Analysis – Synthesising Aspirin results After recrystallisation differences between the crude and purified aspirin were noted. The impure (crude) aspirin was powered and fluffy with small clumps and was slightly yellow in colour whereas the pure aspirin has a less fluffy crystalline powder and was whiter. This showed distinct differences in the two substances but similarities were also apparent showing aspirin‚ in some level‚ was created. Before recrystallisation the crude aspirin could of included

These are the way you could consider me as a FOB(Fresh off the boat-also a television series): I can only recite the alphabet If I started from A There are many words such as‚ “subtle” that I pronounce wrong and it usually results in my friends trying to correct me Whenever it comes to math‚ I do the mental math in chinese because I can’t recite the multiplication table in English I drive all the way to Rockville town center just to buy bubble tea Instead of using the dryer‚ I use the clothe hangers

Learning Activity 1 Preparation of Acetanilide Abstract Recrystallization is a common method of purifying organic substances through the difference in solubility at different temperature. In this experiment‚ acetanilide was produced by acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride. The crude acetanilide was dissolved in a solvent in a heating water bath. The solution was cooled slowly in an ice bath as crystals form out. As the compound crystallizes from the solution‚ molecules of other compounds

What is Aspirin? Aspirin is on of the first drugs to ever be commonly used and is still one of the most widely used in the world. How widely used you ask? Approximately 35000 metric tonnes are produced and consumed every year. Chemically aspirin is known as acetylsalicylic acid with the chemical formula of C9H8O4. Aspirin is an analgesic‚ anti-inflammatory‚ antipyretic‚ and is an inhibitor of platelet aggregation. The history of Aspirin Aspirin has been a major part of just about everyone’s

“Aspirin has been used for many years; it is well-understood‚ effective‚ inexpensive and widely available.” - Dr. Jeffrey Berger In the last 30 years medicines prescribed by doctors have changed beyond all recognition. Our better knowledge of the nature of diseases and their management has led to the replacement of many old remedies by new ones specifically designed for each illness. Everyone has known for years that

Today‚ aspirin is one of the most widely used medication on this Earth and has been since its popular breakout in the late 1890s. Long before we were born there was no such thing of a medication called aspirin. Instead‚ ancient people used willow leaves and bark from trees to help relieve oneself from pain and fevers. Aspirin as we come to know it in the form of an acetylsalicylic acid‚ was introduced to the world by Chemist Felix Hoffmann who was working at Bayer pharmaceutical company located in

synthesis of aspirin demonstrated here demonstrates several relevant suggestions that should be considered in the synthesis of a substance. Firstly‚ the recrystallization of a product should be performed if possible and relevant. In most reactions‚ the amount of product exceeds the impurities. As a result‚ the crystals of the product should form first by virtue of greater volume. The remaining solution will be left with a greater concentration of impurities. Secondly‚ melting point is a useful

The crude product (aspirin) was purified in the last lab‚ using recrystallization‚ in which we dissolved the crude product with hot ethanol. We then added 25 mL of water until the product reformed (the solution became cloudy white) and redissolved the solid with hot ethanol. The solution was allowed to cool for a week‚ and crystals of purified solid were formed. In order to analyze this purified product‚ we determined the melting point by placing a small sample of the aspirin in a capillary tube

PREPARATION OF TIN TETRAIODIDE 09/06/2012 Introduction The objective of this project was to prepare tin tetraiodide through the following reaction: Sn+2I2∆SnI4 and to measure the melting point of tin tetraiodide. Tin tetraiodide was recrystallized after the synthesis. The percent yield and the theoretical yield of tin tetraiodide were calculated. Recrystallization is to further improve the purity of tin tetraiodide. The solvent is carefully chosen to be toluene in order to maximize the recovery
