ORGANIC CHEMISTRY LAB 2: Separation of Organic Liquid Mixtures Introduction: In this experiment‚ a mixture of two compounds‚ cyclohexane and toluene‚ was separated into fractions by the techniques of simple and fractional distillation. The individual fractions that were gathered from the distillation were analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) and used to compare the efficiencies of the two different distillation techniques. The ultimate goal of this experiment was to determine whether simple

EXPERIMENT I Photoreduction of Benzophenone Introduction The study of chemical reactions‚ isomerizations and physical behavior that may occur under the influence of visible and/or ultraviolet light is called Photochemistry. The fundamental principles for understanding photochemical transformations are that light must be absorbed by a compound in order for a photochemical reaction to take place‚ and that for each photon of light absorbed by a chemical system only one molecule is activated for

In this lab‚ the pH of flat sprite and a fresh sprite are compared two ways: one way was to record the pH directly with a digital pH probe and the other was to calculate the concentration through titration. Because the reaction is a neutralization reaction‚ the concentration of can be calculated if the concentration of is known. At the end of the titration‚ the moles of will equal the moles of and the pH is expected to be greater than 7 because the found in sprite is weak and is a strong

CHM1032L pre/post lab instructions Preparation is a key to success in this lab. For this reason‚ you are required to thoroughly read through the experiment information presented in the lab manual‚ and complete a pre-lab for each experiment you do. The prelab must be completed prior to the day of the experiment. Each Friday I will ask to see your completed prelab before I allow you to enter the lab. If you have not finished the pre-lab‚ I will not allow you to enter the lab and you will receive

was soluble in water as well‚ but it had a very low melting point. All the substances except for sodium carbonate did not pass the requirements‚ and therefore sodium carbonate is the best possible substance. In order to prove this‚ I conducted a lab to determine the solubility‚ conductivity‚ and melting point of each substance. First‚ I made sure to obtain a Bunsen burner‚ evaporating dish‚ ethanol‚ the four substances‚ distilled water‚ conductivity probe‚ wash bottles‚ test tubes‚ and a beaker

Organic Chemistry II Lab 9 Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose * Introduction Ethanol is one of the oldest alcohols and also the least toxic one. Industrially‚ ethanol is made most economically by hydration of ethylene. However‚ ethanol that is intended for human consumption must‚ by law‚ be prepared by fermentation. By either method‚ ethanol‚ of course‚ has the same formula‚ structure‚ and properties. The fermentation takes place with the assistance of enzymes from yeast
