ANALYSIS OF ASPIRIN: SPECTROPHOTOMETRY The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the percent aspirin on a commercial aspirin tablet using an instrumental method‚ spectrophotometry. In a spectrophotometer‚ light from a strong lamp passes through a monochromator‚ which breaks the light into its component colors using a grating‚ then uses mirrors and slits to direct a light beam of the desired wavelength through the sample compartment‚ where you place a tube (cuvette) of solution. A detector

Synthesis of Acetylsalicylic Acid Purpose: This experiment uses the synthesized salicylic acid in Part I to prepare acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Salicylic acid itself in unsuitable as a drug because it does not taste good and it causes gastric irritation. To eliminate these unfavorable characteristics‚ salicylic acid is esterified to acetylsalicylic acid. ASA passes through the stomach unchanged before being hydrolyzed by the basic medium of the intestine to form the active compound. Procedure: The

Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to learn how to use salicylic acid to make aspirin. Aspirin is the most widely used over-the-counter drug in the world. The average tablet contains about 325 milligrams of acetylsalicylic acid with an inert binding material such as starch. Aspirin is used to relieve pain‚ reduce inflammation‚ and lower fever. Aspirin originally was derived by boiling the bark of the white willow tree. Although the salicin in willow bark has analgesic properties‚ purified

OF ASPIRIN Aspirin in general is a safe drug but the ability to prevent blood clots is connected to some side effects. Aspirin can cause firstly stomach irritation. That’s means aspirin can irritate your stomach which has as a result pain‚ nausea‚ vomiting or hearburn. Sometimes can have other symptoms like bleeding‚ holes in stomach or intestines. In order to minimize these problems it should be better to have a full stomach. Also another problem that comes from aspirin can

Aspirin or acetylsalicylate acid is a compound that is widely used in medicine. The use of aspirin in medicine began long before the active reagent was removed from its natural source. The first documented use of aspirin was found in the writings of Hippocrates‚ the so called father of medicine. Hippocrates prescribed that willow bark could be used to remedy a wide range of conditions such as pain‚ fever and inflammation. Scientists began to seek to extract the active compound from willow tree bark

In the 5th century B.C.‚ Hippocrates ground the bark into a powder‚ and later‚ the Natives Americans chewed on the bark to alleviate fever and pain1. In the 19th century‚ a German chemist by the name of Felix Hoffman wanted to find a medication that would ease
