Compound W, also called 3,5-bis(4-Nitrophenoxy) benzoic acid or salicylic acid topical, is an over the counter wart removal medication. Compound W is a keratolytic (peeling agent). It is used to shed the outer layer of skin; because of this, Compound W is often used to remove corns, calluses and warts. Furthermore, it is also used in the treatment of acne, dandruff, seborrhea and psoriasis. Compound W works by increasing the amount of moisture in the skin and helps dissolve the substances that cause the skin cells to stick together which helps make the skin cells shed off. Compound W increases the moisture in the skin by using the hydrogen and oxygen in the molecule to create water. It also helps lower the level of secreted Ab42 and Nb25. Compound W is accessible to everything because it is an over the counter medication. The main manufacturer …show more content…
of Compound W is Prestige Brands in New York. Currently, there are no environmental, social or ethical drawbacks to storing Compound W in your house. Compound W’s chemical formula is C19H12N2O8.
All the bond types in this molecule are covalent bonds because all the elements involved are non-metals. There are three carbon rings in the molecule and each carbon ring is connected with an oxygen. The inactive ingredients alcohol, camphor, castor oil, collodion, ether, ethylcellulose, hypophosphorous acid, menthol, and polysorbate 80. The active ingredient in Compound W is salicylic acid. Salicylic acid, also called ortho-hydroxybenzoic acid, is mainly used for pharmaceutical products such as aspirin and Compound W. The chemical formula for salicylic acid is C7H6O3. In 1838, an Italian chemist Raffaele Piria created salicylic acid from salicylaldehyde. This was the first time salicylic acid was ever prepared. Later on in 1860, two German chemists discovered an synthesis based on phenol and carbon dioxide. However, today salicylic acid is not made either of these ways. It is made from dry sodium phenoxide and carbon dioxide which is then followed by treatment with acid. Even though salicylic acid is prepared, it can be found in small quantities in plants of the genus
Spiraea. All the bonds in Compound W are covalent; there are certain characteristics that are common between all molecules with covalent bonds and Compound W isn’t an exception. These characteristics are the molecule has a low melting and boiling point and easily flammable. Compound W does not conduct electricity, doesn’t mix into water easily and is odorless and colourless. There are many side effects that can occur when using Compound W, this includes headaches, stomach pain, light-headed, shortness of breath, and skin irritation. It is advised that if any of these symptoms occur to go see your doctor as soon as possible. However, there are ways to minimize these hazards. Make sure you see your doctor before applying Compound W and see if it is safe for you to use it. If a child or teenager with a fever, flu or chickenpox uses Compound W, it may case Reye’s syndrome. This can be a serious and sometimes fatal condition in children. Follow instructions carefully when applying Compound W, and only apply the medication on affected area. Do not be alarmed if the affected area becomes white, it is normal for this to happen. If Compound W does get on an area that is not affected. Wash the unaffected area with water as soon as possible. Even though there may not be a WHMIS rating on Compound W, be sure to use it with care.
One main idea of this book was that with the right mindset anything is possible. This is proven in the book when Louie is in the concentration camp and has to hold up a large piece of wood while having the Japanese guards stare at him. This shows that he had the mindset that he could outlast the guards and that he could overcome any obstacles in life.
Esterification was used to synthesize aspirin which was by reacting salicylic acid with acetic anhydride. To speed up the reaction, dehydrating agent and conc. sulphuric acid was present. The purity of a substance, which is the aspirin in this particular experiment, can be determined by the identification of its melting point.
Unbroken by Lauren Hillenbrand is written about the perspective of a young Olympic runner named Louis Zamperini. He is from Torrance, California. Life for him was normal until the he was called into service for his country. It was then when one of his most unforgettable experiences developed.
Multistep Synthesis of Benzilic Acid from Benzaldehyde Cambria M. Miller March 24, 2014 Texas A&M University at Galveston, Galveston, Texas INTRODUCTION Benzilic acid (fig. 1) is a white crystalline solid often used in organic synthesis of certain pharmaceuticals and drugs (1). It is thought that benzilic acid may have success in anti-aging products. Benzilic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid and other alpha hydroxy acids have been used in the same manner (2). Figure 1. Benzilic acid structure.
Aspirin contains the substance acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), which can relieve inflammation, fever, pain, and known as a “blood thinner”. Aspirin was not officially trademarked until March 6, 1899 when the Imperial Office of Berlin made it official. It has been used for the last 110 years, but its natural form, salicylic acid has been around for thousands by Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. Aspirin is available in over 80 countries and known as the best non-prescription drug. The most common use of aspirin is to cure headaches and use it as a pain reliever, but aspirin is known to prevent heart attack and strokes. It was first proposed in 1940, but wasn’t confirmed until 1970 when doctors would recommend taking aspirin daily [1].
The Scarlet Letter and The Crucible both provide similarities about the characters within the Puritan community. Both books reveal similarities between Hester Prynne in The Scarlet Letter and John Proctor in The Crucible. Hester Prynne and John Proctor are not physically similar, but they are alike in some ways because their beliefs and emotions towards the Puritan law affect their reputation and determine the outcome of their future. Hester Prynne and John Proctor are not physically similar but both characters feel guilty for committing adultery, show integrity, they are courageous, and their deaths have left behind a legacy.
A boy who likes to cause trouble and to run turned into an olympic runner. Just as he was about to break the record mile time and get a gold medal, suddenly a historic day turned his life into a day to day survival story at sea. It then changes forever when a Japanese plane brings him into a Japanese POW camp. The amazing man's name was Louie Zamperini and his amazing story is written and told by Laura Hillenbrand in the nonfiction novel Unbroken.
Unbroken is the tale of Louis Silvie "Louie" Zamperini a former American war prisoner survivor. Unbroken shows how Zamperini survived and stayed strong in his darkest hours in the Japanese concentration camps of World War II. Unbroken is a very spiritual book that proves that not giving up, staying strong, and being motivated will help you in life. Louie Zamperini was able to overcome a lot of horrible experiences by keeping a positive spirit and mind (set). The point of my essay is that hanging onto bravery and remaining strong all the while being in the belly of the beast will help you survive.
As shown in figure 8, the synthesis of Aspirin reaction contains salicylic acid and acetic anhydride (a phenol and an anhydride) to form acetylsalicylic acid and acetic acid (The product and by-product). The chemical equation for the equation is:
Background Information Aspirin is an analgesic (pain relieving) and an antipyretic drug (a drug that lowers body temperature). The main constituent of aspirin is 2 - ethanoythydroxybenzoic acid, also known as acetylsalicyclic acid (shown below right). It was originally made from just salicylic acid (which is found in the bark of a willow tree) when used by the Ancient Greeks to counter fever and pain, but its bitterness and tendency to irritate the stomach caused problems. These were resolved by the German chemist Felix Hoffman, who made the acetyl derivative of salicylic acid in the
·Aspirin (salicylic acid acetate) is an anti-inflammatory (decreases swelling and inflammation), anti-pyretic (fever reducing), and anti-platelet (decreases platelets in the body to thin blood). Many heart treatment patients take an aspirin a day to prevent blood clotting. However, if aspirin is taken in large quantities over long periods of time, it may cause gastric ulcers or other internal damage. The molecular formula of aspirin is C9H8O4. Some examples of Aspirin are Bayer, Ecotrin, and Aspergum.
Curriculum and instruction is impacted by assessment, and whether in the design, delivery or data interpretation processes, aligning these apparatuses is most challenging part of being a teacher. Teachers are called to exercise an alignment between assessment and curriculum, use assessment to guide instruction, and deliver assessment that truly evaluates achievement. Two forms of assessment used in the classroom, formative and summative possess important components, that track them into purposeful, designated uses. Even more so challenging as a teacher in using these two assessments is understanding how they work separately, together, and exploring how they might be used with and for each other.
Divergent is all about identity and finding where you belong and where to fit in. Divergent takes place in a dystopian future society in which there are 5 factions that one must choose from or end up becoming ‘factionless’. ‘Factionless’ people are people who didn’t fit in the system, they have no identity, no places to live and the lowest social status. The protagonist had a sense of bravery ever since she was a child which I believe makes here a great character.
The following lists are not all-inclusive, but most common. They are a minimum students at each grade level should read and understand how to use and apply by the current school year end. Others may be added based on your classroom of students.
