semester focuses on separating and identifying the components of Panacetin‚ which is a common medication that relieves pain. The label reveals that Panacetin is composed of sucrose (10%)‚ aspirin (40%)‚ and Tylenol (50%). Although this information is reported‚ the true composition of Panacetin is questionable. While sucrose and aspirin are present in Panacetin‚ Tylenol may be replaced by an unknown component (acetanilide or phenacetin). Separation of the components of a sample of Panacetin may prove valuable

Evaporation is one of the main methods used in chemical industry for concentration of aqueous solutions that means the removal of water from solution by boiling the liquor in a suitable type of evaporator and withdrawing the vapor (Coulson & Richardson‚1983). The objective of evaporation is to concentrate a solution consisting of non-volatile solute and a volatile solvent. In the overwhelming majority of evaporations the solvent is water. Normally‚ in evaporation the thick liquor is the valuable

the Extraction lab is to separate and purify benzoic acid‚ 2-naphthol‚ and naphthalene. These organic solids are purified by partitioning the solid in 2 immiscible solvents‚ diethyl ether and sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide. II. Significance a. The significance of the Extraction lab is to purify Acetanilide benzoic acid‚ 2-naphthol‚ and naphthalene by determining the partition coefficient. This value is determined by dividing the solubility of the given solute in the extraction solvent

aspirin‚ sucrose‚ and drug preparation. The purpose of this experiment was to determine the unknown component of panacetin. Panacetin contains aspirin‚ sucrose‚ and an unknown component. Dichloromate reacts with Panacetin to produce the sucrose as an insoluble solid. Aspirin is removed from the solution by reacting with sodium bicarbonate. The aqueous layer reacts with hydrochloric acid‚ the unknown component can then be isolated by evaporating the solvent from the dichloromethane solution.

An experiment to find the percentage of three separated components Research Question: Is it possible to separate salt‚ sand and iron filings from each other in a mixture‚ to figure out the percentage of each component in the original mixture? Background Research: In this Investigation‚ I will be separating sand‚ salt‚ iron fillings in a mixture and finding their percentages. Iron is a magnetic solid which is incapable of being dissolved in water. Salt is a non-magnetic solid which is capable

Constituent of “Panacetin” 9/15/2011 Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the unknown component of Panacetin. Theory: Panacetin is an analgesic (pain reducing) and antipyretic (fever reducing) drug that is sold in drug stores. However‚ there is a suspicion that this bottle may be counterfeit‚ not containing the chemicals that it should. Panacetin should be made up of about 50 percent of the unknown component that we previously separated out of Panacetin for testing.

EXPERIMENT 13： Extraction: Extraction with acid and alkali Objective 1. To recover the benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene from its mixture from its mixture by using acid-alkali extraction. 2. To determine the percentage recovery and melting point of the recovered benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene. Introduction Acid-base extraction is a process which purifying the acids and bases from mixtures based on their chemical properties. Acid-base extraction is performed to isolate the compounds and natural

Extraction Separation of a Carboxylic Acid‚ a Phenol‚ and a Neutral Substance Purpose The objective of the experiment is to identify the three substances in the mixture and to determine the percent recovery of each from the mixture. The unknown will consist of either benzoic acid or 2-chlorobenzoic acid‚ 4-t-butyl phenol. Determine the weight of crystals and also the percent yield Introduction There are various techniques of extractions‚ solid/liquid extraction‚ which

Objective: To extract caffeine from tea powder using polar - nonpolar solvent extraction technique. Theory: The technique used to separate an organic compound from a mixture of compounds is called Extraction. Extraction process selectively dissolves one or more of the mixture compounds into a suitable solvent. The solution of these dissolved compounds is referred to as the Extract. Here the organic solvent dichloromethane is used to extract caffeine from an aqueous extract of tea leaves
