Introduction

The kinetic characteristics are important for the design of chemical engineering processes. They allow assessing the time required for the reaction and choosing the temperature range suitable for the reaction. The reaction path is observed by measurments the transmittance of the Crystal Violet solution that reacts with sodium hydroxide. The concentration, and the color of the solution changes with the reaction flow, and this is measured by the spectrophotometer.

The data are plotted as concentration - time and logarithm concentration time, and the reaction rate is:

Rate = [Crystal Violet] [Sodium Hydroxide]. Using the excess concentration of one of the reagents, the reaction rate with respect to the other reagent is found from logarithmic plot (Rahul & Chakrabarti ...

Ficus carica L, popularly known as the fig, is a tree that has been known to the world for centuries. Its roots are traced to the Western Asia but it has spread throughout various parts of the globe including Europe and the Americas. The fruit of the fig, or more accurately its flowers, are eaten fresh, dried, or pickled. It has served as a delicious treat to both the elite and the masses. In the succeeding sections, the spread of the fig is discussed focusing on its origin, cultivation, and current market.

Primates

The primates are perhaps the most instinctively surviving mammals on the planet Earth. Human beings are primates and the list of primates goes way back in time when, Homo sapiens like us, include familiar animals like chimpanzees, gorillas, and monkeys, in addition to a few lesser known lemurs like lorises, and galagos. Two primates from different suborders could be the Prosimii or the prosimians, as they are commonly referred to, and the Anthropoidea, to which we as humans belong. Ring-tailed and ruffed lemurs, found in Madagascar are prosimians, while orangutans, apes, and humans belong to the anthropoidea group and are ...
