Durian (King of Fruits) - the Chemistry of the Smell
Here in the United States we are accustomed to eating only a handful of fruits such as apples, oranges and bananas. Yet, there are a lot of fruits that are extremely common in other places of the world. In this weekly video, Jonas, takes a look at durian, a fruit called the "king of fruits" in SE Asia. Durian has one of the strongest smells, and is actually illegal to carry on all forms of public transportation. To understand why, Jonas opens up some of the basic chemistry of this incredible fruit.

[Ultimate Doom] Cannonball #39;s Speedy Episode 1 Wad E1M9 "Atom Smasher" UV Max in 4:21
Pwad: Cannonball #39;s Speedy Episode 1 Wad(cbspeed.wad) Skill: UV Max Map: E1M9 Name: Atom Smasher Time: 4:21 Recorded with: PrBoom-plus 2.5.1.2-test This map take place in a............train station? Terminal? A Chemistry lab? Or............ Maybe none of them are true, this map actually take place inside an atom from its name! As you can see from the automap, there #39;s a nucleus, maybe even protons and neutrons inside. And there #39;s electrons "connected" to this "atom", though there #39;s no electron cloud. From the orbital view, there maybe spdf orbitals too, as I can see there #39;s at least 4 electron shells. No hybridization as this is just an atom, no pi bonds and sigma bonds too. However if it #39;s a compound, then it #39;s sp3 hybridized. Enough about Chemistry. This map is a great fun, lots of spamming! All you need to do is to grab all 3 keys, get the plasma gun and all rockets fast. After that find a safe place and then kill everything with the plasma gun and RL, that #39;s all! And the music fits for this map too! DSDA record is 6:58 by DidierTranber. Cannonball #39;s Speedy Episode 1 wad(cbspeed.wad): doomedsda.usFrom:daiyuxiaoxiangViews:3 0ratingsTime:04:32More inGaming

Chemistry project - swimming raisins
Raisins are denser than the liquid in the soda, so initially they sink to the bottom of the glass. The carbonated soft drink releases carbon dioxide bubbles. When these bubbles stick to the rough surface of a raisin, the raisin is lifted because of the increase in buoyancy. When the raisin reaches the surface, the bubbles pop, and the carbon dioxide gas escapes into the air. This causes the raisin to lose buoyancy and sink. This rising and sinking of the raisins continues until most of the carbon dioxide has escaped, and the soda goes flat. Furthermore, with time the raisin gets soggy and becomes too heavy to rise to the surface.From:wahabq8iViews:0 0ratingsTime:03:26More inScience Technology

And here we are at the end. The answers to yesterday’s quiz are as follows:

275 molecules of water is the minimum number needed to form an ice crystal or the world’s smallest snowflake. You can read our story here.

Eating a big turkey Christmas lunch is reputed to make you feel sleepy, but this is a myth. The levels of tryptophan in turkey are comparable to other meats.

We hope you’ve enjoyed the quiz. Thanks to all for your answers.

We told you about this last Christmas but a year is a long time so let me remind you again: if you get a tablet device for Christmas, one of the first apps you need to install is the Chemistry World app.

The digital edition of Chemistry World is available from Google Play and iTunes and is free to download for all RSC members and e-members. You can log in, choose the latest issue or a back issue or and swipe through it just like the printed publication. And don’t forget you can download the issue for offline reading at a time that is convenient for you. So get downloading!

Also please do let us know what you think. Any feedback to chemistryworld@rsc.org would be most welcome.

And if you are not yet an RSC member or e-member you can now join via the Chemistry World website at http://www.chemistryworld.org or on the RSC website at http://www.rsc.org/membership.

On the eleventh day of Christmas, Chemistry World brought to you, the penultimate day of the quiz. And straight in with the first question.

In January, we found out that the caffeine levels in espresso coffees purchased from many coffee shops are well above the recommended daily allowance for pregnant women set by the Food Standards Agency in the UK. What’s is this recommended daily allowance for pregnant women?

Which explosive compound would you find in small amounts in your Christmas cracker? 

And now on to the answers from yesterday’s quiz.

It was Lee Cronin‘s group at Glasgow that printed their own labware.

John Millington gave the first ever Royal Institution Christmas lecture in 1825.

See you all tomorrow for the final round!

Drum roll please! It’s the twelfth (and final) day of our topical Christmas quiz. On with the show!

In September, we learnt what the minimum number of water molecules needed to form an ice crystal was… How many was it?

Which amino acid reputedly found in high concentrations in turkey is supposedly what makes you feel like having a nap after your Christmas dinner?

Now the answers to yesterday’s quiz.

Pregnant women shouldn’t consume more than 200mg of caffeine per day. Researchers discovered that a single cup of some takeaway espressos contained more than 300mg of caffeine! You can read more here.

The explosive that you’ll find in your Christmas cracker is silver fulminate.

We’ll be back one more time tomorrow with the answers to the last questions. Thanks for following.
