Alvarenga Lab Partner: Keren Appiahene Mussie Gide 10 September 2016 Experiment 2: Acid- Base Extraction Separation of an Organic Acid‚ a Base and a Neutral Compound Introduction: The extraction technique is often used in the organic lab to separate organic compounds from mixtures. One type of an extraction technique is the acid-base extraction‚ which is used to separate organic compounds from a mixture based on their acid-base properties.1 There are certain principles that must be taken into account

08/02/2009 Synthesis of Acetyl salicylic acid (Aspirin) Abstract Introduction: The following report contains information on how to produce aspirin. The experiment has been carried out on a small laboratory scale. The experiment starts by combining such chemicals such as salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. The synthesis of aspirin is classified as an esterification reaction. This is a substitution reaction where the alcohol group from salicylic acid reacts with ascetic anhydride to form

Synthesis of Salicylic Acid and Potentiometric Determination of its Purity and Dissociation Constant ------------------------------------------------- Abstract The purpose of the study is to synthesize salicylic acid from the ester‚ methyl salicylate‚ and determine the acid’s dissociation constant and purity. The ester was converted to salicylic acid by base hydrolysis. The products were refluxed and recrystallized‚ to ensure maximum purity‚ and filtered‚ dried‚ and weighed. The melting point

To determine if the reaction had gone to completion‚ a Starch/Iodine test was conducted. A change in the strip to a deep blue color would signal an excess of sodium hypochlorite reagent present. An excess is the reagent symbolizes the end of the reaction because there is no longer any reactant left to consume reagent. After the reaction was deemed completed‚ the product was isolated and purified by ether extraction‚ aqueous extraction and evaporation. To determine how sodium hypochlorite acts as

Acid-Base extraction theory states that when an acid reacts with an organic base it results in a salt that is water-soluble and a neutral molecule that is insoluble. The addition of an acid to a mixture containing acids and bases will result in the acid remaining unchanged and the base reacting to form a salt. The results from the experiment were fairly consistent when separating the strong acid‚ weak acid‚ or the base. In part one of the experiment‚ you had to separate the strong acid. When added

Objective: The objective of this experiment is to use acid-base extraction techniques to separate a mixture of organic compounds based on acidity and/or basicity. After the three compounds are separated we will recover them into their salt forms and then purify them by recrystallization and identify them by their melting points. Procedure: Extraction of Carboxylic Acid A pre-weighed (0.315g) mixture of Carboxylic acid‚ a phenol‚ and neutral substance was placed into a reaction tube (tube 1)

The first part of extraction will be to separate the salicylic acid from the naphthalene using diethyl ether and aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The naphthalene will reside in the ether and be the top layer‚ while the salicylic acid resides in the sodium bicarbonate bottom

A salicylic acid-naphthalene mixture was mixed together with diethyl ether and saturated sodium bicarbonate. Two layers separated and were extracted after acidifying with HCl. This precipitated the crude salicylic acid. The left over mixture was combined with water and the two layers separated where crude naphthalene was recovered. Sublimation was used to
