A Petrographic And Chemical Study Of The Bevier Coal Seam, Philip John Clarke

Masters Theses

"Samples of coal were taken at three inch intervals vertically down the Bevier seam at three localities in Macon and Randolph Counties. Channel samples were collected at the three localities. All samples were analyzed for ash content, total sulphur content, crucible swelling number, and volatile content. The channel samples were analyzed for "pyritic" sulphur, “sulphate" sulphur, and "organic" sulphur. Thin sections of the samples were used in an estimation of anthraxylon and attritus contents.

In all the samples studied, volatile content of the coal seemed to be related to the ash content and the sulphur content. Crucible swelling number also …

Ultraviolet Absorption Spectra Of Quinoxaline And Some Of Its Derivatives, Fred Dale Huillet

Theses and Dissertations

A long term research program into the chemistry of quinoxalines has been instituted at Brigham Young University with the aim of preparing the vinylquinoxalines so that their 1,4-addition reactions might be studied. The literature of quinoxaline chemistry has been thoroughly reviewed and assembled. Methods of preparing 2-methyl- and 2,3-dimethylquinoxaline have been studied and improved but all attempts to prepare the vinylquinoxalines have been unsuccessful. In the course of these attempts several compounds of unknown structure were prepared. The purpose of this investigation is to study the spectra of various known quinoxaline derivatives and to attempt to identify the unknowns by …

Itaconic Acid Derivatives Of P-Amino Alkyl, Alkyl Sulfone, Wilbur B. Clarke

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This investigation is concerned with the preparation of 1(p-R2 Sulfonyl)-phenyl-5-oxo-3-pyrrolidine carboxylic acid by direct fusion of itaconic acid with the respective p-Amino phenyl alkyl or aryl sulfone, and is a continuation of work previously reported.

Wind Erosion Control—I, D J. Fleay

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3

Desserts have been formed in some parts of the world by the action of wind on once productive soils. This could happen to the light land areas of Western Australia if we do not profit by the lessons of the past and manage these soils with great care.

The Urea Adducts Of Certain Esters Containing Twenty Carbons, Donald Eugene Johnson

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Urea has the interesting and unexpected property of forming solid complexes with many straight-chained organic compounds. So selective is the formation of these complexes with linear aliphatic compounds that it provides a means of separation form the analogous branched and cyclic compounds. Linear esters derived from normal saturated and unsaturated esters give adducts also but not to the same extent. Although many linear aliphatic compounds form adducts, the compounds so formed have varying degrees of stability depending on molecular weight, saturation and the shape of the molecule.

The purpose of this investigation is to determine the effect of the position …

A Geomagnetic Survey Of Parts Of Pierce, Benson, Sheridan And Wells Counties, Harald C. Haraldson

Theses and Dissertations

A magnetometer survey in respect to oil exploration is a regional reconnaissance tool and, therefore, it is customary to check an interesting magnetic anomaly with a seismograph or gravimeter. An exception to this is found in micro magnetic surveys which, because of their detailed nature 28 nature, may serve as a cheek on the other types of geophysical surveying.

The two large magnetic highs may be more areas in the basement rocks, and they may indicate structure. However, the large eastward-trending magnetic high area on the west side of the map area is quite possibly due to a regional increase …

Coloring Matter In Camillia Japonica Flowers, Robert James Stoner

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The coloring matter in flowers has been used for centuries as a dye. Early man did not know the chemical nature of these coloring matters. Recent investigations have shown that the dark pigments whereas the lighter pigments of flowers are in the anthoxanthin group of pigments. Both of these groups of pigments have a heterocyclic structure. A large number of these pigments have been isolated and identified.

The object of this research was to isolate and identity the coloring matter in the Camillia japonica (Belgian red) flowers. This was done by extracting the pigment with methanol and then crystallizing the …

The Effect Of Cross-Linkage On Internal Diffusion In Dowex-50 Ion Exchange Resin, John Paul Peterson Jr.

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

As far back as the time of Aristotle sand filters were used to purify water. However it was not until the time of Thompson and Way (1848), two English agricultural chemists, that the idea of actual exchange of ions was proposed. Ion exchange has been investigated extensively, resulting in applications to softening of water, purification of sugar, separation of compounds, recovery of metals, many pharmaceutical separations and many others.

It has been proposed that the internal diffusion should be related to the internal structure of the ion exchange resin. The object of this research was to measure the internal diffusion …

Thiocyanate Complexes Of Osmium, Craig Albert Townsend Jr.

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Osmium is a hard grey brittle metal which scratches glass. It has a melting point of 2700[degree]C, and a specific gravity of 22.4, which is greater than any other known substance. The grey color of osmium resembles the grey color of iron and ruthenium. Osmium was discovered in 1803 by Tennant in the insoluble residue remaining after treating an alloy of the platinum metals with acid.

Osmium occurs in nature alloyed with the other metals of the platinum group. One type of alloy includes all six of the of the platinum metals, osmium, iridium, platinum, ruthernium, rhodium and palladium. Osmium …

A Study Of Immiscibility In The Carbonates From The Metamorphic Rocks Of Southeastern Vermont, Ralph D. Cotter

Masters Theses

"This problem is an attempt to correlate grade of metamorphism (normally assumed to be temperature dependent) with the shape and dimensions of a solid miscibility gap. Such a correlation might permit mapping of a continuously variable function of metamorphism. The system, calcite and dolomite-ankerite, was chosen for study because of its relative simplicity. Samples of quartz-carbonate granulite were collected from the Waits River formation in southeastern Vermont through a range of metamorphic grades. Refractive index, "molecular" volume, manganese content, and density were determined for the carbonates of four of these samples. These values are plotted on a compositional diagram to …

A Study Of The Kinetics And The Free Radicals Involved In The Low-Pressure, Vapor-Phase Pyrolysis Of Toluene, Robert E. Williams

Chemistry and Chemical Biology ETDs

The separation of lanthanum, yttrium, and the rare earth elements from their ores has been a challenge to the chemist for many years. The similarities in chemical properties has made their separation a problem of extraordinary difficulty. Fractional crystallization has been the classical method utilized in the past, although individual elements have been isolated by oxidization or reduction to other than the tripositive oxidation state (1). Recently ion exchange and solvent extraction methods have become more important as a means of separation of these elements. Both of these techniques depend upon fractional differences in the distribution of compounds or ions …

A Theoretical Formulation Of The Hammett Equation, Gordon A. Gallup, W.R. Gilkerson, M.M. Jones

Gordon Gallup Publications

A relation, which reduces to the form of Hammett's equation, has been derived. Reactions which can be assumed to be of the form ion-dipole or dipole-dipole have been considered. The logarithms of the ratios of rate constants were calculated and compared with experimental values in the form of Hammett's equation constants.
