Reacting Acids and Bases Lab Report Introduction Every liquid‚ except for distilled water‚ has either acidic or basic traits. An acid is sour tasting‚ and gives a sharp stinging pain in a cut or wound‚ and bases taste bitter‚ and feel slippery. A pH scale is used to determine what traits a liquid has; acidic or basic. The scale focuses on OH- (hydroxide ions) and H+ (hydrogen ions). The scale goes from 0 to 14. 7 is distilled water‚ as it is directly in the middle; neither acidic or basic. Acids are

Substitution Reactions of 3-phenyl-1-phenol‚ 2-pentanol‚ and 2‚4-dimethyl-3-pentanol Samantha Sparks‚ Isi Nosegbe and Sabrina Becker. Department of Chemistry‚ IUPUI‚ 402 N. Blackford St.‚ Indianapolis‚ IN 46202 This project was collaborated on by three different organic chemistry students‚ who individually synthesized and researched each of the three substitution reactions in this experiment.. The first reaction was an Sn2 reaction of 3-phenyl-1-propanol with NaBr and H2SO4 to create1-bromo-3-phenylpropane

Preparation and purification of acetylsalicylic acid Results and Data treatment (A) Preparation of aspirin i) Details about the reactants Reaction of the acetylation of salicylic acid is following From the balanced reaction above‚ it can be seen that the stoichiometry between salicylic acid and acetic anhydride is 1: 1. In this experiment‚ 21.7mmol of salicylic acid was used to react 6.0mL of acetic anhydride and salicylic acid was limiting reagent. The expected amount of salicylic

EXPERIMENT 3: INTRODUCTION TO TITRATION – DETERMINATION OF THE MOLARITY AND CONCENTRATION OF SULPHURIC ACID BY TITRATION WITH A STANDARD SOLUTION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE INTRODUCTION Reaction of acid and base is one of the most common reaction in chemistry. This reaction is also widely known as neutralization. In this experiment‚ we used titration technique which involves accurately measuring the volume of a solution required to react with another reagent. An indicator must be used to determine the

Enzymes Reactions to Changes in Substrate and Inhibitors Benjamin J. Mora Coronado University of Texas Rio Grande Valley at Edinburgh Abstract Purpose for the experiments was to test the enzymes in various scenarios and see how changing this would affect the rate of reaction. The enzyme source used in the experiments was Turnip Extract. Concentrations of Turnip extract for activity 1 where o.5ml‚ 1.0ml‚ and 2.0 ml as for the rest of the activities 2 Through 4 stayed at a consistent concentration

a negative charge and if pH < pI‚ the protein will have a positive charge. Buffer I has a pH >5‚ meaning both proteins carry a negative charge and bind to the DEAE (a positively charged resin). (b) pH = pKa + log10(Base/Acid) [Base = mM of sodium acetate; Acid = mM of acetic acid] = 4.7 + log10 (40/40) = 4.7 In order for the catalase to elute from the column‚ it must have lost its negative charge and stopped binding to the DEAE. Lowering the pH nullifies the negative charge on the protein

anthracene from benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride and 9-anthraldehyde through the reaction mechanism recognized as the Wittig Reaction. The Wittig Reaction allows the chemist to synthesize phosphoranes in the lab with relative ease. A more recent and inexpensive version of the reaction is the Wittig-Horner reaction (1). ABSTRACT Georg Wittig was a German chemist and Nobel Prize winner in 1979 for the Wittig reaction (1). He was born in Berlin‚ on June 16‚ 1897‚ and died August 26‚ 1987 (1). Wittig

Acid-base titrations can be conducted using the above samples against standardized aqueous NaOH and standardized aqueous HCl solutions respectively. 2. Introduction: Acetic acid‚ commonly known as ethanoic acid CH3COOH‚ is found in commercial vinegar. It is a weak organic acid that gives vinegar its characteristic pungent smell‚ sour taste and slight acidity. Being an acid‚ vinegar

Introduction – Lab Report What is a Chemical Reaction? A chemical reaction is a change in matter that produces one or more new substances. A chemical change or reaction occurs when bonds are broken and new ones are formed. The formation and dissolution of these bonds are dependent upon environment changes. Even without the usage of microscopes‚ chemical reactions are usually apparent to the naked eye. The two main kinds of changes that one can observe are the formation of new substances and changes
