-1Determination of an Unknown Liquid (2-butanol) Through Fundamental Analysis Lee Billips Department of Chemistry‚ Shippensburg University‚ 1871 Old Main Drive. Shippensburg‚ PA‚ 17257. Abstract: The identification and characterization of unknowns are an important part of organic chemistry. It is fundamental to know experimental methods to deductively identify compounds (1) . The determination of unknown #6 (2-butanol) was identified by a series of test; first taking the boiling point (94-96

Purpose: I will identify an unknown liquid by obtaining an average density & boiling point for my liquid and comparing them with the known densities & boiling points of liquids in the CRC handbook of Chemistry & Physics. I will perform these experiments using three different measuring tools (graduated cylinder‚ burette & pipette) to evaluate the precision of each one. Results: Density 1‚ 2 & 3 calculated by using graduated cylinder to obtain volume. Density 4‚ 5 & 6 calculated by using volumetric

Chemistry Lab Report Purpose The purpose of this lab is to determine the identity of an unknown liquid by measuring its density and its boiling point and try to match it with those solutions given in Table 2 of experiment 2. Procedure Part A In Part A‚ The main purpose was to find the determination of the density of the unknown (j41) and by doing that we had to determine volumes of the unknown liquid (j41) using three different volumetric devices which are graduated cylinder‚ pipette and

Calculating the Density of Liquids II. Purpose/Background: The purpose if this lab was to determine the density of water and an unknown liquid. Density is defined as the mass of a substance divided by its volume. It is an intrinsive property of matter and is used to specifically characterize substances. III. Procedure: 1.We massed an empty 10mL graduated cylinder to the nearest .01g. 2.Then‚ we filled the graduated cylinder with 4.0-5.0 mL of distilled water‚ 3.massed it to the nearest 0.1

However‚ the original manufacturer‚ Kaufmann Ltd.‚ has gone out of business‚ and specifications for the part are unavailable. The purpose of this experiment‚ performed by Ryan Nelson‚ Peter Glascor‚ Eric Flowr was to determine the identity of the unknown polymer by comparing its properties to properties of other known polymers. Most likely‚ the part is one of the five following polymers: polyethylene‚ polypropylene‚ polystyrene‚ polycarbonate‚ poly(vinyl chloride). These are all extremely common

Lab: Comparison of Three Isomers of Butanol Pre-lab: 1. Write the general reaction of an alcohol and HCl. 2. What would the solubility be of an alcohol in water. 3. What would the solubility be of an alkyl halide in water? 4. What is the purpose of KMnO4 in the reactions? Safety: Concentrated hydrochloric acid is corrosive and the vapour is very irritating to the respiratory system. Avoid contact with skin‚ eyes‚ clothing‚ and the lab bench. Wear eye protection and a lab apron.

Lab Protocol #8 - Dehydration of 3‚3-dimethyl-2-butanol KEYWORDS: alkenes‚ E2‚ E1‚ carbocation stability‚ elimination A. Introduction. The dehydration of alcohols is an ELIMINATION reaction that is commonly used to form alkene molecules. The mechanism for the dehydration of alcohols consists of transforming the –OH functional group into a better leaving group by using a strong acid to protonate the alcohol. After –OH has been transformed into –OH2+‚ it becomes easier to break the σ-bond between the
