A. Goal and Purpose: Session 1: In this lab‚ we will achieve a simple Friedel-Crafts alkylation of anthracene. The choice of anthracene as an aromatic substrate stems from two considerations. First‚ there is a question of regioselectivity. Second‚ anthracene and its derivatives are highly visible under UV light. Session 2: In this lab‚ we will complete a partial conversion of 9-acetylanthracene using m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA). We will also determine by NMR‚ the regiochemistry of the

Lab 3 : Techniques in Microscopy Title : Preparation of light microscope observe cell organisms. Objective : To observe and investigate the cell structure under the light microscope. Introduction A microscope is an instrument used to magnify and resolve a specimen. It is important to know several important features of microscopy which involves magnification‚ resolution and contrast. Magnification is the enlargement of a specimen while resolution is the ability to distinguish detail or the

Derricka Joe Period 5 1 Oct.‚ 2014 Lab Experiment One: Physical Properties Lab Analysis: For our first unknown‚ we observed the color and odor of the substance. The substance was a clumpy‚ white‚ crystal-like substance and it smells like new plastic. When we tested the solubility in water it resulted insoluble and in ethanol it resulted soluble. This substance could not be tested for electrical conductivity because the water was insoluble. We then tested for the PH value and it was neutral. The

Acid Base Titration Purpose: The purpose is to calculate the molarity of a NaOH solution by titrating the base with 5mL of standard HCl solution in each trial. By adding the base with unknown molarity to the acid with 0.10M the molarity of NaOH can be calculated. The base‚ NaOH‚ helps bring the pH of the acid‚ HCl‚ closer to seven‚ which neutralizes it. When using the buret the amount of NaOH used is able to be determined. Then by writing a balanced chemical equation and using the titration

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS: This experiment circles around with the Newton’s second condition of equilibrium in rotational motion. It describes by net torque acting on a body which is zero. The ability of the body to rotate in a certain direction is varied according on how much torque is applied. To prove that‚ a beam that is subjected to two forces is balanced by adjusting the perpendicular distances. When applied force is weight‚ modification in masses added is also done. Once equilibrium is achieved

Enzyme lab report. Introduction. An enzyme is a protein molecule that speeds up the rates of chemical reactions by many folds. They recognize‚ bind‚ and change specific reactants. They do not change thus can catalyze the same reaction again and again. Activation energy also known as an energy barrier is the amount of energy needed in order to begin a chemical reaction. Catecholase catalyzes the reaction rate of catechol oxidation. Catechol is found beneath the skin of many plants such

EXPERIMENT 5 SEPARATION OF A MIXTURE INTO ITS COMPONENTS BY FRACTIONAL CRYSTALLIZATION Introduction: Fractional crystallization is one of the experimental techniques used to separate or purify mixture. Fractional crystallization makes use of the differences of solubility to separate the components of a mixture. Goals: Applying fractional crystallization to separate a mixture of salicylic acid and copper sulfate pentahydrate into its components. Calculate the percent of salicylic
