Haeme
Haeme, (Heme), Haemoglobin, (Hemoglobin)
Haemoglobin is the protein that carries oxygen in the blood.
The haem group causes the red colour of blood.
The different kinds of haem are Haeme A, B, C and O.
Haeme A is a cytochrome oxidase ligand complex, C49H56O6N4Fe, a tetradentate ligand.
The most common type is Haeme B, C34H32O4N4Fe,
Haeme: See diagram 16.3.5.2.1
The "quaternary proteins" have four joined tertiary proteins, e.g. haemoglobin.
The "transition metals" form complex ions and often have catalytic activity, e.g. Fe in haemoglobin molecule.
Porphyrin chelates include haeme, in haemoglobin, bonded to iron (II) ion, and chlorophyll bonded to Mg (II) ion.

3.4.9 Handling and transferring chemicals, Adding chemicals to containers
When adding chemicals to a reaction or container:
1. Students should not touch any chemical, but use a spatula or gloves, except for a few experiments when students are told to feel the texture of chemicals or minerals to determine whether they are crystalline or amorphous.
If students do touch any chemical, they should immediately wash their hands with soap and water.
2. The best way to add chemical to a container is to pour the powdered or crystalline chemical into a creased rectangle of clean paper, then tip the chemical from this paper held in a V- shape.
3. When taking chemicals from a container, after removing the stopper, keep holding the stopper in one hand so that you can replace it immediately afterwards.
This method ensures that the chemical does not have unnecessary exposure to air and that the correct stopper is replaced.
4. Transfer liquids through a funnel or pour the liquid slowly down a glass rod.
5. Fill pipettes with a pipette-filler and not by sucking by mouth.

Hydrogenation
13.3.4 Hydrogen gas
Hydrogenation, cis-trans fatty acids: 3.9.8
Formation of alkanes: 16.4.1.1
Hydrogenation is a reduction reaction which results in an addition of hydrogen, H2.
Hydrogenated organic compounds become more saturated with hydrogen atoms.
For example, trans fatty acid (trans fat), is a fatty acid, formed as a result of hydrogenation.
Hydrogenation is the addition of hydrogen to a molecule to convert unsaturated organic molecules to saturated molecules and reducing double bonds to single bonds.
For example: (H2C=CH2 + H2) --> (CH3CH3)
alkene + hydrogen --> alkane

* Silica gel, SiO2
Dry silica gel SiO2, is hygroscopic.
It absorbs water from the air, but does not dissolve in the water.
It occurs naturally and is manufactured as beads to be used as a desiccant in laboratory glass vacuum desiccators and in silica gel packets packed with equipment, e.g. microscopes, food products and toilet products.
Be careful! The packets may usually bear a warnings not to eat the contents, so children should not have access to them, thinking they are packets of lollies!
* Hygroscopic polymers
"Fortune Teller Fish" (child's toy)
Hygroscopic polymers, including nylon, ABS, polycarbonate, cellulose, and Poly(methyl methacrylate)
Some forms of hygroscopic red cellophane used in novelties are flat on a warm dry surface, but curl up in the hand when they absorb sweat and evaporate moisture.
Experiments
Expose different salts to the air
Put equal volumes of different salts on separate watch glasses, e.g. dry calcium chloride, copper (II) sulfate-5-water, iron (II) sulfate-7-water, potassium carbonate, dry silica gel, pure sodium chloride, and sodium sulfate-10-water.
Examine the salts after one hour and after one day.
Expose sodium carbonate decahydrate to the air
The relative molecular mass of sodium carbonate-10-water = 286.15.
The relative molecular mass of anhydrous sodium carbonate = 105.99.
The relative molecular mass of sodium carbonate in sodium carbonate crystals = (105.99/286.15) X 100 = 37%.
Open an unopened packet of washing soda.
Put 10 g of washing soda in an evaporating basin.
Record the time for the crystals to change into a white powder.
Leave the basin for two days.
Record the time for all the crystals to change into a white powder.
Weigh the powder.
Calculate the weight of the powder expressed as the percentage of the original weight of the crystals.

34.7 Heat treatment of metals
Heating steel material to "red heat" then cooling it slowly is called annealing.
Putting steel material heated to red heat into cold liquid to cool it quickly is called quenching.
Reheated steel material is quenched to the temperature slightly lower than "red heat" temperature, then cooled slowly, called tempering.
Annealing, quenching and tempering are heat treatings to change rigidity, brittleness and toughness, by changing the arrangement of iron atoms.
Annealing is a form of heat treatment to soften a metal and make it easier to work.
Annealing is often used to soften steel to relax its inner stress to change its shape by forging, pressing and machining.
