Experiment #7: Acids‚ Bases and Salts Mabag‚ Viannery D.‚ Mangune‚ Paolo D. Chem 14.1‚ MAB1‚ Ms. Angelyn del Rosario March 8‚ 2010 I. Abstract The experiment allowed students to explore different electrolytes and classify them into acids‚ bases and salts by using different indicators or by measuring the pH levels of each. The experiment also helped students classify different substances through their conductivity properties. The preparation of a 1 M stock solution from NaOH pellets diluted to a

Synthesis of Aspirin and Oil of Wintergreen Janelle Alyssa P. Prudente De La Salle University-Dasmariñas Dasmariñas City‚ Cavite‚ Philippines ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ acetylsalicylic acid commonly known as aspirin and methyl salicylate‚ commonly known as oil of wintergreen‚ was synthesized from salicylic acid. This study will show that it is possible to show two very different organic compounds from the same common starting material. For the synthesis of aspirin‚ salicylic acid

plate and started the Gram Stain protocol1. In the first two slides‚ I made and stained‚ my results were ambiguous. Without putting the slide into the microscope‚ I noticed one was pink and the other purple. To resolve it‚ I discarded my slides and started again and was extremely careful in proceeding the Gram Stain. I concluded that my unknown A was gram-negative bacilli. Using the dichotomous key for gram-negative bacilli I started the protocol for the lactose test2 which would help me determine

Anna Powell 2nd I.Title: Acid-Base Titrations AP Chemistry Laboratory #6 II.Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to standardize a sodium hydroxide solution and use the standard solution to titrate an unknown solid acid. The equivalent mass of the solid acid will be determined from the volume of sodium hydroxide added at the equivalence point. The equilibrium constant‚ Ks‚ of the solid acid will be calculated from the titration curve obtained by plotting the pH of the solution versus

INTRODUCTION: Penicillin is the basis for most of the antibiotics in the world just as aspirin is the basis for many drugs. Therefore‚ if there had been only two drugs to invent‚ it would be down to penicillin and aspirin. Hippocrates‚ the father of modern medicine lived sometime between 460 B.C and 377 B.C. Hippocrates has left historical records of pain relief treatments‚ including the use of a powder made from the bark and leaves of the willow tree to help heal headaches‚ pains and fevers.
Free Aspirin
Aspirin were used to relieve pain‚ inflammation‚ and fever. Aspirin were made using a combination of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride.The goal of this experiment was to determined the purity of aspirin using different methods. These methods included‚ reacting salicylic acid with FeCl3‚ finding its melting points‚ and by doing Thin-layer chromatography. When you reacted salicylic acid with FeCl3‚ changes in color will occur. Pure Aspirin has a melting point around 135°C and a pure salicylic acid

1. What is the more formal chemical name for aspirin? Acetylsalicylic acid 2. Using your data from Experiment 2‚ how can you be sure you synthesized aspirin? By using the colors as a guide‚ we can compare the Acetylsalicylic acid + 8 mL FeCl3 to the Aspirin Crystals from Experiment 1 + 8 mL FeCl3 in order to see if it synthesized. 3. Would you say that your synthesized aspirin is relatively pure? How can you tell? One way that the purity of aspirin can be judged is by it’s color as pure

BRONSTED-LOWRY ACIDS AND BASES 1. The Bronsted-Lowry definition There are many definitions of acids and bases in existence‚ but the most useful one is the Bronsted-Lowry definition: An acid is a substance which can behave as a proton (re presented as a hydrogen ion‚ H+) donor. Any substance which contains hydrogen bonded to a more electronegative element can thus behave as an acid: HCl == H+ + Cl- H2SO4 == H+ + HSO4- A base is a substance which can behave as a proton acceptor.
