Stuff/? problem

As the solution cools a big old mass of unreacted ammonium chloride will form. The chemist removes this by vacuum filtration and saves the crystals for reuse at another time. The golden colored filtrate is placed back in the flask and distilled (with vacuum now ) to reduce its volume by about a third. Temperature is not so much a problem now as the chemist will let the stuff distill over at whatever temperature is necessary. Sometimes the reducing solution is so concentrated that the remaining ammonium chloride crystals... 

The fundamental objective in this section is to describe the factors and procedures to select the right material for a specific structural application. The right stuff for a material, as for a fighter pilot or an astronaut, is a complex combination of characteristics. To select the proper material requires being able to characterize and evaluate various composite materials (or metalsl) and to compare their attractive characteristics with the behavioral features required for a particular structure. Finally, a materials selection example of a space truss design problem will be addressed. 

Most of the time I don t have to deal with MCS. My allergies are more of a problem at this point. I m allergic to dairy and other foods, and cats. I m allergic to many things. I have to think of that kind of stuff before I go to someone s house or spend the night with a friend. 

When I meet someone I have to tell them to please not wear any perfume or hair gel or anything like that around me. I have to tell them a whole bunch of stuff and they have to understand before we can be friends, because its really hard if someone doesn t understand and they wear hair spray or something, or they don t wait up for me. When I smell perfume it s hard for me to breathe and it feels like my throat is closing. It s hard, because a lot of people wear it. My mom talked to my teachers to make sure they don t wear perfume. It s mainly a problem at the beginning of the year when the teachers forget that kids are allergic to it. Lots of kids in my school have asthma. 

There are also material losses. MCS has a real impact on the material settings of your life. I think the reason that part has not been difficult for me is that we re not real materially oriented to begin with. We re not avid consumers. If I was the type of guy who got upset because I can t have a new car or a lot of furniture, or because we can t paint the walls every two years, then I would have problems. But I don t care about that stuff. That s not to say that we wouldn t have some different things than we have, given the choice. 

The amount of stuff to be handled leads to the two main problems in any large scale production of S3mthetic fuels, first the size and hence the cost of the equipment and second, the environmental problems associated with the mass flows. 

They [kids on medications] get made fun of. People call them retarded and stuff. They are a step down [socially]. They feel like, I am in trouble. Yeah, I am pretty sure a lot of kids don t want people to know they are on medication, especially nerdy kind of kids. If they are kind of nerds, that would add way more problems to their lives. [It would] make things more complicated. (Robert, freshman, aged 15)... 

Within already pithy summciries of chemical concepts, passages marked by this icon represent the pithiest must-know bits of information. You ll need to know this stuff to solve problems. 

I d just pick a topic — your favorite, if possible. Or, maybe you have a problem that needs to be solved tonight. Go for it Find the information you need and conquer your challenge. Then you can take the time to wander through the rest of the sections and chapters to find out what the other good stuff is. 

One of my favorite sayings is When you re knee deep in alligators, it s hard to remember that your mission is to drain the swamp. This certainly applies to math word problems and sorting out what the question is from all the other stuff. Consider the following problem. See if you can find the question in all the verbiage. 

You use division in problems when you want to break some total amount of stuff into equal shares. After setting up the division problem, though, the best course of action for solving the equation is usually to get rid of the division operation. Do this by multiplying each term in the equation by some common denominator then solve the simpler equation that s been created. 

I think it s the most tenacious stuff I ve taken, and I never could detect much let-up during the afternoon. Then, I don t think I got into good sleep until about 2 a.m. No problem after that. 

Applications of the Karl Fischer method are numerous food stuffs (butter, margarine, powdered milk, sugar, cheese, processed meats, etc.), solvents, paper, gas, petroleum, etc. Before the determination can be made, solid components that are not soluble must either be ground into powders, extracted with anhydrous solvents, eliminated as azeotropes or heated to eliminate water. Problems are encountered with very acidic or basic media that denature reactants and transform ketones and aldehydes into acetals that interfere with the titration. Special reagents must be used in these instances.
