Experiment 5B: Ketone Reduction Objective: Using sodium borohydride as a reducing agent‚ the ketone 4-tert-butylcyclohexane is reduced to its corresponding alcohol. It is purified through extraction techniques to give the cis and trans diasteromer products. Procedure: The procedure was followed as outlined in Mayo’s book for Experiment 5B with the following modifications: 1. Reagents and Equipment – The reaction will be on a scale of 2X what is described in the text. 2. Reagents and Equipment

12-STANDARDIZATION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE Standard solutions for titrations are especially pure mixtures with exactly known concentrations. Primary standards are very pure solids. They have the advantage that they can be weighed (the analytical balance is normally the most accurate instrument in the laboratory) and they are stable under laboratory conditions. In this experiment‚ the primary standard is oxalic acid dihydrate‚ H2C2O4 ( 2H2O. It will be used to standardize a solution of sodium hydroxide

Part Ca)Up until the 1940’s rubber had only been obtained from the latex of rubber trees(Hevea brasiliensis) in plantations situated in tropical areas such as Malaya and Burma. The demand for rubber increased significantly during world war 2 as rubber was needed for tyres of military vehicles and the supply was interrupted by the conflict between the countries. Scientists in Germany and the US developed synthetic polymers that could replace rubber. Even after the war ended the traditional sources

eLearning 2009 Publication No. 91860 Rate of Reaction of Sodium Thiosulfate and Hydrochloric Acid Rate Laws Introduction The purpose of this demonstration is to investigate the effect of sodium thiosulfate concentration on the rate of reaction of sodium thiosulfate with hydrochloric acid. The reaction‚ which produces solid sulfur‚ will be followed by measuring the time needed for the reaction mixture to become opaque. The results will be analyzed graphically to determine the order of

Abstract The chloride present in an unknown soluble sample was precipitated into silver chloride through precipitation gravimetry. The colloidal silver chloride originally formed was converted to a crystalline solid by controlling certain parameters of the experiment such as temperature‚ pH of the solution‚ and concentration of AgNO3. Once the solid was large enough‚ it could be washed‚ filtered‚ and weighed. The percentage of chloride present was found to be 24.73695223 (±0.00000006) %.

Decomposition of Sodium Chlorate Mass‚ Moles‚ and the Chemical Equation Introduction: Sodium chlorate is used as a source of oxygen in emergency oxygen generators. So-called oxygen canisters or oxygen candles are found on airplanes‚ submarines‚ even the space station–anywhere where oxygen might be in short supply in case of an emergency. Sodium chlorate decomposes upon heating or in the presence of metals to give oxygen gas. What the chemical equation for the decomposition of sodium chlorate?

“The Synthesis of Zinc Chloride”‚ what a peculiar name for a lab that does not even involve synthesis. Synthesis‚ by definition‚ is when two elements are combined in a chemical reaction‚but that is not the case. In this lab we are combining zinc‚ an element‚ and hydrochloric acid‚ a compound‚ but combining a compound and an element is not synthesis‚ it is single replacement. We are taking zinc and hydrochloric acid and making zinc chloride and hydrogen‚ a single replacement‚ but what occurred during
