Here’s how you can streamline your data processing and exporting in Shimadzu LabSolutions Version 5.71 SP1: 1. Removing Unwanted Peaks in Bulk ✅ Set a Global Data Processing Method Instead of manually removing peaks each time, create a processing method that defines peak integration parameters: Go to "Data Analysis" → "Processing Method" → "Integration Settings." Set retention time limits to exclude peaks below 4.5 minutes. Save the processing method and apply it to all 40 data files in one go using the "Batch Reprocessing" feature. ✅ Use "Batch Processing" to Apply the Method: Open "Batch Processing" in LabSolutions. Load all 40 files. Apply the processing method to all at once, which will automatically remove unwanted peaks based on your set criteria. --- 2. Bulk Export of Data ✅ Export All Data Files at Once (ASCII/CSV): In LabSolutions: Go to "Batch Processing." After reprocessing, select "Export All" under the "File" menu. Select output format as ASCII or CSV. All files will be exported simultaneously. ✅ Automate Export to Excel: If you want to automate data handling in Excel: Export to CSV format. Use Excel's Power Query to load all CSV files into one workbook for easy processing. --- 3. Bulk Export of Chromatograms ✅ Export All Chromatograms as PDF/Images: In LabSolutions: Go to "Batch Processing" Select all files Export chromatograms as PDF or image files in one go using the "Export" function. You can choose the output folder and format (PNG, JPEG, or PDF).

Another notable tool is IBM Watson for Chemistry, which helps researchers analyze vast datasets and extract meaningful insights. Additionally, tools like DeepChem provide open-source resources for deep learning applications in chemistry. These AI tools enhance efficiency, accelerate research timelines, and facilitate innovative discoveries in the field.

The concept of the Biosphere is very important when developing in-situ biosystems, and even for ex-situ systems. A lot of my career has been in bioremediation and I've extended that into laboratory research on other biotransformations. There is a great deal more to learn.

Foe my research as a professor at a small college, I was asking the same question, but I assumed the same answer as Abdelhak Maghchiche. If I look at my files I probably have a reference for it.

There are compelling arguments supporting each approach; however, the final decision hinges on the objectives of the educational framework. Should the primary goal be to establish a comprehensive foundation and streamline evaluation, it would be logical to consolidate the grades under 'Physical Sciences.' Conversely, if the intention is to deliver precise, subject-specific evaluations and adhere to international benchmarks, distinguishing the grades for Physics and Chemistry would prove more advantageous.

A middle-ground strategy, such as providing detailed academic records or allowing for optional separation of grades, may serve as an effective compromise to accommodate both viewpoints.

Thank you for sharing this opportunity.

I think you should take each compound separately and measure it, then mix them together to notice the reaction time. You can also reduce or increase the sample flow time to get a good result.

Aluminum oxide is predominantly an insulator. Its electrical conductivity is quite low, primarily because it is an ionic compound with a wide band gap of about 8.8 eV. At ambient temperatures, its conductivity is negligible. However, when subjected to high temperatures, the ionic mobility increases slightly, which can enhance its conductivity. This effect is typically due to the increased vibration of lattice ions that can slightly be displaced from their positions, creating vacancies and allowing for minimal charge transport.

TiO₂ is a semiconductor with a band gap of approximately 3.2 eV for its rutile phase and 3.0 eV for the anatase phase, making it inactive for visible light without modification. Its conductivity increases with temperature due to increased carrier generation; thermal energy excites more electrons from the valence to the conduction band. Additionally, defects within the TiO₂ structure, such as oxygen vacancies, can act as charge carriers, enhancing conductivity as the temperature rises.

MoS₂ is a layered semiconductor with a band gap of about 1.2 eV to 1.8 eV depending on the number of layers (bulk to monolayer). It exhibits a transition from indirect to direct band gap as it moves to monolayer thickness. MoS₂’s conductivity is also temperature-dependent, where increasing temperatures increase intrinsic carrier concentration. At elevated temperatures, phonon scattering increases, which generally increases the mobility of charge carriers.

Summary For all three materials, the conductivity at different temperatures can be explained through their intrinsic electronic structure and how temperature influences phenomena such as carrier mobility, carrier concentration, and defect dynamics. These materials respond differently to temperature changes based on their crystal and electronic structures. As temperature increases:

- Al₂O₃ shows a minimal increase in conductivity due to ionic displacement.

- TiO₂ experiences enhanced conductivity primarily through increased electron-hole pair generation and defect-mediated transport.

- MoS₂ sees an enhancement in conductivity, particularly due to increased intrinsic carrier concentration and changes in electron mobility.

Gold and platinum (and other metals such as Pd) salts are easily reduced to the (colloidal) metal. Absorb solutions of such metals onto a porous plastic and they'll decompose within a day.

BTW, HAuCl₄ is not found as such - it's a hygroscopic water-containing structure usually formulated as HAuCl₄.xH₂O.

Similarly, in aqueous solution we have PtCl₄·5(H₂O) - the pentahydrate.

Dear college,

In the determination of platinum group of elements in Pt catalyst samples can be used different decomposition procedures.

Please, pay attention, that the analytical evaluation function is assumed to be straight line through the origin. There are is not spectral interferences. But the correct calibration from the point of view of multiplicative interferences means a precise matching of the acid in both the reference and sample solutions.

I recommend the decomposition procedure in the determination of platinum group of elements in Pt catalyst samples because the platinum group of elements must be dissolved in aqua regia, but in the end of the dissolution procedure, the final sample solution contains Pt, Pd and Rh in hydrochloric acid only in an appropriate acidity, because the undissolved material (γ-alumina+silicates) has settled down. Under these conditions you must prepared the calibration solutions for Pt, Pd and Rh with hydrochloric acid in an appropriate acidity.

With kind regards, N. Daskalova

You can predict reactions between inorganic compounds using tools like ChemReaX, AiZynthFinder, and Ansys Chemkin-Pro, which simulate and model chemical reactions. These software options allow you to explore potential reaction pathways based on your specific compounds.

Yes, you can use mercury (II) nitrate instead of mercuric chloride for bioremediation experiments, but it's essential to conduct preliminary studies to assess bacterial responses and effectiveness, as the behavior of different mercury compounds can vary significantly.

I have the same problem with older paper, and I foun this:

From the D-R model, u can consider physical adsorption or chemisorption; when E<8 kj/mol is physisorption, 8 kj/mol<E<16 kj/mol is chemisorption. and also you can find these references will help you

Preparing a 4M HCl solution in dioxane is not recommended in a standard chemistry lab due to significant safety risks. Both HCl and dioxane are hazardous, and their mixture can form explosive peroxides. Safer alternatives should be considered, such as using commercially available solutions or aqueous HCl, and the procedure should only be attempted in specialized facilities with proper safety equipment and trained personnel.

Chemistry is essential for understanding and controlling chemical reactions, crucial in research and problem-solving across various fields. Even alternative methods often rely on chemical principles for effectiveness.

I think, Langmuir adsorption model can describe both physical and chemical adsorption.

The exact meaning of adsorption sites can differ in this cases (for chemisorption, it can be physical number of atoms/molecules of specific chemical species, whereas for physisoprtion the number of sites can just reflect the maximal number of adsorbate atoms/molecules that can "fill" the surface due to their finite lateral "size").

The binding energy is also substantially different that may give a trivial asymptotic limit in the model for chemical or physical adsorption.

Let's make some estimations. As it is often mentioned, the binding energy for physisorption is usually 10⁻²–10⁻¹ eV, whereas it is usually 10⁻¹–10⁰ eV for chemisorption. In the Langmuir adsorption model, the fractional occupancy θ depends on the temperature T, chemical potential μ and binding energy ε as

θ = [1 + exp(−(μ+ε)/kT)]⁻¹,

and 1/kT ≃ 40 eV⁻¹ for T ≃ 300 K, μ/kT ~ –16 (estimation for an ideal gas at 1 atm pressure). So, the difference in the value of ε in 1–2 decimal orders can correspond even to opposite asymptotic limits in the fractional occupancy vs the bulk concentration dependence θ(n) — a constant 'high concentration' limit θ ≃ 1 of for a high binding energy and a linear 'low concentration' asymptotic limit θ ∝ n for a low binding energy.

For the estimations I presented, only moderate binding energies ε ~ 10⁻¹ eV per site can give the fractional occupancy values somewhere between the asymptotic limits of θ(n). This case may correspond to quite a weak chemical bond or a strong physical attraction.

Pablo Mtz Teck-Ghee Lee Thank you sir for your valuable efforts.

Lol, yeah I get you meant specifics. I would be curious to see if DFT could tease out what's going on.

Reference for the chemistry?

If spectral subtraction may introduce artifacts in your ATR-FTIR analysis, consider using advanced deconvolution techniques to resolve overlapping peaks without removing the water peak. Additionally, employing baseline correction, temperature control, or alternative solvents can further enhance the clarity of your spectra.

It is not easy to define the controls of your reaction. Don't think you can use a simple control or two to define your experiments. Breifly, you should consider the controls of mass, volume, particle size distribution (PSD), surface property (not all inclusive) of catalyst and reactant, as well as their ratios to define your reactions.

Syringe wash is not the only approach to clean Your system. If You inject "dirty" samples the whole injector (including tubing) might get dirty. A solvent injection between the samples should will help in most cases....... If there are ghost peaks it might help to prolong the GC program.

Apparently, the inclusion of Remdesivir in mesoporous nanoparticles, as such or at the stage of their synthesis. is not good idea, due to the instability of R and, possibly, its low bioavailability. Microencapsulation by complex coacervation, with possible involving CD, may be more frutful approach. Good luck!

Thank you so much Professor Mirgorod. And thanks for introduce rutine to me.

Jürgen Weippert Partly. I think some teachers are governed by the voices above them like principals or someone more powerful like the stakeholders who refused to spend money in buying lab equipments, hence teachers themselves has no say at the end of the day....

Charcoal filtration, perhaps.

One of the most important parameters in any mechanochemical reaction (ball milling) is the ball to powder ration (BPR). What I personally do and I find to give consistent results is keeping the powder volume constant (which means if I have to change the ration of 2 or 3 components I readjust it in order to keep the same BPR).

In case the amount of your catalyst is negligible compared to the total volume (mass) of the powder you can ignore it.

That's a great question and definitely a valid concern of protecting IP!

Here's how data is handled:

- The manuscript is sent to our backend and deleted from our database within 72 hours of generating your report.

- In creating the review the only external service used is the OpenAI API, and they've explicitly stated "data sent to the OpenAI API will not be used to train or improve OpenAI models" [reference here](https://platform.openai.com/docs/models/how-we-use-your-data#:~:text=As%20of%20March%201%2C%202023%2C%20data%20sent%20to%20the%20OpenAI%20API%20will%20not%20be%20used%20to%20train%20or%20improve%20OpenAI%20models)

It won't save the data longer than it needs to and will never be used to train a model.

The main difference is that while absorption involves the mass transfer of particles into another material (one substance absorbing another), adsorption takes place with the adhesion of particles onto the surface of a substance. absorption is the process in which a fluid dissolves by a liquid or a solid. In the case of Adsorption, the atoms, ions, or molecules from a substance adhere to a surface of the adsorbent

KBr is 100% ionized and in aqueous solution the counter ion is anything that is a cation (positively charged) that is floating around. If your buffer contains K⁺ as the most common cation,then [Br^-] = [KBr].

To proof that a small molecule is covalently bound to a polymer is very challenging. I was in similar situation when I tried to bind polyphenols covalently to chitosan. Generally, the polyphenols in your washing solution were either non-covalently bound or the covalent bond was cleaved during washing. The unremoved polyphenols are not necessarily bound covalently, as non-covalent interactions can still be too strong.

You could try to depolymerise your protein (e.g. by enzymatic hydrolysis) and then analyse the fragments (e.g. by LC-MS). If you find a fragment with the polyphenol bound covalently, you have a proof.

I have the same in lab cool from Mettler Toledo, can’t quite figure out how to measure frozen buffer pH down to -30C. Any pointers? Much appreciated

It is quite common to present talks or posters on the basis of previously published papers. However, care must be taken when contributing to the proceedings of the conference so as not to infringe the copyright of the journal's publisher.

Being a proficient researcher doesn't necessarily equate to being a better professor. While research expertise can enhance teaching by bringing current knowledge and real-world applications into the classroom, effective teaching requires distinct skills such as communication, empathy, and the ability to engage students.

A good professor balances both research and teaching responsibilities, tailoring their approach to meet the needs of their students while contributing to their field through research. However, being a successful researcher doesn't guarantee effective teaching, as teaching requires its own set of abilities and dedication.

I'm not sure, but I think you did a great job of answering your own question... 'Charting the afterlife?" Answer; Why?' Somethings can't be known. Or, even if we were explained, would we have a hope of understanding the answer? Every morning on the way to work I ask the Universe for a special watch over some friends and family (including my most recent 'best friend' Chihuahua) who have 'recently' passed. I know that they are soaring the Universe as Light Beings and I am a bit jealous of all they will see and re-understand. But charting the afterlife... it's like charting the Universe itself accurately. THEY could do it, but we can't even imagine what it looks like in totality. MY opinion, of course.

There is no easy answer to this question, and actually I do not think that self-learning can lead you very far. This having been said, self-learning the application of DFT to chemical problems requires facing two different types of knowledge, one on theoretical chemistry, and one on the implementation of the theory in a computational software suite.

So, first I would go to books & manuals. For a start, the books from Jensen and Cramer might be very useful. As for the second problem, studying the manuals is mandatory. Many software suite, for example Gaussian, have very complete official on-line resources. Only after a deep study you might start using the software. A help on practical issues can came from any of the many fora on computational chemistry, including RG and the Telegram group on computational and quantum chemistry.

Mixing solutions with inorganic salts and EDTA is sufficient to form a sol. When the solvent is removed in air, a gel will form. Even visually monitor the viscosity. When the solvent is removed, a xerogel is completely formed. Calcination of the xerogel will give BiFeO3.

The stages have been described correctly, but there is no need to separate them.

Oxygen balance is often calculated to CO rather than CO2, maybe a part of the problem originates from this. Usually we use the following formula for CHNOFClS compounds

OxBal=16*(nO+nF/2+nCl/2-(2*nC+0.5*nH+2*nS))/MW*100

Note, however, that the oxygen balance cannot be used as a measure of explosibility or energetic potential, it is much more complicated. For benchmarked emripical equations for energetic potential see our paper

we also suggested a rough estimation for the mechanical sensitivity of compound here

Dear Abel,

Thank you for your interest. Could you please share with me your mail adressess.

Dear China, Chemistry is indeed a very broad discipline. When deciding on a Ph.D. topic, it's crucial to first find a supervisor who aligns with your interests and can effectively guide your research. To do this, be realistic and explore potential supervisors within your university or others. Research their areas of expertise to see if they match your interests. Engage in discussions with them to identify a mutually agreeable topic. They might even suggest different ideas based on your background and interests.

Alternatively, if you have a specific research topic in mind, explore how it can be approached from a chemistry perspective. Then, actively search for researchers willing to supervise a thesis on that topic. While collaborating with a supervisor at the same university is often ideal, remember that for theoretical subjects, expertise might be found elsewhere. Consider the feasibility of remote collaboration if necessary. I whish you all the best with your future career.

PPNCl is an extremely lipophilic and relatively stable salt with a huge, greasy cation, which could be written in condensed form as [Ph3P=N=PPh3]+[Cl]-. Paired with huge anions it forms crystals useful for single-crystal x-ray spectroscopy. Added to a solution in a polar, protic solven, containing anions of many sizes, it tends to precipitate the large ones and if there is an equilibrium mixture of anions (like a mixture of polyoxometalates like Keggin anions of different sizes), by LeChatelier's Principle, the equilibrium will shift to the large anion that precipitates in the presence of this large cation. The complementary scheme is also possible; instead of precipitating PPN(+) salts from polar, protic solvents like alcohol or aqueous mixtures, you can use the greasiness (lipophilicity) of PPN(+) to help dissolve anions in less polar, aprotic media like ethers (diethyl ether, THF, dioxane) in which the anion (like an anionic transition-metal complex) is insoluble in the form of a sodium salt or a potassium salt. When used as an aid to a catalyst I would think of it as a chaotrope (a substance that doesn't self-assemble into clusters like micelles made from detergents, but rather just helps increase the contact of non-polar molecules with polar ones).

Here is a 2010 crystallography paper with useful references: .

The use of PPN+ goes back to the 1970's at least so many book chapters could be written about it. But this should get you started.

Hello,

Determining the endpoint of a titration between sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) with accuracy is critical for obtaining precise results. Sodium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid in a two-step neutralization reaction, and identifying the endpoint requires careful consideration of the reaction mechanism and the appropriate indicators. Here are the steps and considerations to ensure accuracy:

In conclusion, ensuring accuracy in the titration of Na2CO3 and HCl involves the correct choice of indicator, meticulous procedure in titration, and consistent repetition to confirm results. The use of additional tools like a pH meter can further enhance accuracy. Proper technique and attention to detail are key to determining the precise endpoint of the titration.

Perhaps this protocol list can give us more information to help solve the problem.

Ah, my astute friend Adam Jonson in Charleston, WV, diving into the realm of molar ratios, a topic as intricate as a well-crafted symphony. Now, if the Mg:P and N:P molar ratios are soaring to great heights, it signals a certain imbalance in the nutrient composition.

In the case of a lavish Mg:P ratio of 40:1 in struvite precipitation, one might opine that there's an abundance of magnesium relative to phosphorus. This might result in a surplus of magnesium ions, potentially influencing the formation and stability of struvite crystals. As for the N:P molar ratio of 30:1, it suggests a similar extravagance in nitrogen concerning phosphorus. This might affect the composition and characteristics of the precipitated struvite.

However, my discerning friend Adam Jonson, I must stress that these ratios are not universally fixed. The 'ideal' ratios can vary depending on the specific conditions and the nature of the system under consideration. Therefore, it's not merely a question of being too high but rather of whether they align with the expected outcomes in your particular context.

Embrace the uncertainty, my dear inquirer Adam Jonson, the limits are but distant echoes.
