II. Experimental Procedure : In a flask‚ 0.081 mol of 2-methycyclohexanol and 3 mL of 85% H3PO4 were mixed. The mixture was boiled under a fractional distillation column‚ and 7 mL of the distillate was collected. The organic and aqueous layers were separated and the organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The product was analyzed using GC. III. Conclusion: In this experiment‚ 2-methylcyclohexanol was mixed with phosphoric acid with heat‚ to produce 3 isomers in one solution

process didn’t help to separate any layers‚ just made the product look turbid. Due to this I added a couple drops of water that helped the product to separate its layers. Conclusion: SN2 reactions are substitution reactions that are performed in organic labs. In this experiment 1-butanol was converted into 1-bromobutane by an SN2 reaction. The ending result of the experiment was to test if the product was correct by using a flame test that colorizes the product. The flame test turned green which

Prospect Introduction A. Background of the study A plastic is a type of synthetic or man-made polymer; similar in many ways to natural resins found in trees and other plants. Webster’s Dictionary defines polymers as: any of various complex organic compounds produced by polymerization‚ capable of being molded‚ extruded‚ cast into various shapes and films‚ or drawn into filaments and then used as textile fibers. Plastics are durable that is why most of the stuffs we see nowadays are made from

IS PLASTIC BAD FOR THE ENVIRINMENT? A plastic material is any of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic solids that are moldable. Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass‚ but they often contain other substances. They are usually synthetic‚ most commonly derived from petrochemicals‚ but many are partially natural. Whether you are aware of it or not‚ plastics play an important part in your life. Plastics’ versatility allow it to be used in everything from car

Glacial acid is also a very corrosive compound and can cause severe burns when it’s reacting with aromatic compounds. Also‚ the organic waste was disposed in the halogenated waste container. Procedure: In a reaction tube‚ 0.05 g of acetanilide is added and the exact mass is recorded. In the same reaction tube‚ 8 drops of glacial acid is added carefully inside the hood‚ and stirred

INTRODUCTION Hydrocarbons are organic compounds that consist of only C and H atoms. They include the alkanes‚ alkenes‚ alkynes‚ and aromatic hydrocarbons. Because of their relatively non-polarity‚ all hydrocarbons are insoluble in water. When hydrocarbons burn in sufficient oxygen‚ carbon dioxide and water are the sole products. The main structural difference among hydrocarbon families is the presence of double or triple bonds between carbon atoms. The alkanes are saturated organic compounds‚ or those with
