After a brief search of the Toxicology Data Network and cross-referencing with the compounds you identified so far in lavender, you notice cineole, a known phytochemical used in pesticides. This chemical interests you as you read a paper published by Dr. Mitchell Erickson MD about this harmful pesticide being detected in breast milk from residents in Jersey City, NJ. You know that in low doses this chemical increases the absorption of chlorohexidine (a chlorine containing chemical used to disinfect skin before surgery) and other chlorinated chemicals by the activity of glucuronyltransferase, a key enzyme in drug metabolism and detoxification. You noticed this enzyme opens cineole's epoxide ring in an SN1 characteristic. This is advantageous to you since in it's epoxide form cineole cannot be easily seperated from water without decomposing it and an alcohol can be dehydrated in the presence of a strong acid and mild heating. Unfortunately, this newly converted cycloalkene exists at equilibrium with it's alcohol derivative. Propose a method to get the purified cyclolkene (there are several).

Apiping systems consists of 6 m of 6-std type k and 12 m of 4-std type k, both drawn copper tubing. the system conveys ethylene glycol at a rate of 0.013 m3/s. the pressure drop across the system is to be calculated. there are two 90° elbows in the 6-in pipe, a reduction from the 6-in pipe to the 4-in pipe and four 90° elbows in the 4-in pipe. all fittings are soldered (same as flanged) and regular. the inlet and outlet of the system are at the same height.
