Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew of a chemical that trap odour? The idea is to design cat-litter using perlite as the main ingredient however; as perlite doesn't have 'odour-trapping' properties I was hoping to mix it with another chemical... Thanks...

Hey, this is a multiple choice with a explanation as to which enzyme is unsuitable as a marker enzyme, and i actually have no idea! a. Glutamate dehydrogenase b. Cytidylyl transferase c. Succinate dehydrogenase d. Acid phosphatase e. Malate dehyrogenase f. Citrate synthase g...

Hi there, sorry this question may already have been answered, several times. I tried to use the search function but couldn't come across such a thread. Long story short, I was wondering what you think of the future in Genetics? I'd imagine each embryo will be genetically modified perhaps to...

Right so, increasing the concentration of the HCl (aq) solution will increase the H+ ions available..:S But my main query is.. Does the HCl split up to form H+ and Cl- ions which then react with the Mg to form MgCl2, if so what causes this separation to occur.. Is it simply becuase 'Mg wants...

Thanks for a quick reply.. A magnesium strip will be put into an (aq) HCl at different concentration levels.. The higher the concentration the faster the rate of decomposition.. but I cannot justify why.. :S

Hi.. Im trying to figure out what the affect of HCl on a magnesium strip at different concentration levels has? I can't figure out a 'scientific' response and therefore can't formulate a hypothesis :/ Any help will be appreciated.

3 alkenes are obtained. cis-but-2-ene, trans-but-2-ene, and but-1-ene. and I think the trans isomers will be the most abundant..

Hey.. Sorry to be so dopey but I'm unable to write a valid hypothesis about the solubility of KNO3 in water as temperature increases... I'm unsure which laws apply and how to write up a decent standard hypothesis.. could you possibly give me a few key terms I could research or write a few...

well I'd use the statistical formula for variance Variance = Sum of (x - xbar)^2 / n

1. 'Find an expression in terms of x for the variance of: 9,4,x,3' Give your answer in the form of ax^2 + bx + c I would usually give you some information of how I could possibly tackle this question but unfortunately I have no idea. Could someone shed some light? Thanks

What are the basic principles behind oscillating reactions, I mean, if its known as 'chemical magic' what must it undergo to be such a thing? I've been looking all over the web and havn't been able to find enough information, for example, how the laws of thermodynamics are broken or how it...

Hi I was going to do an experiment on Ice Cream (Project) However.. I can't seem to find valuable data off the internet. What I'm looking for is, what an Ice Cream is chemically made up off, the bonds in an ice cream, the forces between bonds etc and whether there are certain experiments I can...

I'm writing a research paper on Autism, and I couldn't find much information on fraternal twins who suffer from Autism. So really if one Child suffers from Autism what are the chances that the second will also suffer, and any other information within the twins area. Thanks in advance

Hey! Today I had a school visit to the UCL Chemistry department and was shown an Oscillating Reaction unfortunately I wasn't able to get the full 'recipe' to re-do the experiment so can someone be kind enough to write them down. Also! Would someone possibly direct me how to go on about...

I have a question which I must do yet I can't manage to solve it, any help will be appreciated. It would be theoretically possible for calcium to forma fluoride CaF containing Ca+ ions and the F- ions in equal numbers. Assuming that the lattice enthalpy of the hypothetical compound is similar...
