... aluminum is put to use on a day-to-day basis. In the third section of this paper I will discuss ten compounds formed from aluminum and give their formula. The first is 1) Sodium Aluminate the formula for this is Al2O2Na4. Sodium aluminate solution is an alkaline source of high-purity it is used for clarifying aid for raw-water and sewage treatment. It ... is also a pitch control and sizing agent in pulp and paper productions. It is manufactured in two forms, stabilized and un-stabilized. The next compound is 2) Aluminum borate the formula is AlBO3. This compound forms crystal structures...

... . There he discovered "two inert, nontoxic, nonflammable gasses with excellent refrigerant properties" (Fisher). These two gasses were dichlorodifluoromethane and trichloromonofluoromethane, which are both simple variations of methane. Methane has the formula CH4, where there are four hydrogen molecules for each carbon molecule. In dichlorodifluoromethane, chlorine and fluorine replace the hydrogen to have the ... formula CCl2F2. In trichloromonofluoromethane, the four hydrogen are kicked out and replaced with three chlorines and only one fluorine. Combined together they create chloroflu...

... 1 milliliter of .01 M thiosulphate solution is equal to .056 milliliters of oxygen. The final step would be to calculate the concentration of oxygen per liter of water using the following formula: oxygen=(.056y1000)/50 y is the amount of thiosulphate used. The much easier and far less complicated way to find the amount of dissolved oxygen in a sample of water would be ... ...
