Department of Psychology‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract Four organic samples: hexane‚ cyclohexene‚ napthalene and toulene were given to serve as reference standards to characterize and distinguish four unknown given samples. Nitration‚ bromine and basic oxidation testswere conducted to classify the different samples from being an aliphatic‚ or aromatic‚ saturated or unsaturated and alkylated or non-alkylated hydrocarbons. The physical state and color were noted by simple physical

2):  During this experiment‚ we used recrystallization methods in order to help in the purification of the unknown solid‚ as well as drying and vacuum filtration. We then ground the unknown and combined it with different chemicals (such as acetanilide or phenacetin) and used the melting point ranges to determine the identity. We used the Mel-Temp method in order to measure the melting points. (It is important to remember that if a chemical is mixed with a differing chemical‚ the melting point

Introduction:The purpose of this lab was to determine the activating effect of aniline‚ phenol‚ anisole and acetanilide after reacting with pyridinum tribromide in order to undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution. The melting point of the isolated products were measured against the standards in order to determine how strong of an ortho/para activator the compound was based on the product(s) and melting point obtained. Theory: Electrophilic aromatic substitution is an organic reaction that takes

Preparation of methyl m-nitrobenzoate by nitration using methyl benzoate‚ nitric acid‚ and sulfuric acid Aileen Quintana TA: Sijie Tues/Thurs 11:50 42067 Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to explore the concepts of electrophilic aromatic substitution‚ specifically nitration by synthesizing methyl m-nitrobenzoate using methyl benzoate‚ nitric acid and sulfuric acid. This nitration is a type of electrophilic aromatic substitution. A

Three tests‚ nitration test‚ bromine test and basic oxidation test were conducted to fully differentiate each type of hydrocarbon from one another. Nitration tests resulted to three positive outcomes and two negative outcomes. A positive outcome in the nitration test shows that the hydrocarbon is aromatic while a negative outcome is aliphatic. In the bromine test‚ the results showed that

Kate Kirby June 6‚ 2013 Title: Extraction of an Unknown Compound Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to separate a mixture of two or more unknown compounds and identify them based on their melting point and reactivity with an acid or a base. Compound studied/Reactions: The organic solvent used in this experiment was methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE‚ 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane). The unknown that dissolved in the MTBE‚ but was insoluble in water. MBTE is very volatile and flammable. It was

13‚ 2015 Answers to Questions: 1.) Arrangement of Reactivity: (fastest to slowest) - Phenol‚ Nitrophenol‚ Acetanilide‚ Benzene‚ Chlorobenzene‚ Aniline - A reaction has occurred if there’s a change in color. The nature of the substituent‚ whether electron-donating to the ring or electron-withdrawing from the ring‚ was responsible for the reactivity of the benzene. Aniline and acetanilide contain amine groups‚ which are electron-donating. Chlorobenzene contains chlorine‚ which is electron-withdrawing
