RADICAL HALOGENATION AND GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY Abstract In radical halogenations lab 1-chlorobutane and 5% sodium hypochlorite solution was mixed in a vial and put through tests to give a product that can then be analyzed using gas chromatography. This experiment was performed to show how a radical hydrogenation reaction works with alkanes. Four isomers were attained and then relative reactivity rate was calculated. 1‚1-dichlorobutane had 2.5% per Hydrogen; 1‚2-dichlorobutane had 10%; 1‚3-dichlorobutane

Friedel-Crafts Acylation of Ferrocene and Column Chromatography Introduction: The intention of this lab is to analyze the formation of acetylferrocene using column chromatography. The Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction created acetylferrocene and diacetylferrocene‚ using phosphoric acid as a catalyst for the reaction between acetic anhydride and ferrocene (once applying heat). During column chromatography‚ a solution is passed through a filtration system of silica‚ sand‚ and cotton. This creates

Characterization is key to how authors build characters in literature. This is how authors can bring characters to life in a reader’s mind. These characters are then used by authors to show a theme in a story. In the case of To Kill a Mockingbird‚ the author‚ Harper Lee‚ is using the character of Atticus to reveal a theme. The theme of To Kill a Mockingbird is the world’s destruction of innocence. This is seen portrayed through Atticus through the story. In To Kill a Mockingbird Atticus can be seen

Title: Principles and Practice of Agarose Gel Electrophorsis Objectives: To detect the size ‚ shape and charge of the each dye solution. Methods: Casting the Agarose Gel In this experiment .8% solution was used. By using a 250ml flask the buffer solution was prepared. Using the equation to make enough solution for the intire lab class the equation had to be multiplyed by five. The contents of this equation were added to the 250ml flask and swirled to evenly distrubute it contents

How does the process of gel electrophoresis separate DNA fragments? It uses an electric current to separate different-sized molecules in a porous‚ sponge-like matrix. 2. What is the purpose of the agarose gel? It is used to separate DNA molecules that range in different lengths. 3. What is the purpose of adding blue “tracking” dye to the DNA samples? The blue tracking dye is added to help load the samples easily and helps able to see the DNA moving through the gel. 4. Explain why DNA has an
