Lattice Energy LLC - Surprising Similarities between LENR Active Sites and En...Lewis Larsen
Herein we discuss surprising similarities between the operation of micron-scale active sites in condensed matter low energy neutron reactions (LENRs) and those of biological enzyme proteins. It turns-out that radiation-free LENR electroweak nuclear catalysis and enzymatic chemical catalysis are not as distant from each other as one might naively assume.
As we have explained in our many publications, LENRs are star-like, neutron-induced nuclear transmutations that produce heavier stable elements from neutron captures on lighter ones while releasing abundant quantities of clean heat during the process.
Unlike stars, fusion, and fission reactors, LENRs do not emit any deadly MeV-energy neutron and gamma radiation. They occur in microscopic domains in laboratory devices, at very low rates in some industrial processes such as pyrolysis, as well as naturally in lightning and other places elsewhere on Earth. They are quietly happening all around us but went unrecognized by legions of scientists for over 100 years because easy-to-detect hard radiation emission signatures are absent.
Importantly, LENRs can be triggered under mild macroscopic conditions; e.g. at as little as room temperature and atmospheric pressure. This enzyme-like feat is possible with electroweak catalysis which creates ultralow-energy neutrons directly from electrons and protons (hydrogen) via many-body collective quantum effects in an electroweak reaction: e + p --> n + νe.
Fried et al.’s recent stunning experimental results (“Extreme electric fields power catalysis in the active site of ketosteroid isomerase”, Science 346 pp. 1510 - 1514, Dec. 19, 2014) revealed that a structurally and compositionally complex Carbon-based isomerase enzyme protein employs a combination of very high local electric fields and quantum entanglement of particles in active sites to achieve enormous increases in chemical reaction rates. Much simpler, abiotic LENR many-body active sites comprising Q-M entangled protons and electrons achieve even more enormous catalytic increases in rates of neutron-producing electroweak reactions using exactly the same effects. A key difference between them is field-strength: the enzyme uses electric fields averaging ~1.4 x 1010 V/m; LENRs use nonequilibrium pulses > 2.5 x 1011 V/m.
It has become apparent that deep technical knowledge about details of LENR electroweak catalysis can provide valuable insights into the operation of both enzymatic and abiotic chemical catalysis. There is an opportunity to use new types of conceptual insights to help greatly increase performance and reduce costs for a broad range of important industrial catalysts.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Introduction
Volumetric Analysis or VA is a method of finding out
the quantity of substance present in a solid or solution.
It usually involves titrating a known solution, called a
standard solution, with an unknown solution.
Based on the equation of reaction, calculations are
then made to find out the concentration of the
unknown solution.
Chapter 6
Concentration of Solutions and Volumetric Analysis
17. 17
Using a pipette
A pipette is used to deliver an exact volume, usually
25.0 cm3
of solution into a conical flask.
The solution in the titrating flask is called the titrate.
Before using a pipette, it should be washed with tap
water, then rinsed with distilled water and finally with
the liquid it is to be filled.
For safety reasons, a pipette filler is used to suck up
the solution.
To use the pipette filler, first fit it to the top of the
pipette, as shown in the diagram.
Squeeze valve 1 with right index finger and thumb
and squeeze the bulb with the left palm to expel all
the air in the bulb.
Then place the tip of the pipette below the surface of
the liquid to be sucked up, and squeeze valve 2 to
suck up the liquid.
Chapter 6
Concentration of Solutions and Volumetric Analysis
18. 18
Using a pipette
When the liquid rises to a level higher than the
mark, remove the tip of the pipette from the
liquid.
Gently squeeze valve 3 to release the liquid
slowly until the meniscus of the liquid is
exactly at the mark of the pipette.
Now place the tip of the pipette into the
titration flask, and squeeze valve 3 to release
all the liquid into the flask.
When all the liquid in the pipette has run out,
touch the tip of the pipette on the inside of the
flask so that only a drop of liquid is left inside
the tip of the pipette.
Chapter 6
Concentration of Solutions and Volumetric Analysis
19. 19
Using a burette
A burette is used to contain and measure the volume
of the liquid, called the titrant used in the titration.
Before using a burette, it should be washed first with
tap water, then rinsed with distilled water and finally
with the liquid (titrant) it is to be filled.
The liquid (titrant) in the burette must be released
slowly, a few drops at a time, into the titration flask.
The readings must be taken accurate to 0.1 cm3
. E.g.
24.0 cm3
, not 24 cm3
.
Make sure that the clip of the burette is tight and the
liquid is not leaking.
Also make sure that the burette jet is filled with
liquid, it must not contain any air bubbles.
Chapter 6
Concentration of Solutions and Volumetric Analysis
20. 20
Using a burette
The burette should be clamped
to the retort stand in a vertical
position so that the reading will
be accurate.
When reading the burette, the
eye must be horizontal to the
bottom of meniscus to avoid
parallax error. (See diagram).
Chapter 6
Concentration of Solutions and Volumetric Analysis
21. 21
Other tips on safety and accuracy
When filling or reading the burette, it should be lowered to a
suitable height. Do not attempt to read it by climbing onto a stool.
Make sure that the tip of the pipette is always kept below the
surface of the liquid when it is being filled, otherwise air bubbles
will get into the pipette.
After filling a burette, the small funnel should be removed from
the top of the burette, otherwise drops of liquid may run down into
the burette during a titration and affect the reading.
The titration flask should be placed on a white tile or paper so
that the colour of the indicator can be seen easily.
Use the wash bottle to wash down the insides of the conical
flask towards the end of the titration.

portions of hydrogen peroxide solution (H2O2) was titrated with
standard (0.020 mol/dm3
) potassium manganate(VII) solution.
Introduction:
Oxidising agents can be titrated with reducing agents. Hydrogen
peroxide is a reducing agent and can be titrated against acidified
potassium manganate(VII), an oxidising agent.
No indicator is required for this titration as potassium manganate(VII)
solution is purple in colour and is decolourised by the hydrogen
peroxide solution when the reaction is complete.

B. If 1 mole of KMnO4 reacts with 2.5 moles of H2O2,
(a) Calculate the number of moles of H2O2 that react with the KMnO4.
(b) Find the concentration of H2O2 solution.
(a) No. of moles of H2O2 = 2.5 x 0.000504 mol = 0.00126 mol
(b) Concentration = 0.00126 mol = 0.0504 mol/dm3
0.025 dm3
C. If 2 moles of H2O2 decompose during the reaction to give 1 mole of oxygen, calculate
the volume of oxygen given off during the titration.
No. of moles of O2 given off = 1 x 0.00126 mol
2
= 0.00063 mol
Therefore, Volume of O2 = 0.00063 x 24000 cm3
= 15.1 cm3
