The production of N,N-butyl-d.-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (BMP Tf2N, an ionic liquid) was desired to study the quenching of lanthanide fluorescence in this ionic liquid. Three steps to the ionic liquid were optimized with non-deuterated reactants. First, 1-methylpyrrolidine was quaternized with 1-bromobutane by an SN2reaction. Cation HPLC was used to determine percent conversion with yields >93%. Second, BMP Br was recrystallized using acetonitrile/ethyl acetate with yields >95%. Third, the anion was exchanged by mixing aqueous Li Tf2N and aqueous BMP Br producing the colorless BMP Tf2N as a separate layer with yields >95%. 'H and 13CNMR verified production of the ionic liquid. Nine extractions with 10:1 (v/v) water:ionic liquid were required to reduce bromide concentration in the aqueous phase below the anion HPLC detection limit of 1.6 ppm. A similar synthesis using perdeuterobutyl bromide proceeded smoothly producing a colorless ionic liquid with an overall 80% yield.

Presence of high percentage of exchangeable sodium in soils produced alkali conditions- high pH and poor soil structure. Reclamation of such soils involves the use of gypsum in the form of powder. A useful and rough measure of exchangeable Ca (plus Mg) in soils and the amounts of gypsum required to replace the sodium as an initial step in soil reclamation consists of adding a given amount of saturated solution of gypsum to a weighed amount of soil and by versenate titration, determining the combined Ca and Mg left in solution at equilibrium. The amount of Ca adsorbed by the soil (initial Ca in solution – Ca +Mg in solution after equilibration with soil) is a measure of the gypsum requirement of the soil.
Distillery Wastewater Decontamination by the Fenton Advanced Oxidation MethodIJRES Journal
This study evaluated the effect of Fenton advanced oxidation process on the treatment of an industrial wastewater (distillery). The comparison of the effects of Fe2+ loadings, H2O2 dosages (2%(v/v)and 4%(v/v)), reaction temperature and reaction time, established optimum efficiency in terms of BOD and COD reductions. The best operating conditions for the treatment of the distillery wastewater containing 43.85 mg/L BOD concentration and 274.28 mg/L COD concentration in the raw effluent was 2% H2O2 dosage at constant loadings of Fe2+ (1.5 g), 80 oC pretreatment temperature, and 1 h reaction time. At this optimized condition, the BOD content reduced to about 35 mg/L (about 21% removal) and COD content reduced to about 53 mg/L (about 81% removal). There was a complete removal of the initial colour present in the wastewater after the treatment process. The process proved the ability to effectively reduce the COD content which when high in industrial wastewaters can lead to serious impacts to the environment.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

Classification Of Soil Water
3. Lime Requirement
The lime requirement (LR) of an acid soil is the amount of lime or other base
required to neutralize the acidity (both dissociated and undis- sociated) from the
initial acid condition to a selected less acid condition.
Principle:
In this method the soil is equilibrated with a pH 7.5 buffer solutions, whereby the reserve H is brought into
solution, which results in the depression of pH of the buffer solution, a note of which is made and
interpreted in terms of lime required to raise the pH to a desired value.
Reagents:
Extract ant buffer : Dissolve 1.8 g paranitrophenol, 3 g potassium chromate, 2g calcium acetate, 53.1 g
calcium chloride dehydrate (CaCl . 2H O) and 2.5 mLtriethanolamine in I liter of distilled water. Adjust the
pH to 7.5 with NaOH
4. Procedure:
● Determine the pH of soil sample in 1:2.5 soil water ratios.
● For this weigh 10 g soil and add 25 mLdistilled water.
● Shake intermittently for half an hour and record the soil pH exceeds 6.0 then
this method is not applicable.
● If the measured pH is 6.0 or low then proceed as follows: Weigh 5 g soil in a
50 mLbeaker.
● Add to it 5 mLof distilled water and 10 mLbuffer solution.
● Stir continuously for 10 minutes or intermittently for 20 minutes.
● Determine the soil pH with the pH meter.
● Lime requirement is determined on the basis of soil - buffer pH
5. pH
Introduction:
The pH value is a measure of the hydrogen ion activity of the soil water and
expresses the acidity and alkalinity of the soil. The concept of pH was first
introduced by the Sorensen at the Carlsberg (1909).
Definition:
•It is the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration.
pH = -log [H+]
•PH is a unit of measure which describes the degree of acidity or alkalinity (basic)
of a solution.
Reagent:
•Buffer solution – 4 , 7 , 9.2 .
•Buffer solution required for calibration of pH meter may be of pH 4 and in other
ranges of expected soil pH values.
6. Procedure:
Take 10gm of soil in a 50 ml beaker
Add 40ml of distilled water and stir the suspension intermittently with glass rod for 30
min
Standardize the pH meter by using a buffer solution having 4 , 7 , 9.2 , pH wash the
electrode with a jet of water.
Insert the electrode in to the soil suspension and record the pH value
Remove the electrode from soil suspension and wash the adhering soil particles on
the electrode with a fine jet of water, wipe the electrode with tissue paper or muslin
cloth and processed for next sample.
7. Results: p H = 6.8 .
Electrical Conductivity
Introduction:
Specific EC of a solution is directly related to its ion content. It is measured with a
conductivity cell and expressed in Millimhos or Millisiemens (mS) per cm or ds m-1(
desi siemens per meter). Conductivity cell shows individual deviation, hence it is
necessary to calibrate the conductivity meter before use. The calibration of the conductivity
meter is made with 0.01 N KCL solution.
Principle:
The determination of EC is made with a conductivity cell by measuring the electrical
resistance of a 1:2.5 (soil : water) suspension.
Reagent:
Potassium chloride solution : Dissolve 0.7456 g of dry potassium chloride in distilled water
and made the volume up to one litre, At 25°c it gives an EC of 1.41 mmhos/cm the
conductivity meter is to be calibrated and cell constant determined with the help of this
solution.
8. Procedure:
Take 10 g of the soil in 25 ml beaker
Add 40 ml of distilled water and stir the suspension intermittently for half
an hour and keep it 30min without touch
Insert the conductivity cell in suspension solution and note the EC of the
sample
Wash the conductivity call using a fine jet of water
Result: EC = 0.32 ds/cm.
9. ORGANIC CARBON
Walkley and Black method –
The organic matter plays an important role in supplying nutrients to the plants and also by
providing good physical conditions to the soil system. This method estimates the organic
carbon of the soil to the extent of 77% of the total quantity of organic carbon through
oxidation and hence , to get the total amount of organic carbon, the per cent organic carbon
is multiplied by factor (correction in factor 100/77). The soil organic matter present in soil the
value is multiplied by van bemjmelen factor i.e. 1.724. Recently Broadbent (1953) suggested
1.9 and 2.9 and 2.5 as a multiplying factor for surface and sub surface soil respectively to
convert percentage of organic carbon to organic matter.
Principle –
•The soil organic carbon (humus), which contains about 48 to 58% organic carbon, is
oxidized by chromic acid utilizing the heat of dilution of salphuric acid.
•The unrelated chromic acid is determined by back titration with standard ferrous ammonium
sulphate solution using diphenylamine/ferroin as an indicator.
10. Procedure :
Take 1g soil in 500ml conical flask
Add 10ml of 1N Potassium dichromate and swirl little
