Carboxylic acid derivatives namely‚ acyl halides‚ acid anhydrides‚ esters and amides were classified through different reactivity tests. The samples used were acetyl chloride for acyl halide group‚ acetic anhydride for acid anhydride group‚ ethyl acetate for ester group‚ acetamide and benzamide for amide group. These derivatives were identified through the mechanism of hydrolysis‚ alcoholysis and aminolysis reactions. Positive results were obtained and the presence of a carboxylic acid derivative

Lab #4 The Synthesis of Organic Polymers CHM2123‚ Section C October 21‚ 2014 Introduction: Organic polymers are macromolecules that are composed of smaller molecules called monomers. There are two main groups of polymers: natural polymers and unnatural (synthetic) polymers. Natural polymers include proteins such as cellulose and starch and are a necessity for our existence. On the other hand‚ synthetic polymers such as the polycarbonate in our lab goggles

were able to get through most of it‚ and were only missing the adulterant. The first step to identify our unknown samples was to create TLC plates that should results with each known compound and 95% hexane: 5% ethyl acetate‚ 90% hexane: 10% ethyl acetate‚ or 80% hexane: 20% ethyl acetate. Each student was designated one of these concentrations of solvent as well as visualization method. After we tested and calculated the Rf values of each of the following known compounds with each concentration:

field of chemical processes‚ the reactor vessel in which the reaction process take place is the key component of the equipment.The design of the reactors is very important to the success of the production. In this experiment‚ sodium hydroxide and ethyl acetate react in tubular flow reactor.Both of the reactants fed to the reactor at equimolar flowrate for a certain time.The reaction is carried out at different volumetric flowrate.The conductivity value of outlet stream is measured to determine the conversion

Lab #4 May 26‚ 2015 Diels Alder Reaction Introduction: Diels Alder Reaction is the reaction of a diene with a species capable of reacting with the diene‚ the dienophile. A diene is a hydrocarbon that contains two carbon double bonds‚ while a dienophile is an electron-deficient alkene. The Diels-Alder is also called a [4+2] cycloaddition because a ring is formed by the interaction of four pi electrons of the alkene with two pi electrons of the alkene or alkyne. The product of the Diels-Alder

Banana (Musa spp.) is one of the most produced and widely consumed by worldwide market; and was originally descendent from hot and tropical region in South East Asia. For over 200 species were discovered which contributes to various cultivar with different types of characteristics and appearances tagged along the traits (Salunke‚ 1984). Banana came from family Musaceae genus and scientifically named as Musa paradisiacal L. In Malaysia‚ the diversity of banana can be proofed by the cultivars of diploid

Chromatography (TLC) Plating: This is a common method that is used to monitor the progress of a reaction and determine when it is complete. In our chromatography there was a stationary phase/adsorbant of Silica gel and we used mobile phases of ethyl acetate‚ hexanes‚ and a 2:8 mix of both. During the process‚ the mobile phase passes over the compound spots at the bottom and drags them up the adsorbant. The resulting spots where the compounds stop can be used to measure their polarity and solubility

In order to obtain liquid phase CO2 at room temperature and 1 atm‚ CO2 has to be pressurized and heated
