Acid Rain Lab Report Introduction: The problem was to see how crushed chalk and whole chalk weather differently. The independent variables are The temperature of the liquids The surface area of the chalk‚ crushed vs whole The dependant variable was the weathering of the chalk; this was calculated by measuring the foam reactant. Procedure: Part B- For the two partners recording data with the room temperature liquids‚ the materials where collected first. Two of the graduated

Experiment #1: Separation of Acid‚ Base‚ and Neutral Compounds from a Solid Mixture by Liquid-Liquid Extraction Introduction Liquid-liquid extraction is a technique used to separate chemical substances in order to purify or identify the various components of a mixture. Flavors‚ spices‚ perfumes‚ and medicines are just some of the everyday things that are extracted from plants and other natural sources [1]. The basic principle used to carry out this separation is the mixing of two liquids that are

My drug is LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide) 2. Usually LSD is taken by mouth. It is dissolved into a liquid and soaked into blotter paper‚ which is then cut into quarter inch sized doses. These are also called tabs‚ trips‚ or hits. Although it is less common‚ LSD powder can also be squeezed into tiny pills‚ called microdots‚ or placed into capsules. The liquid itself can be squeezed into the eye. 3. LSD is manmade. 4. Battery Acid‚ California Sunshine‚ Dots‚ Golden Dragon‚ Pane‚ Looney Toons

Based on calculations #7 made above for solving the molecular weight‚ it was identified that the unknown liquid was Butanoic acid: 88.1g/mol. Since the calculated value was 83.5 g/mol‚ it was assumed that Butanoic acid was the only solute out of all that were listed that shared a similar value. In reference to the results and data used for calculation the molecular weight (MW) for the unknown was successfully proven to match the accepted value of 88.1 g/mol. More specifically‚ this was evident due

A Swiss chemist named Dr. Albert Hoffman first produced lysergic acid Diethylmide or best known as LSD in 1938 (Dye‚ 1992‚ p. 2). Hoffman discovered the drug while trying to synthesize a new drug for the treatment of headaches. He obtained the lysergic acid from the parasitic fungus that grows on rye plants known as ergot. From the lysergic acid‚ he synthesized the compound LSD. He used the compound to test for its pain killing properties on laboratory animals. Being that appeared totally ineffective
