Why is organic chemistry important? Organic compounds are used for many different things. Daily life in today’s world would be very hard to live in without organic compounds; in fact life would not be possible without organic compounds. For example‚ most of your body is made up of organic compounds. The food you eat is made up of organic compounds. Even the flavourings and colourings on processed food are organic. The clothes you wear are‚ yes you guessed it‚ organic as well. What’s more is that

Experiment 6 titled “Organic Chemistry” and the purpose of this lab is to get familiar with some organic functional group and test certain reactions of selected functional groups. To do the first part of the experiment (combustion test)‚ instructor demonstration in hood‚ and record the observation. Part A (combustion of toluene) pour 1 milliliter of toluene into a evaporating dish and ignite it with a flaming wood splint. Most importantly put the flame with a watchglass. Part B (combustion of ethyl

Extraction of Eugenol from Cloves 02/01/2014 CHM2210L University of North Florida Abstract Eugenol is found in the essential oil of cloves and has distinct properties that make it an important product to both food and drug industries. (Bhimrao‚ et. al‚ 2004). To utilize many of eugenol’s characteristic properties‚ it is necessary to isolate this organic chemical from the other components of cloves. In this experiment‚ eugenol was isolated from a sample of cloves using a series of techniques

Exercise 1 Polymers – An introduction to Organic Chemistry Group 3 Jude Marchoni C. Tampus Meryl Marie Susan Chua Pearl Pontillas Paolo Pepito Gaia Casas I. Abstract: (Paolo) In this experiment we will be testing what would happen to the polymer when we add borax to it. A polymer is a compound made up of large molecules often in a solid state. Polymers are chemically formed by 100 to 10‚000 small molecules called "monomers". Monomers occur in molecular units or patterns

depending on the number of alkyl substituents directly attached to the carbon attached to the halogen atom. The purpose of this lab was to properly prepare t-butyl chloride from t-butyl-alcohol in a concentrated hydrochloric acid. The reaction occurs through a nucleophilic substitution‚ which is when a nucleophile replaces the leaving group in the substrate. In this lab‚ the hydroxyl group of t-butyl alcohol is replaced by a chlorine atom. The reaction proceeds through an SN1 mechanism (Weldegirma

Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to perform a liquid-liquid extraction method to extract the caffeine from the tea bags that were provided‚ and then recrystallize the caffeine. The solvents used in the experiment were an aqueous sodium carbonate and dichloromethane (DCM). Anhydrous calcium chloride pellets were used to dry the solution and emulsion layer and the DCM was then decanted. After washing the anhydrous calcium chloride pellets with more DCM‚ the solvent was evaporated‚ leaving
