<p>The aim of this study was to analyze students' social and emotional competencies through the integration of Think Pair Share (TPS) and a Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) approach to topics related to Ac­ids and Bases. Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults under­stand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.. The study involved  thirty-five 11th grade students in one of private school in Jakarta  and was conducted between January and April, 2017. A qualitative methodology was employed to analyze students’ social and emotional competencies using inter­views, classroom observations, reflective journals, and student worksheets. The application of a SEL ap­proach was carried out by integrating it with a TPS strategy.  In the <em>Think</em> stage students were given the opportunity to explore their understanding of acids and bases and to solve problems individually. In the<em> Pair</em> stage they could communicate their insights to the group, and in the <em>Share</em> stage they had occasion to present their group perspectives and respond to others.  The five social and emotional competences found in this study were; self awareness, self management, social awareness, relationship management, and re­sponsible decision making. Self awareness was demonstrated by understanding a student’s abilities, their needs, and their self- confidence. Self management was indicated by a student’s ability to manage pressure, plan strategies, and seek help. Social awareness competencies were analyzed through the development of students' attitudes to diversity and how they demonstrated care for friends. Relationship management com­petencies were identified by observing a student’s ability to manage friendships, how they overcame differ­ences, and whether they provided assistance to each other. The responsible decision making competency was determined by observing how students made decisions when trying to solve a problem and whether they were able to plan a strategy when facing pressure. Whilst integrating SEL the researchers were chal­lenged by the need to empower students, encourage teachers to stimulate students’ social and emotional competencies, and to manage time constraints. Integrating SEL into chemistry learning provided opportuni­ties for students to develop their social and emotional competencies through independent thinking activities, group discussions, and presentations to their peers.</p>

<p class="Default">Synthetic dyes have a high environmental impact, especially on waters. The use of natural dyes for textiles provides new hope for ecological improvement. This article is to find out the yield of water extract of white frangipani (<em>Plumeria acuminate</em>) and hibiscus (<em>Hibiscus tiliaceus</em>) leaves-powder, as well as to find out whether the water extracts have potential as textile natural dyes. Natural dyes must have a good quality of fastness. For this reason, the color fastness tests for washing with a launder meter and colorfastness against rubbing with a crock meter are performed. Colorfastness is assessed by comparing color changes to washing with grayscale and color changes due to staining on fabric with staining scale. The rubbing test is carried out on the wet and dry cloth. Cotton and polyester fabrics are samples that will be colored. Fixers used to bind dyes are Al<sub>2</sub>(SO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>, CaCO<sub>3</sub>, and FeSO<sub>4</sub>.H<sub>2</sub>O. The results show that the water extraction of hibiscus and white frangipani leaves powder gave a yield of 11% (w/w) and 27 % (w/w), respectively. The test of colorfastness against washing showed that both water extract of the white frangipani dan hibiscus leaves has a pretty good average quality in staining scale but less in grayscale. The test against rubbing shows that the type of fixer used affects the quality of the colorfastness, but in general, the water extract of white frangipani leaves gives better quality as a potential of natural dye than hibiscus leaves</p>

<p>Electricity is the most energy demanded in this era. Energy storage devices must be able to store long-term and portable. A lithium ion battery is a type of battery that has been occupied in a secondary battery market. Lithium iron phosphate / LiFePO<sub>4</sub> is a type of cathode material in ion lithium batteries that is very well known for its environmental friendliness and low prices. LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C powder can be obtained from the solid state method. In this study the variables used were the types of precursors : iron sulfate (FeSO<sub>4</sub>), iron oxalate (FeC<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub>) and FeSO<sub>4</sub>+charcoal. Synthesis of LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C powder using Li:Fe:P at 1:1:1 %mol. Based on the XRD results, LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C from FeSO<sub>4</sub>+charcoal shows the LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C peaks according to the JCPDS Card with slight impurities when compared to other precursors. XRD results of LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C with precursors of FeSO<sub>4</sub> or FeC<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> shows more impurities peaks. This LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C cathode is paired with lithium metal anode, activated by a separator, LiPF<sub>6</sub> as electrolyte. Then this arrangement is assembled become a coin cell battery. Based on the electrochemical results, Initial discharge capacity of LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C from the FeSO<sub>4</sub> precursor is 19.72 mAh/g, while LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C with the FeC<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> precursor can obtain initial discharge capacity of 17.99 mAh/g, and LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C with FeSO<sub>4</sub>+charcoal exhibit initial discharge capacity of 21.36 mAh/g. This means that the presence of charcoal helps glucose and nitrogen gas as reducing agents.</p>

<p>Absorption of atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> by the sea through two processes, namely solubility pumps and biological pumps. This study aims to determine the effect of upwelling in the southern waters of Java on atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> concentrations in Kototabang. The data used are in situ CO<sub>2</sub> concentration, sea surface temperature and chlorophyll-a concentration from 2004-2016. The method used was descriptive analysis. The results showed that upwelling that occurred during JJA-SON caused a decrease in sea surface temperature to 26.8 °C and 27.1 °C respectively, as well as an increase chlorophyll-a concentration to 2.03 mg/m<sup>3</sup> and 2.19 mg/m<sup>3</sup>. In both seasons CO<sub>2</sub> concentration in Kototabang dropped to 385.8 ppm and 385.4 ppm. Meanwhile, when there was no upwelling during DJF-MAM, sea surface temperatures rose to 28.8 °C and 29.0 °C, and chlorophyll-a concentration dropped to 0.32 mg/m<sup>3</sup> and 0.54 mg/m<sup>3</sup>. CO<sub>2</sub> concentration in DJF and MAM increased to 386.3 ppm and 386.5 ppm. Based on these results it is known that when upwelling occurs, CO<sub>2</sub> concentration decrease and vice versa.</p>

<p>This study aims to model the derived compounds of 1,2,3-triazolopiperidine using sem­iempirical method AM1 and determine the further derivation with the better IC<sub>50</sub> values against DPP-4 enzyme theoretically. This research employed ChemDraw Pro 12 software for for 2D struc­tural drawing, Hyperchem 8.0 for 3D modelling, and MLR statistical analysis for modeling QSAR equations. The semiempirical method was likely to be the appropriate platform to apply because the correlation coefficient of H<sup>1 </sup>NMR chemical shift between theoretical and actual value is rela­tively close, 0.8891. The multilinear regression analysis produced 4 equation models where the best one is equation 4 as detailed below:” IC<sub>50</sub>   = 875,5116 + (-7400,27*qH35) + (-0,00133* Eat.is) + (-3230,72* qN23) + (3,30277* µ)” n = 25; r<sup>2</sup> = 0,594; <em>Adjusted r<sup>2</sup></em>= 0,486; PRESS = 1,2× 10<sup>4</sup><sup>. </sup>Finally, the theoretically promising substituent was -CN possessing IC<sub>50</sub> value = 1.61 nM. </p>
