Objective: Separate and purify acetanilide from a mixture by recrystallization. Compare the melting points of crude and recrystallized acetanilide. Introduction : The most common method of purifying solid organic compounds is by recrystallization. In this technique‚ an impure solid compound is dissolved in a solvent and then allowed to slowly crystallize out as the solution cools. As the compound crystallizes from the solution‚ the molecules of the other compounds dissolved

THE VICTORIA SCHOOL SANTIAGO JACOME LAB REPORT PTC BIOLOGY SL AIM: The aim of this lab is to analyze the genotype differences of classmates that are able to taste PTC‚ Thiourea and Sodium benzoate and determine the phenotypes found. Testing the ability to taste PTC has been a mainstay activity in human genetics for generations of teacher and students. The ability to taste PTC is inherited. Traditionally this is presented as a case of simple Mendelian inheritance involving a dominant allele for tasting

EFFECTS OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS (10244818) Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are organic chemical compounds that have high enough vapor pressures under normal conditions to significantly vaporize and enter the atmosphere. According to EPA ’s Terms of the Environment‚ a volatile organic compound is "any organic compound that participates in atmospheric photochemical reactions except those designated by EPA as having negligible photochemical reactivity." VOC can also stand for the term “volatile

– February 28‚ 2014 ABSTRACT The observed reaction that took place in this experiment was the de-esterification of ethyl benzoate to form benzoic acid. This experiment was used to determine the rate constant k of the synthesis of benzoic acid at different temperatures and ethanol concentrations. The reaction was carried out in a batch reactor‚ where ethyl benzoate was added to a mixture of water‚ ethanol‚ and sodium hydroxide. The agitation speed of the batch reactor was kept set at 250 rpm

Typical soft drinks usually contain carbonated water‚ caffeine‚ sodium benzoate‚ flavoring agents‚ and sweeteners as well for the purpose for enhancing flavor‚ and in the case of benzoate‚ to function as a preservative. Caffeine is one of the major components that is found in several beverages like coffee‚ energy drinks‚ tea‚ and soft drinks; just to name a few. Caffeine is known to be a powerful drug‚ which many people become dependent on; when they wake up in the morning it is typical to have a
