Introduction: In this lab‚ we measured the acid-base strengths of seven separate organic compounds. The lab was painless to perform‚ it consisted of adding a small amount of one of the organic compounds to a well‚ and testing the pH via testing paper. The color of the paper was then analyzed to determine what the pH of the compound was. The structures were benzenesulfonic acid‚ benzoic acid‚ benzyl alcohol‚ benzylamine‚ p-cresol‚ and p-toluidine. My initial hypothesis about the acidity/basicity

Synthesis of Chloroform -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With Calcium Hypochlorite and Acetone When chlorine is passed into boiling alcohol‚ both chlorination of the methyl group and oxidation of the primary alcohol group to an aldehyde occur‚ giving trichloro-acetaldehyde or chloral: When chloral is treated with caustic alkali‚ fission of the C-C linkage occurs‚ giving chloroform and a formate. Acetaldehyde and also many ketones‚ such as acetone

Carboxylic acids are compounds which contain a carboxyl group‚ -COOH group‚ where the -COOH group is attached either to a hydrogen atom or to an alkyl group. One of the example of carboxylic acid is benzoic acid( benzene carboxylic acid) which has a benzene connected to the carboxyl carboxyl group‚ -COOH group. It has a formula of C6H5COOH. The carbon atom of a carboxyl group has a high oxidation state. Therefore‚ that many of the chemical reactions used for their preparation are oxidations. In

Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to produce isopentyl acetate‚ banana oil. Acetic acid and isoamyl alcohol were used to synthesize isopentyl acetate. The techniques used for the separation and purification of isopentyl acetate were reflux‚ liquid-liquid extraction‚ neutralization and distillation. The identification of isopentyl acetate was based on boiling points and an infrared spectrum. This experiment resulted in a 11.68% yield. The reactants

Acid in the human stomach When people refer to acid they usually see it as a corrosive liquid that can dissolve metals or change the color of a substance. So they think of acid as a dangerous matter for the body and believe it can easily dissolve your skin. What I have previously listed are indeed properties of certain acids‚ such as Hydrofluoric Acid which can cause irreversible tissue damage if it comes in contact with skin‚ but not all acids are this strong. As a matter of fact what a lot of

The Central Role of the Citric Acid Cycle 3 processes play central roles in aerobic metabolism. The citric acid cycle. Electron transport . Oxidative phosphorylation. Metabolism consists of: Catabolism: the oxidative breakdown of nutrients. Anabolism: the reductive synthesis of biomolecules. • The citric acid cycle is amphibolic

of MPTP dramatically accelerates this process in the course of days and not years (Hanson et al.‚ 2015). Additionally consumption results in a reduction of glutathione content (Sian et al.‚ 1999). What have been good and bad consequences of the synthesis of MPTP? MPTP negatively affects the body by penetrating the blood-brain barrier and entering the brain cells. MPTP is not toxic‚ however when it oxidizes it forms MPP+ which is toxic. Toxic oxidation later reaches the extracellular fluid and

Review 2: Text DNA is a very special and important molecule that is in our life‚ DNA is found in the nucleus. DNA stores the data needed to make poly peptides‚then data in a nucleic acid is transferred to messenger RNA‚ which escapes the nucleus into a protein. According to the DNA and protein article DNA is used in many things but DNA is used to make pol-peptides. They are another word for proteins. When a cell makes a protein the direction are resembled from the part of an DNA. DNA strand and transcript

These acids provide an acidic environment for reduction of ferric iron to ferrous (Fe2+). Ferrous iron can be absorbed in the body system. As in following equation of iron (iii) reaction with Ascorbic acid ‚ the product is iron (ii) chloride which is soluble 2 Fe3+ (s) + C6 H8 O6 (aq) → 2 Fe2+ (aq) + C6 H6 O6 (aq) + 2 H (aq)+

You must pull your support from two of these texts: Beard‚ White‚ Sanders‚ Slouka‚ Burroughs‚ Hurd‚ Morano. Identifying and selecting relevant supporting details is analysis‚ and integrating those details into your essay to support your thesis is synthesis. Your essay—with your original thesis and the details you’ve chosen from the two essays—is a new‚ unique whole. The integration of your thesis‚ your supporting details‚ and your use of language to explain how it all coheres represent the workings
