Discard the water layer, which contains the aspirin or acetominophen) and evaporate the chloroform layer to dryness under gentle heat. The result is codeine base, a white crystalline powder. Combine 20 mL pyridine and 25 mL conc. HCl in a beaker and heat strongly to 190C to drive off any water.
A simple sentence usually consists of a single finite clause with a finite verb that is independent. More complex sentences may contain multiple clauses. Main clauses (i.e. matrix clauses, independent clauses) are those that can stand alone as a sentence. Subordinate clauses (i.e. embedded clauses, dependent clauses) are those that would be awkward or incomplete alone.
An independent clause can stand alone as a simple sentence while a dependent clause cannot. âI burned dinnerâ is a good example of a simple sentence/independent clause. 2) A compound sentence is one comprised of two independent clauses joined using a conjunction.
