PREPARATION OF ASPIRIN AND DETERMINATION OF THE MELTING POINT Ferrer‚ Lara Melissa V. Faculty of Engineering University of Santo Tomas Manila‚ Philippines ABSTRACT This experiment involved three steps: synthesis of aspirin‚ isolation and purification‚ and the estimation of purity of the final product. The synthesis involved the reaction of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalyst‚ phosphoric acid‚ H3PO4. When the aspirin was prepared‚ it was isolated and filtered. The percentage

The Purity and Purification of Solids Recrystallization ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ impure adipic acid is purified though recrystallization. The impure adipic acid is dissolved in a solvent. After cooling it is ran through a vacuum filter to separate any moisture. The dry crystals are then weight for percent yield and the melting point range is taken to test the purity. There were two different trials ran in this experiment. The difference between the two was the addition of charcoal in

The book “Purity of Heart” is a composition of letters written by the founder William Booth. Originally‚ these letter were shared in weekly Salvation Army gatherings to help Salvationists continue in Holiness‚ then later they were put in book form. Holiness is viewed as synonymous to a “pure heart; this is define in chapter eight‚ by William booth. The book is divided in ten chapters that are interrelated and build upon each other. It begins by defining purity of the heart in general terms. Next

EXPERIMENT #1: THE PURITY AND PURIFICATION OF SOLIDS MELTING POINTS ABSTRACT Melting points of different mixtures of naphthalene and biphenyl were examined in this lab. Samples of these various mixtures were collected and tested by different individuals in the lab in order to find the eutectic point of biphenyl. Unknown substances were then tested using the mixture melting point method in order to determine their identities. INTRODUCTION The melting point of a solid is the temperature

The Purity and Purification of Solids Melting Points CH-337 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to find the eutectic point for the mixture of naphthalene and biphenyl. This was done by measuring the melting point of both pure substances and five mixtures of different ratios. The purpose of the second section was to identify an unknown sample by measuring its melting point and mixing it with two known substances and comparing them. The results suggest that the eutectic point is closest

The Fight for Food Purity Economic Botany September 29‚ 2013 Michael Pollan’s film‚ The Botany of Desire‚ opened my eyes to the complicated relationship between people and plants. Pollan opened up with the following statement: “Flowers. Trees. Plants. We ’ve always thought that we controlled them. But what if‚ in fact‚ they have been shaping us?” (Pollan‚ PBS) I paused the film and took a few minutes to let this soak in. I was always under the impression that we
