TECH0701: Measuring the Melting Points of Compounds and Mixtures Introduction This exercise dealt with the melting points of pure mandelic acid and benzoic acid. The eutectic temperature and composition of mandelic and benzoic acid mixtures were determined. And finally‚ an unknown was identified by its mixtures and melting point. The melting point of a compound is used by organic chemists not only to identify the compound‚ but also to establish its purity. To determine the melting point two

The Metal Casting or just Casting process may be divided into two groups: Hot Forming Process Examples are Centrifugal casting‚ Extrusion‚ Forging‚ Full mold casting‚ Investment casting‚ Permanent or Gravity Die casting‚ Plaster mold casting‚ Sand Casting‚ Shell Mold casting. The method to be used depends upon the nature of the products to be cast. Cold Forming Process Examples are Squeeze casting‚ Pressure die casting‚ Gravity die casting‚ Burnishing‚ Coining‚ Cold forging‚ Hubbing‚ Impact

Acetaminophen Abstract: The aim of this experiment is to prepare Acetaminophen (p-acetamidophenol)‚ an amide. Acetaminophen will be created by treating an amine (p-aminophenol) with an acetic anhydride. Color impurities present in the solid acetaminophen will be removed and then the decolorized product will be collected on a Büchner funnel for further purification by crystallization. Purity will then be determined by melting point. Introduction: Acetaminophen is commonly used as an analgesic to

Mario Renteria Mrs. Weathers Chem 04a 27 Jan‚ 2012 Lab Report Introduction: A popular technique in separating components of a mixture is paper chromatography. We use paper chromatography to separate mixtures and isolate there components to collect them individually. In this experiment‚ we will use acid- base indicators to help determine the unknown mixture. Acid- base indicators will change in color when the presence of pHs rise and fall when acids or bases are added to a solution. After setting

United States believe that America has been struck with a "trash crisis"‚ however‚ this is not truly case from the recent Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) facts for 2010. Before‚ we start let us take a moment to discuss what trash or municipal solid waste (MSW) is. MSW is the collection of commonly used items that discarded by the general populace‚ many of these include packaging‚ food scraps‚ grass clippings‚ sofas‚ computers‚ tires and house appliances (EPA). Although the information from the

There are only five platonic solids and the name of each shape comes from the number of faces it has.The five platonic solids are tetrahedron‚ octahedron‚ cube‚ icosahedron‚ and dodecahedron. Each solid is made of regular polygons and the polygons of each solid are congruent. The topics that will be discussed in this paper are what are the five platonic solids‚ who classified the five shapes‚ their key features‚ the shapes similarities and differences‚ and examples in real life. The first

Managing our Solid Waste: An Overview of the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act Much had been written about the worsening problem of solid waste in Metro Manila and other urban centers in the country. Even more were fora‚ seminars and conferences conducted to discuss ways of solving the problem. For how long would it take us to attain a zero waste economy‚ no one knows. But‚ one thing is sure - time is running out and WE need to act NOW! Why WE? The answer is simple‚ but at the same time
