Reality television has become one of the most common forms of entertainment in the American household since the early 2000’s. From “The Bachelor” to “Jersey Shore”‚ no plot seems too racy or inappropriate for audiences of all ages. Recently‚ however‚ TLC aired their newest reality TV show‚ “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” that is thought to be one of the most controversial reality TV series of all time. The show encompasses the lives of a small-town‚ southern Georgian family who live a frugal lifestyle‚ and

To determine which product the reduction has produced we will use melting point‚ IR‚ and TLC. Key Experimental Details and Observations: To perform this experiment 1.005 g of benzil was placed in a 125 ml Erlenmeyer flask. We then added approximately 10.0 mL of 95% ethanol‚ a stir bar‚ and placed the mixture on a hot plate until the benzil

Experiment 2: Isolation of Eugenol from Cloves Background; Readings on Vapor pressure‚ Raoult’s Law from TRO: A mixture of the essential oils‚ eugenol and acetyleugenol‚ will be steam distilled from cloves. These compounds are isolated from aqueous distillate by extraction into dichloromethane. The dichloromethane solution is shaken with aqueous sodium hydroxide‚ which will react with eugenol‚ to yield the sodium salt of eugenol in the basic

Once separated‚ the components extracted were characterized by measuring the melting point and performing a TLC analysis. Also‚ the recovered aspirin from the first part of the experiment was recrystallized and compared to that of the isolated aspirin.

For the TLC plate in toluene‚ both the fluorene and fluorenone shifted‚ but the fluorenone shifted farther. This is expected since the polarity of toluene and fluorenone are more similar. However‚ since fluorene shifted

Preparation and melting point of Aspirin Aspirin is a painkilling drug and is produced worldwide to reduce and stop pain. Aspirin is made up of ehtanoylation of 2-hydroxbenzenecarboxylic acid in a presence of phosphoric acid. AIM: The aim of the experiment is to prepare and produce aspirin as pure as possible. I will do this threw preparing the aspirin and purifying the product threw recrystallization. I will then obtain a melting point of my product to get an estimate of its purity. By the end

Chapter I PRODUCT SPECIFICATION I. Introduction Mango (Magnifera indicia) is a major tropical fruit that is widely consumed in the society. It is considered the dominant tropical fruit variety in the world (Sarris 2003) with total production worldwide of about 25 million metric tonnes a year. It is a succulent‚ delicious fruit with a high nutritional content that is commonly consumed when ripe. Mango is a seasonal fruit that is native to Southeast Asia. As a result of its sweet taste and the large
