Introduction Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with acetic anhydride was used in this experiement to synthesize 4-methoxyacetophenone with the use of a reflux apparatus. Friedel-Crafts reactions can be done by alkylation‚ which involves mixing an alkyl or acyl halide with a Lewis acid‚ or acylation‚ which is done with acid chlorides or anhydrides(Lefevre). Acylation was used because it does not have as many disadvantages aklyations reactions have such as polyalkylation‚ second electrophilic attacks

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 had 23%; and 1‚4-dichlorobutane had 9.34% per Hydrogen. Introduction Alkanes are relatively unreactive. There are only a few types

Analytes with lower boiling points would boil first and elute before analytes with higher boiling points. The two factors affect retention time‚ which is used to determine the identity of eluted compounds. For the experiment‚ the internal standard anisole was eluted before limonene because it was more polar and had a lower boiling

In this experiment‚ we used acquired observational data to develop an activity series describing the relative reactivity of the metals being tested. The elements within a periodic table often show different trends in physical and chemical properties depending on the period or group they are apart of. In a periodic table‚ elements are arranged by increasing atomic number in horizontal rows called periods. The atomic numbers represent the number of protons in each element. The periodic table is also

SOLVENT EXTRACTION Solvent extraction‚ also known as liquid extraction and partitioning‚ is a method to separate compounds based on their relative solubility in two different immiscible liquid‚ usually water and organic solvent. It is an extraction from one liquid phase to another liquid phrase. Liquid extraction is a basic technique in chemical laboratories‚ where it is performed using a separator funnel. This type of process is commonly performed after a chemical reaction as part of the work-up

each element reacts differently to its surroundings. The definition of reactivity as pertained to chemistry states‚ “The relative capacity of an atom‚ molecule‚ or radical to undergo a chemical reaction with another atom‚ molecule‚ or compound” (Reactivity‚ 2014). The reactivity of some elements or gases is greater than that of others. When Dmitri Mendeleev created the periodic table he arranged the elements based on their relative atomic mass. Alkali metals are very reactive when mixed with other elements

Discussion The reactivity series is a list of metals arranged in order of their reactivity based on displacement reactions‚ reduction of their oxides by hydrogen or carbon‚ the relative ease of decomposition of their compounds and reactions with oxygen‚ dilute acids and water. The higher up a metal is in the reactivity series‚ the more reactive it is. In the experiment conducted‚ the three metals‚ magnesium‚ zinc and copper each had to undergo displacement reactions and reactions with water‚ oxygen
