synthesize trans-9-(2-phenylethenyl) 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‚

Egg Lab Write Up The purpose of this lab was to depicked the many properties of diffusion such as isotonic‚ hypotnonic‚ and hypertonic‚ so that students could have a clear visual example to go by for future refrences. We also did this to learn about selective permeability and osmosis. Our original hypothesis stated that the vinegar would react with the calcium in the shell to create CO2 bubbles. Note I said the original hypothesis as this experiment took coarse over a four day period‚ in which

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the bacteria of my initial unknown project. Determining which bacteria I had was completed by many steps. The one fact that I had‚ was that it was a gram negative bacteria because on the gram stain it appeared pink. Its cell wall is composed of a plasma membrane‚ periplasmic space‚ peptidoglycan and an outer membrane (lipopolysaccharide and protein). By looking at the agar plate it was easy to tell that it was not a swarmer and it did not have any

analysis method‚ and results of your laboratory work. The report is divided into several well-defined sections. Each section must be present in a complete report. To earn an outcome point for the laboratory report‚ a student must submit a formal lab report that earns a score of at least 90/100. Each error (factual‚ grammatical‚ typographical‚ spelling) results in a deduction of 5/100. Several opportunities will be offered through the second half of the semester for students to submit a successful

Kalle Watts Measurement Lab 9‚ 27‚ 2012 In this measurement lab we attempted to make the most precise and most accurate measurements. We used the materials and equipment that we had to make all of our measurements. We had to deal with significant figures and also‚ we had to designate each measurement with its proper unit. The objective of this lab was to use all of our equipment we had and make the most accurate measurements

Lab 2 Physics 190 Acceleration “g” Due to Gravity – Method 2 Introduction Tonight we will measure the acceleration due to gravity again. This time however‚ we will collect more data and the analysis will be different. We will first fit the data using a second order polynomial. Recall for a mass falling from rest‚ that 1 (1.1) y a yt 2 2 Suppose a mass falls through n successively greater displacements‚ each time starting from rest. The displacements can be expressed a 2 y y t ;
