aMicroscale Synthesis of Isopentyl Acetate (Banana Oil) Objective: Carried out the microscale synthesis of isopentyl acetate by direct esterification of acetic acid and isopentyl alcohol. This was an acid catalyzed Fischer esterification. Both extraction and distillation were employed to obtain a pure product. IR spectroscopy and gas chromatography were used to determine purity of the final product. Reagents: * Compound: | * MW (g/mol): | * MP (°C): | * BP (°C): | * Density (g/mL):

Cleansing Action of Detergents (Using Capillary rise) Synopsis This project report explains about the surface tension and capillarity of liquid through a simple experiment of finding the capillarity of various detergents. Oil stains and grease on dirty clothes cannot be removed‚ using water alone‚ because water does not wet them. If detergents added ‚ surface tension is decreased‚ the area of contact is increased. Detergent molecules have

Researchers chose to study and develop Coco-Banana cupcake to develop the process of producing Coco-Banana cupcakes through adding desiccated coconut and coconut meat as ingredient aside from banana to produce high quality of coco-banana cupcake. This study also aims to maximize the benefits of two of the most abundant fruit in the Philippines. Studies show that both coconut and banana can give a lot of health benefits and not just a cheap substitute for the

Preparation of Synthetic Banana Oil Introduction: In this lab the synthesis‚ purification‚ and characterization of isoamyl acetate‚ or banana oil‚ was determined. The synthesis was completed by a reversible esterification reaction which required the heating of glacial acetic acid and isoamyl alcohol‚ combined with a sulfuric acid catalyst in hexane. In order to increase the efficiency of the reaction‚ LeChatelier’s Principle is utilized by removing water from the products. As a result‚ the reaction

Surface Tension Properties of Liquids Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to measure and record the surface tension of water and other aqueous solutions using capillary rise method techniques and practicing lab safety. In this laboratory the surface tension of water depends on the concentration of the following solutes; NaCl‚ acetone‚ and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Intermolecular interactions as well as other phases (solid‚ or air) make a liquid exist. The data collected will show

Bananas The banana plant‚ or Musa acuminata‚ is one of the most important fruiting plants on Earth. This plant belongs to the Musaceae family‚ also known as the “banana family”. The genus Musa refers to “large herbaceous flowering plants” with fruit that is usually elongated and curved‚ with a yellow‚ purple‚ or red rind covering soft starchy fruit (Merriam-Webster). Banana plants are often mistaken for trees‚ because their “false stem” or pseudostem resembles a tree trunk. However‚ trees are dicots
