Title: Preparation and isolation of an Ester Aim: To make an ester and purify it Background Theory: Esters are derived from carboxylic acids and alcohols with the presence of a catalyst. A carboxylic acid contains the -COOH group‚ and in an ester the hydrogen in this group is replaced by a hydrocarbon group of some kind. Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)is used as a catalyst for this reaction in order to accelerate the rate at which the product is formed. The general formula of an ester is RCOOR’ in

This report will cover the adaptations relating to gas exchange in insects‚ fish and mammals. These all have different gas exchange systems but work in similar ways. All the animals studied have the same characteristics in order for them to be able to work properly. Overview The gas exchange system is the process in which oxygen enters the cells of many living animals. Some factors that affect how efficient a gas exchange system is are things such as the distance that the molecules have to go before

Name: Aaron Banks Section: Thursday PRELAB: A MODEL FOR CIRCUITS I: ELECTRIC CURRENT 1. What do you predict for the rankings of the brightness of bulbs A‚ B‚ and C in Figure 2-1? A>B>C A being the brightest 2. How do you predict that changing the direction of the current by reversing the connections to the battery in Figure 2-1 would change the rankings in (1)? I don’t think it will change at all. The brightness should be the same in diagram b and diagram a it should also stay

Experiment 12: Calorimetry and Hess’s Law Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine the enthalpy of reaction for the burning of one mole of magnesium in oxygen. Although the reaction is exothermic‚ the ∆HRXN will be determined by using calorimetry and then using Hess’s Law to manipulate the data collected to yield the answer needed.

Enthalpy change of magnesium in combustion Rui Shen Chemistry 4U – Ms .Brazier 2/28/2013 Introduction: Hess ’s law is a terminology in chemistry named after Germain Hess‚ a Swiss-born Russian chemist and physician who published it in 1840. The law states that the total enthalpy change during the complete course of a reaction is the same whether the reaction is made in one step or in several steps. Enthalpy cannot be directly measured‚ but rather the change in enthalpy. Enthalpy is described
