Chemistry (including Biochemistry)/Expert Profile
Expertise
Prefer questions regarding general chemistry, analytical chemistry, and physical chemistry. Have less knowledge about organic chemistry but can help with most undergraduate organic chemistry questions not related to reactions and their mechanisms.
Experience in the area
Highly experienced in physical chemistry both theoretical and experimental. Current research focus is fluorescence spectroscopy and electronic structure theory (e.g. quantum mechanics). Past research focus was in analytical chemistry in the area of photocatalysis.
Organizations
American Chemical Society; Society of Christian Philosophers; Evangelical Philosophical Society

the half life is the amount of time it takes for half of the material to be left. So if I had a material and the half life was 8 years that would mean that after 8 years half of what I started with would
2009-11-05 Nitrogen gasoline:
Well, without specific information about what process they have going on I can tell you a few things about Nitrogen that they may be exploiting. Nitrogen has a very high heat of formation and when it is
2009-11-03 Organic Chemistry...well, sort of. PLEASE HELP!!!:
This will be very difficult. Generally when A stain is "removed" all that happens is some bonds are broken in the stain. This allow the absorbance of the stain to shift into a non-visible region. So you
2009-11-02 Chemistry:
So in order to answer this question we first need to know how many atoms in 59.0g of F. We can take the molecular weight of F which is 19g/mol. This means for every 1 mole of F I have 19g and for every
2009-10-20 Electron ray vs Magnets:
The laws of electro-magnetism tell us that both concepts (electric charges and magnetic fields) are integrally related. And in either case they posses a negative charge which would be attracted to a positive
