The condensation of dithio-oxamide with aromatic aldehyde was described by Ephraim.5 More recently, Johnson and Ketcham6 studied the reaction and established the structure ofRead MoreEssay about Acoustic Theory and Synthesis1158 Words   |  5 PagesAcoustic Theory and Synthesis Frequency: Frequency means the number of cycles per second and depending on the amount of cycles per second determines how high or low pitched the sound is and the time that it takes to complete one cycle is called the period. Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz). And An average human is able to hear sounds between 20Hz and 20,000Hz. As the cycles per second increases, the smaller the wavelengths become, therefore there is a higher frequency which will causeRead MoreSynthesis Essay : Synthesis Process Essay Essay1680 Words   |  7 PagesSarai Michel APLC, Period 1 Mrs. Galvan September 23, 2015 Synthesis Process Essay To whom may be concerned: It has recently been brought to my attention that our school is looking to adopt a sustainable menu into our meal program and I would like to give my viewpoint on the matter.
