lab‚ caproic acid was synthesized in a multi-step process that involved the synthesis of three intermediates – diethyl n-butylmalonate‚ potassium n-butylmalonate‚ and n-butyl malonic acid respectively. An IR was used to characterize the starting material‚ n-bromobutane‚ and the first intermediate‚ diethyl n-butylmalonate; while IR and NMR were used to characterize the final product‚ caproic acid. Reactions‚ Mechanism and Theory Caproic acid a.k.a n-hexanoic acid is a carboxylic acid derived from

A buffer is an aqueous solution that allows resistance to significant change in pH when small amounts of strong acids or base are added to it. (Boundless‚ 2015) This is usually formed when a weak acid is added to a salt of its conjugate base. (Chemicool.com‚ 2014) When an Alka Seltzer tablet is dissolved in water‚ a buffer is formed when the weak acid citric acid is present with sodium citrate (citrate ion) the conjugate base (Buffer Balancing Acts Buffers‚ 2009) "Na3C3H5O7 (aq) + 3 HCl (aq)

The acid-base titration curves help to find the pKa‚ Ka‚ and pH at equivalent point. At the beginning pH for HCl is 1.90 which is lower than the 3.28 for acetic acid; thus‚ strong acid (HCl) means lower pH and weak acid (acetic acid) means higher pH. Then at the equivalent point for the titration HCl-NaOH the pH is 7‚ which mans that is neutral‚ in other words there are enough NaOH mmol to neutralize the HCl mmol present; also‚ the solution contains only water and NaCl the salt derived from the titration

Abstract The experiment allowed students to explore different electrolytes and classify them into acids‚ bases and salts by using different indicators or by measuring the pH levels of each. The experiment also helped students classify different substances through their conductivity properties. The preparation of a 1 M stock solution from NaOH pellets diluted to a

Trimyrisitin to Sodium Myristate to Myrisitic Acid Mandy Boyle Chem 213‚ Section 002 Due Date: December 3‚ 2009 I. Introduction People encounter esters everyday in both natural and synthesized forms. Esters are present in a variety of common compounds‚ from fragrances to animal fat (McMurry‚ 2008). Although these esters can undergo many different important reactions‚ this lab is particularly interested in the hydrolysis of esters into carboxylic acids and alcohols. Companies such as Dove‚ Palmolive

2013 Wine to Water Paper Almost everyone goes through a new transition in their lives; many experience a new challenge‚ a new journey‚ and new friends. The transition is not easy and many struggle to fit into a strange environment. We all have that feeling of shock and nervousness when entering in a whole different world or society. It is nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed of it is a common emotion that human face when facing new obstacles. Doc Hendley‚ founder of Wine to Water

acidification is the build up of hydrogen ions(H+)‚ reducing the pH‚ therefore the soil becomes too acidic. The donor can be an acid‚ such as nitric acid and sulfuric acid.The addition of the acids can be due to acid rain and pollution. Many nitrogen compounds‚ which are added as fertilizer‚ also acidify soil over the long term because they produce nitrous and nitric acid when oxidized in the process of nitrification. Acidification also occurs when base cations such as calcium‚ magnesium‚ potassium

The Spouted Ritual Wine Vessel The era of the Shang(ca. 1600-1050 B.C) and the Zhou (ca. 1046-256 B.C.) dynasties is generally known as the Bronze Age of China. During this period of time‚ bronze vessels were the most highly esteemed objects. In addition to their functional and symbolic role‚ these bronzes also exemplified the latest technical and artistic developments of their historic stage. Early bronze vessel‚ including the jue‚ gu‚ and ding‚ were mostly based on Neolithic pottery styles
