used as fuel in combustion engines. It is made of over 250 types of hydrocarbons. Aromatic hydrocarbons like toluene and benzene are used to increase the octane rating of gasoline. Other additives are also added to improve engine performance and reduce the emission of harmful gasses formed as byproducts of the combustion process. Some hydrocarbons found in gasoline like benzene are carcinogenic. These hydrocarbons escape into the air around us while we are refilling petrol at a gas station. They

pure is by recrystallization. This experiment includes the determination of a good solvent for recrystallization for compounds such as: acetanilide‚ acetamide‚ aspirin‚ benzoic acid‚ naphthalene‚ and sucrose‚ for solvents such as: water‚ ethanol‚ benzene‚ and ethyl acetate. Also pure acetanilide is achieved. here are five major steps in the recrystallization process: dissolving the solute in the solvent‚ performing a gravity filtration‚ if necessary‚ obtaining crystals of the solute‚ collecting the

Engineering Chemistry III Prof. K. M. Muraleedharan Aromatic electrophilic substitution (Ar-SE) Reactions The special reactivity of aromatic systems towards electrophiles arises mainly from two factors: the presence of π electron density above and below the plane of the ring - making it nucleophilic‚ and the drive to regain the aromatic character by opting for substitution as opposed to a simple addition reaction. Preference towards addition reactions in the case of alkenes and substitution

observed to have a plastic like odor. Miscibility test shows that all of the organic compounds are immiscible and all are flammable. Tests for active unsaturation indicate that hexane‚ heptane‚ cyclohexane‚ benzene and toluene are saturated while cyclohexene is actively unsaturated. Hexane‚ heptane‚ benzene‚ and toluene are classified as aliphatic while cyclohexane‚ and cyclohexene are aromatic. All are not oxidized except for cyclohexene. I. Introduction Hydrocarbons are

2-(2‚4-Dinitrobenzyl) pyridine Peter Defnet and Cody Krepps Department of Chemstry Juniata College Huntingdon‚ PA September 18‚ 2012 Abstract: Nitration of 2-benzylpyridine is supposed to yield 2-(2‚4-Dinitrobenzyl) pyridine‚ when electrophilic aromatic substitution is the mechanism. Experiencing many pitfalls‚ however‚ has lead to the actual product obtained to contain the expected product‚ as well as many impurities. This report examines the supposed mechanism for the electrophilic substitution

DETERMINATION OF THE HEAT OF SOLUTION BY THE VANT HOFF ISOCHORE METHOD Jan Vincent Arafiles‚ Merry Joy Arzaga‚ Anne Louise Ayson‚ Lovely Jenny Buenaflor Group 2 3A-Biochemistry chem401 laboratory ABSTRACT Thermodynamic values can be determined using the Vant Hoff isochore method. This method entails the use of equilibrium systems to determine the change in enthalpy of the solution‚ which can b related to the change in internal energy of the solution. The van ’t Hoff isochore relates

Introduction: Stillnox has many different names‚ Zolpidem‚ Ambiem and Lorex to name a few. Zolpidem is a prescription drug used for treating insomnia‚ it works quickly (within 15 minutes) and the effects last for around 3 hours (PubChem‚ 2016). As Stillnox is extremely effective in helping insomnia sufferers fall asleep a Stillnox dependence occurs and can often lead to addiction. In extreme circumstances death from overdose of Stillnox has and can occur. This can affect society in a number of different
