Nor Amirah Farhana Nawawi‚ Mia Organic Chemistry Lab Report 2 Jessica Sammons TITLE: Preparation of 2-butanone INTRODUCTION: The goal of this experiment was to prepare 2-butanone from 2-butanol. Chromic acid was used in this experiment to in order to prepare 2-butanol. Cr (VI) is rather orange‚ but Cr (III) is dark green - therefore by oxidizing the alcohol (2-butanol)‚ an orange Cr (IV) is reduced to green. NMR and IR tests were taken to determine the result‚ and the crystallized derivative of

Introduction Reduction/Oxidation (Redox) reactions are ones that change the oxidation state of a compound. The oxidation state refers to the acquired charge (gained or lost electrons) of an element in relation to its original charge (i.e. S + 2e- S2+); in a compound‚ the overall oxidation state is calculated by adding all the charges of the elements present. The addition of electrons makes the element “reduced” and the loss of electrons is called “oxidized”. These reactions can be carried out

It must be noted that the actual undertaken procedure included a few differences from the ideal protocol. A total of 7 ml of extra water was added to the reaction before it was treated in the separatory funnel due to there being so much white precipitate that the mixture had turned to a paste as opposed to a liquid. The aqueous layer was accidentally not drained between adding the two different ether fractions‚ so the aqueous layer was drained after that and 10 ml of extra diethyl ether were added

Biochemistry- The Basics An Atom is the basic unit of a chemical element ( smallest unit for measuring chemical & physical properties) Smallest particle of an element is an atom A Particle is a small portion of matter Matter is composed of elements___ Matter makes up everything in the universe. An Element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler substance. ex. carbon‚ hydrogen‚ etc A molecule is a group of atoms bounded together ex O2 A chemical compound

Exp 23 B Synthesis of t-Pentyl Chloride 11-8-12 Purpose: The sysnthesis of t-Pentyl Chloride from alcohol. Procedure: Preparation of t-Pentyl Chloride. In a 125-mL separatory funnel‚ place 10.0 mL of t-pentyl alcohol (2-methyl-2-butanol‚ MW _ 88.2‚ d _ 0.805 g/mL) and 25 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid (d _ 1.18 g/mL). Do not stopper the funnel. Gently swirl the mixture in the separatory funnel for about 1 minute. After this period of swirling‚ stopper the separatory funnel and
