Figrue BE 16.20 shows spectra of DQ m a solution of TXlOO, a neutral surfactant, as a function of delay time. The spectra are qualitatively similar to those obtained in ethanol solution. At early delay times, the polarization is largely TM while RPM increases at later delay times. The early TM indicates that the reaction involves ZnTPPS triplets while the A/E RPM at later delay times is produced by triplet excited-state electron transfer. Calculation of relaxation times from spectral data indicates that in this case the ZnTPPS porphyrin molecules are in the micelle, although some may also be in the hydrophobic mantle of the micelle. Furtlier,... 

K) were investigated. From an equation of state for iron the densities at these temperatures could be predicted to enable the simulations to be performed. A periodic system containing 64 atoms was used and the simulation run for 2 ps after equilibration. The calculated pressure agreed within 10% with the experimental values (330 GPa at the inner core boundary and 135GPa at the core-mantle boundary). Additional parameters could also be calculated, including the viscosity, the values for which were at the low end of previous suggestions. 

If crystallisation commences as soon as the solvent cools or if large quantities of hot solution are to be filtered, the funnel (and fluted filter paper) should be warmed externally during the filtration (hot water funnel). Three types of hot water funnel are illustrated in Fig. 11,1, 6 no flames should be present whilst inflammable solvents are being filtered through the funnel of Fig. 11, 1, 6, a. Alternatively, the funnel may be surrounded by an electric heating mantle (see Section 11,57) the heat input may be controlled by a variable transformer. When dealing with considerable volumes of aqueous or other solutions which do not deposit crystals rapidly on cooling, a Buchner funnel may be used for filtration (see detailed account in Section 11,1 and Fig. 11 1, 7, c). The filter paper... 

For solids which melt above 100° and are stable at this temperature, drying may be carried out in a steam oven. The crystals from the Buchner funnel should then be placed on a clock glass or in an open dish. The substance may sometimes be dried in the Buchner funnel itself by utilising the device illustrated in Fig. 77, <33, 1. An ordinary Pyrex funnel is inverted over the Buchner funnel and the neck of the funnel heated by means of a broad flame (alternatively, the funnel may be heated by a closely-fltting electric heating mantle) if gentle suction is applied to the Alter flask, hot (or warm) air will pass over the crystalline solid. 

Push one end of a length of 20 cm. of stout copper wire into a cork (this wUl serve as a holder) at the other end make two or three turns about a thin glass rod. Heat the coil in the outer mantle of a Bunsen dame until it ceases to impart any colour to the dame. Allow the wire to cool somewhat and, while still warm, dip the coil into a small portion of the substance to be tested and heat again in the non-luminous dame. If the compound contains a halogen element, a green or bluish-green dame will be observed (usually after the initial smoky dame has disappeared). Before using the wire for another compound, heat it until the material from the previous test has been destroyed and the dame is not coloured. 

Cerium is a component of misch metal, which is extensively used in the manufacture of pyrophoric alloys for cigarette lighters. While cerium is not radioactive, the impure commercial grade may contain traces of thorium, which is radioactive. The oxide is an important constituent of incandescent gas mantles and is emerging as a hydrocarbon catalyst in self cleaning ovens. In this application it can be incorporated into oven walls to prevent the collection of cooking residues. 

Place 3 3oz packets of Mildewcide into a 1L flask with an electric heating mantle and cork in the neck connected to a gas bubbler immersed in at least 550mL of distilled water. Heat the paraformaldehyde (what is in the Mildewcide) to between 180-200C (a temp, regulator is absolutely necessary for this step or use a silicone oil bath). The paraformaldehyde will depolymerize making formaldehyde gas in about 91% yield. Alternatively, the gas can be bubbled through the Ammonia solution directly (only for the brave ). If the Formaldehyde solution will not be used immedi-...

Stony Irons. The stony iron meteorites are composed of substantial iron and siUcate components. The paHasites contain cm-sized ohvine crystals embedded ia a soHd FeNi metal matrix and have properties consistent with formation at the core mantle boundary of differentiated asteroids. The mesosiderites are composed of metal and siUcates that were fractured and remixed, presumably ia the near-surface regions of their parent bodies.
