Q&A: Is it typically safe to apply heat to a vacuum filtration flask, with only the sidearm left open?
Question by Chem Kid: Is it typically safe to apply heat to a vacuum filtration flask, with only the sidearm left open?
I am considering distilling some 70% (mass) store-bought ethanol with a somewhat makeshift apparatus. The top is stoppered with a rubber stopper, and the sidearm is connected to some tubing which runs down a chilled receiving flask. I’d like to make sure that there isn’t some obvious flaw that I’m overlooking.
Best answer:
Answer by Caligula
yeah it should work
maybe the rubber will get attacked by the ethanol vapors over time
maybe the tubing too depending on its material
but if you manage to get a vacuum filtration flask, why cant you get a proper laboratory condenser

Can’t go wrong with Chinese products for this answer– the continued use of paint containing lead on Chinese products, and especially on toys, has been a concern for a while now. Beyond that, there was a pretty extensive bust recently on toothpaste, also from China, which contained a constituent of antifreeze. This is potentially hazardous, even potentially fatal. If China wants to retain their product integrity, like they say, they ultimately will have to solve that within their own country. Anyhoo….
Oh.. that kind of reminds me of the tainted pet food which killed a bunch of pets last year…. and if I’m not mistaken, the ultimate cause was feed containing melamine which came from china.

Q&A: Why did they make the iPhone screen out of glass?
Question by Wedoitjustforfun: Why did they make the iPhone screen out of glass?
It seems like the stupidest design flaw ever. You only have to drop it once and its screwed! Phone makers realise phones get dropped really easily yet they make them out of easy to break material. They are just trying to make more money out of people right? Make people have to fork out for a new one all the time or the excess for a replacement. I don’t have an iPhone but people keep telling me to get one. I don’t doubt they are an awesome piece of kit but I can’t get over that they are made of glass. Knowing my luck I’d drop it in the first week. Most of my friends who have iPhones are going about with broken screens from having dropped them and as they are students and can’t afford to buy new or get a replacement. I had a iPod that I dropped out of my college locker and that smashed. Although it still worked I couldn’t watch anything on it. I bought the case for it to prevent that from happening but theres nothing to protect the screen apart from a thin piece of sticky plastic and a lot of good that did. It kept coming un stuck, i’d keep finding the plastic loose in my pocket. I also cut my finger trying to use it. I was furious about it. I will never buy another one.

Answer by tawsif
maybe its not a design flaw. maybe they built it intensionaly so that if you brake one you have to buy another one.

Answer by Alana
Ask her if you can use an all natural hair dye, with no ammonia or any harsh chemicals in it. You can buy these from your local health shop.
Tell her, you just want a little bit more colour in your hair & that your not going to do anything extreme & that everyone else is dying there hair. I started dying by hair when I was 10! So.
Good luck! 🙂

What are the cons of genetic engineering crops?

3 bad things about modifying crops DNA. Please put them in easy lanuage because some sites are too confusing thanks x

Answer by El Greco ©Â
The use of Genetic Engineering on plants, crops, and food has also created a great debate among scientists and citizens.
First, in terms of plants and crops, Genetic Engineering can cause widespread crop failure. When a farmer plants genetically engineered seeds, all the seeds have identical genetic structures. Thus if a fungus, pest, or virus grows which can attack this certain crop, there would be a widespread crop failure. The wind, insects, and plants can all carry genetically changed seeds onto close fields and land. Once normal plants produce pollen, they can cross polinate with the genetically engineered crops. Thus all crops, organic and non-organic, are threatened by contamination. Also, this contamination is different from other kinds of pollution because once the genes are out, they cannot be recalled. Genetic Engineering of plants and crops also use a promotes the use of hericide. Herbicides are known to be responsible for great illnesses in farm workers. Herbicides can also contaminate water supplies and kill all the weeds in a field, thus lowering biodiversity.
Also many genetically engineered crops have Bacillus thuringienis (Bt)-toxin genes on them. With this GE material, helpful organisms such as ladybirds, bees, and butterflies are killed. Also if any Bt plant remains fall back to Earth, earthworms and other organisms who live in the soil are threatened. Furthermore, the build up of Bt toxin resistance threatens to stop the effectiveness of insesticides and this deprives the natural ecosystem of one of its pest controls, thus making the restoration of equilibrium difficult after the ecosystem has been disturbed by an abnormality.
Thus do we want these harmful genetically engineered products in our food, as well as these products destroying our agricultural system. We certainly do not. Genetically engineered food has not been fully tested and it is harmful because it uses material from organisms that have never been part of the normal supply of human food. GE can also cause unknown mutations in an organism, which can cause food to contain higher toxins in it. People can also have allergic reactions to genetically engineered food.
Many steps gave been taken to try to stop the distribution of genetically engineered food, but it simply is not enough. Recently, on May 3rd, 2000, the Federal Government and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) announced new guidelines for the manufacturers of genetically modified foods. The new guidelines include a mandatory system in which the FDA must be notified about GM (Genetically Modified) foods and a voluntary system for labeling foods already in stores. This voluntary system angers many environmental and food safety groups because they do not think that it is good enough. They believe that it is necessary for all food distributors to notify customers when they are buying GM food. Andrew Kimbrall of the Center for Food Safety said of the new regulations, “FDA has announced a new policy which is really their old policy. You notify us you’re going to put the food on the market, but we’re not going to require safety testing, we’re not going to require labeling, and so you can go ahead, and the consumer will still not have a choice to avoid these foods if they want to.” The FDA argues that all tested GM food was found to be as safe as the original food. But how is the FDA certain?
Today, over 70 % of all food on grocery store shelves is genetically modified. Popular foods such as Doritos and Bugles are just a few of the GM foods. Many critics have labeled GM foods as “Frankenfood.” Should there be madatory labeling? I believe that this must be done in order to ensure the safety of people. It may be beneficial in cost to use GM foods. But if people begin to die, it certainly will not be worth it
