was to learn how to use salicylic acid to make aspirin. Aspirin is the most widely used over-the-counter drug in the world. The average tablet contains about 325 milligrams of acetylsalicylic acid with an inert binding material such as starch. Aspirin is used to relieve pain‚ reduce inflammation‚ and lower fever. Aspirin originally was derived by boiling the bark of the white willow tree. Although the salicin in willow bark has analgesic properties‚ purified salicylic acid was bitter and irritating

PREPARATION OF ASPIRIN AND DETERMINATION OF THE MELTING POINT Ferrer‚ Lara Melissa V. Faculty of Engineering University of Santo Tomas Manila‚ Philippines ABSTRACT This experiment involved three steps: synthesis of aspirin‚ isolation and purification‚ and the estimation of purity of the final product. The synthesis involved the reaction of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalyst‚ phosphoric acid‚ H3PO4. When the aspirin was prepared‚ it was isolated and filtered. The percentage

LAB 6. ACIDS AND BASES: PH AND BUFFERS PURPOSE: To determine the pH of common acids and bases using a pH meter‚ pH paper‚ and red cabbage indicator. To test the effect of adding an acid or base to a buffer solution. SAFETY CONCERNS: Always wear safety goggles. Wash with soap and water if skin contacts acids or bases. ACIDS: An Acid is a substance that when dissolved in water will produce hydrogen ions‚ H+‚ in the solution. An acid that does not contain carbon is called an inorganic

Acid Base Titration bre’ana March 1‚ 2013 Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the concentration of a solution of NaOH by titration with a standard solution of HCl. It was also the purpose to determine the concentration of a sample of white vinegar by titration with a standard solution of NaOH. Introduction: Using the method of titration is how the experiment gets to the conclusion of the concentration of a solution. When doing this experiment‚ measurement is very important

In Bauman’s “The Dream of Purity‚” the idea of social purity‚ as well as impurities to the said society‚ is discussed. One of the main disruptions to “purity” and prescribed social order is the introduction of a “Stranger”. Bauman says of the Stranger: the arrival of a Stranger has the impact of an earthquake. The Stranger shatters the rock on which the security of daily life rests. He comes from afar; he does not share the local assumptions - and so becomes essentially the man who has to place

Synthesis of Methyl Salicylate from Aspirin Esters are a class of organic compounds. An ester compromises an organic or inorganic acid in which one or more hydroxy (OH) groups have been replaced by and alkoxy (O-alkyl) group. For example‚ the simplest ester‚ methyl formate (CHOOCH3)‚ is made up of formic acid (CHO-OH) in which the hydroxyl group has been replaced by a methoxy group (-OCH3). Similarly‚ ethyl acetate (CH3CO-OCH2CH3) is made up of acetic acid (CH3CO-OH) in which the hydroxy group

Social purity feminist and new moralists had different beliefs and advocated for different things when it came to female sexuality. According to Bland‚ social purity feminists advocated that when it came to the women’s body they had every right to say no to all unwanted sexual advances‚ this included married women (Bland‚ 1983). They also advocated that a married woman should have the right to control conception of a child‚ they suggested one of two ways to do so and this was by either continence

BRONSTED-LOWRY ACIDS AND BASES 1. The Bronsted-Lowry definition There are many definitions of acids and bases in existence‚ but the most useful one is the Bronsted-Lowry definition: An acid is a substance which can behave as a proton (re presented as a hydrogen ion‚ H+) donor. Any substance which contains hydrogen bonded to a more electronegative element can thus behave as an acid: HCl == H+ + Cl- H2SO4 == H+ + HSO4- A base is a substance which can behave as a proton acceptor. Any

The purity of CO2 in a urea plant is strongly influenced by the absorption process‚ starting from operation temperature and pressure until the concentration of the absorbent material. All operating conditions must be maintained and adjusted to reach optimal condition which is 99% (v/v) of the purity of CO2. Therefore‚ it is necessary to have a model that can be used to obtain optimal operating conditions in the process of absorption. The purpose of this study is to develop a model for the calculation
