Excess Pressure Inside a Drop and a Bubble01:13

Excess Pressure Inside a Drop and a Bubble

3.5K
The shape of a small drop of liquid can be considered spherical, neglecting the effect of gravity. This drop can further be considered as two equal hemispherical drops put together due to surface tension. The forces acting on the spherical drop are due to the pressure of the liquid inside the drop, the pressure due to air outside the drop, and the force due to the surface tension acting on the two hemispherical drops.

Oxidation of Alcohols

16.3K
In this lesson, the oxidation of alcohols is discussed in depth. The various reagents used for oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols are detailed, and their mechanism of action is provided.
The process of oxidation in a chemical reaction is observed in any of the three forms:

Ethers from Alcohols: Alcohol Dehydration and Williamson Ether Synthesis

13.0K
Overview
Ethers can be prepared from organic compounds by various methods. Some of them are discussed below,
Preparation of Ethers by Alcohol Dehydration
In this method, in the presence of protic acids, alcohol dehydrates to produce alkenes and ethers under different conditions. For example, in the presence of sulphuric acid, dehydration of ethanol at 413 K yields ethoxyethane, whereas it yields ethene at 443 K.

Leveling Effect01:29

Leveling Effect

1.4K
In acid-base chemistry, the leveling effect refers to the limitation imposed by the solvent on the strength of acids and bases in solution. When a base stronger than the solvent's conjugate base is used, it deprotonates the solvent until the base is entirely consumed, making it ineffective against weaker acids. Conversely, an acid stronger than the solvent's conjugate acid protonates the solvent until the acid is depleted, rendering it ineffective against weaker bases. Essentially, the...

Protection of Alcohols02:31

Protection of Alcohols

8.1K
This lesson delves into the concept of protection and deprotection of a functional group fundamental to synthetic organic chemistry. These phenomena are explained in the context of aliphatic and aromatic alcohols.
Protection
It defines a protecting group as the masking agent to make the more reactive species inert to a given set of conditions. This concept is depicted via the illustration of liquid flow through different outlets in an assembly of pipes. The analogy helps to understand the role...

High-Level and Low-Level Awareness01:19

High-Level and Low-Level Awareness

786
Controlled processes in human consciousness represent high-alert mental states where individuals deliberately focus their attention on achieving specific goals. Controlled processes can be seen in situations like mastering new technology, where a person might become so absorbed that they ignore surrounding distractions. Such processes involve selective attention, requiring one to concentrate on particular elements of experience while disregarding others. These are governed by executive...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Higher Education Research
  • Intervention Science

Background:

  • Problem alcohol use is a significant global concern, particularly among university students.
  • National policies emphasize student-focused interventions for alcohol consumption.
  • A multi-component approach is necessary to address the complexity of excessive alcohol use.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop, implement, and evaluate the REACT (Responding to Excessive Alcohol Consumption in Third-level) Programme.
  • To provide an evidence base for the development, implementation, and improvement of interventions targeting student alcohol use.
  • To translate policy into practice for reducing hazardous alcohol consumption and related harms among higher education students.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature review and Delphi-consensus workshop informed the multi-component intervention design.
  • The REACT Programme is being implemented across Irish Higher Education Institutions, with some serving as control sites.
  • An online cross-sectional study at baseline and two-year follow-up, alongside qualitative research, will assess the programme's impact and implementation factors.

Main Results:

  • The evaluation will determine if the REACT Programme reduces alcohol consumption among third-level students.
  • The study will assess changes in students' attitudes toward alcohol.
  • The research will investigate the decrease in second-hand effects associated with excessive student alcohol consumption.

Conclusions:

  • The REACT Programme offers a structured approach to address hazardous alcohol consumption in the higher education sector.
  • Evidence from this evaluation will guide future interventions and policy development for student well-being.
  • Understanding factors influencing programme uptake and implementation is crucial for its success.
