An Oxidation-Reduction Scheme Nicolas Gibson Lab Time: Tuesday 11:30 am Abstract: In this experiment‚ the main objective was to synthesize a ketone from borneol via an oxidation reaction and secondly‚ to produce a secondary alcohol from camphor via a reduction reaction. Therefore‚ the hypothesis of this lab is that camphor will be produced in the oxidation reaction and isoborneol will be the product of the reduction reaction because of steric hindrance. For the oxidation step

9.1.1 Define oxidation and reduction in terms of electron loss and gain. Oxidation: the loss of electrons Reduction: the gain of electrons 9.1.2 Deduce the oxidation number of an element in a compound. Always determine elements that never change their oxidation number then ensure the charge of whole molecule is right. N.B. Atoms in elemental state have oxidation numbers of 0 9.1.3 State the names of compounds using oxidation numbers. Example of this in iron‚ can be iron(II) or iron(III) 9.1.4 Deduce

Period 1 11/7/13 Chapter 35 Discussion Background: Potassium permanaganate is widely used as an oxidizing agent in volumetric analysis. In acid solution‚ MnO4- ion undergoes reduction to Mn2+ this is the equation: 8H+(aq) + Mno4-(aq) + 5e- Mn2+(aq) + 4H2O Since the KMnO4 – ion is violet and the Mn2+ ion is nearly colorless‚ the end point titrations using KMnO4 as the titrant can be taken as the first pink color that appears in the solution (and stays without disappearing).

ACTIVITY SERIES The activity series of metals is an list of metals ranked in order of decreasing reactivity to displace hydrogen gas from water and acid solutions. It can also be used to predict which metals will displace other metals in aqueous solutions. In introductory chemistry‚ the reactivity series or activity series is an empirical series of metals‚ in order of "reactivity" from highest to lowest. It is used to summarize information about the reactions of metals with acids and water‚ single

Bleach Oxidation of 9-Hydroxyfluorene The purpose of this experiment was to oxidize an alcohol (9-hydroxyfluorene) to a ketone (9-fluorenone) using aqueous sodium hypochlorite (bleach) as the oxidizing agent‚ while introducing techniques used in microscale experiments. Reaction: Results 1. Recrystallized Product Yield Product yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100% 3mL 9-hydroxyfluorene x (1mL/1000mL) x (0.09 mol/L) = 2.7 x 10-4 moles 0.05g 9-fluorenone / (180.20g/mol) = 2.77 x 10-4

INTRODUCTION For this experiment we studied an oxidation-reduction reaction of magnesium and hydrochloric acid solution. We compared the experimental measured amount of a product and the amount predicted by the theoretical calculation of a balanced equation: Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) → MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g) PROCEDURE First we obtained a strip of pre-cut magnesium ribbon‚ cleaned it with steel wool to remove any signs of oxidation from the strip (which would alter our results)‚ and then weighed it (individual

The purpose of lab number thirteen was to examine the response of the daphnia to a chemical stimulant. Also examined was how human resting heart rates differed from the daphnia’s. Stimulants are any substances that raise the levels of activity in the body. Stimulants could be a number of things such as physical or chemical. Physical stimulus usually deal with something that affects the five senses such as sight‚ hearing these could be attributed to loud noises or too much light going into your eye
