The objective of this lab was to prepare n-butyl bromide or n-bromobutane‚ which is derived from an alcohol and an acid. In this case‚ n-butyl alcohol and sulfuric acid were the reagents. There were two methods of distillation that was involved in this experiment. The first was by reflux distillation‚ which is used to speed up a chemical reaction without having the reactants/ products evaporate or explode. Data Table 1 indicates the amount of each reagents that was prepared for the reflux apparatus

Acetylene gas was used for the selective reactivity of hydrocarbons to functional group tests; Bayer’s test‚ Bromine test light‚ Bromine test dark‚ and Tollen’s test. In Bayer’s test‚ only Acetylene‚ Eugenol and Unknown hydrocarbon 2 reacted positively and the rest retain the purplish color of KMnO4. On the other hand‚ the five compounds in Bromine test with light reacted positively. In Bromine test dark‚ Hexane and Unknown hydrocarbon 1 did not react because light (UV) is absent. Lastly‚ in Tollen’s

chemical properties that were tested as this experiment was performed. Flammability test and solubility test were done to understand and compare the physical properties of the hydrocarbons. Several reactions such as Bromination‚ oxidation‚ and the addition of sulfuric acid were done to understand the chemical properties as well as the possible products that may form by each of the classification of hydrocarbons. Preparation of acetylene was also done in this experiment. The properties of the formed

alkane and an alkene Hypothesis: The cyclohexene would react to the bromine water and turn colourless‚ whilst the cyclohexane won’t react. Risk Assessment: What’s the problem? | How do you fix? | How does it work? | Bromine water is corrosive to the skin | Wear gloves | Stops the Bromine water from reaching skin | Cyclohexane/ene is highly flammable | Keep away from naked flames. | No naked flame = no ignition. | Bromine water is very toxic if inhaled | Conduct experiment in fume cupboard

chlorine or bromine atoms to form chlorine monoxide or other chemicals‚ which would deplete upper-atmospheric ozone. A seasonal decrease‚ or "hole‚" discovered in 1985 in the ozone layer above Antarctica was the first confirmation of a thinning of the layer. The hole occurs over Antarctica because the extreme cold helps the very high clouds characteristic of that area form tiny ice particles of water and nitric acid‚ which facilitate the chemical reactions involved. In addition‚ the polar

The atomic weights of oxygen‚ hydrogen‚ lithium‚ boron‚ carbon‚ nitrogen‚ silicon‚ sulfur‚ chlorine and thallium are now be expressed as intervals. b. Why is this addition important? Ratios of isotopes will differ depending on their source (air‚ biological systems‚ earth‚ etc.). The relative abundance of isotopes can help scientists figure out what the source of the element is. Currently the isotopic abundances

free-radical chain of chlorination of 1-Chlorobutne. Free radical-chains occur because alkanes are chemically unreactive with most agents. However‚ the free-radical chain allows a pathway of certain functional groups like alkyl chloride or bromides. In addition‚ chlorine atoms can possibly be made from molecular chlorine under low to mild conditions with the usage of a catalytic amount of an initiator. Sulfuryl chloride is used in this lab instead of molecular chloride for safety purposes. Free radical

The time it took for the bromine color to disappear was used to determine the order of reactivity of the different hydrocarbons. Data and Results The data of the 10 hydrocarbon tubes and the 2 control tubes with bromine and dichloromethane in the two different conditions is listed below in Table 1. As a result‚ the hydrocarbon tubes in light reacted and lost the bromine color quicker than the tubes not in light
