    @ChemistrywithDrGАй бұрын

    great question! We are going to address this question when we discuss thermodynamics. The double walled structure of the cup prevents heat from getting through the cup as it is evacuated in the middle. No gas between = no heat transfer. Similar to how some double paned windows work.

    In general, what do too many or too few eggs do to dough and why do they have this effect? Also, why can an allergic reaction start in the throat and then transition to the nose (ie. breathing problems, stuffy nose)?

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrGАй бұрын

    These are some great questions. For allergies, this tends to be the area most directly exposed to the allergen, which is usually ingested or inhaled. Too few or too many eggs leads to an imbalance in the egg protein binder to the rest of the ingredients for dough.

    Considering the growing interest in sustainable and green chemistry, how can principles of atom economy and energy efficiency be better integrated into industrial chemical processes to minimize environmental impact without compromising yield and efficiency? Additionally, how can recent advancements in catalysis and renewable materials contribute to more sustainable chemical manufacturing practices?

    How do botanical extracts and plant-derived ingredients impact skincare formulations?

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrGАй бұрын

    In a way, these extracts come from natural products and get extracted many times via steam distillation. The steam is passed over leaves (such as Eucalyptus), which "dissolves" the oil from the leaves, then they are cooled and the water vapor separates from the oil since they have different boiling point temperatures (and vapor pressures at the same temperature)

    When they are first produced, they are air dried (or freeze dried) to remove the water content, which helps the noodles last longer. Then we just add hot water, which quickly cooks the partially cooked noodles and you have a quick meal. :)

    What makes a "fluorescent" highlighter marker so bright?

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrGАй бұрын

    Amazing question! This is because the highlighters actually contain molecules that fluoresce! They absorb the light energy from the visible spectrum, then they emit their own light at a different wavelength, which in a way they "glow." This added fluorescent emission causes the highlighters to be even brigher than normal pigments. Normal pigments simply reflect light at a specific wavelength, which is why they are not as bright.

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrGАй бұрын

    Great observation! It is not necessarily that the water in the bottles expire, but there is a slow leaching of substances from the plastic of the bottle into the water and at a certain point, the concentration of leached materials gets too high to be considered safe and the water "expires."

    How is plastic made? What makes plastic strong, flexible, and relatively cheap to make?

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrGАй бұрын

    Plastics usually start from natural gas or oil and through a few chemical reactions. Usually, the smaller molecules, like ethane and propane, are dehydrogenated to form ethylene or propylene. These are then polymerized (connected together in long chains of many ethylene or propylene molecules bonded together), which forms the plastics. That is why plastic bottles can be labeled as polyethylene or polypropylene.

    What chemical reactions occur during tooth decay? Why are some people more prone to tooth decay than others?

  • @ChemistrywithDrG

    many times, tooth decay occurs from bacteria, when the bacteria creates acidic compounds that are released onto the teeth, which causes the teeth to dissolve. Think of how vinegar (weak acid acetic acid) can dissolve an egg shell, but much slower in our mouth on our teeth.

    This can be influenced by many things. The size of the molecule that we smell with the perfume, the air movement (wind, air purifiers), and the diffusion of other molecules. Great question. Many times, the larger the molecule that we smell from the perfume, the faster it will deposit out from the vapor or gas phase as gravity pulls it back to the surface.

  • @ChemistrywithDrG

    You will be using a comparison. You will have a standard solution that has a known amount of the analyte you are interested in quantifying (for example caffeine) and a known internal standard concentration added (for example benzoic acid) and get a signal for both caffeine (analyte) and benzoic acid (internal standard). Then you will add the same amount of benzoic acid to your unknown solution as an internal standard. Get the signal for both caffeine and benzoic acid, then compare the signals for caffeine and benzoic acid from the standard solution to the unknown solution.

    Good morning. What should I do to understand if I have matrix effect?

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrG8 ай бұрын

    You could think about measuring an external standard with a known concentration with the instrument. Then dope in the same standard analyte amount into the sample and see if you get the same signal increase in the doped standard as in the external standard. For example, an external standard with a concentration of 0.2 M gave a signal of 0.5. The sample gives a signal of 0.3 for the analyte. If the sample doped with 0.2 M gives a signal of 0.8 (the sum of the sample and the external sample signal) then there is no matrix effect. However if it differs from this then you know there is a matrix effect.

  • @ChemistrywithDrG
    @ChemistrywithDrG9 ай бұрын

    Great question. If you are unaware of the concentration of your sample, you will want to do some research about the instrument you are using. What is the linear range possible with the instrument? What is the LOD or LOQ? Then, do a first test of your sample with a dilution, to make sure that the pure sample will not overload your detector or your analytical system. If it is low, then analyze the sample at higher and higher concentrations, until you get a significant signal.
