The critical micelle concentrations and thermodynamic parameters of micelle formation such as enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy were determined at different temperatures and volume fractions of ethanol. Results show that the CMC of CTAB increased with increasing volume fraction of ethanol indicating that the solubility of CTAB in aqueous solution may have decreased with increasing volume fraction of ethanol. The CMC of the surfactant solution also increased in the presence of the dye which may be attributed to steric hindrance due to the bulkiness of the azo dye. The increased CMC observed with temperature may suggest breakdown of structured water molecules surrounding the hydrophobic alkyl chain as well as increased molecular freedom of the surfactant molecules due to higher kinetic energy. The decreasing negative values of Gibbs free energy may indicate that micellization was thermodynamically feasible but less spontaneous on increasing volume fraction of ethanol, in the presence of the dye and with increasing temperature. However, temperature effect was not large. The enthalpy of the process shows that the interaction between the dye and surfactant was exothermic (?H 0m ? ? ) and the observed positive values of ?Sm is suggestive of entropy driven micellization process. ","PeriodicalId":15357,"journal":{"name":"Journal Of Chemical Society Of Nigeria","volume":"7 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140426365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has led to increase in the activities of artisanal refining in the Niger Delta, which invariably adulterates the product. This study was aimed at comparing the physical parameters of artisanal with regular Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) and Dual-Purpose Kerosene (DPK) to compare their compliance with ASTM standards. The artisanal PMS and DPK samples were purchased, prepared and analyzed by SOP as stated by ASTM. The results obtained for PMS were: density of artisanal PMS (APMS) (0.768±0.00035) and regular PMS (RPMS) (0.764±0.00028), Reid vapour pressure (RVP) of APMS (27.67±2.52kPa) and RPMS (45.00±1.41kPa), specific gravity of APMS (0.769±0.0004) and RPMS (0.765±0.0003), Flash point of APMS (30±0.0010C) and RPMS (<300C). Those of DPK were: density of artisanal DPK (ADPK) (0.820±0.0001) and regular DPK (RDPK) (0.787±0.420C), Specific gravity of ADPK (0.821±0.001) and RDPK (0.788±0.0001), RVP of ADPK (<1KPa) and RDPK (<1KPa), Flash point of ADPK (72.30±2.520C) and RDPK (75±2.830C). The findings revealed that specific gravity for both artisanal and regular PMS and DPK were within ASTM specification, while RVP for APMS was below ASTM specification but within ASTM specification for RPMS. Also, distillation ranges of APMS were above ASTM specification but were within ASTM specification for RPMS. Distillation ranges of ADPK before 90% were below ASTM specification but became above thereafter. Based on these findings, the study concludes that, the refining process of artisanal PMS and DPK may not have been appropriate or adulteration may have taken place which may cause problems in automotive engines, human health and the environment. However, this domestic innovation of refining can be upgraded to bring about improved quality of PMS and DPK.","PeriodicalId":15357,"journal":{"name":"Journal Of Chemical Society Of Nigeria","volume":"59 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140424178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, the phyto-fabrication of silver grafted guava leaf extract and biomass biochar nanocomposite was executed using a novel, facile, low cost, sustainable and eco-friendly route. The formation of the nanocomposite was evidenced through UV spectroscopic analysis with surface plasmon resonance peak at 349 nm. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX) also confirmed the formation of the nanocomposite as illustrated by the spectra change and presence of Ag+ ions on the surface of the nanocomposite respectively. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed the crystal structure and spherical, porous nature with a size range of 25 to 40 nm of the nanocomposite respectively. The potential of nanocomposite in the removal of MBwas evident under different conditions as it reached nearly 100% under the optimum reaction conditions (methylene blue (MB) concentration; 10 ppm, a dose of Ag/extract /biochar; 0.01 g, temperature; 25 °C). The novel nanocomposite regeneration and reusability was promising, as the removal efficiency of MB from solution after five cycle reuse was above 80 %.

Numerous chemical discharges from agricultural applications of pesticides and industrial outlets could destroy human body parts and deplete the environment. This study assessed the occurrence of some organochlorine pesticides in giant African snails from Oje Market, Ibadan, Nigeria. Aldrin, dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), and heptachlor epoxide levels were measured in snails taken at random from thirty (30) sample points in the Oje market in Ibadan. Snails were weighed, labeled, and then divided into three groups of ten (10). The forte extraction method was used, and gas chromatography with an electron capture detector (GC/ECD) was used to analyze the various pesticide types in the snail sample. The mean concentration of heptachlor epoxide is 41.65 mg/kg, higher than aldrin and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (9.44 mg/kg and 4.17 mg/kg, respectively). The concentrations of pesticides range from 4.27 mg/kg - 21.77 mg/kg for aldrin, 2.80 mg/kg to 6.92 mg/kg for dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, and 22.87 mg/kg to 75.15 mg/kg for heptachlor epoxide. The Pearson correlation coefficient between Aldrin and DDT is 0.939, while that of Aldrin and Heptachlor epoxide is 0.945, and that of Heptachlor epoxide and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane is 0.981. The analysis revealed a solid positive correlation between the concentration of pesticides. The pesticide levels observed in the snail samples exceeded those of the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization. Therefore, snails' consumption should be monitored to avoid toxicity in humans.","PeriodicalId":15357,"journal":{"name":"Journal Of Chemical Society Of Nigeria","volume":"30 20","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139534518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental results indicates that doping of Pd/Ag on TiO2 increases the photocatalytic efficiency of TiO2. The experimental results indicates that Pd/ TiO2 has a photodegradation efficiency of 40.44% while Ag/TiO2 has a photodegradation efficiency of 60.44%. The dried catalysts were subsequently used again under the same experimental condition with a fresh 3-chlorophenol up to four (4) times. The result indicates that the re-used catalysts remain active for up to four (4) times of usage with minor reduction in activity, which is attributed to metal leaching. Ag/TiO2 has higher rate constant of - 0.019 than Pd/TiO2 which is -0.031, the rate constant for the degradation followed first-order reaction kinetics.
