CHEM 2123 and 2125 – Organic Chemistry Lab I and II GUIDELINES FOR WRITING LAB REPORTS INTRODUCTION Writing reports in organic chemistry lab may differ from the way it’s done in general chemistry. One goal of this course is to introduce you to the record keeping methods used in research labs. Such methods are designed to organize experimental data in a format similar to that required for publication in major scientific journals. Here are some important considerations that apply in research settings

A) January 18‚ 2011B) Empirical Formula C) The purpose is to determine the empirical formula of a metallic oxide. D) Pre Lab Questions: After heating the metal‚ the crucible and contents should mass less than it did before it was heated. This is because heating the crucible may rid of other residue that was left in it; bringing it a to a constant mass. A yellow flame will deposit soot on the crucible. This would be a problem because the soot left on the crucible would vary from our constant

Introduction Chemical Kinetics‚ described as the study of rate of chemical processes‚ varies on many factors to determine the time needed for a reaction to complete. The rate of reaction of a chemical reaction is important‚ as reactions are of little use if the time period needed for the reaction to occur is too lengthy. Many factors influence the rate of a chemical reaction‚ such as temperature‚ concentration and surface area. The order of the reaction is based on the concentration of the reactants

IB1 Chemistry Practical #8 ANALYSIS OF ASPIRIN TABLETS For a long time the bark of the willow tree (salix alba) was used as a traditional medicine to relieve the fever symptoms of malaria. In the 1860’s chemists showed that the active ingredient in willow bark is salicylic acid (2-hydroxybenzoic acid) and by 1870 salicylic acid was in wide use as a pain killer (analgesic) and fever depressant (antipyretic). However‚ because it is a relatively strong acid‚ salicylic acid has the undesirable side effect

Liquid “X” and Liquid “Y” the same liquid? 5.What chemical reaction happened that made vapor during the combination of metal foil and Liquid “Z”? 6. What made the liquid turn darker in the combination of metal foil and Crystal “X” and Liquid “Y” solution? 7. What made up Crystal “X”? 8. Is Crystal “X” even a crystal? 9. What’s in metal foil that made it react to both the solution of Crystal “X” and Liquid “Y” and also Liquid “Z”? 10. What was this lab trying to teach us? 2. Write “educated guess”

string to a 50 g weight hanger and drape the string over the pulley. The string length should be such that‚ when one hanger hits the floor‚ the upper part of the other hanger is near the pulley‚ without touching the pulley. (You may find that the lab assistant has already set up the apparatus as described here. If so‚ double check the setup.) 2. Place equal masses of approximately 1000 g on each weight hanger. These masses should include four 5 g masses at the top of the left hanger. Hold back

Lab Report 2 Observations of Chemical Changes Objectives: (1 of 20 points) The objectives of this experiment are: 1. To observe some properties of chemical reactions 2. To associate chemical properties with household products Background Information: (2 of 20 points) Chemical changes are often accompanied by physical changes. Three that you should not see in this lab are changes in temperature‚ presence of a flame‚ and evolution of light‚ as when as firefly glows. Three physical changes that
