Complications. 1  Water insoluble compounds should be dissolved in ethanol, methanol, or acetone. 2  Often, the brown precipitate fails to form and the solution turns reddish-brown. 3  Easily oxidized compounds give a positive test: a) Most aldehydes give a positive test. 4  Alcohols with trace impurities give a positive test.
Palmetto Trail. The Palmetto Trail is a planned 425-mile-long (684 km) foot and mountain bike trail in South Carolina for recreational hiking and biking. Several of the sections are also equestrian trails. It will extend from the Oconee County mountains to the Intracoastal Waterway in Charleston County.
Today, the Palmito Ranch Battlefield preserves the location of the last battle of the American Civil War. The area has remained relatively unchanged, with the marshy, windswept prairies almost the same as they were in 1865. The site is more than 5,400 acres (2,200 ha) in size, and was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1997.
