Interim Report On The Florida Crawfish Investigation., Marine Laboratory Jan 1948

Interim Report On The Florida Crawfish Investigation., Marine Laboratory

RSMAS Technical Reports

During 1944-1945 the volume of lobsters landed in the spiny lobsters industry decreased to about one half of the 1943 volume and to little more than one third of the amound landed during 1941, which was the year of peak production. Since it was suggested that the cause of this might be overfishing, the University of Miami Marine Laboratory was invited to carry out an investigation in co-operation with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and the Florida State Board of Conservation.

Preparation And Physical Properties Of Some Unsymmetrically Substituted Ethanes, William F. Buth Jan 1948

Preparation And Physical Properties Of Some Unsymmetrically Substituted Ethanes, William F. Buth

Bachelors’ Theses

Early in 1947, while investigating the potentialities of various compounds for use as liquid dielectric materials, A method was found for the preparation of unsymmetrical ditolyl ethane by a condensation method using sulfuric acid. This material was thought to have excellent dielectric characteristics so it was prepared and tested. The tests were favorable enough, to warrant further investigation into the field of the unsymmetrical ethanes. Being aware of the physical properties required for a good liquid dielectric; it was proposed to prepare a few of the related compounds for which no data was known to exist and to select those …


A Study Of The Prussian Blue Test For Nitrogen, Marilyn M. Erickson Jan 1948

A Study Of The Prussian Blue Test For Nitrogen, Marilyn M. Erickson

Bachelors’ Theses

The problem of obtaining good nitrogen tests on all types of organic compounds interested the author as a re­sult of past experience in the identification of organic compounds.

The practical application of a positive solution to this problem would be an aid to the students of charac­terization of organic compounds. It is necessary for them to make an elementary analysis in order to determine the class into which the unknown compound belongs. A nitrogen test which will give definite results will eliminate any doubt as to the presence of nitrogen.

The Trivalent State Of Uranium, Virginia M. Kubacki Jan 1948

The Trivalent State Of Uranium, Virginia M. Kubacki

Bachelors’ Theses

Besides being of practical importance in the preparation of compounds, the valence of an element is of theoretical significance because it is a clue to the electronic structure of the atom. In the case of elements which have several valences the relative stability and the means of changing from one state of oxidation to another are also important.

Uranium has valences of three, four, five, and six, but the reactivity of the trivalent uranium ion causes difficulties in the preparation of its compounds. Dr. Scott L. Kittsley in his investigation of the trivalency of uranium found that it is possible …


The Effect Of Metallic Fluorides On Oleic Acid At Elevated Temperatures, Lorraine W. Dupuis Jan 1948

The Effect Of Metallic Fluorides On Oleic Acid At Elevated Temperatures, Lorraine W. Dupuis

Bachelors’ Theses

The problem of finding the effect of metallic fluorine compounds on oleic acid at elevated temperatures was presented in connection with the thesis of J.J. Wocasek of Marquette University. Doctor Wocasek had used fluorine compounds as catalysts in a.n attempt to find a sub­stitute for tung oil. He used the fluorides as catalysts in the esterification of glycerol with unsaturated acids.
