U-torrent allows you to send and recieve any type of file of any size both publicly and privatly quickly.

How to create a torrent with U-torrent

1. File > Create new Torrent (or CTRL + N)
2. Select the files and or directories

3. Trackers: This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough.

Here are some good trackers you can use:

http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announce
http://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announce
http://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
udp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce
http://www.sumotracker.com/announce

Put one of these in the tracker box

4. Do NOT tick the private torrent box (unless you’re using a private tracker)

5. Save the torrent and send it to your friends or post/uplead it with, say pirate bay for example.

Simple Alkanes

Simple Alkanes

1:  review (hopefully)  you are already know…meth, eth, prop, but, pent, hex, hept, oct, non, dec, right?

2: noncyclic compounds  name from the longest continuous carbon chain. Longest becomes an ane so one carbon is methane, two is ethane etc.  Substituents are from  the shortest end, add yl so a single (one one) is  methyl (on the one is assumed) 2-methylwhatever on the 2 carbon and so on.

3: arrange names of substituents  in alphabetical order.

one more, I think this is the same class as below with a different teacher, have not looked yet but it is very basic stuff…

OK, but so detailed it's not good for beginners...

solution - solute/solvent

solute (the solid or less amount with liquids) is disolved in solvent. More will disolve if you add heat. The most ionic compunds are endothermic, produce heat when dissolving in solution. This is written on the reaction side of the equasion. NaCl and H2O for example, NaCl (salt) is polar and so the reaction reads NaCl ---> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) to produce salt water which has free ions, thus an electrolyte.

Due to polar molecules electrolytes have ions moving about is solution spontaneously. Any substance with free ions is an electrolyte. Electron movement conducts electricity so conductive = electrolyte.

Halides (Cl, I, Br F) and nitrides (NO3) will make neutral solution. The solution is neutral but ionic.

bonding

Period 1
1+ (this is the charge or +1 if you like). These elements have one electron to give up. Looking at the perodic table H, Li, Na, (do not worry too much about the lower groups, they don't come up much), are all in period 1. They have one to many. Lewis dot structure like this H. An H with one dot.

Period 2
2+ Be, Mg, Ca etc. do not worry too much about the lower groups, they don't come up much. These have 2 to give. Lewis dot Mg:

Period 3 to 12 transitional metals...don't worry about them either.

Period 13
3+ (charge) B, Al, etc. lewis dot 3 dots .

Period 14
+ or - 4 (four to give or get). C, Si . Lewis dot :C: (four dots)

Period 15
3- (three to aquire). N, P (five dots etc.)

Period 16
2- O, S

Period 17
1- F, Cl, Br, I

Period 18
0 (stable) don't bond generaly

No lewis dot font to be found anywhere...this should be available but I can't find it.

Indole is a solid at room temperature. Indole can be produced by bacteria as a degradation product of the amino acid tryptophan. It occurs naturally in human feces and has an intense fecal odor. At very low concentrations, however, it has a flowery smell[1], and is a constituent of many flower scents (such as orange blossoms) and perfumes. It also occurs in coal tar.

Indole undergoes electrophilic substitution, mainly at position 3. Substituted indoles are structural elements of (and for some compounds the synthetic precursors for) the tryptophan-derived tryptamine alkaloids like the neurotransmitter serotonin, and melatonin. Other indolic compounds include the plant hormone Auxin (indolyl-3-acetic acid, IAA), the anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin, and the betablocker pindolol.

The name indole is a portmanteau of the words indigo and oleum, since indole was first isolated by treatment of the indigo dye with oleum.
