Samantha Smith Organic Chem 255 Lab M/W 12:30-4:30 Hyejin Cho 12 June 2013 Separation of a Mixture Abstract: In this experiment‚ the three processes of extraction‚ sublimation and recrystallization will be used to separate a mixture of salicylic acid and naphthalene. The first part of extraction will be to separate the salicylic acid from the naphthalene using diethyl ether and aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The naphthalene will reside in the ether and be the top layer‚ while the

Separation Techniques If one component of the mixture has magnetic properties‚ you can use a magnet to separate the mixture. Cobalt‚ iron and nickel all have magnetic properties. Note that not all metals are magnetic and magnetism is not a method to separate metals from non-metals. Gold‚ silver and mercury are examples of non-metal substances. Magnetism is however a way to separate magnetic substances from non-magnetic substances is. Magnetism as a separation method is done by taking any magnetic

Separation of Mixtures 9/11/11 * Introduction: A compound is a pure chemical substance consisting of two or more different chemical elements that can be separated into simpler substances by chemical reactions. Unlike a compound‚ a mixture is a material system made up by two or more different substances which are mixed together but are not combined chemically. There are two kinds of mixtures‚ homogeneous and heterogeneous. Homogeneous mixtures have the same composition and appearance throughout

Abstract By separating chemicals out of a mixture and purifying them through sublimation and recrystiliation‚ changes in the substances physical properties can be shown. A salicylic acid-naphthalene mixture was mixed together with diethyl ether and saturated sodium bicarbonate. Two layers separated and were extracted after acidifying with HCl. This precipitated the crude salicylic acid. The left over mixture was combined with water and the two layers separated where crude naphthalene was recovered

The objective of this experiment is to become familiar with the methods of separating substances from one another using decantation‚ extraction‚ and sublimation techniques. Most materials in our surroundings are mixtures of two or more substances in which each substance retains its own chemical identity and therefore its own properties. Mixtures are either homogeneous or heterogeneous. Mixtures that don’t have the same composition

Experiment 1 Separation of Mixtures Summary of Principles: Most of the materials we encounter in everyday life are not pure substances. Many materials such as sand are formed from physical combination of various substances‚ and are called mixtures. Mixtures can be classified into homogeneous and heterogeneous. The purpose of this lab is to learn how to separate individual components from a mixture through decantation‚ filtration‚ distillation‚ and crystallization. Pre-Lab Questions: Attached

Separation Lab Purpose: This lab was based on the separation of the components of a mixture. A mixture can be defined as a physical combination of two or more pure substances. Separation techniques are used to separate components that are not chemically combined. All of these techniques involve changes in the physical state of a chemical compound rather than chemical changes. Sea sand‚ table salt‚ and two other unknown substances will be separated using the separation techniques in order to demonstrate

09/18/2012 09/19/2012 Title: Separation of Mixtures and Solids Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to practice the process of separating mixtures of different solids. Procedure: This experiment consisted of different processes to separate a mixture of solids into the four individual solids: sand‚ benzoic acid‚ iron fillings‚ and sodium chloride. To remove the iron fillings from the mixture I used a magnet and scanned it across the entire mixture and the magnet forced picked up

Separations of the Components of a Mixture January 9‚ 2013 Hailey Rounds Partners: Kelsy Shay Katie Nelson Objectives: The purposes of this experiment are to separate two components in a mixture‚ specifically sodium chloride and silica‚ and find the correlating percent composition of each. Abstract: This experiment consisted of the separation of sodium chloride and silica. The mixture was separated by extracting the sodium chloride with water and drying both substances. Adding water to
