The processing of Ȗ-Al2O3 by phosphoric acid increases amount of the centers, on which carries out reaction of acetamide dehydration. The kinetic model of a limiting stage of reaction – the acetamide dehydration to acetonitrile was suggested. In the process of ammonolysis of acetic acid it was demonstrated that the use of catalysts promoted by phosphoric acid and ratio NH3:CH3COOH=(3-4):1 at temperatures of a reactor 360-390 °ɋ leads to the increase of acetonitrile productivity to 0.7-0.8 g/cm3·h and allows to minimize formation of by-products. ©© 20142014 Published The Authors. by Elsevier Published B.V. byThis Elsevier is an open B.V. access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license (Peer-reviewhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ under responsibility of Tomsk Polytechnic).

  • Problem Set Two F'09-Solution
    CHEMISTRY 465 PROBLEM SET TWO Fall 2010 Name date 1. Skoog 26-2: The general elution problem arises whenever chromatograms are obtained on samples that contain species with widely different distribution constants. When conditions are such that good separations of the more stongly retained species are realized, lack of resolution among the weakly held species is observed. Conversely when conditions are chosen that give satisfactory separations of the weakly retained compounds, severe band broadening and long retention times are encountered for the strongly bound species. The general elution problem is often solved in liquid chromatography by gradient elution and in gas chromatography by temperature programming 2. Skoog 26-6: Variables that affect the selectivity factor α include the composition of the mobile phase, the column temperature, the composition of the stationary phase, and chemical interactions between the stationary phase and one of the solutes being separated 3. Skoog 26-8: The number of plates in a column can be determined by measuring the retention time tR 2 and the width of a peak at its base W. The number of plates N is then N = 16(tR/W) 4. Skoog 26-10: Longitudinal diffusion is much more important in GC that in LC because gaseous diffusion coefficients are orders of magnitude larger than liquid values. Longitudinal diffusion is a large contribution to H at low flow rates in GC. The initial decreases in H in plots of plate height vs. flow rate are thus largely the result of longitudinal diffusion 5. Skoog 26-11: Gradient elution is a method of performing liquid chromatography in which the composition of the mobile phase is change continuously or in steps in order to optimize separations.

These results are representative of studies concerning solar system objects exposed to cosmic rays. In the Kuiper Belt, region of Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs), acetone, N2 and other small molecules were detected and may be present on icy surfaces. Bombardment by cosmic rays triggers chemical reactions leading to synthesis of larger molecules. In this work, destruction cross sections of acetone and nitrogen molecules in solid phase are determined from a sequence of infrared spectra obtained at increasing ion beam fluence. The results are analyzed and compared with those of previous experiments performed with pure acetone.
