The Determination Of Of Bromo Acid, Genevieve M. Stein

Bachelors’ Theses

The use of bromo acids in lipstick is comparatively recent. Since its use is so necessary to the modern lipstick in order to impart indelibility and staining power, the fact that bromo acid arouses a toxicity in the presence of castor oil in some individuals does not keep it from being one of the most important constituents of the stick. However, in order to keep the toxicity down to a minimum it is necessary to keep the type end amount of bromo acid under control. It is, therefore, highly important that a check on the amount of bromo acid be …

A Study Of The Reactions Of Anhydrous Hydrogen Fluoride On Organic Compounds, Daale Jones

Bachelors’ Theses

There are many uses for anhydrous hydrogen fluoride in the field of organic synthesis. The addition of hydrogen fluoride to a double bond is readily carried out at room temperature and provides a good starting point for mastering the special technique. It is widely used as one of our best · polymerizing agents. It has many uses as a catalyst in alkylation, acylation, Fries change and ring closure reactions. Due to its extreme reactivity a complete understanding of the material is necessary in order to handle it properly. The matter of technique in manipulation and carrying out reactions was one …

The Nitric Acid Oxidation Of 12-Hydroxystearic Acid, Henry K. Suzuki

Bachelors’ Theses

Although much work has been done on the oxidation of saturated fatty acids in the past, relatively little research on hydroxylated acids has been conducted.

This paper is a study of the oxidation of mono and poly hydroxy-fatty acids and was undertaken on the basis of Reid and Hall's report on the nitric acid oxidation of 12-hydroxystearic acid.

Tertiary Coniferous Woods Of Western North America, George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

Almost four decades have elapsed since Platen (1908), the German paleobotanist, published his report upon the fossil woods of the western United States. Since then no over-all treatment of these materials has been attempted. although Platen overlooked the Pacific Northwest with its abundance of Tertiary petrified woods. The purpose of this paper is to bring knowledge of the western coniferous woods of the Tertiary up to date. In this effort the writer recognizes that much of this information has been accumulated incidentally in the study of the Russell Petrified Forest series of central Washington, and that it is not as …

Physical And Chemical Properties Of Soil Profiles Of The Burchard And Steinauer Series, Henry W. Smith, H. F. Rhoades

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

The purpose of this bulletin is to report an investigation of the soils mapped as types of the Burchard and Steinauer series. Burchard soils are described as nearly mature Prairie soils, and Steinauer soils as Lithosols, by the Division of Soil Survey. The C horizons of soils of both series consist of calcareous glacial drift. A part of the conclusions drawn from the investigation of these soils is based upon observations made in the field in southeastern Nebraska, the remainder upon laboratory data for samples taken by horizons from nine profiles.

Permability And Porosity Of Devonian Dolomites In Northwestern Montana, Jack W. Nordquist

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this investigation is to record data per­taining to porosity and permeability derived from physical tests performed on Devonian dolomites occurring in northwestern Montana, and to subsequently summarize the results obtained as an aid in determining the possibility of those dolomites being suitable reservoir rocks for oil and gas accumulation.

Vermiculite, Occurence, Character, And Concentration Of Mineral From The Pony District, Madison County, Montana, A. Saterdal

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the occurrence and character of the vermiculite deposits approximately four miles northwest of Pony; Madison County, Montana. The deposits are situated in rolling foothills at the northern end of the Tobacco Root Mountains.

The Preparation Of 2-Fluoroarsanilic Acid And An Attempt To Prepare 4-Fluorophenylarsonic Acid, Robert E. Shupe

Bachelors’ Theses

In the preparation of a fluorinated organic arsenical compound the writer has entered upon what may be untrodden ground. The difficulties were numerous and the press of time has made impossible for the present many of the investigations and modifications of method which would otherwise have been carried out

Malonic Acid Synthesis, Mary K. Hormuth

Bachelors’ Theses

The search for new organic compounds, the discovery of their proper­ ties and the utilization of them, both in the industrial and the biological field has always been the challenge to the organic and research chemist. In particular, the study of fatty acids and their related compounds has been the particular problem to not only the physiological chemist, but also the industrial chemist. The research in this direction has tremen­dous possibilities tor only the even carbon and normal chain acids have been isolated in nature. Here difficulty is often met when trying to establish and identify this type of acid …

Range Land Of America And Some Research On Its Management, Laurence A. Stoddart

Faculty Honor Lectures

Although grazing of livestock has been a practice and a profession of man almost from his beginning only recently has range management reached anything approaching a pre~ cise science. Although ' trials and errors over the years brought to light much practical methodology for assuring high production from grazing land, still it remained for the plant physiologist and ecologist to find the whys and wherefores, and to advance new methods and new thoughts which promise to increase productivity still further and at the same time maintain the great range resource.

Progress Report On The Ground-Water Resources Of The Las Vegas Artesian Basin, Nevada, George B. Maxey, C. Harry Jameson

Publications (WR)

Whether the tremendously increased population acquired by Las Vegas in the years 1940 to 1942 will be retained cannot at present be foretold. However, the valley will undoubtedly be expected to support a considerably larger population than it did at any time prior to 1940, and continually increasing demands on the water supply for innumerable pcacetimc activities must be anticipated. Therefore, a sound evaluation of tho ground water resources of Las Vegas Valley is directly in line with the other wisely progressive planning programs which are now operating or are taking shape in the valley as well as in the …

Dielectric Properties Of Various Organic Compounds, Joyce Elaine Eiling

Bachelors’ Theses

Condensers are widely used for many purposes. These devices are employed in one form or another in radio transmitting and allied industries such as television and amplifier circuits. They are used in automatic equipment, telephone, telegraph, and railway signal equipment as well as in condenser type motors. Condensers reduce sparking and arcing at contact relay points, switches, circuit breakers, time clocks, and thermostats. A vital part of a condenser is the dielectric. In present day condensers mineral oil is used extensively.

The purpose of this investigation is to study other organic compounds in an effort to find a good di …

The Influence Of Heat On Some Properties Of Triethanolamine Soaps, Hetty Ricker

Bachelors’ Theses

In modern times the field of chemistry has a broad scope and even a broader horizon. Yet for a girl the field is limited. One of the few industries in which she is capable and has a slight advantage is that of the cosmetic industry. In this field chemistry is used in the manufacture of lipsticks, shampoos, oils and creams. Research to improve these items is continually going on with a hope of finding cheaper and better products than those compounds already in use.

Nyssa Woods Of The Pacific-Northwest Tertiary, George F. Beck

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences

The nyssa gums are one of the modern genera of trees most certainly present among the petrified woods and forests of the Pacific Northwest. Almost every collection from the mid-Tertiary of this region contains a few specimens of typical tupelo or sour gum. These are fine-grained woods which to the unaided eye may be mistaken for conifers.
