(which will be known through parallel chemical tests). Three tests‚ nitration test‚ bromine test and basic oxidation test were conducted to fully differentiate each type of hydrocarbon from one another. Nitration tests resulted to three positive outcomes and two negative outcomes. A positive outcome in the nitration test shows that the hydrocarbon is aromatic while a negative outcome is aliphatic. In the bromine test‚ the results showed that there is one saturated aliphatic while the other is unsaturated

The Chemistry of Lipids Experiment #8 Objective To observe the solubility of lipids in polar and nonpolar solvents and to compare saturated and unsaturated fats in their chemical reaction with bromine. The percent fat in a food will be determined by extraction of the fat and weighing it. Introduction Lipids‚ by definition‚ are natural substances that do not mix with water but dissolve in organic solvents. There are several classes of lipids‚ including: fatty acids‚ waxes‚ triacylglycerols

plates. If the positive metal ions in the solutions are less powerful reducing agents‚ then the metal in the plate will be reduced and hence form a deposition of solid metal. e.g. Zn + Pb2+-> Zn2+ + Pb EXPERIMENT 2: Aim: To range the halogens bromine‚ chlorine and iodine‚ with the strongest oxidising agent first. Hypothesis: A strong oxidising agent is a species that easily gains electrons‚ and is hence easily reduced. The ionisation energy of the halogens (Cl2‚ I2‚ Br2) decreases down the group

Q. 1. During the electrolysis of molten lead bromide‚ which of the following takes place : A : Bromine is released at the cathode. B: Lead is deposited at the anode. C : Bromine ions gain electrons. D: Lead is deposited at the cathode. Ans : - D. Q. 2. Here is an electrode reaction : Cu → Cu2+ + 2e-. [i.e. Cu- 2e- →Cu2+]. At which electrode(anode or cathode) would such a reaction take place. Is this an example of oxidation or reduction. Ans : - At anode. Oxidation. Q. 3. A solution contains

For 15-20 minutes‚ stir the reaction mixture at room temperature so that the reddish-orange coloration will fade and a solid precipitate will form. 7. Return to the hood and add a few more drops of the bromine solution in the hood if all the coloration fades. 8. Once the reaction is complete‚ return to

Anions I had to go through a series of tests to find out which Anion was present. From all the tests I found out that the test for bromine halide worked and the test for sulphate also worked. Conclusion In conclusion I found out that the ions present in my sample where sodium‚ sulphate and bromine. The Cation was sodium and the Anions where sulphur and bromine this means that my sample was sodium sulphate or sodium bromide. Evaluation My experiment went very well but if I could redo this

The E2 reaction performed began by dehydrohalogenating the 3-chloro-3‚ 7-dimethyloctane with potassium hydroxide in aqueous ethanol. The 3-chloro-3‚ 7-dimethyloctane will lose a hydrogen from three different carbons that cause the formation of three constitutional isomers. If the hydroxide ion attacks a hydrogen on the 3-methyl carbon‚ then 2-ethyl-6-methyl-1-heptene will be the product. If a hydrogen on the carbon-2 was attacked‚ then the product would be 3‚ 7-dimethyl-2-octene. If a hydrogen was

agent to ensure that pure cyclohexene was obtained‚ calcium chloride works by binding itself to the water molecule thus removing it in the process. After the dehydrating process was completed‚ a few tests using Potassium Permanganate solution and Bromine which were purple and Reddish-Orange respectively was conducted. The tests showed a positive result which indicated that the product was indeed pure cyclohexene. As a result of this‚ it was concluded that the activity was indeed a success as cyclohexene

alkenes Aim: To compare the reactivities of an alkane and an alkene with bromine water and a solution of potassium permanganate (KMnO4). Equipment: • 4 test tubes • Test-tube rack • 4 pipettes Safety: safety glasses must be worn to prevent injury to the eyes. Ensure room is well ventilated whilst using the hydro carbons. Method: 1. Place 1 ml of sample A (cyclohexane) into a test tube containing 4 mls of the bromine water solution. Record observations of any reaction. 2. Place 1 ml of sample

place during this reaction. Introduction: One of the common ways of preparing an alkene is through the dehydration of an alcohol. In this experiment cyclohexanol is dehydrated to prepare cyclohexene while using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. A bromine test can be later done to ensure that the end product is an alkene. Procedure: The procedure given on pages 24-25 in the CH102 Lab Manual 2012 was followed with a few modifications as follows. Steps 6 and 7 were interchanged‚ that is‚ first 10cm³
