Alum Synthesis: The Chemical Process of Recycling Aluminum Introduction By recycling aluminum cans‚ the costs and energy savings are dramatically more resourceful and efficient than producing aluminum from what it is naturally found in‚ bauxite ore. The process of recycling aluminum to produce potassium aluminum sulfate‚ a common alum‚ will be done through a serious of chemical reactions. Through this reaction‚ percent yield will be determined. Materials and Methods The mass of a 250 mL

Aldol Condensation: Synthesis of Dibenzalacetone Aldol Condensation: Synthesis of Dibenzalacetone Leah Monroe May 15‚ 2003 Organic Chemistry Lab II Experiment performed on May 6 and 8‚ 2003 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to synthesize dibenzalacetone via an aldol condensation reaction between acetone and benzaldehyde. This was done by mixing the two reactants with NaOH and ethanol‚ then allowing the reaction to sit for thirty minutes. The crystals were then washed with

component‚ its structure shall be determined by obtaining the melting point and by means of IR spectroscopy of the original substance. Experimental The experiment was carried out following the procedure described in Experiment 24 of the assigned lab book (Lehman 188-195) with some deviation: When it was time to use the condenser the first time around‚ the tubes for the water to circulate were not attached‚ causing the solvent to evaporate. Consequently‚ more solvent had to be added and the experiment

Old Dominion University ORGANIC 214 Alkene Addition Submitted by: Alkene addition: Bromination of (E) Stilbene Introduction: In this lab we used the greener approach‚ which involves the addition of bromine across a double bond. When bromine reacts with E-stilbene (trans-1‚2-diphenylethene)‚ two new chiral carbons are created from the sp2 carbons‚ therefore 3 different dibrominated stereoisomers are possible: meso-(1R‚2S)‚ or the raceminc mixture-(1R‚2R) or (1S‚2S)-dibromo-1‚2-diphenylethane

Abstract: The main objective of this Lab‚ is to experiment with stoichiometric measurements‚ since it is one of the most important subjects in chemistry. In addition‚ stoichiometric measurement is widely used in chemistry‚ because it indicates the proportion of mass in which various substances react. By examining one specific example of stoichiometric determination‚ which is: “Stoichiometry and limiting reacting”‚ we found out the different mass proportions in which substance react. In this case

Jacobsen’s Method of Epoxidation of an Alkene | | Abstract Various types of reactions were completed to first create and then use Jacobsen’s catalyst in the asymmetric epoxidation of an unknown alkene with bleach in the laboratory. The chiral epoxide synthesized was then characterized with GC/MS and NMR. With this information the unknown alkene was able to be identified as 4-chlorostyrene. Introduction Organisms have evolved with mechanisms that use specific enantiomers of molecules

the science lab. In science‚ we would participate in a lab. One of my favorite labs was the owl pellet dissection. Owl pellets are owl throw up. In owl pellets you can find the bones of animals the owl consumed. In this lab we were to take out the bones we found in the pellet and construct the animal we found inside. Most people‚ like me‚ had a sort of rodent‚ but some people found birds in their pellet. Another one of my favorite things we did in science was the Sharpie tie dye lab in fifth grade
