spectrophotometric analysis of copper sulphate Introduction: In the modern usage. The term spectroscopy includes a large group of techniques which differ widely in their mode of application and information they reveal. As a useful working definition‚ spectroscopy is a study of interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter in the experiment it means it’s the usage of ultra-light to measure the absorbance of the copper sulpate. The regions of the electromagnetic spectrum immediately adjacent

EXPERIMENT A: CIS-TRANS CONVERSION OF BUTENEDIOIC ACID PRE-LAB ASSIGNMENT 1. Maleic acid is the cis version and fumaric acis is the trans version of butenedioic acid. 2. 3. See attached paper. 4. Maleic anhydride is the compound that crystalizes in part A in the experiment. 5. HCl acts as a catalyst to break one of the carbonyl group in the maleic acid which rotates the structure to form a trans structure of the butonal acid which is the fumaric acid. And it does so by donating

EXPERIMENT 8 BOILING POINT n-Butyl Alcohol n-Butyl Alcohol‚ a four carbon straight chain alcohol‚ is a volatile‚ clear liquid with a strong alcoholic odor; miscible with water. It is flammable strongly with a luminous flame. Formula: C4H9OH Boiling point: 118 ºC Melting point: -89 ºC Tert-Butyl Alcohol Tert-Butyl Alcohol or “2-methyl-2-propanol” is the simplest tertiary alcohol. It is one of the four isomers of butanol. Tert-Butanol is a clear liquid (or a colorless solid‚ depending on

Dissociation is a protective mechanism that stimulates a person to enter into a detached state‚ in which the person is completely separated from his or her usual thought processes and memories. It is a state activated by one’s nervous system upon reaching maximum capacity to process the “real” stimuli around him or her‚ thus causing that person to lose track of time and find another representation of himself to continue in that moment.

Synthesis of Methyl Stearate The purpose of this lab was the convert liquid methyl oleate to solid methyl stearate by catalytic hydrogenation. Firstly‚ we produced hydrogen gas using solid mossy zinc and sulfuric acid. Using the hydrogen produced in the previous reaction‚ we were able to convert the liquid methyl oleate to solid crystals of methyl stearate. A mineral oil was also used to bubbler was used to maintain the hydrogen pressure slightly above the atmospheric pressure and to prevent back-diffusion

BRONSTED-LOWRY ACIDS AND BASES 1. The Bronsted-Lowry definition There are many definitions of acids and bases in existence‚ but the most useful one is the Bronsted-Lowry definition: An acid is a substance which can behave as a proton (re presented as a hydrogen ion‚ H+) donor. Any substance which contains hydrogen bonded to a more electronegative element can thus behave as an acid: HCl == H+ + Cl- H2SO4 == H+ + HSO4- A base is a substance which can behave as a proton acceptor.
