MOLAR MASS OF BUTANE
Molar Mass of Butane
Molar Mass of Butane
Introduction
Hydrogen gas (H2) is colorless, odorless and the most abundant element in the universe. Hydrogen combines with oxygen to make water which is essential to life. Combined with carbon, it makes up a large class of organic compounds called hydrocarbons (Roman, ...

Carbohydrates
Introduction
Carbohydrates are so-called because these molecules are made up of carbon atoms ("carbo") bonded to groups of oxygen and hydrogen atoms, called hydroxide groups ("hydrate"). Carbohydrates are a major energy source for living organisms. They also have a structural role. For example, the cell walls in plants and wood are ...

HAMLET
HAMLET
Introduction
HAMLET (human a -lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells) was first named after the coincidental discovery of the killing of tumor cells when human breast milk fractions were tested to have effects on bacterial attachment to alveolar type II lung carcinoma cells. A casein fraction obtained after low pH ...

Titanium Oxide Nanotubes
Nano Tubes
Nanotubes are structures of super molecular crystals, in the form of hollow cylinders. Today the best known are the nano tube carbons, whose walls are constructed of rolled graphene (monatomic layer of graphite). But there are also inorganic nano tubes and nano tubes formed from the DNA. ...
