Abstract
This paper looks at the techniques used by a forensic toxicologists, particularly when looking for drugs in the body postmortem. It looks at what factors have to be considered which change drug levels after death. The paper also looks at how blood alcohol levels are tested when drunk driving is suspected.
From the Paper
"Forensic toxicology is a specialty area of analytical chemistry. Forensic Toxicology is the science of the adverse effects of chemicals on living organisms and a toxicologist detects and identifies foreign chemicals in the body in particular toxic or hazardous substances. Forensic toxicologist usually receive samples for analysis as preserved samples of body fluids stomach contents and body parts. They have access to coroner's reports which will give them any signs and symptoms and postmortem data that may be helpful. Because most substances entering the body are changed..."

Abstract
This paper covers the following six topics: 1. identity determined from density. 2. changes of speed and motion of molecules with state change. 3. theory of structure of atom. 4. periodic table vs alphabetical listing of elements. 5. mass nos, moles. 6. Henry's law.
From the Paper
"Density can be used to identify a substance. It could be used to determine if a sample of gold-colored metal is in fact gold. Archimedes used the concept of density to identify substances. Density is a physical property of a substance which describes the degree of compactness of the substance, i.e., how close together the atoms are packed. The density of a substance is the ratio of an object's mass to its volume."
