Compare and contrast the techniques (Evaporation, Filtration, Crystallization). When is each technique appropriate? What are the advantages vs disadvantages? Why was the vanillin exposed to two different techniques? Could we have isolated the vanillin using a different technique? Why or why not?
Evaporation is used when the both the solvent and the solute are not affected by the high temperature. It cannot be used where the solvent and/or solute start to react or decompose or polymerize due to the temperature.
Filteration is used when the solute particles are larger and can be separated by such mechanisms. It is a normal temperature process but highly dependent on the particle size.
Crystallization is used when one is interested in extracting solute particles from the solution. It is dependent on the solubility as a function of temperature. It may require seeding sometimes. But it gives very controlled separation.
The vanillin was first crystallized and then filtered. Evaporation was not a very good idea as it could have damaged the molecule. However, if we would have used low pressure evaporation, then it could have been separated using evaporation only.

Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of the two techniques HPLC vs. electrochemistry for determination of vitamin C in multivitamin tablets
Compare and contrast packet and circuit switched networks and provide examples of each network type? What some of the advantages and disadvantages of these switching technique?
What are the advantages and disadvantages gas chromatography (hint: compare to other chromatographic techniques we have investigated)?
Compare and contrast spur, helical, spiroid, hypoid, spiral, bevel and worm gears. What are the advantages/disadvantages of each? When and/or where would you use each type? There are 5 types of clutches. List them, and compare/contrast, listing the application uses for each type. Explain the two types of brakes - disc and drums. Which is more susceptible to changes in coefficient of function and why? Look at these two examples of couplings. Which of these is more suitable for a...
DNA Sequencing Techniques Compare/contrast Sanger sequencing, pact-bio, and oxford nanopore sequencing techniques. Include how to make a library, and why you would use each one in respect to cost, size, % error, etc. Consider budget, what you want to get out of it, and is there merit to combine different technologies together?
1. Compare and contrast first generation sequencing techniques (Sanger sequencing and pyrosequencing) and the second generation sequencing technique ForenSeq using the MiSeq. Include a discussion of reagents, time, cost, optimal sequence length, detection technologies, data output and post-testing analysis in your discussion. Tabulate your answers and be sure to complete the table. 2. Describe the processes that are occurring in PCR1 and PCR2. Why are each of these steps important. Describe the roles of i5 and i7, forward and reverse...
Compare and contrast the four most common capital budgeting techniques: NPV, IRR, Payback, and Accounting Rate of Return. What are the strengths and weaknesses of each when used as the sole investment criterion? Why do most companies use more than one method when evaluating projects? Identify several non quantitative factors that are apt to play a decisive role in the final selection of projects for capital expenditures.
Select two social, cultural, and environmental theories. Compare and contrast the two theories. Explain how each theory works to include its benefits and challenges. Describe a public health issue that could be addressed by each theory. (Note: This list of theories mentioned in the text and lectures is not exhaustive. There are other theories outside of what was mentioned). For the theories you have identified: Define each theory to include a brief overview of the history. Explain how each theory...
Compare and contrast the definitions of leisure, recreation, and play. - What are the definitions of each term? - What do those definitions have in common? - How are the definitions different?
Problem 2. X-rays a) Maybe the most common characterization method that uses X-rays, is X-ray Absorption Imaging. This is basically the same technique as used in hospitals and dentistry. i. What is the sample/ material parameter that makes contrast (dark/ bright image features) in an X-ray absorption image? ii. Explain what is meant by (2D) X-ray Absorption Imaging being a “shadow image”. iii. What limits the resolution in an X-ray Absorption Image? b) Most X-ray based spectroscopy techniques have an...
