ABSTRACT Jackfruit rags is a rich source of nutrients such as calcium, sodium and magnesium which help in strengthening bones and teeth in the body, and as such should not be considered as waste products white eating the fruit. The analysis of macro mineral of Jackfruit rags was carried out using Atomic Absorption spectrophotometer. From
ABSTRACT The inhibition of mild steel in 0.1M HCl solution using gravimetric method. The result obtained showed that alloxazine +KI is a good inhibitive of mild steel corrosion in HCl solution. The inhibition efficiency increased by 49% with increase in the inhibitor concentration of 10 x104MmKI. Physical absorption has been proposed for the absorption of
