Introduction Extraction is a purification technique used in organic chemistry to separate compounds from a mixture of two or more compounds. There are three different extraction techniques: liquid-liquid extraction‚ solid-liquid extraction and chemically active extraction. All three types of extraction follow the same principle. Organic molecules dissolve in organic solvents and polar molecules dissolve in aqueous solvents. This phenomenon is observed because of the intermolecular forces between

Running Head: Research Design Proposal and Data Collection Research Design Proposal and Data Collection Managerial Decision Making MBA/510 The team proposal is to research and collect data on the background of unleaded gasoline’s price fluctuations. This research proposal will help the team apply and analyze the collected data to better understand how gas prices work. When gas prices are on the rise it can be economically devastating. Therefore‚ business‚ government‚ and consumers always will

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Plastic is everywhere. It is commonly used as a packing material for foods or goods and other products. You usually see it as waste when you’re done using it. A waste that is harmful to the environment when it’s not disposed properly. This study will introduce you a new and best way to recycle plastic‚ specifically‚ Styrofoam. Styrofoam is a trademark of the Dow Company‚ but the material itself is called polystyrene. Like so many other plastics

Overview The paint and coatings manufacturing industry is one of the major chemical processing industries. The major environmental impacts of paints and varnishes are concerning their content of solvents and other chemicals. There is a need to encourage manufacturers to use less of these substances‚ and to ensure proper environmental management throughout the manufacturing process. Procurement of paints and varnishes is classified as having a high environmental profile and some risk of

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

Q1)- Green about this experiment: According to GCP#3 i.e. Less hazardous chemical synthesis: extraction of crude caffeine pose little toxicity to human health and the environment.(1) Q2) Things not green: According to GCP# 5 i.e. Safer solvent and auxiliaries: In liquid-liquid extraction of caffeine‚ Dicholoromethane was used which is a hazardous chemical and have potential acute health effects(2). According to GCP#12 i.e. Inherent safer chemistry for accident prevention: The separatory

Extraction is a method used for separating and isolating materials. A compound is pulled from solvent A to solvent B and in this case‚ both solvents are miscible. These two concepts are not capable of mixing together; when they are mixed together‚ they form a bilayer. This can be seen when mixing oil and water together. When thinking of extractions‚ one can picture how coffee gets extracted. The flavors‚ molecules‚ caffeine‚ etc. are extracted from the coffee beans. In this experiment‚ a solution

The purpose of the experiment was to perform an electrophilic addition reaction by the bromination of cinnamic acid. The product of this reaction is 3-Phenyl-2‚3-dibromo propionic acid‚ which is purified by recrystallization. Cinnamic acid (3-phenylprop-2-enoic acid) is an unsaturated carboxylic acid. The electron rich π cloud (see Figure 1) in the double bond of this structure is nucleophilic and can be considered a Lewis base. It can therefore be saturated by the addition of a halogen to the double
