is green‚ when an alcohol is oxidized by the reagent. A change in color of the reagent from orange to green represents a positive test. Primary alcohols are oxidized by the reagent to carboxylic aicds; secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones. Tertiary alcohols are not oxidized at all by the reagent. Hence‚ this reaction can be used to distinguish tertiary alcohols form primary and secondary alcohols. Procedures: 1. Place ethanol‚ isopropyl alcohol and tert-butyl alcohol in three different

Doctors usually “use a simple blood test to detect lead poisoning” ("Lead Poisoning‚” Mayo Clinic). A small amount of blood is taken from a vein or a prick of one finger. The lead levels in the blood are tested and measured in micrograms per deciliter. Low level in adults are not concerning‚ but they can cause concern in small children ("Lead Poisoning‚” Healthline). “Normal” amounts of lead are different depending on the age of a person. In an adult‚

When the word alcohol is brought up‚ what do you think about? What comes to my mind is parties‚ and what people think they have to drink to have fun. Did you know that over 5‚000 people under the age of 21 die each year from alcohol-related car crashes‚ suicides‚ homicides‚ alcohol poisoning‚ and other injuries such as falls‚ burns‚ and drowning? Alcohol can be a very dangerous substance if not treated correctly and drank responsibly. Alcohol is a form of a drug but unlike the other drug‚ marijuana

One of their newest discoveries is that very low levels of lead‚ once thought to be harmless‚ can be damaging over long periods of time. Even though a child seems healthy‚ he or she may have enough lead in the blood to cause chronic lead poisoning. In the late 1970s‚ the researchers found that even a small amount of lead that is absorbed in the body‚ although absorption doesn’t cause physical illness could still harm a child’s nervous systems and brain. Lead is a true poison that has no

These high levels of lead are toxic and can cause lead poisoning for all of their residents. Lead poisoning can affect pregnant women‚ unborn fetuses‚ and children the most due to them having a lower immune system. Lead is a heavy metal element that can

________________________________________ Absorption Alcohol is absorbed from all parts of the gastrointestinal tract largely by simple diffusion into the blood. However the small intestine is by far the most efficient region of the gastrointestinal tract for alcohol absorption because of its very large surface area. In a fasting individual‚ it is generally agreed that 10% to 20% of a dose of alcohol is absorbed from the stomach (the volume of alcohol affects the absorption) and 75% to 80% is absorbed

Lab 5 Oxidation of an alcohol CHM2123 Introduction: Oxidation is a key reaction in organic chemistry. Oxidation of an alcohol can produce aldehydes‚ ketones‚ or carboxylic acids. One of the methods of oxidation is an aldol reaction through carbon-carbon bonds. The oxidation oxidizes primary alcohols to aldehydes and secondary alcohols oxidizes ketones. Tertiary alcohols are converted to the common oxidizing agents. Scheme 5.1: Aldehydes can be oxidized easily to carboxylic acids in aqueous medias

Properties of Alcohols and Phenols Experiment #3 Objectives: To observe the solubility of alcohols relative to their chemical structure‚ to perform chemical tests to distinguish primary‚ secondary and tertiary alcohols‚ and a color test for phenol. Introduction The general formula of an alcohol is ROH in which the R is an aliphatic hydrocarbon group. Alcohols may be looked upon as derivatives of water‚ HOH. One hydrogen of water is substituted by an alkyl group‚ R. Like water‚ alcohols show hydrogen
