIMES CHANGE DURING lead to precipitation of tartrates in wine previously thought to COLD STABILISATION? be cold stable. This is a common question, but one that is hard to answer in just a few words. A detailed explanation of this phenomenon is SO WHAT EXACTLY IS ‘COLD STABILITY’? available on the AWRI’s website under the heading ‘Potassium Cold stability can be described as a wine’s tendency to instability’ in the Winemaking/Instabilities section (or enter precipitate KHT crystals when exposed to low temperature.
