Sublimation of Vanillin and O-Vanillin
Experiment
In this experiment a high vacuum sublimation was performed to determine the vapor pressure and finally the enthalpy of sublimation of Vanillin and o-Vanillin. AKnudsen cell with sample was weighed 10 times maybe just say weighed by difference, they don’t usually like it when you spell out the steps like that no way it was like 0.5 grams, check the lab again and at least 0.5 g of Vanillin or o-Vanillin was added to the cell and it was reweighed 10 times. This experiment depended heavily on the method of weigh by difference when determining the mass of sample (Vanillin or o-Vanillin) loss in sublimation. A water bath (70 °C for vanillin or 40 °C for o-Vanillin) is prepared for the sample. The Knudsen cell was inserted into the sample tube and the closed end of the sample tube was placed into the prepared water bath. The tube with the O-ring was connected to the sublimation apparatus. The diffusion pump was connected to the water supply and turned on to 90 V. The cold trap of the apparatus was filled with Liquid nitrogen every hour of the experiment. Maybe talk about the type of vacuum pump used since there was so much about it in the lab manual
After the sample had reached and sustained the desired temperature for about 5 minutes the sublimation region was roughed.. Just say that you roughed, they don’t usually like this step by step stuff with the valves, but I do like that talk about the pressures that we reached The time between the opening of valve 1 and 3 was the uncertainty in total time. The sublimation apparatus was place under high vacuum to initiate the sublimation process. After making sure the exhaust region pressure did not rapidly increase the temperature of the water bath was recorded every couple of minutes until only 15 minutes were left in the laboratory. This experiment was repeated for a 2nd trial with the only change being the water bath ( 55 °C for Vanillin or 30 °C for o-Vanillin). Need degree signs

    In this experiment, the molecular weight of a condensed vapor was found through a procedure using an unknown liquid. The flask before adding the unknown liquid in was full of air. After the beaker full of water started to boil the flask was examined until the unknown liquid was completely vaporized. At that exact point the flask contained all vapor. At the final weighing the flask contained condensed vapor and air. There is always a chance for error. Some sources of error could have come with completing this lab over an open water bath and some water vapor may have been in place. Also, too much vapor could have escaped and the experiment might not have been stopped quick…

    A way to relate this to the real world is that people could use the concept of osmosis to make more accurate administering IVs to put into patients in hospitals. Osmosis is extraordinarily important in the biological processes where the solvent is water. This transport of water and molecules across the membranes is essential to many processes in living organisms and keeping them healthy. In general, this experiment helped understand the different ways osmosis works and how concentration can change the weight of…

    2 mL of dichloromethane was added to the test tube and then stirred for two minutes. The test tube was then centrifuged for 30 seconds making sure that another test tube equal in volume was placed across from it. A micro pipet removed the liquid above the solid after the test tube was done being centrifuged. The decantate was dispensed into the previously weighed watch glass. The previous steps were then repeated two more times. The watch glass with the decantate was placed to the back of the mini hood so the solvent could evaporate. After half of the solvent was evaporated, the watch glass was then moved to the drying oven. Once the solvent was completely evaporated and cooled, it was weighed and recorded.…

    Background: The science behind this experiment is that we know that water has a melting point at 0C and a boiling point at 100C. The first part of the graph is the ice changing temperatures from -.2C to 0C. That part of the graph is modeled by MCΔT. The second part of the graph is the ice changing to water. This part of the graph is modeled by MKFusion. The third part of the graph is the water now increasing temperature and going from 0C to 100C. This part of the graph is modeled by MCΔT. The fourth part of the graph is the water changing from a liquid to gas and the graph levels off showing. This part of the graph is modeled by MKVaporization.…
