The purpose of this lab was to use gas chromatography to determine the relative amounts of the three components of gas products from the dehydration reaction of 1- and 2-Butanol with sulfuric acid and the dehydrobromination reaction of 1- and 2-Bromobutane with potassium tert-butoxide. E1 reactions are two-step unimolecular reactions. The first step of an E1 reaction occurs when a leaving group‚ which consists of a weak base‚ leaves an organic compound‚ leaving an intermediate carbocation. In the

OIL AND GAS ACCOUNTING: CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF THE APPLICATION OF THEORY TO PRACTICE IN NIGERIA 1.0 INTRODUCTION: The natural resources of a nation‚ particularly the minerals‚ often constitute the lion’s share of the nation’s wealth. This is particularly true of the OPEC nations including Nigeria. Prior to the development of accounting standards issued by the Nigerian Accounting Standards Board (NASB)‚ the financial statements published by the oil and gas industry in Nigeria did not disclose adequate

Gas chromatography (GC) is a chromatography technique where the separation of individual components (analytes) from a sample relies on their differing distribution between a mobile and stationary phase. The mobile phase carries the analytes through the stationary phase. In GC‚ it’s an inert gas (usually helium or nitrogen). The gas must be inert‚ so it won’t react with the sample to give a false reading. The stationary phase is a substance fixed in place to which the sample adsorbs because

ANALYSIS OF MOUTHWASH Background Information: Commercial mouthwashes are mixtures of water‚ alcohol‚ dyes‚ flavorings‚ and other compounds. In this experiment‚ you will use gas chromatography to determine the alcohol content of the mouthwash. Since the volumes of alcohol and water are not additive when mixed‚ a calibration curve must be used. It will provide the correction factor needed for alcohol-water mixtures. The calibration curve will be prepared by placing a known amount of alcohol

| Distillation is defined as: `Distillation is based on the fact that the vapor of a boiling mixture will be richer in the components that have lower boiling points.Therefore‚ when this vapor is cooled and condensed‚ the condensate will contain more volatile components. At the same time‚ the original mixture will contain more of the less volatile material. Distillation columns are designed to achieve this separation efficiently.Although many people have a fair idea what “distillation” means‚ the

Oil and gas conservation means their better and more efficient use with regard to economic‚ social or environment costs and benefits resulting minimization of wastage and protection of environment. A very high priority is attached by the government to conservation of petroleum products in view of the need to reduce increasing gap between demand for and supply of oil and petroleum products. Government has initiated various steps to promote conservation of petroleum products in the different sectors

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):
