Aldol Condensation Formal Abstract: An aldol condensation reaction was performed on acetophenone using p-anisaldehyde and sodium hydroxide as a base. This produced trans-p-anisalacetophenone in the form of a fluffy yellow crystal. The reaction was performed in a test tube and sodium hydroxide was added drop by drop followed by recrystallization and vacuum filtration. In order to verify the presence of the ketone 2‚4-dinitrophenylhydrazone was synthesized and reacted with trans-p-anisalacetophenone

containing salt‚ sand‚ and benzoic acid can be separated using the separate components’ solubility properties (ability to dissolve in water). Because it is known that organic compounds (such as benzoic acid) are very soluble in organic solvents‚ a hexane: ethanol mixture was used to dissolve the acid. Also‚ because it is known that sodium chloride dissolves in water‚ water was used to dissolve the NaCl. Along with separating the components of a heterogeneous mixture‚ the percent recovery of each substance

The solvents that were used in the experiment were ethanol and water to extract the seeds of moringa (Moringa oleifera) and the pods of soursop (Annona muricata) with a ratio of 1:50 and 1:10 and a concentration of 50‚ 100‚ 150 and 200 μL.

• Bioethanol – it used as an alternative to gas‚ it is ethanol produced from plants such as sugar cane. • Combustibility –pertains to how easily a BIT will set on fire. • Density- the quantity of mass per volume. • Distillation – is a chemical process of separating two liquid components that have different boiling points. • Ethanol –colorless volatile flammable liquid. • Fermentation – it is a process that converts sugar into acids‚ gases or

fermentation in a batch culture was simulated using a dynamic model consisting of mass balances for glycerol‚ ethanol‚ biomass‚ and 11 intracellular metabolites‚ along with the corresponding kinetic expressions for the metabolism of each species. The model was then used to calculate metabolic control coefficients and elucidate the control structure of the pathways involved in glycerol utilization and ethanol synthesis. The calculated flux control coefficients indicate that the glycolytic flux during glycerol fermentation

Introduction: The question investigated in this lab was which drugs have the greatest and least affect on the pulse of the Lumbriculus variegates. Ethanol will cause the worms to become inactive‚ caffeine will cause the worms to become overactive‚ and nicotine will cause the worms to become more active. Lumbriculus variegatus is also known as black worm. This small species of worms currently lives in North America and Europe within marshes and ponds. They survive by eating microorganisms and organic

the amounts of ethanol that humans would need in order to keep up with the demand of our lifestyle. North America would need all crops to be specifically corn for ethanol production. This would lead to food prices sky rocketing. The second reason why this is not an efficient alternative is because its costs more than petroleum to produce. And the third reason why ethanol is not a useful alternative is because a new engine would need to be created so that it could run on pure ethanol. This is because
