All the reagents and solvents used for synthesizing the title compound were of Analar grade (Merck) and were used as such without further purification. The 2-naphthol derived Mannich base 1-((4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)(phenyl)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol (MPN) was synthesized according to the general procedure described in the literatures [13‚ 14]. The 2-naphthol (4.33 g‚ 0.03 mol) was dissolved in 30ml of ethanol and it was mixed with N-methylpiperizine (3.0 mL‚ 0.03 mol) by continuous stirrer at room

Mabel M. Kimble September 21‚ 2014 Chemistry 234 Recrystallization of Benzoic Acid ABSTRACT The recrystallization of Benzoic Acid was performed to fully master the ability to purify a solid compound. This form of purification technique is especially important in chemical identification‚ where the melting point of the compound is taken to confirm its purity. In order to perform recrystallization a solubility test much be completed. Four solvents (95% Ethanol‚ Petroleum Ether‚ Acetone and distilled

Catalase Experiment Research Question: How does the weight of a piece of liver (0.4g‚ 0.8g‚ 1.2g and 1.6g in this case) affect the amount of gas created after 2 minutes when combined with hydrogen peroxide? Aim: To see find out how the amount of catalase correlates with the amount of gas created when in combination with hydrogen peroxide. Materials: 15g of liver 25 ml of hydrogen peroxide 1 scale 1 bucket 1 100ml graduated cylinder 1 250ml flask with bung 1 50cm tube (able to fix onto top of flask)

tablets. In the experiment they first tested how long an Alka-Seltzer tablet would dissolve in cold water ( 9 degrees) then repeated it two more times in order to calculate a mean. Then using a hot plate to heat the water‚ they tested another tablet in the hot water (51 degrees) to see how long it would take to dissolve and again did it two more times to calculate a mean. Finally they tested another tablet in water left on the hot plate for thirty-seconds (81 degrees)‚ preformed the experiment for two more

Abstract: This experiment will determine if jumping beans are alive. We tested two groups. Group A and B. We put them in two different areas. Three beans were put in a lit area and three were put in a shaded area. It was found that if the depending on how lit the area is the more movement we saw from the jumping bean. Therefore it can be said that jumping beans are alive and respond to stimuli. Introduction: This Experiment “ Mexican Jumping Beans” focuses on how jumping beans respond to different

RECRYSTALLIZATION AND MELTING POINT DETERMINATION OF BENZOIC ACID ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. How does the use of fluted filter paper hasten filtration? Why is it advisable to place a small piece of wire between the funnel and the mouth of the flask during hot filtration? Fluted filter paper is effective in preventing crystal formation in the filter paper. It is also often used in filtering hot saturated solution used during crystallization. One major advantage of a fluted filter is that it increases

called the Non-inverting input ( + ) which preserves the phase‚ and an output terminal. Figure below shows the standard symbol of an op-amp: There are many types of op-amp but its either operate as positive feedback or negative feedback. In this experiment‚ negative feedback op-amp is used at which there is a portion of the output that is fed back to the inverting terminal to establish the fixed gain for the amplifier. Any differential voltage across the input terminals of the op-amp is multiplied

Abstract The objective of this experiment was to observe multi-step purification of benzoic acid after performing the extraction from a mixture containing benzoic acid‚ cellulose‚ and methyl orange. Recrystallization was done to remove impurities from the sample. The amount of BA recovered during recrystallization is much less than the extracted amount of BA. The difference between the pure and impure samples was observed by comparison of melting points. It was found that impure samples will have
