Synthesis of Cyclohexanol Author: Ahmed Ayyash 06/06/13 Introduction: In this experiment‚ cyclohexanol was prepared from an initial cyclohexene. However‚ this occurred over a number of steps‚ these are out lined below. 1. Cyclohexene + aqueous acid cyclohexyl cation 2. cyclohexyl cation + hydrogen sulphate + water protonated cyclohexanol + cyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate 3. cyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate protonated cyclohexanol + HSO4 4. protonated cyclohexanol + HSO4

P-Nitroaniline is also used in gum inhibitors‚ poultry medicines and as a corrosion inhibitor. [2] Nitration is a type of chemical reaction which a nitro group is added to or substituted in a molecule. It can be carried out by a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid. Mixture is useful to obtain the active nitronium ion. Electrophilic aromatic

Sucrose Synthesis by D. DeWitt‚ PhD v1.5 11/10/12 Introduction | Condensation Reaction | Plant Synthesis | A. Introduction Although it might seem straight forward‚ the synthesis of sucrose‚ either as a simple condensation reaction (a.k.a. dehydration synthesis)‚ or what actually happens in plants is complicated. Before we explore sucrose’s creation‚ let’s take a look at its structure. In Figure 1‚ the space-filling model is pretty but rather useless at this point in our journey. We

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.

to attain the minor degree in IFE. He estimated that it would involve an additional cost of RM40‚000. HOW WOULD THE MONEY GROW? Not knowing how exactly he should grow the money‚ Afiq Firash contacted his cousin (Rauf) who is an engineer with an oil and gas company in Sabah for advice. Without hesitation‚ Rauf suggested an IPO (initial public offering) of Felda Global Venture Holdings (FGVH)‚ which wass already opened for subscription since 31 May 2012. Right after the phone call‚ Rauf sent emails

It is an over-the-counter drug that relieves pain and reduced fevers. Acetaminophen is considered an alternate to aspirin since it does not irritate the stomach (Richman‚ 2004). It also has very

The conventional method was conducted by placing 2.0641 grams of salicylic acid in a dry 125 mL Erlenmeyer flask. In a fume hood‚ 4 mL of acetic anhydride and 5 drops of concentrated sulfuric acid were added to the flask. The contents were swirled in the flask and then heated for 20 minutes in a hot water bath. After the 20 minutes were up‚ 10 mL of cold water were added in 1 mL increments. The flask was cooled for 10 minutes and occasionally stirred. The crystals that formed were collected via filtration

Fats and oils - 344 Iodine value of an edible oil INTRODUCTION Fats and oils known as triglycerides contain long chain hydrocarbons with carboxyl groups (COOH groups). These fatty acids are classified into the number of double bonds present in the fatty acid. When the carbon atoms in these chains are bounded to the maximum possible number of hydrogen atoms‚ the triglyceride is said to be saturated. When one or more double bonds exist between carbon atoms in the chain‚ less hydrogen exists

COCONUT OIL AND ITS MEDICINAL EFFECTS Edible oils are found in large amounts in our daily diets hence adding up to a great amount of fatty acids in our system. Examples are in our stews‚ some soups‚ several rice dishes‚ fried or grilled meat and fish. Many have thus perceived that oil has been the cause for several of the ailments that have plagued and still plague our race‚ especially heart disease and other related cholesterol issues (Blonz‚ 1991).Nature gives the best source of oils‚ such as
