Water light from

Absolute diethyl ether. The chief impurities in commercial ether (sp. gr. 0- 720) are water, ethyl alcohol, and, in samples which have been exposed to the air and light for some time, ethyl peroxide. The presence of peroxides may be detected either by the liberation of iodine (brown colouration or blue colouration with starch solution) when a small sample is shaken with an equal volume of 2 per cent, potassium iodide solution and a few drops of dilute hydrochloric acid, or by carrying out the perchromio acid test of inorganic analysis with potassium dichromate solution acidified with dilute sulphuric acid. The peroxides may be removed by shaking with a concentrated solution of a ferrous salt, say, 6-10 g. of ferrous salt (s 10-20 ml. of the prepared concentrated solution) to 1 litre of ether. The concentrated solution of ferrous salt is prepared either from 60 g. of crystallised ferrous sulphate, 6 ml. of concentrated sulphuric acid and 110 ml. of water or from 100 g. of crystallised ferrous chloride, 42 ml. of concentrated hydiochloric acid and 85 ml. of water. Peroxides may also be removed by shaking with an aqueous solution of sodium sulphite (for the removal with stannous chloride, see Section VI,12). 

Dissolve 2 5 g. of hydroxylamine hydrochloride and 4 g. of crystallised sodium acetate in 10 ml. of water in a small flask or in a test-tube. Warm the solution to about 40° and add 2 5 g. of cyclohexanone. Stopper the vessel securely with a cork and shake vigorously for a few minutes the oxime soon separates as a crystalline solid. Cool in ice, filter the crystals at the pump, and wash with a little cold water. RecrystaUise from light petroleum, b.p. 60-80°, and dry the crystals upon filter paper in the air. The yield of pure cycZohexanone oxime, m.p. 90°, is 2 -5 g. 

Dissolve 0 -5 g. of the phenol in 4-5 ml. of dry p ridine, add 1 - 3 g. of 3 5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride and reflux for 25-30 minutes. Pour the cold reaction mixture into 40 ml. of ca. 2N hydrochloric acid. Decant the supernatant aqueous hquid from the precipitated sohd or oil and stir it vigorously with about 10 ml. of N sodium carbonate solution. Filter off the sohd derivative and wash it with water. RecrystaUise from alcohol, dilute alcohol, benzene - acetone or benzene - light petroleum (b.p. 60-80 ),... 

White Phosphorus Oxidation. Emission of green light from the oxidation of elemental white phosphoms in moist air is one of the oldest recorded examples of chemiluminescence. Although the chemiluminescence is normally observed from sotid phosphoms, the reaction actually occurs primarily just above the surface with gas-phase phosphoms vapor. The reaction mechanism is not known, but careful spectral analyses of the reaction with water and deuterium oxide vapors indicate that the primary emitting species in the visible spectmm are excited states of (PO)2 and HPO or DPO. Ultraviolet emission from excited PO is also detected (196). 

The source of nitrogen is always air. However, hydrogen can be derived from a variety of raw materials including water, light and heavy hydrocarbons (qv) resulting from cmde oil refining, coal (qv), natural gas, and sometimes a combination of these raw materials. In all cases, part of the hydrogen produced is derived from water. 

A rainbow, usually seen when the sun comes out after a rainfall, is the result of the dispersion of visible light (from the sun) into its component colors. The water t droplets act as prisms. ... 

The deep ocean (6) is the portion of the water column from 300 m to 3300 m and is the largest ocean reservoir of dissolved P. However, since the deep ocean is devoid of light, this P is not significantly incorporated into ocean biota. Mostly, it is stored in the deep waters until it is eventually transported back into the photic zone via upwelling or eddy diffusive mixing. 

Louis Pasteur (3) described in 1864 the spectrum of the light from the tropical luminous beetle Pyrophorous as continuous, without dark or light bands. In 1885, Raphael Dubois (3) obtained a cold water extract and a hot water extract from Pyrophorous which, when mixed together, reacted to produce li t. Dubois named the... 

Because of the role these algae play in the oceans biological productivity and their impacts on climate due to the removal of carbon dioxide, satellite sensors have been employed to measure the chlorophyll a contents in oceans, lakes, and seas to indicate the distribution and abundance of biomass production in these water bodies. Detection is set at the specific reflectance and absorption wavelengths of the light from the upper layer of the ocean where photosynthesis occurs.

Creams are semisolid emulsion systems having a creamy appearance as the result of reflection of light from their emulsified phases. This contrasts them with simple ointments, which are translucent. Little agreement exists among professionals as to what constitutes a cream, and thus the term has been applied both to absorption bases containing emulsified water (w/o emulsions) and to semisolid o/w systems, which are physicochemically totally different, strictly because of their similar creamy appearances. Logically, classification of these systems should be based on their physical natures, in which case absorption bases would be ointments and the term cream could be reserved exclusively for semisolid o/w systems, which in all instances derive their structures from their emulsifiers and internal phases. 

Films of purified PVCa were cast from methylene chloride solution on quartz plates. The solvent was allowed to slowly evaporate to give smooth, clear films with a thickness of ca. 5.0 nm. Contact angle measurements using water droplets were measured with a standard contact angle goniometer. Samples were photo-lysed in air with polychromatic light from a 150 watt xenon arc. Contact angles were measured after various times of irradiation to monitor the formation of oxidation products at the surface of the polymer films. 

Korsunovsky (65-68), Gross weiner (77), Stephens and co-workers (69) and also Markham and Laidler (70) point out that the catalytic activity of semiconductor catalysts in relation to the reaction of oxidation of water under illumination with light from the fundamental absorption band first increases with increasing radiation dose and then attains saturation at sufficiently high doses.
