Experiment 4 Synthesis of Salicylic Acid Introduction Throughout history‚ botanical extracts have been used as medicines. Approximately 30% of all medicines have a plant origin. This number increases to 60% if you consider medicines that at one time were derived from plants‚ but have been synthesized in the laboratory. Salicylic acid is a white crystalline compound that can be isolated from the bark of birch trees. Since it is a valuable substance that can be isolated from nature‚ it is called

In “Helping Students Use Textual Sources Persuasively‚” Margaret Kantz talks about how individuals should read texts to write a synthesis essay. To write a synthesis essay‚ one should be able to come up with an argument and find information from other sources‚ and use them as proofs to back up the argument. First‚ Kantz talks about the mistakes that students usually make when they write this essay. For instance‚ Shirley made a mistake by reading a repeating and telling the story instead of creating

biodiesel. Through the synthesis process‚ 31.307 grams of canola biodiesel was produced‚ which is a percentage yield of 85.714%. In order to get this percentage yield‚ the following calculations were made: 40.2 mL canola oil × 0.9073 g1 mL=36.5 g × 1 mol376.6 g=0.0416 moles canola oil From the prelab‚ for every 1 mole of oil‚ 3 moles of biodiesel are produced. 0.0416 mol oil × 3 mol biodiesel1 mol oil=0.125 mol biodiesel × 292.2 g1 mol=36.525 g biodisel The theoretical yield for this reaction is

solubility of acetylsalicylic acid and dissolved some impurities from the crystal of aspirin. The aspirin was then isolated from the solution using a vacuum filtration apparatus. The percent yield of crude aspirin product was 91.89%. To purify the crude aspirin product a recrystallization procedure was performed. The percent yield of the purified aspirin product was 5.77%. Next a phenol test was performed on the crude aspirin product‚ the purified aspirin product‚ and salicylic acid as a control. The phenol

Respectively‚ in Figure 3‚ a large deviation amongst the initial and final quantity of copper‚ this implies that the rest of the mass that had diminished‚ was greater than the final product. These findings correlate to Figure 2 calculations as‚ the % yield was reasonably insignificant of 49.12%. The initial mass of Copper was‚1.598g; whereas‚ the final amount of copper was‚ 0.785g. This suggests that the 0.813 g of copper could have transitioned into Hydrogen gas‚ and therefore contradicting the hypothesis

The Synthesis of Alkenes: The Dehydration of Cyclohexanol Adam Ohnmacht CHEM 0330 Scott Caplan 10/30/12 Abstract: In Organic Chemistry‚ many different methods are used to synthesize organic compounds from various components. In this lab‚ cyclohexanol was dehydrated to cyclohexene through an elimination reaction. In order to separate the cyclohexene product from the cyclohexanol starting component‚ previously learned lab techniques such as extractions and simple distillation were used.

Jasmine Land Mrs. Bond GE 100- Grammar and Usage April 23‚ 2013 Argumentative Synthesis: For Abortions Before 1967‚ abortion was illegal in the UK. However‚ backstreet abortions were done‚ often ending in permanent injury or death. The 1967 Abortion Act was introduced to provide a safe alternative to backstreet abortions (Abortion). In 1973‚ the Supreme Court handed down its Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton decisions legalizing abortion in all 50 states during all nine months of pregnancy‚ for

aMicroscale Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate (Banana Oil) Objective: Carried out the microscale synthesis of isopentyl acetate by direct esterification of acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol. This was an acid catalyzed Fischer esterification. Both extraction and distillation were employed to obtain a pure product. IR spectroscopy and gas chromatography were used to determine purity of the final product. Reagents: * Compound: | * MW (g/mol): | * MP (°C): | * BP (°C): | * Density (g/mL):
