What are productions of aspartame?
The products of aspartame are aspartic acid, phenylalanine, and methanol.
What happens when beverages containing aspartame are stored at warm temperatures for prolonged periods?
methanol is produced.
What is the final percent concentration of the solution when 600 ml of 100 percent methanol added to 4400 ml of water?
13.6% methanol solution.
Does diet soda contain arsenic?
They're filled with artificial sweeteners which are terrible for you. Aspartame is filled with neurotoxins and sucralose has methanol and arsenic
Is that 50 percent methanol damage membranes more or 25 percent acetone?
50% methanol will damage the membrane more than 25% acetone. we did the lab.
What was Edward M Ted Kennedy alcoholic drink of choice?
don't know his alcohol beverage of choice, but i bet the mixer he used was diet soda.. loaded with aspartame & turned into 20 mg of methyl alcohol/methanol & now is the #1 cause of seizures & brain tumors..ever since aspartame was approved in 1981 with much help by one Donald Rumsfeld that said "he would call in all his makers to get the pioison "aspartame" approved.. even over the objections of most FDA scientists who did the tests on it..actually aspartame was originally going to be used by the military as a bio weapon....aspartame was originally not approved by FDA scientists..ALL 20 monkeys used in early asparrtame tests ALL GOT BRAIN TUMORS.. the body quickly turns aspartame into methanol /methyl alcohol the methanol is then quickly converted into the poison formaldahyde in the body [formaldahyde is great for embalming dead bodies but not very good for living,breathing bodies]
What is the percent by volume of 25 ml of methanol in 75 ml of water?
With 25ml methanol and 75ml water, there is 100ml in total. So there is 25/100 = 25% by volume methanol.
How many drinks containing Aspartame can you safely consume each day?
If you have been tested and found to NOT be phenylketonuric, go for it. If you ARE phenylketonuric, any amount of aspartame can cause serious problems. Laws in most states require that infants be tested for phenylketonurea before they are allowed out of the hospital. If you were born in a hospital, you have been tested. If you have eaten a banana and not gone into siezures or suffered serious brain damage, you are NOT phenylketonuric and you could safely consue the amount of aspartame that is in 12 diet cokes every day. On the other hand, you SHOULD be concerned with the phosphoric acid and some of the other chemicals that are in soft drinks, and restrict your intake of them. === === Note: This information required a Freedom Of Information Act request to pry it from the reluctant hands of the FDA. Nutrasweet (brand name for Aspartame) was not approved until 1981, in dry foods. For over eight years the FDA refused to approve it because of the seizures and brain tumors this drug produced in lab animals. The FDA continued to refuse to approve it until President Reagan took office (a friend of Searle) and fired the FDA Commissioner who wouldn't approve it. Dr. Arthur Hull Hayes was appointed as commissioner. Even then there was so much opposition to approval that a Board of Inquiry was set up. The Board said: "Do not approve aspartame". Dr. Hayes OVERRULED his own Board of Inquiry. Shortly after Commissioner Arthur Hull Hayes, Jr., approved the use of aspartame in carbonated beverages, he left for a position with G.D. Searle's Public Relations firm. Long-Term Damage. It appears to cause slow, silent damage in those unfortunate enough to not have immediate reactions and a reason to avoid it. It may take one year, five years, 10 years, or 40 years, but it seems to cause some reversible and some irreversible changes in health over long-term use. METHANOL (AKA WOOD ALCOHOL/POISON) (10% OF ASPARTAME) Methanol/wood alcohol is a deadly poison. People may recall that methanol was the poison that has caused some "skid row" alcoholics to end up blind or dead. Methanol is gradually released in the small intestine when the methyl group of aspartame encounter the enzyme chymotrypsin. The absorption of methanol into the body is sped up considerably when free methanol is ingested. Free methanol is created from aspartame when it is heated to above 86 Fahrenheit (30 Centigrade). This would occur when aspartame-containing product is improperly stored or when it is heated (e.g., as part of a "food" product such as Jello). Methanol breaks down into formic acid and formaldehyde in the body. Formaldehyde is a deadly neurotoxin. An EPA assessment of methanol states that methanol "is considered a cumulative poison due to the low rate of excretion once it is absorbed. In the body, methanol is oxidized to formaldehyde and formic acid; both of these metabolites are toxic." The recommend a limit of consumption of 7.8 mg/day. A one-liter (approx. 1 quart) aspartame-sweetened beverage contains about 56 mg of methanol. Heavy users of aspartame-containing products consume as much as 250 mg of methanol daily or 32 times the EPA limit. See the nearby links for an official FDA view and an independent assessment.
What happens if sodium methoxide 25 percent in methanol reacts with water?
The sodium methoxide reacts with the water to produce sodium hydroxide an methanol.
Do methanol kill bacteria?
Yes, methanol does kill bacteria, especially if it is 70 percent or more, this allows penetration of the cell wall of the organism.
What is the percent volume of 25 mL of methanol in 75 mL of water?
25%
What percent alcohol is methylated spirits?
94% Ethanol 5% methanol 1% other
