company Bayer in 1897. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) decomposes rapidly in solutions of ammonium acetate or of the acetates‚ carbonates‚ citrates or hydroxides of the alkali metals. ASA is stable in dry air‚ but gradually hydrolyses in contact with moisture to acetic and salicylic acids. In solution with alkalis‚ the hydrolysis proceeds rapidly and the clear solutions formed may consist entirely of acetate and salicylate. Aspirin is readily broken down in the body to salicylic acid‚

Introduction: Dealing with chemicals is an essential part of a chemical engineer’s job. It is therefore crucial to be able to accurately identify the composition of a chemical to be able to work with it. Indeed‚ different species have different physical and chemical properties which dictate their uses and applications. Furthermore‚ this kind of analysis is important in quality control since the detection of unwanted chemicals may lead to the rejection of a product for example. In addition to qualitative

This is done by restraining their ionization. Overall‚ ethyl acetate containing 0.5% acetic acid was effective because the various analgesics in Anacin‚ Excedrin‚ Motrin‚ and No-Doz were all clearly separated and

Clinical studies show potassium nitrate progressively reduces the pain of sensitivity over a period of weeks. As long as a toothpaste with potassium like Sensodyne is used twice daily in brushing‚ the nerve response will gradually be reduced and sensitivity pain is relieved. Strontium Acetate: Sensodyne Rapid Relief contains

Spectrophotometric Methods: The Determination of Iron The goal of this laboratory experiment was the quantitative spectrophotometric determination of Fe (II) by using a calibration plot‚ which obeyed the Beer-Lambert Law. In order to determine the Fe (II) concentration‚ a series of solutions of known concentrations were made. The solutions were analyzed by the Ocean Optics spectrophotometer in order to determine their absorbance. The concentration of the unknown Fe (II) was determined by the “eye-ball”

Chem 3418 Organic Chemistry Laboratory I Acid Base Review Definition In general‚ an acid is a substance that can donate a proton (H+) and a base is a substance that can accept a proton. Any proton in an organic molecule can potentially be donated. The most acidic proton in a molecule would be donated first. Any lone pair in an organic molecule can act as the proton acceptor. An acid (HA) reacts with a base (in this case H2O) to form the conjugate base of the acid (A-) and the conjugate acid of the

They are microscopic cells that carry oxygen from the lungs to all the tissues throughout the body. Upon transporting oxygen‚ red blood cells also exports waste‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ to the lungs where it can be expelled. Red blood cells are made up of hemoglobin which is surrounded by a

The curds were placed in a 100 mL beaker and extracted using 30 mL of ethyl acetate. The curds were crushed with a stirring rod. This extraction was then gravity filtered through a funnel fitted with the filter paper. A rubber policeman was used to scrape the beaker to get as much casein as possible. This casein was then put aside
