extraction from a mixture containing benzoic acid‚ cellulose‚ and methyl orange. Recrystallization was done to remove impurities from the sample. The amount of BA recovered during recrystallization is much less than the extracted amount of BA. The difference between the pure and impure samples was observed by comparison of melting points. It was found that impure samples will have a lower and wider melting point range. The experiment performed was important because it provides important knowledge

Recrystallization of Benzoic acid Chemistry 204-002 Date: 4/9/2011 Hector Ortega Recrystallization is a method used to purify compounds‚ and this is a very important procedure because compounds are naturally impure. Polarity and solubility play a big role in this experiment and these characteristics are exploited in order to have a crystallization of the desired compound. In this experimented benzoic acid was crystallize using ethanol and water. I chose these solvents based on part C of the experiment

1: MELTING POINT AND BOILING POINTS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS ABSTRACT The properties of organic compounds depend on their chemical structures. Intermolecular forces of attraction affect physical properties such as melting and boiling point. Through the Thomas Hoover apparatus‚ the melting point of 8 test compounds was determined. Salicylic acid exhibited the highest melting point while naphthalene‚ the lowest. The stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction‚ the higher the melting point. Boiling

benzyl ring functional groups. This is a dehydration reaction that occurs twice in order to form the diene. After obtaining the product‚ via vacuum filtration‚ it will be recrystallized and then analyzed for purity by determining both products’ melting point. The two products will be compared.

Boiling Point Lab Introduction: The purpose of this lab is to learn about the calibration of a thermometer. In addition‚ we also investigated the boiling point of an unknown liquid to determine its identity. Chemical Responsibility: 1. Make sure to use glycerine (lubricant) and a towel to safely insert the thermometer into the rubber stopper. 2. Carefully operate the Bunsen burner and make sure to use rubber gloves when handling the boiling water of beaker 3. Always wear goggles

Objective: Separate and purify acetanilide from a mixture by recrystallization. Compare the melting points of crude and recrystallized acetanilide. Introduction : The most common method of purifying solid organic compounds is by recrystallization. In this technique‚ an impure solid compound is dissolved in a solvent and then allowed to slowly crystallize out as the solution cools. As the compound crystallizes from the solution‚ the molecules of the other compounds dissolved

Recrystallization of Benzoic Acid Objective To purify benzoic acid by recrystallization and gain experience with a basic organic laboratory techniques. Background Products of chemical reactions are often contaminated with impurities. One method for purifying chemicals‚ recrystallization‚ takes advantage of the differences in the solubilities of the desired products and the impurities and the tendency for the slow formation of crystals to exclude impurities from the crystalline solid.

However‚ nothing crystallized due to an excess amount of each solvent. For the second part of the experiment‚ approximately 25 mL of distilled water was combined with 1 g of salicylic acid and it took 6 mL of water to dissolve the sample at the boiling point. When it was crystallized‚ the product was almost white to colourless and it formed needle-like crystalline structure. DISCUSSION The effect of polarity on interactions between the molecules was the focus of the first experiment. For the compounds
