The molecule responsible for the action is lawsone, otherwise known as Xtonic acid (2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone).

The acid in lemon juice serves to destabilize the plant’s cellulose while allowing the lawsone molecules to remain intact. The lemon juice attacks the lawsone molecule to create a unified acidic substance.

Lawsone is a relatively small molecule, migrates to the site of action quickly and undergoes Michaels’ addition.

Lawsone is found in which commonly used plant extract?

Henna or mehendi

The Five Fists of Science is a graphic novel showing X, his (real-life) friend Mark Twain and Bertha Von Stuttner combine forces to try to bring about world peace through superior firepower. They are soon confronted by dark forces led by the dastardly Y (X’s real life arch rival), John Pierpont Morgan, Andrew Carnegie and Guglieimo Marconi. The protagonists are shown on the cover.

ID X and Y

X- Nikola Tesla Y- Thomas Alva Edison

What connects them? Who is missing from the exhaustive list?

All are double winners of the Nobel prize Linus Pauling (Chemistry and Peace)

The name X comes from the Spanish word chafer beetle. The species name for this organism origianted from the fact that there were a lot of these found in the United States, however the US ships carried these organisms to other parts of the world and now they are found all over the world but almost non existent in the US.

Which organism ?

David Saltzberg is a professor of Physics and Astronomy at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Saltzberg earned a bachelor's degree in physics in 1989 from Princeton University and a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Chicago in 1994. From 1995-97 he worked at CERN in Switzerland.

His research interests include high-energy collider physics and the radio detection of cosmic neutrinos.

Now, however he does something very different. What does he do?

He is the technical director of The Big Bang Theory. He writes the formulae and equations on the whiteboards on the sets.

Ammonium ferric citrate and potassium ferricyanide coated on paper or cloth was used to reproduce images. The result is a copy of the original image with a clear background area rendered dark and the image itself produced as a white line, making it difficult to alter or add new information to the document.

Which commonly used word is derived from this now obsolete technology?

Blueprint

Later epicondylitis is a condition in which the outer part of the Y becomes sore and tender.

Most of the names for this disease are misnomers: X Y is a misnomer because most people that get the disease don’t have anything to do with X and lateral epicondylitisis a misnomer because the patho-physiology does not involve inflammation (it is an –osis, not an –itis).

Tennis Elbow

The term originated during the development of the IBM OS/2 operating system at Lattice Inc, the makers of early Windows & OS/2 compilers. Developers encountered the error screen when the bugs in the OS software(typically null pointers) slipped through the net during beta testing. The term comes as a humorous reference to IBM and the finality of the error.

Which term ?
